Carl Nicholson’s Stable Whispers – Full Review

 

After having given horse racing tipster Carl Nicholson’s main Racing Diary service a positive review, we were eager to test out his other service, Stable Whispers.

Stable Whispers is a service that focuses on information received from stables about horses expected to go well.

Prior to our trial, it had apparently amassed a healthy 60 points profit for the year.

Sadly though during our four month trial almost all those profits were wiped out, with a loss of 47 points being made to advised prices.

That equated to a 97% loss of the recommended 50 point bank, pretty shocking stuff.

At Betfair SP the results were even worse, with a 66 point loss being made – so the whole bank would have been wiped out! 

Overall then we have no choice but to award Stable Whispers a FAILED rating with such large losses having been made.

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use:  There is an average of just one bet per day, so the workload is extremely low with this service. 

Availability of prices:  The prices weren’t overly under pressure from when the tips were released, although the occasional selection would get smashed in by the off time. Best to get your bets on the evening before in any event. 

Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was a lowly 11%, well below what it needs to be for the service to turn a profit.  

Advised Betting Bank: A 50 point bank is advised for following the service, which clearly is not enough given that we suffered a 47 point loss during the trial. We believe a 100 point bank should be advised. 

Subscription costs: The subscription costs are £34.98 per month, which includes Stable Whispers and Carl’s main service, the Racing Diary. 

 

OVERALL VERDICT: FAILED

Sadly Carl Nicholson’s Racing Diary has had a horror trial, racking up a loss of 47 points to advised prices.

It could be that we just hit the service at a bad time, but any tipster who loses 97% of their advised betting bank is going to have a tough time convincing followers to stay with them.

On that basis, we have no choice but to award the Stable Whispers service a FAILED rating and time to move swiftly on to the next trial we feel…

Carl Nicholson’s Stable Whispers – Results Update

2nd August 2017

There has been a small improvement for Carl Nicholson’s Stable Whispers since our last update, with 6 points profit made at advised prices.

Sadly though, we are still 28 points down at advised prices for the trial overall, so plenty more lost ground still needs to be made up.

At Betfair SP, it is a slightly worse story, with 3 points profit made since our last update but we are still 46 points down for the trial overall.

Carl Nicholson’s Stable Whispers – New Review

10th May 2017

Hot on the heels of just completing our successful trial of Carl Nicholson’s Racing Diary service, we are now following that up with a new trial of his other offering, his Stable Whispers service.

Just to recap in case you missed our previous trial, Carl Nicholson is a maths and computer science graduate from Harvard University in the USA.

He also worked for the Daily Racing Form in America and has written a book on his method of finding value selections.

Carl’s Racing Diary service performed very well during our trial, notching up 45 points of profit at a return on investment of 29%.

With such impressive results, we thought we just had to follow it up with a trial of his other service, Stable Whispers.

This is a newer service which Carl just started up in late 2016 but in a short time has built up an strong-looking set of results, notching up 61 points profit so far in 2017.

That equates to £1,534 to £25 stakes, a nice little bonus if you combine it with the £1,281 made with the main Racing Diary selections. 

Basically the Stable Whispers service consists of selections that have come in from Carl’s network of contacts around the country.

He apparently gets a lot of ‘news’ each day, and spends his mornings checking out the viability of that info and the best news goes to his Stable Whispers members.

That info looks to be pretty sound so far based on what is published on the website.

Certainly if it turns out to be as good as the main service, then we have found two little gems rolled into one!

The Stable Whispers service is only available as an add-on to Racing Diary service, but you can get them combined for a reasonable price of £34.98 per month. 

We will run a standard three month trial of Stable Whispers and will report back soon on how things are going.

In the meantime you can check out Carl Nicholson’s Stable Whispers here.

Lucky Multi Bets – Final Review

We have reached the end of our three month trial of Lucky Multi Bets and here are the final results:-

Lucky Multi Bets – Full Review

 

Lucky Multi Bets is a horse racing tipster service that provides four selections each day, which are then placed in a Lucky 15 bet.

There are some bold claims on their website about having won over £18,000 from a £7.50 bet so we were eager to test the service out and see if it could deliver.

So how did it get on during our three month trial?

Well we are disappointed to say that Lucky Multi Bets had a fairly poor trial, racking up a loss of 36 points at advised prices and 28 points at Betfair SP.

A service like this depends to a certain extent on hitting a big-priced winner where all four selections win on the same day, landing a potentially massive prize.

This didn’t happen during our trial unfortunately and we wonder how many people would have the stomach to endure the losing runs whilst hoping for a big winner to be landed.

In truth we doubt it would be very many and so we are afraid it is a FAILED rating for Lucky Multi Bets.

Not so lucky this time…

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use:  There is just one bet per day, which is a lucky 15 bet. So you will need some bookies accounts to place the lucky 15. 

Availability of prices:  The prices were generally freely available, we saw no problems in that aspect of the service. 

Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 28%, which on its own is not too bad, but the service relies on hitting 3 or 4 winners on the same day to really bank some profits, which happens very rarely. 

Advised Betting Bank: There was no betting bank advised, but we used a 100 point bank for the trial which seemed sufficient.

Subscription costs: The subscription costs are £27 per month or £127 per year. 

 

OVERALL VERDICT: FAILED

Unfortunately Lucky Multi Bets has failed to deliver the hoped-for profits during our trial, ending up 36 points down in the end.

On that basis we are forced to award this a FAILED rating for now and will move on in our search to find the best betting systems for you.

Lucky Multi Bets – Results Update

It continues to be a struggle for Lucky Multi Bets, which isn’t proving very lucky so far sadly!

Since our last update we have lost a further 16 points at advised prices, meaning we are now 31 points down for the trial overall.

At Betfair SP, we have lost 13 points since the last update and are 28 points down overall.

At Betfair SP it is a similar story, with another 7 points lost since our last update and 15 points also lost overall.

Just to recap briefly, this is a service advising one lucky 15 bet per day on the horses.

Hopefully we will have better news to report in our next update.

Lucky Multi Bets – Results Update

28th June 2017

It has been a slow start to our trial of Lucky Multi Bets, who are 8 points down so far to advised prices.

Just to recap, this is a horse racing service that provides you with four selections per day, which you place in a Lucky 15 bet. That is it, no other bets or combinations needed.

At Betfair SP, the results have been very similar, with 8 points also lost so far.

A strategy like this does rely on all four selections being hit in one day to land the big prize, so things could turn around for them if they manage to achieve that.

Lucky Multi Bets – New Review

2nd June 2017

Our inbox has been inundated recently about a new service called Lucky Multi Bets.

With so much marketing hype around the system, we thought we would take a look and see what the fuss was all about.

The idea of the service is to place small stakes on long shot multiple bets in the hope of winning big.

On the sales page, it shows a winning bet slip with a return of £18,849 from a £7.50 stake, placed as a lucky 15 bet.

Now wins like this are obviously extremely unlikely so the question is whether they can turn a profit on smaller wins whilst you wait for the potential big win to come in. 

Apparently the service is run by a team of professional punters who make their livelihood through horse racing betting.

Not much information is given on how the selections are chosen, other than that the experts pore over form guides, ratings and weather forecasts to find the selections.

No long term results are given, so other than the massive win they quote, it is difficult to judge how profitable the service may be.

The joining costs are £27 per month or £127 per year, so about average for this sort of thing.

We will run our normal three month trial and will report back soon on how things are going.

In the meantime you can check out Lucky Multi Bets here.

Guaranteed Winners – Final Review

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

It is not often we finish a review this early but unfortunately with Guaranteed Winners we have been forced to.

After just about two months, we are sorry to report that we are yet to receive a single bet from Guaranteed Winners.

Nothing. Nada. Nil.

Even after sending them half a dozen e-mails asking what was going on, they failed to produce any meaningful response or tips.

Talk about Guaranteed Winners. Some guaranteed bets would be nice.

We are not sure if this is a scam or just an unfortunate instance where the service has been discontinued and they have forgotten to take the page down.

Either way, it is a FAILED rating from us and a clear warning not to sign up.

Very disappointing that there are still things like this out there but there you are – that is the wild west of the internet!

 

 

 

 

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————–

Guaranteed Winners – New Review

30th May 2017

Today we are starting a trial of a new service, the intriguingly-named Guaranteed Winners.

We aren’t sure how you can “guarantee” winners unless you are doing matched betting, but we are assured this is not a matched betting service.

Anyway, this service apparently earned a computer genius £81,806.34 in just one year.

The tips have a 96.7% accuracy according to the website, which isn’t quite on the level of “guaranteed” (which would be 100%) but is pretty darn close.

So we wonder what odds they tip at with such a high strike rate. It must be very short odds, or perhaps some kind of hedging system.

The sales page tells the story of the author of the system, Eddie Newman, who apparently came from a tough background but learnt computer science and after graduating from university, developed his own betting system using sophisticated algorithms and statistical data.

This system can supposedly now pick winners with over 95% accuracy.

We have to say we are intrigued, but also somewhat sceptical.

Anyway, we will run a three month trial of this and see if the results live up to the promises on the sales page.

As ever, we will back soon with our first update.

In the meantime you can check out Guaranteed Winners here.

Thoroughbred Betting – Full Review

 

Thoroughbred Betting is a horse racing tipster and is a sister service to the Elite Betting Syndicate, a service we reviewed recently and that passed with flying colours.

Unfortunately we are sorry to say that it hasn’t been the same story for Thoroughbred Betting, who have experienced something of a struggle during our three month trial.

They have ended up 25 points down to advised prices, which equates to a 50% loss of the bank and a -17% ROI.

As you can see from the graph below, it was a really bad run towards the end of the trial that did for them.  

Thoroughbred Betting Profit Graph

At Betfair SP things were even worse, with a loss of 52 points being made, more than double the loss at advised prices.

So it won’t surprise you to learn that this is awarded a FAILED rating and is not a service we could recommend at the current time.

Of course it could just be that we hit the service at the wrong time, but given the scale of the losses we worry about that kind of run happening again.  

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use:  With an average of just two bets per day and tips sent out in the evening before racing, this is a simple service to follow.

Availability of prices:  As mentioned above and as with the Elite Betting Syndicate, the prices do get pushed in quite considerably by the off, so you do need to get your bets on quickly. We are not sure based on the results of our trial that the service would be practical to follow at Betfair SP. 

Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 18%, which is probably quite a bit below where it needs to be to generate a profit. 

Advised Betting Bank: There was no bank advised for the service, so we used a 50 point bank which lost 50% of its value during the trial and at Betfair SP was wiped out. 

Subscription costs: The subscription costs are £1 for 7 days then £37+VAT per month. 

 

OVERALL VERDICT: FAILED

Sadly when you lose 50% of your bank during a trial the only fair outcome is going to be a failed rating and that is the case with Thoroughbred Betting.

It may have been that we happened to hit them during a particularly bad run, but the scale of the losses was worrying for us and would have tested the patience of most subscribers.

Hopefully they can turn things around but for the time being this is not a service we can recommend.

Thoroughbred Betting – New Review

4th March 2017

A Thoroughbred – a “hot-blooded” horse known for its agility, speed and spirit. 

Developed in 17th and 18th century England, thoroughbreds were a result of crossbreeding imported Oriental stallions of Arabian, Barb, and Turkoman breeding with native mares.

Apparently all modern thoroughbreds can trace their pedigree to just three stallions imported in the 17th and 18th centuries.

Anyway, enough of the history lesson. Thoroughbreds are the topic of our latest trial here at Honest Betting Reviews – a horse racing service called Thoroughbred Betting.

The team behind the service don’t just bet on thoroughbreds, but a wide variety of horses. Having been banned from all major UK bookmakers, they have turned their attention to helping people like us beat the bookies instead.

Using a wealth of knowledge and wide-ranging industry contacts, they have built up a strong methodology to generate profits.

Indeed, the results published on the website look highly impressive – more than £32,000 profit in less than two years at a return on investment of over 130%!

Of course we can’t vouch for those results as we have only recently come across the website, but that is why we will be running a trial now to see if they can reproduce those kind of results under live trial conditions.

Those of you who checked out our recent new trial of Elite Betting Syndicate may notice the similarity in the style of the website and indeed these tips do seem to be from the same stable.

That is good news as far as we are concerned, because the Elite Betting Syndicate has been going great guns!

The other piece of good news is that Thoroughbred are offering a one week trial for just £1, so you can check out the tips for yourself for 7 days before signing up to a longer subscription.

We started receiving the tips on 25th Feb, so we will record results from then onwards.

We will update results here regularly during the trial so you can see how things are progressing.

In the meantime you can check out Thoroughbred Betting here.

The Professor’s Formula – Full Review

 

The Professor’s Formula is a horse racing tipster from the Tipster Street stable, who specialises in flat racing on both the turf and all-weather.

Sadly the Professor has had one of those trials where pretty much everything has gone wrong and we have ended up 57 points down in the end.

As you can see from the graph below, at one stage we were actually over 80 points down, so in some ways it could have been worse. 

The Professor's Formula Profit Graph

Either way though it has been a painful trial and we have no choice but to award the Professor’s Formula a FAILED rating unfortunately. 

Of course it could just be one of those instances where we caught the service at a bad time, but any service that loses such a large portion of your bank will test the patience of any gambler and will be too much for most to bear.

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use:  There is approximately just one tip per day, which is sent out in the morning of racing.

Availability of prices:  With Betfair SP used for all tips, you know you can match the published results. 

Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 26%, which in itself is no disaster, but there were no really big winners in there to make the low strike rate profitable.  

Advised Betting Bank: A 100 point bank is advised for following the service, which came close to being wiped out at one point as we went over 80 points down. 

Subscription costs: The subscription fees are £3.79 for the first month then £14.95 per month or £29.95 per quarter.

 

OVERALL VERDICT: FAILED

Unfortunately with 57% of our bank being lost over the trial, The Professor’s Formula has failed to make the grade and is not a service we can recommend at this stage.

On to the next trial for us…

The Professor’s Formula – New Review

7th February 2017

After recently commencing a trial of a promising Tipster Street service – Shane Murphy’s Irish Tips – we thought we would follow it up with another. 

This time it is the turn of the intriguingly named The Professor’s Formula. 

It is a horse racing service that has been running for over two years and in that time has produced 320 points profit.

Although they don’t give away what the formula is – understandably – it is applied to flat turf and all weather racing only. 

Of particular note is the fact that it uses the exchanges, which I know will appeal to many of you who have lost access to their bookie accounts.

The Professor has landed some massive winners in his time tipping, including Petite Jack at Lingfield in June last year at a whopping BSP of 59.74, which netted a very pleasant 167 points profit.

The average monthly profit is a healthy £525 to £25 stakes and the return on investment is an impressive 35%.

With a strike rate of 39%, the Professor has some impressive metrics that give us encouragement that this may be a top service.

Only time will tell of course, so we will run our normal three month trial here and will report back soon on how things are progressing.

In the meantime, you can check out the Professor’s Formula here.

Shane Murphy’s Irish Tips – Full Review

 

Shane Murphy’s Irish Tips – as you may have guessed from the name – is a horse racing tipster from the Tipster Street stable specialising in bets on Irish racing.

Unfortunately it has been a tough trial for Shane, with a loss of 23 points at advised prices over the three months and 38 points at Betfair SP.

That equates to a loss of 23% of the advised starting bank, which is just low enough to warrant a FAILED rating sadly.

However, we don’t think this is a fatally flawed service and the results prior to our trial were good, with three successful years of betting, so we will continue to monitor with a view to a potential upgrade if results improve.

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use:  There are approximately 1.5 tips per day, which are sent out in the morning of racing.

Availability of prices:  The prices were generally freely available, although the results at Betfair SP were somewhat lower so it pays to use the bookies if you can. 

Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 32%, which is solid but a bit below where it needed to be to generate a profit at the prices the tips are given at. 

Advised Betting Bank: A 100 point bank is advised for following the service, which seems reasonable and should be sufficient to cover losing runs. 

Subscription costs: The subscription fees are £4.99 for the first month then £19.95 per month or £39.95 per quarter.

 

OVERALL VERDICT: FAILED

Unfortunately it has been a tough trial for Shane Murphy’s Irish Tips, which made a 23 point loss in the three months we proofed the tips.

On the basis of those results we have to award the service a failed rating sadly, but at the same time we don’t think the service is inherently flawed and it may well have just been that we hit it at a bad time.

So we will keep an eye on things and see if results improve over the coming months.

It’s been a slow start to our trial of Shane Murphy’s Irish Tips, with 9 points lost so far to advised prices after a couple of weeks.

You can view full results here.

At Betfair SP things are very similar, with 11 points lost so far.

It is very early days so nothing to get too concerned about at this point. 

One thing to be aware of when following a tipster who specialises in Irish racing is that there are a lot less races than in UK racing. For example, you often go two or three days without any races at all.

So patience is a watchword here, but Shane’s long term results are very good so hopefully it will be worth the wait.

Shane Murphy’s Irish Tips – New Review

3rd February 2017

Today we are commencing a new trial of a horse racing tipster who specialises in Irish racing.

The name of the tipster is Shane Murphy and he comes from the Tipster Street stable.

With a name like Shane Murphy, he couldn’t sound much more Irish so it seems appropriate that he is tipping on races in Ireland.

His record is superb and it is no wonder that Shane has built up quite a following in the Emerald Isle. 

Having started tipping in 2014, Shane has made 318 points profit so far, a very decent total. 

However, it was last year in 2016 that things really took off for Shane, with over 250 points profit made on the year. 

Each year so far has been profitable, with 63 points made in 2015 and 19 points in 2014.

It’s a service with a decent strike of 36%, so it shouldn’t be too painful to follow in terms of losing streaks.

We are looking forward to getting another of a tipster specialising in Irish racing underway after our successful trial of Classic Racing Gold last year.

There aren’t many Irish racing specialists around so would be good to another one to our portfolio, particularly as Classic Racing Gold has closed its doors to new members.

And the nice thing about Tipster Street services is that you can get your first month for a reduced fee, with this one offering the first 30 days for just £4.99. 

So without further ado we will kick off the trial of Shane Murphy and will return with our first update in a couple of weeks.

In the meantime you can check out Shane Murphy’s Irish Tips here.

The 567 Method – Full Review

 

The idea behind the 567 Method is that it is meant to produce five bets per day, six days per week, giving seven points profit every week.

Nice idea in theory.

But sadly it didn’t turn out anything like that during our trial, finishing 43 points down in the end after three months. 

The target of making seven points per week always seemed somewhat arbitrary (and hopeful) to us and that is what it proved to be.

Here are the results for the trial in graph format:

567 Method Profit Graph

As you can see, things went downhill fairly early before a brief rally, but then there was a long losing run towards the end. 

Some people in the comments below asked whether this is a scam. We don’t think it qualifies as a “scam” as such because it was never promising to make seven points profit per week, it was just a target – however arbitrary and unlikely that may have been.

But it does go down as a disappointing system and it’s a FAILED rating from us unfortunately.

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use:  The selections are sent out in the morning by e-mail and there are five selections per day (apart from Sundays when there are none), so plenty of time to get the bets on. 

Availability of prices:  There wasn’t much of a problem getting the advised prices and indeed the BSP results ended up virtually the same as the advised price results.  

Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was over 21%, so there were some losing streaks, particularly towards the end. 

Advised Betting Bank: No betting bank was advised, but we used a 100 point bank, which we lost nearly half of during the trial. 

Subscription costs: The service is currently full so subscription costs are not available at the moment. 

 

OVERALL VERDICT: FAILED

The concept of making 7 points profit per week sadly didn’t materalise for the 567 Method during our trial. 

In fact we finished 43 points down, lost nearly half our bank and only had a small proportion of the weeks during our trial when the target was hit.

So unfortunately it’s a FAILED rating for the 567 Method and time to move on to the next system.

567 Method – Results Update

10th December 2016

Not much change to report for the 567 Method, with just one point of profit added since our last update a few weeks ago.

That means we are now 15 points down for the trial overall at advised prices.

You can view full results here.

At Betfair SP we are 13 points down, so unusually we are doing slightly better at Betfair SP than at advised prices.

We have just over a week to go in our trial, so let’s hope for a good finish from the 567 Method to take us into profit overall. 

 

 

 

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

567 Method – Results Update

21st November 2016

There has been an improvement for the 567 Method since our last update at the end of October.

They have made 13 points profit in November, bringing them to 16 points down for the trial overall.

You can view full results here.

At Betfair SP things are slightly better, with them being 11 points down for the trial. 

We have a month left in the trial, so will be interesting to see if they can continue the good recent form and finish in profit.

Back soon with more updates.  

 

 

 

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

567 Method – Results Update

31st October 2016

It’s been a tough run for the 567 Method since our last update a few weeks ago. 

They have lost 32 points at advised prices since our last update, to sit at -29 points overall for the trial.

You can view full results here.

At Betfair SP, things are identical at 29 points down as well.

So far this is failing to live up to its billing of delivering 7 points profit per week. In fact we have only hit that target one week to date.

 

 

 

 

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

567 Method – Results Update

6th October 2016

The 567 Method is a horse racing tipster that aims to provide 5 bets per day, 6 days per week, to win 7 points profit per week (hence 5-6-7).

So have they managed it so far?

Well not quite – the first week we hit the profit target, the second we didn’t and the third we are mid-way through.

So overall, we are 3 points up at advised prices and 4 points up at Betfair SP.

You can view full results here.

What happens is that if you hit the 7-point target for the week, then you stop there and there are no more bets for the week.

In the first week, the target was hit on Monday so there were no more bets for the rest of the week!

It is perhaps not surprising that the 7-point target has not been hit for the second week as it is somewhat arbitrary.

If your selection process works, why not carry it on for the rest of the week?

Everyone has their own approach to betting though I suppose.

We will see how things go with this and report back soon with another update.

567 Method – New Review

14th September 2016

We have been getting quite a few e-mails lately about something called the “567 Method.”

So always keen to check out any new offerings that come about and expose any possible scams, we thought we would investigate.

Upon clicking on the link you are taken to a glossy sales page with a video by a guy called “Ben Dawson.”

Now there are a number of things that worry us about this page.

Firstly there is the “only 7 days left to sign up.” 

No successful system we have ever come across has this kind of sales pressure, certainly not at the outset.

Some will limit numbers of subscribers to protect prices after they have established a strong record of success over perhaps 1 or 2 years, but not to some arbitrary deadline.

Then there are the claims that he makes £700 per week, although when you watch the video he clarifies that he doesn’t actually make that amount every week.

Finally when we signed up, we immediately got requests to sign up to other services that Ben runs – never a good sign.

Anyway, the 567 method is supposedly 5 bets, 6 days per week, making 7 points profit on average. Simple enough.

There is no information about how selections are arrived at – “Well that is a secret that I am not willing to let out of the bag.”

There are no published results either to back up the claim of profits being made.

So all in all we have to say we are skeptical about the 567 Method so far.

But we will put these doubts aside and run a three month trial to see whether Ben can back up his claims with some solid results.

We will be back soon with our first update.

In the meantime you can check out the 567 Method here. 

 

 

 

Low Hanging Profits – Final Review

/0 Comments/in , , /by

We have reached the end of our three month trial of Low Hanging Profits and here are the final results:

 

Profit/loss:    -57 points 
Strike Rate:    67%
Bank Growth:    -76%
Cost:   £1 for first month then £24.95/month or £59.95/quarter
ROI:   -5%
Average number of tips:    2 per day
VERDICT:   FAILED

Low Hanging Profits – Full Review

 

Our trial of sports tipster Low Hanging Profits has been completed and unfortunately it has finished in quite a substantial loss of -57 points.

That represents a loss of 76% of the bank, which is quite a considerable loss.

We often say that being an expert in one sport is difficult but being an expert an multiple sports is a feat only a very select few can achieve.

Sadly on the basis of our trial, Low Hanging Profits haven’t managed to join that select group.

As you can see from the graph below, it was quite an up and down trial, but always in negative territory. 

Low Hanging Profits - Profit Graph

So on the basis of such a large percentage of the starting bank being lost, unfortunately it can only be a failed rating for Low Hanging Profits.

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use: Tips are sent out in morning with plenty of time to get the bets on. There are an average of two bets per day, so it’s a fairly straightforward service to follow.

Availability of prices: We had no problem obtaining the advised prices, with most of the tips in high profile events with good liquidity. 

Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 67%, which on the face of it is very good, but clearly it was not high enough to return a profit at the odds they tip at.

Advised Betting Bank: A 75 point betting bank is advised for the service, which we don’t think is enough. Although the strike rate is high, the staking is high at up to 10 points per selection and an average of 6.5 points. That means even a small losing run of 5 or 6 is going to do serious damage to the bank. We think a more realistic bank would be 100-150 points. 

Subscription costs: Subscription costs are £1 for the first month then £24.95 per month, £59.95 per quarter or £219.95 for lifetime. 

 

OVERALL VERDICT: FAILED

We have had a number of really top tipsters emerge from the Betting Gods tipster stable, including the likes of Quentin Franks Racing and Master Racing Tipster.

Unfortunately not every one of their tipsters can be a hit and in the case of Low Hanging Profits, it’s a miss this time.

With 57 points lost and a decline in the bank of 76%, it has to be a failed rating from us.

Low Hanging Profits – Results Update

14th November 2016

It has been a tough few weeks for sports tipster Low Hanging Profits, who have lost 36 points since our last update.

That means they are now 58 points down for the trial overall.

You can view full results here.

There have been some bad 10 point losses recently, including Hillary Clinton to win the US Election (argh!), laying Man City against Barcelona and laying West Ham versus Chelsea in the League Cup.

Those losses hit the bank pretty bad, so it will need something special over the last couple of weeks of our trial to turn things into profit for Low Hanging Profits. 

 

 

 

 

———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Low Hanging Profits – Results Update

25th October 2016

It’s been a better month for Low Hanging Profits since our last update, with 6 points of profit added.

That means they are now 22 points down overall, which isn’t quite as bad as it sounds as the staking is quite, with an average stake of 7 points per bet.

You can view full results here.

Hopefully the improvement we have seen in October for Low Hanging Profits will continue.

Back soon with more updates.

Low Hanging Profits – Results Update

It’s been a tough start to our trial of Low Hanging Profits, who have lost 28 points in the first month of our trial.

They tip in a variety of sports including football, darts, rugby and snooker. It can be tough to make money from tipping in a number of different sports, although some do manage it, such as The Sports Guru and Betting Bias.

Hopefully this is just a blip for Low Hanging Profits and they will get back on form soon.

Back with more updates shortly.

Low Hanging Profits – New Review

26th August 2016

Those of you who are regular visitors to Honest Betting Reviews will know we are big fans of systems that deliver high strike rates.

“Why?” – you may ask.

Well, for one, it means you will lots of winning bets and short losing streaks, which psychologically is very good.

Second, with a higher strike rate you can bet a bigger percentage of your bank on each selection, meaning bigger staking and the potential to build a bank more quickly.

Thirdly, you don’t tend to suffer from such sharp price reductions on tips like you do when a tipster is tipping at say 25/1 or 33/1 – in other words, there is a lot of liquidity in the market generally when backing at odds-on.

So all in all it is a very positive thing when you find a system with a high strike rate that also delivers profit.

That is what we have with the latest service we have come across, Low Hanging Profits from the Betting Gods stable.

This is a tipster who bets on a variety of sports including Football, Horse Racing, Cricket, Rugby and Snooker.

Their strike rate since starting up back in March is over 70%, which is excellent stuff.

Profits to date have averaged over £280 per month to £10 stakes and the return on investment is over 10%.

Low Hanging Profits is run by a guy called Raymond who has been a professional bettor for many years and has apparently perfected the art of selecting bets where bookies have priced things wrongly and the odds are ripe for picking – low hanging fruit if you like.

It’s a strategy that certainly seems to have been working well to date, so let’s see if it can hold up under the scrutiny of a live trial.

We will run our normal three month test of this and will report back shortly on how things are progressing.

In the meantime you can check out Low Hanging Profits here.

The All Weather God – Final Review

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Unfortunately our review of the All Weather God has to stop here as the service has been discontinued by the Betting Gods platform.

Apparently results weren’t up to expectations, although to us they didn’t seem too bad, just around level for the trial.

But that just goes to show how cutthroat the world of tipping is – if you are not making regular profits then you are out the game! Harsh stuff.

Anyway, given that this has been discontinued, we will have to place it in the failed/defunct pile.

On to the next review then…

 

 

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

The All Weather God – Results Update

20th September 2016

A fairly quiet time for the All Weather God, with 5 points lost at advised prices since our last update.

That leaves him 1 point down for the trial overall.

You can view full results here.

At Betfair SP, things are slightly worse, with 8 points lost since our last update, leaving him 13 points down overall.

Just a few weeks left in our trial, so let’s hope for a big finish to lift the All Weather God into profit.

The All Weather God – Results Update

28th August 2016

Not a great deal of change for the All Weather God since our last update at the end of July, with 3 points lost since then at advised prices.

That means they are now 5 points up for the trial at advised prices and 5 points down at Betfair SP.

With the flat season winding down in September and the all-weather getting geared up, we should see a good deal of action for the All Weather God.

The All Weather God – Results Update

So far after just under a month, they are 8 points up at advised prices and 1 point up at Betfair SP.

You can view full results here.

Even though it isn’t the ideal time of year for all weather betting, there have still been a decent number of tips so far, with 38 selections since our trial started on 5th July.

A solid start then, let’s hope it’s a platform for big success over the rest of the trial.

Back soon with more updates.

The All Weather God – New Review

5th July 2016

Some of the top tipsters we have reviewed so far here at Honest Betting Reviews have been from the Betting Gods stable of tipsters.

So when a new entrant joins their gang of tipping experts we sit up and take notice.

The latest to join the crew is the modestly-named All Weather God.

As you have probably already guessed, this is a tipster who specialises in all-weather racing only.

Although we are in the flat turf season at the moment, there is still plenty of all-weather racing and the discipline seems to be expanding all the time, with Newcastle recently adding a new dirt track.

That may be because the weather is so unpredictable these days, what with climate change and all that as we are experiencing more frequent floods and heavy rains, so racecourses are having to adapt as there is nothing worse for them than losing a load of race days (and income) to the bad weather.

In any event, it is good news for punters as the all weather does tend to be more predictable and less subject to the increasingly variable going conditions we are seeing in flat racing, particularly this summer.

The All Weather God has amassed some pretty impressive results so far, netting over 80 points profit at a strike rate of just under 30% and a return on investment of over 10%.

Six out of seven months so far have been profitable which is encouraging, so hopefully we will see that level of consistency during our trial.

The good news is you can get a 30 day trial of The All Weather God for just £1 here.

We will run our normal three month trial and report back regularly on how things go for this dirt specialist.

Hopefully we will have good news to report during our first update in a month’s time.

In the meantime you can check out The All Weather God here.

Consistent Forex Trades – Full Review

 

We recently decided to expand our range here at Honest Betting Reviews and start looking at some forex and stockmarket systems in an attempt to find some money-making strategies.

So we started a trial of Consistent Forex Trades back in March and have just come to the end of our three month trial.

What are our findings then? Have we uncovered a forex trading gem?

Well sadly that doesn’t seem to be the case.

After three months we have finished 286 pips down, which when you add in the subscriptions costs of £100 + tax per month (following the first month at £1) then it has been quite an expensive trial.

What’s more, we have received no signals since 17th June, so well over two weeks which is a little strange and frustrating when you are paying over £100 per month to receive them.

We should stress that we were just trading the weekly “set and forget” signals and not the intraday signals. 

So all in all we have to give this a FAILED rating and to move on elsewhere.

Consistent Forex Trades Profit Graph

As you can see from the graph above, things were badly in the minus for most of the trial before making a recovery at the end.

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use: The service is fairly straightforward to use, with signals sent out on a Sunday and then you can just set up the trades and forget about them. Simples!

Availability of prices: The recommended prices were generally always available or a tick or two either way.

Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 38%, which is well below the advertised 75% success rate.

Advised Betting Bank: No betting bank was advised, but we used a 1500 pip bank for the trial which seemed sufficient at the outset but did get threatened when we were 1200 pips down at one stage.  

Subscription costs: The subscription costs are quite high at £1 for the first month then £99.99 per month.

 

OVERALL VERDICT: FAILED

We had fairly high hopes coming into our trial of Consistent Forex Trades. 

They had been averaging over 400 pips per month prior to our trial, which is pretty impressive stuff.

But sadly as we see so many times, that kind of performance wasn’t achieved during our live trial and in fact a loss of 286 pips was recorded.

Whilst that was not a huge loss in itself, when coupled with the high subscription costs of £100 + taxes per month, we felt this wasn’t a service we could continue following.

So it is unfortunately a FAILED rating for Consistent Forex Trades and on to the next system…

Consistent Forex Trades – Results Update

22nd May 2016

Things have continued to be a bit of a struggle for Consistent Forex Trades, who have lost a further 106 pips since our last update to sit at 479 pips down for the trial as a whole.

You can view full results here.

These results are for the set and forget trades, which are sent out on Sunday and then you can just put the orders in on your account and sit back and see what happens.

Sadly so far things during our trial haven’t matched the results coming into it, so hopefully things will pick over the remainder of the trial.

Back soon with further updates.

Consistent Forex Trades – Results Update

26th April 2016

It’s been a tough start to our trial of Consistent Forex Trades, a forex signals service from a guy called Roger Elliot.

The service has two different types of signal – intraday signals that are designed to be primarily traded each day, and the weekly “set and forget” signals that are sent out on Sunday and set up for the week, then you can just forget about them. 

We have just been following the “set and forget” signals for reasons of time constraints and these are 373 pips down so far after just under one month.

You can view full results here.

We understand the intraday signals are 328 pips down, so it has been a disappointing start for Consistent Forex Trades overall.

However, it is still early days and plenty of time to turn things around, so let’s hope for an improvement from the service soon.

 

 

 

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————–

Consistent Forex Trades – New Review

28th March 2016

Today we are starting a new trial of a forex signals service called Consistent Forex Trades.

What I initially liked about this service was the lack of over-hyped sales nonsense that you see with so many forex and trading services.

It just explains straight up what the service is and what it is not.

So no scammy and annoying videos and attempted up-selling, just an explanation that you are provided with weekly forex and equity price reaction trading levels and signals.

The service is run by a guy called Roger Elliot and there are basically three parts to it:

  1. The Pullback – this is where Roger expects a price to pull back to a certain level, then move off in the original direction it was going in before the pullback. You need to wait for the price to reach the pullback level before executing the trade.
  2. The Direction – this is when Roger sees the price moving in one predominant direction for the week and trades are normally on a 1:1 ratio in terms of risk to reward.
  3. Set and Forget – Roger will provide selections on a Sunday and you just input the orders and forget about them – until they have either won or lost. Simples!

So plenty of options there for you to play around with depending on your preferences for trading.

We will focus on the set and forget signals as those will be the most straightforward to monitor and where there should be no ambiguity in terms of the results.

Consistent Forex Trades

With the other ones, there will be a degree of personal judgement as to where to enter and exit trades so two people could get quite different results. 

You can get a 4 week trial for just £1, which is a very good way to see which of the methods is best for you.

Apparently the signals have a 75% success record, which is very impressive.

In the 10 months it has been running, the service claims to have made just under 4,000 pips profit, which is just under 400 pips per month. Not bad at all, even if you are just trading at £1 per pip.

So hopefully the trades will continue to achieve consistency and deliver decent profits over the trial.

Back soon with our first update on how things are progressing.

In the meantime, you can check out Consistent Forex Trades here.
