Honest John Review John Sidwell

February 24, 2015 Gambling / Tipsters No comments

Created by John Sidwell, Honest John is an independent horse racing tipster service that sends out selections directly to users email.

What is the product?

In Honest John, John Sidwell has put together a fairly typical tipster service fundamentally. Selections are issued directly to subscribers via email, typically before 11am (it is worth noting that there is also an SMS service in the works). The actual selection process that Honest John uses isn’t discussed in any detail at all really however there are a few snippets of information that provide some insight. It would appear that selections for Honest John  come from a system based around statistical and form analysis as John Sidwell  sends out analysis of all his selections. There is also a strong element of extracting the best possible value with Honest John very rarely recommended odds of less than 3.0 with odds on rare occasions coming in at over 20.0.  Honest John has been operational in some form since 2013 however John Sidwell unfortunately fails to provide any proofing for these years however he does say that Honest John has a focus on obtaining a strike rate of 25% to 30%. Based off my calculations, it is just about performing at the moment with a strike rate of 26% to date. Read more

Top Tennis Tips Review

February 24, 2015 Gambling / Tipsters, General Reviews No comments

Top Tennis Tips is a tipster service that specialises in providing its subscribers with tennis bet selections made by a specialised AI.

What is the product?

Top Tennis Tips is definitely a tipster service with a difference in so much as all the selections allegedly come from a specialist artificial intelligence. This artificial intelligence has allegedly been filled with information about in excess of 400,000 professional tennis matches from the past. These appear to have bene from ATP, WTA and ITF games which are what selections are for (no that ITF selections are only available to Premium Top Tennis Tips subscribers). Top Tennis Tips interprets this data and produces a percentile chance of a given outcome with higher percentages being the selections that you should back. As I have touched upon there are two different packages which primarily change the number of selections that Top Tennis Tips will generate each day for you. The Basic package will generate around 50 selections from ATP and WTA games that Top Tennis Tips will calculate per week as having a 70% chance of winning. Meanwhile the Premium Package will generate 350 per week. As well as providing you with the selections that Top Tennis Tips identifies, you can also develop your own betting system which you can then back test to see how it would have performed. In terms of proofing and results, there aren’t actually any supplied as you are essentially making the choice yourself as to which games you want to back and with over 8000 to date this year, covering all possibilities is not really a viable option Read more

Automatic Winners Review Michael Stevens

February 23, 2015 Betfair, Gambling / Tipsters No comments

Offered by Michael Stevens, Automatic Winners is a piece of software that is able to identify winning horses for races from across the world.

What is the product?

Automatic Winners is a downloadable piece of software that is able to allegedly produce winning horse racing selections 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, all with a 98% success rate. Furthermore, Michael Stevens says that this only requires a few minutes of your time each day to generate selections and that you don’t have to do any maths to find selectons, nor are there any formulas or codes to use. Unfortunately, there is no actual explanation for how Automatic Winners makes its selections which given the claimed figures are so high doesn’t actually surprise me at all (for reasons that I shall explore below). Much of the how’s about Automatic Winners are dismissed by Michael Stevens with him only really saying about the software that it uses a scientifically proven method to make selections and that the software analyses odds from “the most important races around the world”. Unfortunately this doesn’t actually do anything to explain how Automatic Winners works and most of the information surrounding it coming into his hands come from a rather fanciful tale about him receiving it for winning a settlement for a client whilst he worked as a lawyer.

Betting Revenue Review

February 23, 2015 Gambling / Tipsters, General News No comments

Betting Revenue is an investment opportunity in which the team behind the service use sports betting with investor’s capital to produce a profit.

What is the product?

Despite being based predominantly around sports betting, Betting Revenue is presented as a bonafide investment as opposed to the standard tipster service or betting system that is usually attached to betting. With a team of around 30 people behind him in a variety of roles, co-founder of Betting Revenue Arialdo Gerbasi claims that Betting Revenue works based on tweaking things to get to the current setup. Essentially this involves people working for Betting Revenue in a number of different roles that range from attending matches to monitor the very latest to bookmakers and even insiders for teams. The betting focus for Betting Revenue  lies in obscure games with the service claiming that you won’t have any clue about 90% of their bets. Interestingly, they also claim that some bets cover games that are fixed, namely in Eastern European leagues. The service is advertised as being ideal for those who have no prior knowledge of sports betting in any capacity as they do the work for you. Unfortunately there are no details or statistics made available to calculate an actual strike rate, however it is claimed that Betting Revenue has had 30 positive months in a row. Read more

Pro Betting Club Sequence Lays Review

February 23, 2015 Betfair, Gambling / Tipsters One comment

Offered as a part of the Pro Betting Club, Pro Betting Club Sequence Lays is a lay betting service that provides horse racing tips to subscribers.

What is the product?

Pro Betting Club Sequence Lays is a rather typical lay betting tipster service and unfortunately there isn’t that much more that you can say about it. There is very little information supplied on the selection process which is rather concerning given its strike rate which stands at just 68% which is definitely on the low side for a lay betting service. The only insight that the Pro Betting Club Sequence Lays team give as to the selection process is that they lay short priced runners and that there is a very “specific method” in place. In terms of numbers, Pro Betting Club Sequence Lays provides 1-2 selections per day which have average odds of 2.92. Staking is based on level stakes however there is a loss recovery system in place which can very quickly add up over, even over the 3 losses in a row which has been the maximum that Pro Betting Club Sequence Lays has exposed users to so far (albeit on a number of occasions).

Goal Bet Formula Review Winning Network

February 23, 2015 Gambling / Tipsters, General News No comments

Offered under the Winning Information Network brand of tipster services, Goal Bet Formula is a football based tipster service that predicts goal scorers for games.

What is the product?

Offering selections throughout the week (with the vast majority falling on weekends), Goal Bet Formula isn’t too different from most football services on the surface of things. Once you start to examine the bets that are offered however, it becomes apparent that Goal Bet Formula uses a betting method that I’ve never seen before in a sports betting service. The Goal Bet Formula Team make selections for players to be either first goal scorer or to score during a game with selections drawing on analysis of games in immaculate detail according to Winning Information Network. There is still value in this kind of betting with Goal Bet Formula frequently obtaining odds of 3/1 or 4/1 on bets that you would say have a very reasonable chance of coming in. That having been said, because you are betting on very specific outcomes there are plenty of losing bets suggested by Goal Bet Formula. This high risk, high yield approach involves following the staking advice of the Goal Bet Formula Team which ranges from staking one point per game all the way up to 5 points per game. Read more

Stable Race Winners Review Paul Price

February 22, 2015 Gambling / Tipsters, General News, General Reviews No comments

Created by Paul Price, Stable Race Winners is a horse racing tipster service that offers daily selections betting using level stakes.

What is the product?

Providing daily selections for horse racing across the UK and Ireland, Stable Race Winners is an email based tipster service. Bets are level stakes and are generally backing horses to win at odds of between 1.7 and 21. Paul Price sends out selections directly to Stable Race Winners subscribers around 7am typically. Unfortunately Paul Price doesn’t reveal a strike rate for Stable Race Winners but a look at the results show reasonably frequent 10 or more losing streaks. Given the process that Paul Price says that he went through to find the right selection process for tips, this is a little off putting. Over a 12 month period Paul Price claims to have trialled 40 different horse racing betting systems. Of these, 7 were allegedly proofed for a further 6 months before 3 were identified as long term winners. Stable Race Winners now uses these systems as the basis for all selections. Read more

Lay the Draw Professor Review Ebenezer Appa

February 22, 2015 Gambling / Tipsters, General Reviews No comments

Created by Ebenezer Appah, Lay the Draw Professor is a tipster service that specialises I providing lay betting tips for football games. A Betfair account is a requirement.

What is the product?

Lay the Draw Professor is a new tipster service that provides selections based around the creator Ebenezer Appah’s system. Selections for Lay the Draw Professor are not a daily occurrence but when there is a tip available Ebenezer Appah will usually upload it to the Lay the Draw Professor and send out an email notification. Selections are made following a specific set of rules which involves (not surprisingly) laying the draw on certain games. These are any games whereby the Betfair lay odds are between 4 and 8.5 with betting occurring in play should the odds shift correctly. From what I have seen so far, selections for Lay the Draw Professor are not based around any specific leagues although it looks like Ebenezer Appah prefers to avoid some of the bigger games to maximise the value of the bet.

Quentin Franks Racing Review

February 22, 2015 Betfair, Gambling / Tipsters No comments

Created by Quentin Frank and offered under the Tipster Warehouse umbrella, Quentin Franks Racing is an email based horse racing tipster service.

What is the product?

Quentin Franks Racing is a horse racing tipster service that whilst relatively new, shows a degree of promise with no losing months since its inception. Quentin Frank sends out selections for Quentin Franks Racing on a daily basis with between 80 and 90 selections in a month (working out at 2-3 tips per day) with odds ranging from 2.0 all the way up to 28.0. Stakes are advised at either 1 or 2 points. All of this has come together to produce a rather mediocre strike rate of 25.95%. The selection process is rather unfortunately not detailed with the closest to information that we get on this being a statement by Tipster Warehouse that Quentin Frank has experience and insight into horse racing and that he has been a long time professional bettor.

National Hunt Banker Bet System Review Matt Clemence

February 21, 2015 Betfair, Gambling / Tipsters No comments

Created by Matt Clemence, National Hunt Banker Bet System is a betting system for national hunt races. The service comes with an option to directly receive selections.

What is the product?

National Hunt Banker Bet System is provided as a PDF guide, written by Matt Clemence that can be downloaded directly to your PC. The sales material for National Hunt Banker Bet System is rather on the scarce side (with the exception that you will need access to the Racing Post) when it comes to information which I personally find to be a disappointment. What information is made available primarily pertains to the numbers surrounding the system such as the alleged 80+% strike rate and the fact that users can expect to identify between 12 and 15 bets per month. Interestingly, based off the information that National Hunt Banker Bet System provides the strike rate should come in at a touch over 77% which is a worrying point. That having been said, Matt Clemence does have a pretty decent reputation having launched The Professional Syndicate with considerable success. Users also have the option to sign up to receive selections directly to their phones via SMS. Read more
