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.

You can view full results here.

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

30th July 2016

It’s been a steady start to our trial of the All Weather God, a horse racing tipster from the Betting Gods stable.

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.

Ultimate Horse Power – Final Review

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

Oh dear.

What can we say really?

Sometimes everything that can go wrong, does go wrong.

This has been the case for Ultimate Horse Power sadly, who on 26th May reached the disappointing point of having blown the whole advised 100 point bank.

You can view full results here.

Any service that reaches that point has to be an automatic fail really. 

You can debate whether the advised bank should have been bigger, and with a strike rate of 17%, there is an argument that it should have been quite a bit more substantial.

However, we can only go with is advised at the outset of our trial and on that basis the whole bank was lost.

Sometimes that just happens in betting, occasionally any service can hit a horror run.

But in the sink-or-swim world of tipping, anything that doesn’t excel sadly falls by the wayside and so with 100 points lost in a month, Ultimate Horse Power is one such service.

OVERALL RATING: FAILED

Ultimate Horse Power – Results Update

13th May 2016

It seems like the reviewer’s curse has struck again.

So often it seems like a tipster or betting system has a brilliant record and promises great levels of return.

But then for some reason, as soon as you start a review of said product, things go pear-shaped.

This has been the case so far with Ultimate Horse Power, which had made a superb 230 points profit coming into our trial, with an average monthly profit of 59 points.

However, unfortunately after three weeks of the trial we are 44 points down.

You can view full results here.

All bets are placed at Betfair SP and a bot can be used for placing the bets, as there are a large number of bets each day. 

It is early days of course, so plenty of time to turn things around and get back to winning ways for Ultimate Horse Power.

Back soon with more updates.

Ultimate Horse Power – New Review

25th April 2016

There are generally two approaches to betting on the horses.

One is to take a very selective approach, scanning the races very carefully and only choosing those one or two bets each day that really stand out.

Then there is the other approach that focuses on high volume betting, backing 10-20 horses per day and looking to take advantage of a small edge over the market that repeated many times, will add up to big profits over time.

There is no “wrong” or “right” approach as such – both can work well.

However, the latter can certainly build a bank more quickly and tends to lead to higher profit levels at the end of an extended period of say a year.

And it is into this latter category that our latest trialist falls.

Ultimate Horse Power is a relatively new service to the reputable Pro Betting Club stable and has amassed an impressive record so far.

After 4 months, the service is over 230 points in profit.

That works out at 59 points profit per month, a very decent average.

And April is going well so far too, with over 30 points profit accumulated to date in the month.

The good thing is that the results are recorded at Betfair SP, which is reassuring and means you know you can match their results.

As we say, there are a large number of bets each day – often between 20 and 30 – so if you were doing things manually then it could take a bit of time to place the bets.

However, if time is an issue then you can use a bot to place the bets for you. Full instructions of how to set up the Bet Engine bot to place bets for you are given on the Pro Betting Club website.

A 100 point bank is advised for the service, so hopefully that will be enough to cover losing runs and give us steady returns.

Anyway, without further ado, we are pleased to get our trial of Ultimate Horse Power underway and we will return soon with our first update.

In the meantime, you can check out Ultimate Horse Power here.

The Aussie Method – Avoid this Scam

/0 Comments/in , /by

We recently did a review of the Brit Method, a system that promises to make you hundreds of thousands of pounds per month at no cost.

We revealed that system was a scam and warned you to stay away from it.

So the other day when we received an e-mail about something called the Aussie Method, we were keen to check out what it was all about.

Sadly our suspicious that this is a close relation to the Brit Method were confirmed and we would make the same comments as we did about that system – stay away from the Aussie Method, it reeks of a scam.

Here we go through things and look at the rather glaring warning signs.

 

Hmm, haven’t I seen this before somewhere?

The e-mail itself leaves quite a lot to be desired. 

Instead of addressing it to me or a generic “Dear Investor,” it starts “Hi {first name}.” Not a great start.

Then I am told that a guy called Louis apparently made $764,050 from the system.

So let’s say you suspended your disbelief and clicked through to the Aussie Method in search of untold riches. What would you find? 

Well the first thing you notice when you click on the Aussie Method website is it looks exactly like the Brit Method. Same layout, same colour scheme – and even the same bloke in the top right hand corner.

Except this time he isn’t called Jason Taylor – he’s called Jake Pertu!

Maybe that’s meant to be more of an Aussie-sounding name than Jason Taylor, I don’t know.

And these aren’t the only two versions of this system – before that there was the Canuck Method, with the same guy again but that time he was called Jake Mason.

For some reason they seem to like the guy’s name to start with a J…

Anyway, the picture of the guy is actually just a stock image that you can purchase from a picture site and it features across the internet on everything from “Kelly Clarkson’s unborn child” to “Top 10 grocery shopping mistakes,” and the “Lucky Rich Kid Method,”   plus a bunch of other sites that have nothing to do with the Aussie Method.

 

Implausible Sales Claims

Sometimes we see horse racing or football betting systems that claim to make thousands of pounds per month and it immediately sets alarm bells ringing if the results seem too good to be true.

So when you receive an e-mail that claims to make you “20 years wages in 29 days,” you would be foolish not to be very suspicious.

Then when you click through to the Aussie Method, you are greeted with video messages (which you can’t pause or stop – argh!) from people claiming to have made $500,000 in a month from using the system.

Now if you haven’t already dismissed it as a scam before now, you certainly should be upon seeing these ridiculous claims.

Firstly, the videos are from paid actors from the contracting website Fiverr.com.

Secondly, if these people were really making half a million dollars per month, why on earth are they making videos in cheap-looking sets instead of partying on their yachts in the Caribbean?

In fact, maybe it would be a bit more believable if they did have videos of people in yachts or driving their new Ferraris rather than sitting in rather basic accommodation.

And then let’s just think – half a million dollars per month, that would be 6 million dollars per year.

Do you think if people were really making six million dollars per year through an internet system, it might have been on the news or lots of people would be talking about it?

The simple lesson is that if something seems too good to be true, it almost certainly is. With this one, you don’t need to be a genius to see this is too outlandishly good to be true.

 

Fake Testimonials

An obvious way to try and make yourself look legit is to have lots of success stories and testimonials from people apparently testifying to the quality of your system.

However, it doesn’t take a great deal of interrogating to see that these testimonials are not genuine.

Firstly, we have the success stories.

These are pretty lame, let’s face it. Just some pictures of text messages on an iphone. Anyone could set up some text messages saying a system is good – not the toughest thing in the world.

The same thing with the Twitter and Facebook posts below. What’s interesting is that the posts are all weirdly one minute apart – could that just be a coincidence?

But then we have the “Live Third Party Verified Results.”

Now these results, if they were real, could actually be meaningful.

However, we are not told what the “Third Party” site is – nor can you click through to it!

So how are we to know if these are results are real or verify them for ourselves? Well sadly we can’t, which rather defeats the purpose of having so-called “verified” results.

 

How it Claims to make you Money

In the same way as the Brit Method, the Aussie Method promises to make you money through Binary Options trading. 

The system is supposedly fully automated software for trading such options, so you just have to switch it on and “hey presto” you will be making $800 – $1,000 daily.

It doesn’t explain how exactly the software works and how they came up with a system that makes this much money, but hey, who are we to question?

Although it says the system doesn’t cost anything, in order to use it you will need to deposit money into accounts with Binary Options brokers and then trade with that money.

The people who make the Aussie Method will then cream off commissions from the money you have deposited to these brokers – and you will then be inundated with phone calls from the brokers encouraging you to trade more. That is perhaps more annoying than the system itself.

Anyway, you are highly unlikely to make $800 – $1,000 daily from this. In fact you will probably lose money and possibly quite a lot.

There are quite a few scams involving binary options trading at the moment. It seems that this little-understood form of trading is ripe for wheeling people in to scams and the like.

Our final advice is to keep your money in your wallet and avoid this like the plague. 

We just wait to see what the next version will be – the Kiwi Method? The French Method? The Turkish method?

Who knows…but perhaps they will have another actor with a name beginning with J.

Soccer Goals Syndrome – Final Review

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

We have reached the end of our three month trial of Soccer Goals Syndrome and here are the final results:

 

Profit/loss:    -102 points
Strike Rate:    49%
Bank Growth:    -34%
Cost:   £59.97
ROI:   -34%

Soccer Goals Syndrome – Full Review

 

With a loss of 102 points, we would normally be inclined to say we were disappointed with Soccer Goals Syndrome. 

However, the word disappointment is probably inappropriate here because we were sceptical about the system right at the outset.

Basically this is a system that focuses on finding selections in matches that meet specified criteria and then placing the selections into trixies.

The results published on the website look impressive, but we had immediate concerns on viewing them.

Firstly, there is no explanation given for why some leagues are used and not others, leading us to wonder if the results had been “backfitted,” in the sense of just selecting the leagues that showed profits but without any reasoning behind why those leagues might work.

We also greatly worry about any system that presumes the bookies (and exchanges) are systematically pricing up markets wrongly.

Numerous studies have shown that over the run of a season, the markets price up matches appropriately. So 100/1 shots win 1 in a 100 matches, 200/1 shots win 1 in 200 and so on.

So whilst you may find bookies price things up wrongly for the odd match per week, to think they are systematically pricing up every match wrongly that meets a certain criteria seems fanciful. 

And so it proved during our trial.

A very poor return on investment of -34% is enough on its own to give this a failed rating.

But after seeing this profit graph you would probably also be worried:

Soccer Goal's Syndrome Profit Graph

So it probably doesn’t surprise you to learn we are giving this a failed rating and placing firmly in the scrap bin.

 

OVERALL VERDICT: FAILED

We have tried a few Winningmore products over the years and sadly none of them have worked for us.

Soccer Goals Syndrome is another one to add to the list unfortunately.

We could not see any logic or explanation as to why the system would work and that was borne out by the poor results during our trial.

There was no explanation of why certain leagues are used for the system and that leads us to wonder if the results have been backfitted.

So it’s a failed verdict and time to move on quickly to the next system…

Soccer Goals Syndrome – Results Update

4th March 2016

It has continued to be a struggle for Soccer Goals Syndrome, who have dropped a further 43 points to stand at -75 points for the trial overall.

You can view full results here.

(Our apologies for the mixed up date order in the spreadsheet – to protect the selection process we have to record all selections in a separate spreadsheet and then just record a summary of the results in the one above – which is more easily done by league than in date order).

We expressed some scepticism at the start as to whether such a broad-brush approach as that taken in this system can work and so far that scepticism has been justified.

We questioned why some leagues were used and not others, as there is no reasoning given for this in the system manual.

And with no analysis for individual selections such as looking at recent form or stats, it is difficult to see how a system like this could work in the long run.

Anyway, we have a few weeks left in the trial, so we will see if things pick up towards the end.

 

 

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

Soccer Goals Syndrome – Results Update

21st January 2016

It has been a disappointing start to our trial of Soccer Goals Syndrome, which is 32 points down so far.

You can view full results here.

Basically the system revolves around putting selections in certain leagues into a trixie bet. The selections have to satisfy certain criteria and are found by having a look on Oddschecker or alternative odds comparison site. 

It has been a little quiet with the Christmas break for the European leagues, so we haven’t had a huge amount of action so far.

But we haven’t hit a successful trixie yet, which is what is really needed for this system to make a profit.

Hopefully we will have better news at the time of our next update.

Soccer Goals Syndrome – New Review

14th December 2015

Today we are commencing a trial of a football betting system called Soccer Goals Syndrome from the Winningmore stable.

The system is billed as a simple one for football followers and apparently works on “most leagues around the world,” which is slightly ominous. 

Having had a look at the manual, it is indeed very straightforward and should only take a few minutes a day to find the selections.

The published results include the following leagues: 

  • English Premier League
  • German Bundesliga
  • French Ligue 1
  • Dutch Eredivisie
  • Turkish Premier League
  • N Ireland Premiership
  • Norwegian Tippeligaen
  • Brazil Serie A
  • Swedish Allsvenskan
  • South Koran League

A bit of a random assortment of leagues, not really sure why it is these ones in particular, that is not stated in the manual.

Anyway, since these are the leagues the system apparently works in, these are the ones we will record results for. 

Obviously some of these leagues are on their break now so we won’t be using all of them at the moment.

The system claims to have made 673 points profit over the 2014/15 season at a return on investment of 25%.

We are normally skeptical that a system as simple as this can be effective. Our main concern is whether the 673 points profit came from the leagues in which the system made a profit, but how did it perform in other leagues and have the system authors just cherry-picked those leagues that showed positive results?

It would be helpful to have some explanation as to why those leagues in particular were chosen and others excluded. 

Anyway, we hope our concerns prove unfounded and the system proves as effective as advertised on the website.

We will return soon with updates, but in the meantime you can check out Soccer Goals Syndrome here.

The Brit Method – Avoid this Scam

/1 Comment/in , , /by

One of the reasons I started this site – along with trying to find winning betting and trading systems – was to expose the various scam artists out there.

Well I have just come across one and this deserves full exposure here on the site. 

You may have recently been contacted or heard about the Brit Method from a guy called Jason Taylor.

The system promises to make you hundreds of thousands of pounds per month at no cost.

Now if after hearing that you are not already sceptical, let me sound the alarm bell for you: do not sign up for this – it is a scam.

 

If it sounds too good to be true…

First up, any system that promises to turn you into a overnight millionaire is highly likely to be talking utter nonsense.

If they could really do that, you have to ask why on earth they would bother with taking the time to set up this website, make the videos, spend money on marketing and push you so hard to take up the service.

Surely they would be off in the Caribbean in their massive yacht soaking up the sun with a cocktail in their hand!

That old phrase – “If it sounds too good to be true…it normally is” makes a lot of sense.

The other point is, do you not think that if someone had made an automated system to turn people into instant millionaires, you would have heard about it?

It would be all over the news and the internet and would, in all honesty, pose a bit of headache to our economies if anyone could become an instant millionaire just by clicking on the website. We would probably have hyper-inflation or some other financial meltdown.

Haven’t I seen this before somewhere…

Anyway, leaving aside the completely implausible sales claims, let’s examine the website more closely.

The first and most worrying sign is that this is just a rehash of an almost identical system that did the rounds recently called the Aussie Method. 

It had the same picture of the young guy at the top, except his name was Jake Pertu. 

And before that it was the Canuck Method, and the guy was called Jake Mason! But the same picture each time. That picture is in fact just a stock image you can get from any image site. Just drag the image into google and see what you get. 

Low and behold, it’s not just Jason Taylor from the Brit Method, he also appears for the “Lucky Rich Kid Method,” “Top 10 grocery shopping mistakes,” “Kelly Clarkson’s unborn child” and a whole other load of unrelated stuff.

 

When a testimonial is obviously not a testimonial…

Then if you move on to the supposed “testimonials,” these are all in fact just from paid actors from the website fiverr.com

If you have a look on fiverr you will see those very same people. Unbelievable.

And weirdly even though they are supposedly millionaires, you can see very cheap looking backgrounds in their videos – not the pads of the supposed super-rich.

On the introductory video there is even an inadvertent slip when “Jason Taylor” (I have to use inverted commas for him now) says one of the bank balances has 7 million quid – when in fact it has 7 thousand.

Who cares though when you can be as rich as him in a matter of just weeks!

What’s even more annoying though is that you can’t stop the video on the homepage and shut the idiot up.

 

The System – or lack thereof 

On to the system itself.

Basically it’s binary options trading software that promises to make you instantly rich with just a few clicks of the mouse.

There have been a whole host of binary options scams like this recently. I don’t know what it is about binary options that makes them so attractive to scam artists. 

Maybe it’s because they are relatively new on the scene and little understood, so ripe for drawing people in to scams. 

Basically the system authors will get a big cut of any deposits you make with binary companies – and to make the system function you will have to make a fair few.

There is no way in the world you are going to make hundreds of thousands of pounds per week – more likely you will lose a large amount of money.

And as for the promise to give you £10,000 if you don’t make hundreds of thousands, good luck with that…

This is utter garbage and people peddling this kind of rubbish should be locked up. Problem is they are probably out in Nigeria or somewhere.

Oh well, just avoid it anyway and the less people that take up these things, the sooner we will all be rid of them. 

If you do want to make some extra cash from a genuine money-making opportunity, then we can recommend Profit Maximiser. With it you can make around £500 per month risk-free and even more if you put the time in. Highly recommended.

Head 2 Head Sports Full Review

 

Head 2 Head Sports is a service that tips in an eclectic mix of darts, snooker and tennis, with the majority of bets coming in the latter.

There is an old adage that bookies love people who bet on lots of different sports and we imagine there is some substance behind that.

So we are not surprised in all honesty that this trial has not ended in a success – after all, they are taking on one of the toughest challenges in gambling. 

Virtually all of the professional gamblers we have heard of specialise in one thing – whether it be horse racing, football, poker or some other discipline.

We would even say that most professionals tend to focus on a niche within a particular sport, like sprints in horse racing or corners markets in football, for example.

So finishing 17 points down is certainly no disgrace for Head 2 Head sports, but with 34% of the bank lost over the trial, it ultimately results in a failed rating unfortunately.

Head 2 Head Sports Profit Graph

As you can see, it was steady losses for most of the trial, with a bit of a late rally to improve the figures somewhat by the end.

 

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use: With just over one bet per day, this is quite a simple service to follow. With bets across sports like darts and snooker, it is advisable to have a few bookie accounts to maximise the chances of getting the best odds. 

Availability of prices: There was good availability of prices, subject as we say above to having a wide range of bookie accounts available to you.

Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 59%, which on the face of it is good but with most bets being at short odds, was not high enough to make a profit. 

Advised Betting Bank: With a 50 point bank being advised for the service, it should be comfortable to cover a service like this with a high strike rate and even with a tough run during the trial, the bank was sufficient enough not to be threatened.

Subscription costs: The subscription costs are very reasonable at £2.49 for first month then £9.95 per month or £19.95 per quarter  

 

OVERALL VERDICT: FAILED

Tipping across multiple sports is a notoriously hard thing to do and we know very few people out there who do it successfully.

Head 2 Head Sports tip across an interesting mix of sports, including tennis, darts and snooker. 

They had a tough trial, which resulted in a loss of 17 points – equating to a 34% reduction of the bank.

On that basis, unfortunately it is a failed rating for Head 2 Head Sports. As ever, we will keep an eye on things and see if they can turn matters around.

Head 2 Head Sports – Results Update

19th February 2016

It has continued to be a struggle for Head 2 Head Sports since our last update, with a further 11 points dropped over the last month.

That means they are now 34 points down for the trial as a whole. 

You can view full results here.

This is another one of those trials that seems to have landed some kind of curse. Where as coming into the trial they had racked up impressive profits, since our trial started in September they are now on 5 losing months in a row.

Hopefully things will turn around for them soon.

Head 2 Head Sports – Results Update

19th January 2016

There isn’t a great deal to report since our last update on Head 2 Head Sports a month ago.

They are exactly where they were a month ago, on -23 points for the trial.

You can view full results here.

It has been quiet for them in terms of bets as well, with only 12 bets in the last month. Well with Christmas and everything that’s understandable.

Although the trial is past the three month mark now, we haven’t 100 bets yet so will continue for a little while longer until we have hit that point. Could be a while!

Head 2 Head Sports – Results Update

20th December 2015

The tough run has continued for Head 2 Head Sports, who have dropped a further 8 points since our last update just over a month ago.

They are now 23 points down for our trial, which is a little disappointing so far.

You can view full results here.

This is a very low volume service, with just 60 bets so far after nearly three months. A selective approach can often prove effective, but so far it has been a tricky time for Head 2 Head Sports. Hopefully things will pick up for them soon.

Back soon with more updates.

Head 2 Head Sports – Results Update

8th November 2015

It has been a tough start to our trial of Head 2 Head Sports, who are currently 15 points down after just over a month of tipping.

You can view full results here.

I think they call this sod’s law – October was the worst month they have had since the service started and by a long way. Before that their worst month had been a loss of just two points.

Most of the bets are in tennis, followed by darts and then snooker. I suppose with the tennis season coming to an end you might be getting more random results (apart from Djokovic still winning everything of course).

Anyway, whatever the reason for the dip in form, let’s hope things pick up for them for the remainder of the trial.

Head 2 Head Sports – New Review

27th September 2015

We are having a little spate of multi-sports services coming under review at the moment, with Betting Bias, The Sports Guru and now Head 2 Head Sports from the Tipster Street stables entering a trial.

Head 2 Head Sports concentrates on a rather eclectic mix  of tennis, snooker and darts. We are not quite sure what connects these three sports, but they do seem to know their stuff on all of them.

The results published on the website are very good, with 84 points profit made since the service started in January of this year.

That comes at a return on investment of 18%, which when betting on sports at generally low odds is very commendable.

The selections are mainly odds-on and with a very high strike-rate of 71%, the losing runs should be minimal with this one.

We will be interested to see how this tipster gets on during our trial as it seems like a very promising discovery.

We will be back soon with updates on how the trial is going.

In the meantime you can check out Head 2 Head Sports here.

Football Fever – Final Review

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

We have come to the end of our trial of Football Fever and here are the final results:

 

Profit/loss:    -12 points 
Strike Rate:    46%
Bank Growth:    -24%
Cost:   £2.49 for first month then £9.95/month or £19.95/quarter 
ROI:   -7%
Average number of bets:    1 per day
VERDICT:   FAILED

Football Fever Full Review

 

Football Fever is a service we had high hopes for coming into the trial, thinking we may have discovered a profitable football-only tipster at last.

Sadly that hasn’t turned out to be the case during our trial, with 12 points lost, which represents a decline of the bank of 24%.

That in our view was just a borderline fail, it could have been a neutral rating but just fell into the failed category.

As you can see from the graph below, things were going well for a while but sadly really dipped in the last part of the trial in late January and February. 

Football Fever Profit Graph

Still, we think it is worth keeping an eye on Football Fever to see if results improve in the long term.

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use: There is around just 1 bet per day, so it does not take long at all to get the bets on and you are done for the day.

Availability of prices: The prices were freely available, with most of the bets coming in the big leagues where there is plenty of liquidity.

Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 46%, which is a little lower than it needs to be to generate a profit when tipping at these prices.

Advised Betting Bank: A 50 point bank is advised for following Football Fever, which seems more than adequate to us with a strike rate close to 50% over the long term. Even with a tough run during the trial, the bank was never in jeopardy.  

Subscription costs: The subscription costs are very reasonable at £2.49 for first month then £9.95 per month or £19.95 per quarter  

 

OVERALL VERDICT: FAILED

It has been a disappointing trial for Football Fever in the sense that at the outset we really thought we may have found a winning football tipster at last.

Coming into the trial they had amassed five winning months out of five at a return on investment of over 17%. 

However, as is so often the case, when it came to the live trial they sadly failed to live up to expectations.

With 12 points and 24% of the bank lost, this is just below the level of a neutral rating for us and means unfortunately we feel a failed rating is justified based on the results of our trial.

However, if they could recapture the form shown prior to our trial, then a re-rating could certainly be in order.

Football Fever – Results Update

18th January 2016

The downturn has unfortunately continued for Football Fever, who have lost a further 3.5 points since our last update.

That means they are now -4 points for the trial overall.

You can view full results here.

They had a good December racking up 6 points profit but sadly January has been something of a nightmare so far with 13 points lost.

Although the trial has now been going for over 3 months, we are yet to reach the minimum 100 bet mark so we will continue things for another month or so. 

Let’s hope things finish with a flourish for Football Fever between now and then.

 

 

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

Football Fever – Results Update

21st December 2015

It has been a slight downturn for Football Fever, who have lost 5 points since our last update to sit -0.58 points down so far after just over two months. 

You can view full results here.

It is a common theme with football tipsters at the moment, who pretty much all seem to be struggling. There have some funny results around to be honest, so perhaps that explains things.

Anyway, we are more or less where we started with Football Fever, so no damage done and hopefully they can kick on over the Christmas period and into the New Year.

Back soon with more updates.

Football Fever – Results Update

9th November 2015

It has been a strong start to our trial of Football Fever, who have amassed 4.64 points profit in the first month of the trial.

With football tipsters you do well to make 5 points or more profit per month to 1 point level stakes as you are tipping at much lower odds than horse racing. 

So we are impressed with the start made by Football Fever, which backs up the results published on the website prior to our trial.

You can view full results here.

This is a very selective service, with only around 20-30 bets per month, so a low workload to follow.

The bets are spread around the English and Scottish leagues, plus the big European leagues, so there is no issue in terms of getting bets matched etc.

Let’s hope things continue in the same vein for Football Fever. We will be back soon with further updates.

Football Fever – New Review

12th October 2015

We recently wrote an article looking at who is the best football tipster, which included some of our own favourites plus an overview of some of the big names in football betting.

Truth be told, there aren’t very many successful football tipsters. That’s despite the beautiful game reportedly being the most gambled on sport in the world, with an estimated £500 billion wagered on football each year.

You would think with all that money being bet on the sport, a few people would have worked out how to make a profit out of it.

Well sadly that seems damn hard – much more difficult than horse racing for example, where there are numerous successful professional gamblers and tipsters.

We are determined however to find those diamonds in the rough – those happy few who have figured out to make money from the world’s most popular sport.

And so we were recently quite excited to come across Football Fever, which is a very promising footy tipster from the Tipster Street stables.

Football Fever

Since starting up this May they have racked up five winning months out of five, with a 60% strike rate and a very impressive 17% ROI.

Football tipsters generally do very well just to manage a 10% ROI, so the 17% achieved to date is rather eye-catching.

Their approach to football betting seems fairly selective, with on average one bet per day during the main season and quite a bit less than that during the Summer season.

Subscription costs are very reasonable at £2.49 for the first month and then £9.95 per month, £19.95 per quarter or £79.95 for life.

If this service can keep up the performance levels it has achieved so far then we may found one of those very rare birds – a football tipster that actually wins.

We will be subjecting this to our usual three month trial to see how it holds up under live test conditions.

Check back here for updates on how the trial goes.

Strand Each Way – Final Review

/0 Comments/in , , /by

We have come to the end of our three month trial of Strand Each Way and here are the final results:

 

Profit/loss:    -44 points
Strike Rate:    29%
Bank Growth:    -44%
Cost:   n/a
ROI:   -9%
Average number of bets:    2.5 per day

Strand Each Way Full Review

 

Unfortunately after the trial of Stand Each Way had started well, it went steadily downhill and ended a disappointing 44 points in loss.

This shows again how tough it is to make a profit from betting and that tipping is no easy game. Only the very best and most talented make it. Remember that stat – 98% of gamblers lose money overall.

There doesn’t seem much point doing an in-depth review here as the service has been discontinued, so you wouldn’t be able to join up now anyway.

Oh well, another one goes into the failed bin and we hope for better from our next review…

 

 

 

 

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

Strand Each Way – Results Update

8th February 2016

Sadly there has been quite a reversal in form for Strand Each Way since our last update a month ago.

At that point they were a nice 18 points up and moving along rather smoothly.

But since then things have turned sour, with 63 points dropped to leave them at 45 points down overall. 

You can view full results here.

They have also recently changed themselves from Stand Each Way to Strand Win!

Basically you can back their tips either each way or win now, with their preference being win only.

Backing win only over the course of the trial so far would have produced 27 points profit, so at the moment that looks like the better option. 

However, as we started out the trial following the tips each way we will stick to that in the official proofing record.

We will return with our final review soon.

 

 

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

Strand Each Way – Results Update

9th January 2016

It has been more steady if unspectacular progress from Strand Each Way since our last update, with a further six points of profit added.

That means they are 18 points up overall for the trial after almost two months.

You can view full results here.

All bets are simply placed at Betfair, with 1 point on the win and 1 point on the place, so a really easy service to follow.

Back in just over a month’s time with our final report on Strand Each Way. 

 

 

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

Strand Each Way – Results Update

4th December 2015

It has been a solid start so far to our trial of Strand Each Way, the latest service from the Pro Betting Club.

After around 3 weeks of results, they are 12 points up.

You can view full results here.

All selections are simply backed at Betfair SP, which makes things nice and easy. All bets are each way, which of course on Betfair means you have to put one point on the win and one on the place.

To get the selections, you have to log in each day to the website at around 1pm. It would be preferable if selections were e-mailed out to subscribers, so hopefully this is something they will look at in future.

Anyway, so far so good for Strand Each Way. Let’s hope it continues in the same vein.

More results soon.

Strand Each Way – New Review

14th November 2015

Today we are commencing a trial of a horse racing tipster from the reputable Pro Betting Club stables called Strand Each Way.

As the name suggests, this is a service that focuses exclusively on each-way betting.

The other Pro Betting Club service we have reviewed, Win Form Pro, has achieved excellent results so we are hopeful for more of the same from Strand Each Way.

They started tipping in January 2015 and their published results look very impressive, with 159 points profit accumulated so far, which averages out at about 16 points profit per month.

That has been achieved with a nice 40% strike rate (including the placed horses), which means losing runs here shouldn’t be too long and we should be able to build a bank reasonably steadily if results hold up.  

The thing we really like about the service is that all results are quoted at Betfair SP, which means you know you can match their results and could potentially beat them with the use of best odds guaranteed bookmakers.

It is particularly useful for a service that tips each way to use Betfair SP, because the place market on Betfair typically does not offer the same value as backing each-way with the bookies, so you really are getting a fair deal with this tipster.

We aren’t given too many clues as to how the selections are chosen, other than that they are very selective and use an exhaustive set of filters.

Anyway, as ever the main thing is that the results are good, so we will see how they get on during our trial. 

We will be back soon with updates on how things are going. In the meantime you can check out Strand Each Way here.

Football Acca Tips – Final Review

We have reached the end of our three month trial of Football Acca Tips and here are the final results:

 

Profit/loss:    -113 points 
Strike Rate:    16%
Bank Growth:    -75%
ROI:   -40%
Cost:   £1 for first month then £9.99/month

Football Acca Tips – Full Review

 

This has been one of those trials where unfortunately pretty much everything that can go wrong does go wrong. Sometimes that happens in betting when you just hit one of those horror runs and nothing seems to go in your favour.

With the trial finishing 113 points down and losing 75% of the bank, it is difficult to give this anything other than a failed rating.

Here are the results for the trial in graph format:

Football Acca Tips Profit Graph

As you can see, it does somewhat resemble a ski slope with just a small bounce towards the end and the graph represents what was a tough trial. 

However, as a lot of the tips recommended are accumulators, there was always the chance that if one of those had landed then things could have looked a whole lot better.

It’s a bit like golf betting where you can go a long time without a winner and be well down, then one winner at 100/1 completely changes the picture.

So we will keep an eye on things here and see if they can land a big winner or two and turn things around.

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use: The workload is quite low with bets not coming every day, but normally just when there are Premiership/FA Cup matches and Champions League matches. There is a bit of time required to find the best odds for your accumulators, but that can be made quicker via oddschecker’s bet basket feature. 

Availability of prices: Good – with bets being in the Premiership and Champions League, liquidity is obviously good and there are no problems getting the advised prices.

Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 16%, which is obviously well below where it needs to be to make a profit.

Advised Betting Bank: The service uses a 100 point bank which resets at the start of each month (if only that would happen in real life!) but we used a 150 bank for the trial as a whole, which nearly got wiped out, decreasing by 75%.

Subscription costs: The costs are £1 per month followed by £9.99 per month.

 

OVERALL VERDICT: FAILED

Well it’s tough to know what to say when things go this badly. Just one of those things in betting, they have had no luck and hit one of those horror runs.

We intend to keep an eye on things to see if they can land a big winner or two to turn things around, which can easily happen when a service tips at long odds like this one does.

Football Acca Tips – Results Update

13th January 2016

It has been a miserable time for Football Acca Tips since our last update. Unfortunately they have lost a further 63 points since our last update in early December.

That means overall they are 84 points down for the trial after two months.

You can view full results here.

They do tip at big odds for some of their accas – sometimes up to 1,000/1 – so all it takes is one of those to come in and things would turn around dramatically.

We have a month to go in the trial so let’s see if they can land one of those juicy accas and end the trial in profit.

 

 

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

Football Acca Tips – Results Update

2nd December 2015

It’s been a tough start to our trial of Football Acca Tips, who are 21 points down after about three weeks of tips.

You can view full results here.

They have been close with a couple of their accas though, getting 3 out of 4 on two occasions, so things could have easily been better.

They also tip at some big odds – most notably they had one tip at odds of over 5000/1 – definitely the biggest price of any tipping service we have encountered so far here at HBR!

That was for Diego Costa to score first and England to win 2-1 when Spain played England. Didn’t come in obviously, as Spain ran out easy winners in the end.

Anyway, still early days for this service and not many bets to go on so far, so plenty of time to get things back on track.

Back soon more more updates.

Football Acca Tips – New Review

9th November 2015

To date here on Honest Betting Reviews we only have one football betting system that has successfully passed a three-month trial and that is Banker Bets. However, we do have five systems currently under review, so hopefully we will find another one soon. 

Today we are adding another football service to that list and it focuses exclusively on accumulators. The tipster in question is called Football Acca Tips.

Bookies apparently love punters who bet on accumulators – they are often seen as the ultimate “mug punters.”

Hence in the old days before internet betting (those of you old enough to remember that!) bookies used to require a minimum of trebles if you wanted to bet on football.

Can you imagine that?! Not being able to bet on a single team – bookies thought it would be too easy for punters to win.

Well fast forward 20 years and their worries were completely unfounded – even betting just on singles, most punters would still end up losing money. Yes we really are that bad at gambling.

But it did reveal two things:-

  1. That bookies thought punters had less chance of winning when they were backing multiple selections
  2. It showed just how miserable bookies really are.

Whilst recognising the tag of “mug punting” that tends to be associated with backing accumulators, at the same time I think of some of my best gambling wins and a lot of them have been accumulators. Sometimes you just get a nice combination of things you think will happen around the same time. 

For example I had a very nice one recently which included Djokovic to win the US Open, three banker Champions League matches and New Zealand to win the Rugby World Cup. 

All of those sounded quite straightforward and yet I got combined odds of just under 10/1.

And of course they all came in 🙂

So it is with interest that we head into this trial of Football Acca Tips and see if they can make a profit from backing accumulators. 

There don’t seem to be any results published on the website, so we will just have to see how things get on during the trial.

Please check back here for updates.

In the meantime you can check out Football Acca Tips here.
