Draw Master – Full Review
It is often said that the draw is the forgotten factor in football betting. Whilst most of the money typically pours for one or both teams to win a game, normally there aren’t many people lining up to bet on the draw.
So in theory there could be opportunities to find value from backing the draw as it is underbacked by most punters.
That is the theory anyway, but theory doesn’t always turn into reality and sadly that has been the case here with Draw Master.
After following the tips for three months, unfortunately they finished with a 31 point loss, which with an advised betting bank of 50 points, represented a 62% loss of the bank.
That is quite a substantial loss and with a return of investment of -7%, we have no choice really but to award this a FAILED rating.
Hopefully they can turn things around after the last few months of tough results but for the time being this isn’t a service we could recommend following.
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: There are an average of 5 bets per day so a reasonable amount of work involved in following the service.
Availability of prices: We didn’t experience any issues in matching the advised prices with the option of exchanges sometimes providing an alternative where bookies prices were not available.
Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 27%, which is a little below the long term average of 30%.
Advised Betting Bank: A 50 point bank is advised for following the service, which seemed a little on the low side with us ending up 31 points down and being 50 points down at one stage. We would think a 100 point bank would be more suitable.
Subscription costs: The subscription costs are £1 for the first 10 days then £25/month, £50/quarter or £150/year.
OVERALL VERDICT: FAILED
The Draw Master specialises in backing the draw in football matches and we could see the theory behind why that might generate value in the long run.
Unfortunately we didn’t see any evidence of that during our trial however, with a loss of 31 points and our bank was nearly wiped out at one point.
So it’s a failed rating from us after a disappointing trial.

Draw Master – Results Update
7th May 2018
Sadly it’s been a tough time for football betting service Draw Master lately, with 25 points lost since our last update.
That means they are now 44 points down for our trial overall.
You can view full results here.
Unfortunately this seems to be suffering from the same fate as the other draw service we are reviewing at the moment, Draw Doubles, with just not enough draws happening currently.
This one will need a big turn around soon to end our trial in profit, let’s see if they can do it.

Draw Master – Results Update
20th March 2018
It’s been a difficult time lately for football betting service Draw Master, which has lost 14 points since our last update about a month ago.
That means we are now 19 points down for the trial overall.
You can view full results here.
Bets come in a variety of leagues from around the world and some of them are a little obscure, but if they are able to obtain value then it doesn’t matter too much where the bets come from. At the moment though, we haven’t seen too much evidence of value being found.
Plenty of time to turn things around however, so let’s hope they do so soon.

Draw Master – Results Update
20th March 2018
It’s been a quiet start to our trial of football tipster Draw Master, with 5 points lost so far after one month.
You can view full results here.
This is quite a high volume service, with three or four bets per day, spread across a variety of smaller leagues across the world from South America to Switzerland and beyond.
As the name suggests, all the bets are on the draw, so it is pretty simple to follow and you can just place all the bets on Betfair.
Anyway, let’s hope by the time of our next update things will have moved into the positive.

Draw Master – New Review
21st February 2018
We often comment here about how it is like buses sometimes with similar betting systems coming along at the same time after a long time without any.
Well that is certainly the case today, as we are going to take a look at our second football service focusing on backing the draw in the space of a few weeks, after not having seen one for a good couple of years.
The service we are looking at today is called the Draw Master and comes hot on the heels of another service we have just started a trial of, Draw Doubles.
Draw Master is an extremely simple concept, just betting on the draw in football matches as single bets.
The approach certainly seems to be working, with over 80 points profit made to 1 point level stakes so far since starting tipping back in October, which equates to over £200 per month on average to just £10 stakes.
The service is run by a guy called Hamish who has been specialising in the draw outcome of football matches for some time. He is a disciplined and experienced tipster and has apparently perfected his skills since being made redundant in 2012 and is cleaning up at the bookies with his footy tips.
The strike rate is around 35%, which is around what you would expect with around a third of football matches finishing in a draw.
However, the return on investment is very impressive at 23%, which is exceptionally high for football where 10% is usually seen as a good metric.
Bets are sent out in the evening before matches, so plenty of time to get the bets on which is good to see.
We will run our normal three month trial which will take us pretty much up to the end of the season – and just in time for the World Cup, which is handy.
Results as ever will be recorded here so you can see how the trial is getting on.
In the meantime you can check out the Draw Master here.
