The Inside Man – Results Update

It’s been a better time lately for football tipster The Inside Man, with a profit of 6 points made since our last update.

That means they are now 59 points up for our trial overall.  

You can view full results here. 

We mentioned in previous updates about player passes making up a large proportion of the bets but these have decreased in recent times and there are now a greater variety of bets. These include Asian handicaps, corner handicaps, both teams to score, shots on target, bet builders and a number of other markets. 

A good variety of bookie accounts would still be preferable for following the service but it is no longer so reliant on Bet365.

The Inside Man – Results Update

3rd January 2025

Not a great deal of change for football tipster The Inside Man recently, with a loss of just 2 points made since our last update.

That means they are now 60 points up for our trial overall.  

You can view full results here. 

As mentioned previously, quite a few of the tips (around a third) are player passes bets, which you will need bookie accounts for – and specifically Bet365 if you want to match the advised number of passes on the specific player.

You can still follow the service without the player passes bets, but the profit would be somewhat reduced.

So if you did those in accumulators or multiples you would have done very nicely. 🙂

The Inside Man – Results Update

16th January 2024

More solid progress for football tipster The Inside Man lately, with 4 points profit made since our last update.

That means they are now an impressive 60 points up for our trial overall.  

You can view full results here. 

It’s worth noting that you should be able to place most of the bets with this service at the exchanges as they are in main markets such as match odds, Asian handicap, total goals etc. 

However, some of the bets are in the “player passes” market which is not available on the exchanges and requires bookmaker accounts.

More specifically, in some cases these bets are only available at Bet365 (with both the appropriate player and spread being available). 

So looking at the player passes bets in isolation, there have been 156 in our trial to date (out of 454 total bets), producing a profit of 40 points. 

Just something to bear in mind if you are looking at following the service, as having a Bet365 account to place the player passes bets is a significant advantage.

Not much change lately for Football tipster The Inside Man, with just the 1 point profit made since our last update.

That means they are now 56 points up for our trial overall.  

You can view full results here. 

It’s been feast or famine for this service lately, with a run of four out of five winners, then four and a half out of five (the half win being an Asian handicap), then four losers in a row.

So if you were doing accas or multiples of the tips then it would have worked out nicely. Otherwise taking the tips as they are advised, in singles and occasional doubles, it’s been a roughly break-even month.

The Inside Man – New Review

15th October 2022

We are starting a new review today of a football service called The Inside Man. 

This one comes from the Bet Chat stable of tipsters and has been around for a couple of years. 

The tips are provided by a guy called Adam Cheng, who worked at bookmaker Fitzdares and became head of football trading. This role saw him not only work on the side of the bookmaker, but also as a trader for the company on football markets, making additional profits. 

He decided in early 2020 to go full-time as a professional gambler and has been doing pretty well since. 

The results published on the Bet Chat website show a profit of just under 100 points made so far, at a return on investment of 10%

The strike rate is very solid at 51%, meaning at least half the bets so far have been winners. 

There are a variety of different markets used including first goalscorer, Asian handicap, total goals, corners, player passes and more. 

We’ve been on the lookout for a profitable new football tipster and the results from this one look promising. 

So let’s see how they get on in a live trial. Results will be updated regularly here as we go along.

In the meantime you can check out The Inside Man for yourself here.

Trade On Sports Tennis – Results Update

It’s been a good start to our trial of Trade On Sports Tennis, with a profit of 14 points made to advised prices so far, based on laying each selection to win one point. 

You can view full results here.

Taking an alternative staking approach of laying to a one point liability, they are 27 points up so far.

Just a reminder these are lay bets in the match odds market, which are sent out via Telegram.

Please note these results go back to last August when we started proofing and cover the WTA only as historically those have performed a lot better than the ATP results.   

Also please note the red lays are available under the Silver Tennis subscription of TOS.

Trade On Sports Tennis – New Review

28th January 2025

We are starting a new review today of a tennis betting service called Trade On Sports Tennis (or Trade On Tennis if you prefer the slightly shorter version).

Regular followers will know we have tested out quite a few of Trade On Sports (TOS) strategies over the years, including a number in our main review back in 2020.

Whilst we have mainly focused on their football strategies, some of their most impressive results have actually come in tennis. 

There is a huge amount of data available as part of their tennis service, including the Trade on Sports model price and the players projected hold & break numbers. These are match-up specific, so change daily depending on who the opponent is. All of this data can be used to trade and bet on tennis.

However, the most impressive part of their tennis betting service for us – and what we will focus on in this review – are their “red lays.”

These are their selections for players to lay based on a rating system they have developed. 

These ratings are based on factors such as: 

  • Expected hold
  • Service break opponent
  • Break back chance
  • First to lead
  • First broken

They cover both the ATP and WTA tours, although looking at past results the WTA results have been much better so those may be the ones to focus on. 

The selections are sent out via Telegram and you simply lay the player named. Couldn’t be much simpler than that! 

The WTA results for 2024 showed a profit of 28 points if laying to win 1 point, or 46 points if laying to lose a fixed liability of 1 point. 

Going back further, the results show a profit of 118 points from 2016 to 2023, or 236 points if laying to lose a fixed liability of 1 point over the same period. 

These are very impressive and consistent results over a long period of time, a true mark of quality. Particularly so when you consider they are in highly liquid main match odds market of ATP and WTA matches, and bets can be placed on Betfair. 

To be honest we haven’t seen many tennis services with better long-term results so without wanting to jinx things, this is a review we have been meaning to do for a while and are pleased to finally be carrying out. 

As long-term members of TOS we have proofed these tennis bets going back to last summer, so we will include those results in our trial. 

We will also have a look at odds availability, as always. 

So we will get the review underway today and will report back here soon on how things are going. 

In the meantime you can check out Trade On Sports Tennis for yourself here.

(Just to note in case you were wondering, the red lays are available under the Silver Tennis subscription of TOS). 

 

 

All-Weather Winners – Results Update

It’s been a mixed time for horse racing tipster All-Weather Winners over the last month, with a loss of 2 points made at advised prices since our last update.

That means they are now 6 points up at advised prices for our trial overall. 

You can view full results here.

At Betfair SP however they have made 2 points profit since our last update, putting them 13 points up for our trial to date at BSP.

Just a reminder this is a service from renowned tipster Mel Gee, who also runs First Class Racing (and previously Second Class Racing) as well as a number of other horse racing services down the years. 

So a decent start here being up at both advised prices and BSP, with the latter actually performing better to date.

So he has plenty of pedigree and that is showing through in our trial so far. 

 

 

 

———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————-

All Weather Winners – New Review

23rd December 2024

We are starting a new review today of a horse racing service called All-Weather Winners

This comes from renowned tipster Mel Gee, who regularly visitors may be familiar with from his other services First Class Racing and Second Class Racing (although the latter has recently been discontinued). 

The latest offering from Mel focuses solely on all-weather racing, as you may have guessed. 

Results to date have been promising with over 50 points profit made since starting in March of this year.

That means anyone following the selections would have made £502 profit from small £10 stakes.

Or to £20 stakes the profit hits four figures, at £1,003.

Which is pretty damn good considering it’s a relatively high strike rate strategy, with a recommended bank of just 40 points.

Tips are sent out via Telegram and there is also a chat group for those who to wish engage with the community of followers. 

We started receiving tips on 12th December so will record results from then. Results will be updated here as usual so you can see how things are going.

In the meantime you can check out All Weather Winners for yourself here.

 

Trade on Sports: American Football Ratings & Bets – Results Update

It’s been a good end to the season for Trade on Sports American Football Ratings & Bets, with a profit of 4 points made since our last update.

That means they are now 32 points up for our trial overall. 

You can view full results here.

These results are for both the NFL and NCAA (which you can see on the second tab of the spreadsheet) and are for the whole 2024-25 season. 

They made a nice 4 points profit on the Superbowl, to end the season with:

  • 18 points profit for their NFL tips; and
  • 14 points profit for the NCAA tips. 

So an excellent season across both codes and a really impressive achievement to have made such profits in markets that are notoriously hard to find an edge in. 

We will place the review in abeyance now for the off-season but will pick things back up again when the new season kicks off in the summer.

Trade on Sports: American Football Ratings & Bets – New Review

You can view full results here.

These results are for both the NFL and NCAA (which you can see on the second tab of the spreadsheet) and are for the whole season so far. 

They are up 14 points for both codes, showing a good level of consistency. 

Not long to go this season but hopefully they can finish the season off in style. 

(Just to note these bets are available under the “TRADE ON RATINGS & BETS MEMBERSHIP” currently priced at £14.95 every 4 weeks).

Trade on Sports: American Football Ratings & Bets – New Review

22nd November 2024

We are starting a new review today of an American football tipping service from the Trade on Sports team – also known as their “Ratings and Bets” service.

Long-term members may be familiar with Trade on Sports (or TOS for short), as it’s a platform we have sung the praises of quite a lot over the years since our original review of it back in 2019-2020.

For those who aren’t familiar with the service, TOS is a platform run by a group of professional traders & bettors and covers a range of sports including football, tennis, cricket and US sports.

There is a huge amount on offer and we covered a lot of it in our original review. We are also now separately trialing their “Pinny Bot” which is a football betting system based around price differences between Betfair and Pinnacle.

Additionally we want to take a direct look at their American football tips as the results have been very impressive.

In our original review, they made 72 points profit at a return on investment (ROI) of 22% from 327 bets. 

Last season the NFL bets made a small profit of 3 points, whilst this season they are going very well with a profit of 14 points made for the season to date.

On top of that, the NCAA (that’s college football in case you are not familiar with it) tips have also made 10 points profit for the season. 

That’s all to one point level stakes which is highly impressive when you consider how notoriously hard it is to achieve an edge over the bookies when betting on American football. 

As long-term members of TOS, we have proofed these results and can confirm their accuracy but we wanted to run a formal review to track the results in real time and keep an eye on odds availability.

So we’ll kick things off today and will report back here as usual so you can see how they are getting on. 

In the meantime you can check out Trade on Sports’ “Ratings and Bets” service for yourself here.

The Footy God – New Review

3rd July 2024

We are starting a new review today of a football tipster called The Footy God. 

This is a tipster on the Betting Gods platform and they have been tipping since the start of the year. 

They mainly tip in the Asian Handicap and over/under markets and bet on leagues from all around the world. 

Results to date look very promising, with a profit of 79 points made so far to 1 point level stakes. 

The strike rate has been incredibly high at 74% and the return on investment equally as impressive at 46%. 

We’d be very surprised if they maintain those numbers in the long run as normally for footy service an ROI around 10% is considered top-notch over the long term. 

If they can remain profitable however and keep churning out winning months as they have done so far (6 out of 6) then it would be a notable achievement. 

So we will kick off the review today and will report back soon on how things are going.

In the meantime you can check out The Footy God for yourself here.

 

 

 

 

Back of the Net – Results Update

It’s been a good month for football laying service Back of the Net, with a profit of 4 points made to advised staking since our last update.

That means they are now 14 points up for our trial overall using advised staking (which is a form of adjusted Fibonacci – i.e. betting 1pt, 1.5pt, 2pt, 2.5pt, 3pt, 4pt, 5pt, 6.5pt etc until you hit a winner and then starting again).  

You can view full results here.

To one point level stakes (i.e. laying each selection to win one point), they have made a profit of 3 points since our last update, meaning they are now 15 points up for our trial to date at 1 point level stakes. 

So it looks like level stakes are a more favourable option here for following these picks, both from a profitability/ROI standpoint and from a simplicity/risk perspective.

Just a reminder, this is a service that sends out automated alerts via e-mail for lay the draw bets in-play late on in football matches.

In previous updates we have mentioned our concerns about price availability and we have been tracking the prices we have been able to achieve in the second tab of our results spreadsheet.

One thing that we do note is that for the picks that are not available on Betfair, the effective odds available at the bookies (i.e. by backing both teams to win) do not appear to offer value as the effective odds are significantly higher for those selections. 

For those matches that are available on Betfair, we are still recording higher odds than the official ones, but given the overall profits achieved the service should still be worth following – it’s just that the profit would be somewhat lower than the official results.

 

 

 

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————-

Back of the Net – Results Update

30th January 2025

There has been a slight drop for football laying service Back of the Net over the last month, with a loss of 5 points made to advised staking since our last update.

That means they are now 10 points up for our trial overall using advised staking (which is a form of adjusted Fibonacci – i.e. betting 1pt, 1.5pt, 2pt, 2.5pt, 3pt, 4pt, 5pt, 6.5pt etc until you hit a winner and then starting again).  

You can view full results here.

To one point level stakes (i.e. laying each selection to win one point), there was no change to the net P/L since our last update, meaning they are still 12 points up for our trial to date at 1 point level stakes. 

Just a reminder, this is a service that sends out automated alerts via e-mail for lay the draw bets in-play late on in football matches.

In previous updates we have mentioned our concerns about price availability and we have been tracking the prices we have been able to achieve in the second tab of our results spreadsheet. 

So far these show we have been getting an average of 0.09 ticks worse than the official results. However, we do need more data on this before drawing any conclusions so will continue tracking available odds going forward.

Back of the Net – Results Update

30th December 2024

A slight step backwards lately for football laying service Back of the Net, with a loss of 2 points made to advised staking since our last update.

That means they are now 15 points up for our trial overall using advised staking (which is a form of adjusted Fibonacci – i.e. betting 1pt, 1.5pt, 2pt, 2.5pt, 3pt, 4pt, 5pt, 6.5pt etc until you hit a winner and then starting again).  

You can view full results here.

To one point level stakes (i.e. laying each selection to win one point), they have made 1 point profit since our last update and are 12 points up for our trial to date. 

Just a reminder, this is a service that sends out automated alerts via e-mail for lay the draw bets in-play late on in football matches.

In our last update we noted some issues with odds availability, with some of the draw odds being considerably higher on Betfair than the advised odds contained in the e-mails from Back of the Net. 

It is worth noting that in their official results, they do record the lay odds as around 10 ticks higher than contained in their e-mail, which seems reasonable. 

We have started tracking the available odds in games where we are able to (which you can see in the second tab of our results spreadsheet) and sometimes they are more than 10 ticks higher than the e-mail and a few ticks higher than the official results.

However, generally it only seems to be a few ticks higher than the official results so in the main it shouldn’t make too much difference to your overall results. It is something we will aim to keep tracking in any event.   

It is also worth noting that in their official results they exclude any wins where a goal was scored within 5 minutes of the alert being sent out, which is pretty fair of them and means you could wait a few minutes for the odds to tick down a bit before taking the lay bet. 

Generally odds availability seems to be more of an issue in low-liquidity matches than in the big games, which is understandable really given lots of people are queuing up to place lay bets on the draw.

In any event, as we say we don’t think the odds availability is a huge issue but just something to keep an eye on moving forward.

Back of the Net – Results Update

19th November 2024

It’s been a good start to our trial of football laying service Back of the Net, with a profit of 17 points made so far to advised staking (which is a form of adjusted Fibonacci – i.e. betting 1pt, 1.5pt, 2pt, 2.5pt, 3pt, 4pt, 5pt, 6.5pt etc until you hit a winner and then starting again). 

You can view full results here.

To one point level stakes (i.e. laying each selection to win one point), they are 11 points up so far. 

Just a reminder, this is a service that sends out automated alerts via e-mail for lay the draw bets in-play late on in football matches.

We have noted some issues with odds availability so far, with some of the draw odds being considerably higher on Betfair than the advised odds contained in the e-mails from Back of the Net. 

This may be due to weight of money from subscribers to Back of the Net all entering the market at the same time and pushing the odds out – particularly on some very illiquid markets that the bets are sometimes in. 

In any event, even allowing for this the results have been so good you would still be well up so far.  

Also just to note that most of the selections are to be laid on Betfair but there is the occasional one that isn’t available on the exchanges. In such cases you can just use the bookies and back the home and away teams to win.

Back of the Net – New Review

15th October 2024

We are starting a new review today of a football betting service called Back of the Net (or Back of the Net Profit Bundle to give it its full title).

This is a service from Andrew David who regularly readers may know from Little Acorns fame.

Little Acorns is a horse racing betting system that Andrew developed over 10 years ago and has won multiple awards over the years, including our very own Best Horse Racing service a few times.

So Andrew knows what he is doing and we are always keen to hear about anything new he is developing.

Well his latest offering, Back of the Net, uses in-play data and statistics to identify lay the draw opportunities late in football matches.

The system uses filters that consider multiple factors, indicating when a goal is likely.

When it finds an opportunity for the deadlock to be broken in a game, subscribers receive an alert by e-mail.

The alerts come with clear step-by-step instructions, making it easy to follow, even for beginners in lay the draw betting.

Typically, the lay prices of the selected bets range from 1.40 to 1.70, meaning liabilities are low.

Since launching in May 2023, the reported results for Back of the Net are impressive, with over 70 points profit made using a modified form of Fibonacci staking.

Fibonacci staking, in case you are not aware, is where you bet 1 point, then 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21 points and so on until you either hit a winner or keep losing until the sequence is completed. Either way you go back to the beginning.

They use a slightly modified form of the sequence, but the process is the same.

For someone staking £25 per point using their Fibonacci staking, that equates to over £1,750 in profit.

The strike rate has also been strong, standing at a notable 41% so far.

Crunching the numbers from their results spreadsheet, our calculations are that the selections would have produced around 50 points profit at level stakes aswell, which is very good indeed. 

So for those who find Fibonacci staking a little hair-raising, it looks like level stakes have also worked well.  

All in all then this looks like a very promising service and we are eager to put it through its paces under a live trial. 

We have been receiving alerts for around a week now so will record results from when we started receiving alerts and will update things here as we go along. 

In the meantime you can check out Back of the Net for yourself here.

Racing Riches – New Review

16th September 2024

We are starting a new trial today of a service called Racing Riches.

The service is provided by a guy called Richard (Rich) Luck who has over 20 years experience in the horse racing industry.

He says he is in almost constant contact with several leading figures within the industry.

And he uses this information together with this own expertise to deliver horse racing tips to his members. 

So far the service has made over 110 points profit at Betfair SP (BSP) since starting out in November 2023. 

That has been achieved with a solid strike rate of 23% and a return on investment (ROI) of 10%.

The profits this year have been impressive, with over 133 points profit made for 2024 to date. 

Those are very good numbers to have achieved at Betfair SP, which as we have noted many times here is a very tough yardstick to make a profit at.

All but one month so far this year has been profitable so they have been showing a strong record of consistency. 

Tips tend to be sent out between 10am and midday on the day of racing so a decent amount of time to get the bets on. 

Overall this looks like a promising service and one we are looking forward to running a trial of. 

We started receiving tips on 3rd September so will record results from then and will update results here as we go along as usual. 

In the meantime you can check out Racing Riches for yourself here.

 

 

Football in goal

Goal Predictor – Results Update

It’s been a good month for football betting tipster Goal Predictor, with a profit of 30 points made since our last update. 

That means they are now 33 points up for our trial overall. 

You can view full results here.

As a reminder, this is a service that involves using xG (expected goals) data to provide tips on the goals markets (such as over 2.5 goals and both teams to score).

Just to note they use stakes of 5 points per bet so the net P/L based on 1 point stakes would be just over 6 points for our trial to date. 

Good to see the recent improvement here – let’s see if they can keep it going.

Just a reminder, this is a service that involves using xG (expected goals) data to formulate tips on the goals markets (such as over 2.5 goals and both teams to score).

Liquidity in these markets is very good so there is no problem getting bets matched. 

So it looks a promising service, let’s see if they can get the profit ticking up by the time of our next update.

Goal Predictor – New Review

8th November 2024

We are starting a new review today of a football betting service called Goal Predictor

This is a service that comes from the Phil Rushton stable of betting services that includes the likes of the Goal King that received a positive rating following a review here

Goal Predictor is a service involves using xG (expected goals) data to formulate tips on the goals markets (such as over 2.5 goals and both teams to score) and to give customers a profitable service with a high win rate.

Expected goals, in case you are not familiar with it, is a statistical tool that relates the number of shots to how many goals would be expected in a football match. We explain more about how it works here.

For example if a team had lots of shots on goal and had a xG number of 3.0 but only scored one goal, it might suggest they were unlucky and on another day could have scored more goals. 

The results for the service look very promising so far, with 263 points profit reportedly made since starting tipping in April. 

That has been achieved with a high strike rate of 69% and a healthy return on investment of 22%.

xG has become used more often in football betting these days and this service aims to make use of it specifically on the over/under goals markets. 

We can see the logic behind using xG as it is a useful metric to measure teams’ performance by rather than just their match results, which could mask runs of good or bad luck. 

Whether it can produce results under live trial conditions we will have to wait and see but that is why we run reviews here, to test these things out. 

So we will kick off the review of Goal Predictor today and will report back here on how things are going as usual. 

In the meantime you can check out Goal Predictor for yourself here.

Ultimate Racing Naps – New Review

10th October 2024

We are starting a new review today of a service called Ultimate Racing Naps.

This is a horse racing tipster from the Betting Gods stable and they have been tipping for just over a year now. 

In that time they have made an impressive return of 188 points profit.

That has come at a strong return on investment (ROI) of over 20% and with a strike rate of 40%, which are very good metrics when taken together. 

The tips are provided by a chap called Harry who has decided to limit the service to a maximum of 150 members in order to protect prices. 

That’s a good move in our opinion and shows admirable professionalism and a desire for his members to be able to achieve the prices he recommends (or close to them). 

There are just one or two bets per day making it a pretty simple service to follow and the average odds of the tips are 5.46. 

Staking is either 1pt win or 3pt win bets, but no 2pt win bets which is a little unusual – we are not quite sure why. 

In any event, the results so far look very promising and this does seem to be a proper service. 

Let’s see if it can produce the goods under live trial conditions though as many services have looked promising prior to our trials but then failed to deliver.

So we will get things underway today and will report back here soon on how they are getting on. 

In the meantime you can check out Ultimate Racing Naps for yourself here.

 

Blue Chip Naps – Results Update

It’s been an excellent month for horse racing tipster Blue Chip Naps, with a profit of 11 point made at advised prices since our last update.

That means they are now 13 points up for our trial overall at advised prices. 

You can view full results here.

The Betfair SP results are running just slightly behind those at advised prices, with 10 points profit made since our last update and 8 points profit made for our trial overall at BSP. 

We have been impressed with the results of this service so far. Although the total profit might not be huge, it is important to note that these are high strike rate bets (42% strike rate so far) at fairly low odds (average 3.0), where making an ROI of 25% as they have done is a significant achievement. 

With high strike rate bets like these losing runs tend to be shorter and you can build a bank quite quickly when things are going well. 

So it’s a trial we are following with interest. If they can maintain these metrics going forward then this could be a really top racing service.

Blue Chip Naps – New Review

29th August 2024

We are starting a new trial today of a horse racing service called Blue Chip Naps

This comes from the Matthew Walton stable of tipsters. Matthew has a keen eye for tipping talent and we always take note when he introduces a new tipster. 

Some of the top services we have reviewed here including the Golf Insider, Racing Intelligence and the Irish Cash Consortium are all from Matthew’s stable so he knows how to find a good tipster.  

The latest one to be introduced to his stable, Blue Chip Naps, is relatively new, having been tipping since April this year. 

As the name suggests, this is a service that focuses on selective, high class horses, generally at short odds – like “Blue Chip” stocks, these are the cream of the crop.

The P/L so far stands at 16 points since starting up in mid-April. 

The service aims to achieve a high strike rate and so far has done that, with 44% of the selections having been winners. 

The return on investment (ROI) has been particularly strong at over 30% and every month so far has been a winning one. 

The tipster is apparently a full-time professional with 20+ years of experience who has access to industry contacts but also conducts their own in-depth form analysis. 

We tend to like services that achieve a high strike rate because the losing streaks are normally shorter and there is the possibility of staking at higher levels and growing the bank more quickly then low strike-rate services.

So we look forward to seeing how this service gets on under live trial conditions and will kick off the review today. 

Results will be updated here as we go along as usual so you can see how they are getting on.

In the meantime you can check out Blue Chip Naps for yourself here.
