We have completed our seven‐month live trial of Soccer Bank Builder, a football betting service that aims to grow your bank steadily using a simple one-bet-a-day strategy.
It focuses on high strike-rate, low odds selections typically priced between 1.15 and 1.40. The service covers a range of markets including match odds, over/under goals, double chance and more.
They recommend an approach of staking 10% of the bank on each selection.
We tracked results for both this staking approach and one point level stakes. The results recorded above are for one point level staking.
The 10% staking is an aggressive approach and one we were cautious about from the start. While it can grow a bank rapidly during a winning streak, it also magnifies losses during a downturn – and that volatility certainly played out during our trial.
Performance Summary
In terms of strike rate, the service did exactly what it set out to do – maintaining a very healthy 75% win rate during our trial.
However, despite this, the service ended 3 points down overall at level stakes and recorded a 15% loss in bank using the advised 10% staking.
There were several swings throughout the trial, with the 10% staking approach showing impressive growth at times (up as much as 29 points at one stage), but ultimately a run of losers hit hard, and the bank steadily declined in the final few months.
This confirmed what we suspected going in – while high strike rate systems using percentage staking can be appealing, they’re very sensitive to short losing runs, especially with something as aggressive as 10% stakes.
The recalculation of stakes after every bet meant that even a small dip could lead to disproportionately larger losses, which is exactly what we saw during the trial.
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: The selections are sent out via e-mail, sometimes in the morning and sometimes in the afternoon on the day of matches.
On the plus side, the service is very easy to follow, with just one bet a day and no confusing write-ups or complex analysis.
It’s also time-friendly – ideal for those who don’t want to be glued to their phone or computer waiting for multiple bets.
Availability of prices: Price availability was not an issue during our trial as the markets tipped in are very liquid and it would take a huge amount of money to shift markets when you backing big favourites at odds of around 1.2-1.4 in football matches.
Strike rate: The strike rate for our trial was good on the face of it at 75% but would have needed to be a little higher to generate a profit at the odds tipped at.
Advised Betting Bank: As discussed above, a 10% staking approach is recommended for following the service, which we consider a little too aggressive and did result in some sustained losses.
Utilising a one-point level stakes approach, we used a 20 point bank which seemed more sensible to us.
Subscription costs: The subscription costs at the time of writing are a free 7 day trial followed by a subscription of £19.99 per month.
OVERALL VERDICT: NEUTRAL
Overall then, Soccer Bank Builder proved to be a solid but ultimately underwhelming performer during our trial.
The high strike rate is commendable and the simplicity of the service is certainly attractive, but it made a loss at both level stakes and 10% staking, with the latter performing notably worse during our trial.
We’re awarding Soccer Bank Builder a NEUTRAL rating for now. With some tweaks – such as lowering the stake to 5% or switching to level staking – this could be a service worth revisiting in the future. But as things stand, it simply did not perform well enough in our trial to warrant a higher rating.
Just a slight decline for football betting service Soccer Bank Builder over the last month, with a loss of 0.66 points made to 1-point level stakes since our last update.
That means they are now 0.13 points up for our trial overall at 1-point level stakes.
Starting with a 100 point bank and staking 10% of the bank on each bet, they have made a loss of 11 points since our last update and are 19 points down for our trial to date.
As mentioned in previous updates, this shows again the greater volatility you get with a percentage staking approach versus level stakes.
It’s great when it’s going well but the dips will be greater when things turn against you.
There’s been a small drop for football betting service Soccer Bank Builder lately, with a loss of 2.38 points made to 1-point level stakes since our last update.
That means they are now 0.79 points up for our trial overall at 1-point level stakes.
Staking 10% of the bank on each bet, they have made a loss of 29 points since our last update and are 8 points down for our trial to date.
So this illustrates once again what we have been talking about in previous updates in terms of a run of losers hitting the 10% staking approach more than level stakes.
Whilst level stakes has made just a small loss since our last update, the 10% staking has suffered a significant hit.
That’s the risk you take with it – when things are going well it can really snowball but a few losers can hit the bank quite hard.
It’s been a good time lately for football betting service Soccer Bank Builder, with a profit of 2.75 points made to 1-point level stakes since our last update.
That means they are now 3.26 points up for our trial overall at 1-point level stakes.
Staking 10% of the bank on each bet, they have made 28 points profit since our last update and are 29 points up for our trial to date.
So you can really see the difference now in the 10% staking approach versus level stakes. When you get on a run of winners like they have done lately then the bank can really grow quickly with the 10% staking approach.
Obviously on the downside a run of losers can hit the bank hard but for the moment the 10% staking approach is working well.
It’s been a pretty level start to our trial of football betting service Soccer Bank Builder, with a profit of 0.51 points made so far to 1-point level stakes after one month.
We are starting a new trial today of a football betting service called Soccer Bank Builder.
This is a strategy that claims to have turned £100 into £926 in just 9 months.
It says it has done this through a careful one bet a day strategy aimed to steadily grow the betting bank.
It uses a staking system of 10% of the bank on each bet and then recalculating the stake after every bet.
That is quite an aggressive approach and whilst on the one hand we can see how that might be able to turn £100 into over £900 in the space of 9 months, it is also risky.
We have seen similar approaches go close to going bust so it might be more prudent to use a lower stake (say 5%) on each bet.
In any event, for the purposes of our review we will use the 10% staking approach and also record results to one-point level stakes as usual.
It looks like the bets will be mainly at very short odds, which makes sense with the staking plan so hopefully the strike rate will also be high.
At one bet a day it should be nice and simple to follow so let’s see how it gets on under live trial conditions.
We will kick things off today and will report back soon here on how it’s getting on.

Hanbury Racing Tipsis a horse racing tipping service providing selections – often at high odds – for UK and Irish racing.
The selections for Hanbury Racing Tips are provided by a chap called Richard Hutchinson who won the Tote Ten To Follow Jumps competition in 2020. In doing so he captured the £10,000 March monthly prize and also the £177,000 first prize, so in total over £188,000 for his syndicate.
We followed his tips for an extended seven month trial, in which time we proofed over 450 bets.
And after that extended trial we are pleased to report that the results were excellent, with a total profit of 238 points made at advised prices.
That was achieved with an excellent return on investment (ROI) of 27% and a solid strike rate of 21% (including placed horses).
Richard has a penchant for high odds selections and there were a number of 100/1 shots picked and a lot at 66/1 and other big prices too.
Amazingly, one of the 100/1 shots actually won during our trial and a 150/1 came second towards the end of our trial – but tipped each way it still returned a healthy 29 points profit.
So in terms of the results at advised prices, this was one of the best horse racing trials we have run for a while.
One thing to be aware of though is that there was a wide discrepancy between the results at advised prices and those at Betfair SP, with the latter actually making an 89 point loss for our trial.
That difference was down in large part to one tip – Danilo D’Airy – which won at advised odds of 100/1. With a small rule 4 deduction included, it returned 106 points at advised prices from a one point each-way bet.
However, at Betfair SP it went off at just 12.53, returning just under 14 points profit, so a massive difference there.
Excluding this rather exceptional selection from the results though, you would still get results of 132 points profit at advised prices versus a 103 point loss at BSP.
So whichever way you slice it this doesn’t look like a service you can follow at Betfair SP and is one you would need bookie accounts for.
If you do have bookie accounts though it has been an excellent trial as we say and well worthy of a PASSED rating.
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: The tips are sent by e-mail, normally the evening before racing with a few early in the morning on the day of racing. With around 2-3 bets per day on average it’s not too onerous to follow.
Availability of prices: As Richard tips at very big odds the prices tend to be pretty sensitive so it is advisable to get your bets on as soon as possible. Quite often the big prices get smashed in by the time of the race. And as mentioned above, it does not look like the service is practical to follow at Betfair SP so you will need access to bookie accounts to make it practical to follow the service.
Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 21%, which is pretty good when you consider the odds tipped at.
Advised Betting Bank: A 210 point betting bank was advised for following the service and that seems about right to us.
Subscription costs: The subscription costs at the time of writing are£4.99 for the first 14 days then £36.99 per month.
OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED
Hanbury Racing Tips is a horse racing service that provides tips at high odds on UK and Irish racing. They came into our trial with a strong reputation and for once we can say they fully lived up to it, amassing a superb 238 points profit at advised prices. The ROI was also excellent at 27%.
The only thing to note is that it doesn’t look like the service is practical to follow at Betfair SP, as they actually made a loss at BSP for our trial.
Please note they are offering a 25% discount on subscriptions for Honest Betting Reviews visitors – please use the code honest25 at checkout.
As mentioned in previous updates it’s not quite such a bright picture at Betfair SP though, with a profit of 17 points made since our last update but 81 points lost for our trial overall at BSP.
There have been excellent winners over the last month at prices of 25/1, 16/1, 14/1 and 33/1, as well as lot of big-priced place finishes.
Top stuff and well done to Richard who runs the service.
As mentioned in previous updates it’s a very different picture at Betfair SP though, with a loss of 48 points made since our last update and 98 points lost for our trial overall at BSP.
Even taking into account the one selection that was tipped at 100/1 but went off at 12.53 BSP, that is still one of the biggest differences we have seen between advised prices and BSP in one of our trials.
That may be down in part to them tipping the evening before racing and looking for value at big prices which then get punted in by the off.
Whatever the reason though this is definitely looking like a service you need bookie accounts to follow.
As mentioned in previous updates it’s a very different picture however at Betfair SP, with 21 points profit made since our last update but 50 points lost for our trial overall at BSP.
So it very much looks like this is not a service to follow if you are restricted to the exchanges – bookie accounts are needed.
If you have bookie accounts then it’s looking like a top service.
As mentioned last time it’s a very different picture however at Betfair SP, with another 23 points lost since our last update and 71 points lost for our trial overall at BSP.
So it very much looks like this is not a service to follow if you are restricted to the exchanges – bookie accounts are needed.
In fact we can’t remember seeing such a big discrepancy between results at advised prices and those at Betfair SP before, although as mentioned last time a large part of this is due to one winner which was advised at 100/1 but went off a BSP of just 12.53.
Anyway, just to mention as well that Hanbury Racing won our tipster of the month award last month, belatedly added after they were mistakenly overlooked in our original post. So congrats to them on the win.
It is quite a different story however at Betfair SP, as they are actually 48 points down for our trial so far at BSP.
That is down in large part to just one tip – Danilo D’Airy – which won at advised odds of 100/1. With a small rule 4 deduction included, it returned 106 points at advised prices from a one point each-way bet.
However, at Betfair SP it went off at just 12.53, returning just under 14 points profit, so a massive difference there obviously. That fits the definition of a horse that was “smashed in” if ever there was one!
Whether that was just a one-off or not we will have to wait and see, but so far it is looking like this is a service you will need access to bookie accounts to get the most out of.
Today we are starting a new review of a horse racing service called Hanbury Racing Tips.
This comes from a new tipster platform called Mega Tipsters.
The selections for Hanbury Racing Tips come from a chap called Richard Hutchinson who won the Tote Ten To Follow Jumps competition in 2020. In doing so he captured the £10,000 March monthly prize and also the £177,000 first prize, so in total over £188,000 for his syndicate.
In addition, Richard finished 9th in 2009 and had a runner in the Grand National. With these kind of results, it was only natural for him to turn his attention to running a professional tipping service, and that is what he has done at Mega Tipsters.
Richard has been following racing for over 30 years and studies form the closely, watching a huge amount of racing to aid his selection process. He specialises in both grade 1 horses and well-handicapped types. Either way Richard spends many hours studying the form before sending out his tips.
The results since Richard starting tipping in May 2020 look very impressive, with a profit of over 660 points made at a superb ROI of 39.5%.
That works out at over £16,000 profit at £25 per point stakes and over £1500 per month profit.
The focus at Hanbury Racing is on long-shot selections, with massive winners at prices of 66/1, 50/1, 33/1, 28/1, 22/1 having been achieved to date. And amazingly they just hit a 150/1 winner a couple of weeks ago!
Whilst that has provided exceptional returns – and plenty of excitement – to date, it also means a substantial betting bank is needed and a 225 point bank is recommended.
Overall then this looks like a very promising service and we are looking forward to seeing how it gets on. We started receiving tips on 13th April so will record selections from then. As usual we will update things as we along here.
We are starting a new review today of a service called Renegade Racing.
This is a horse racing tipster from the Betting Gods stable of tipsters and although it has only been going a short time, has caused quite a stir in the tipping community.
The results since starting up in November last year have been stellar, with a profit of 54 points made to date.
That has been achieved with exceptional stats of a 36% ROI and 62% strike rate.
Those metrics are pretty outstanding and will be hard to maintain in the long run – although anything even vaguely close to those will still be very impressive.
Follow the service at Betfair SP and you would have boosted the profits by a further 55% so far. We are interested to see if that continues during our trial.
The service has been on red hot form since launch, with 26 of the last 35 bets having won.
We haven’t seen a tipster start off this well for quite some time.
However, it’s important not to get too carried away with these promising early results and to see how the service performs over the next few months under live trial conditions.
So we will get things underway today and will include results from 14th February when we started receiving tips.
We will update things here as we go along as usual.

The Golf Betting Club is a well-established golf tipping service, having been in operation since 2020.
This service is run by Duncan and Neil, two brothers from Scotland. They developed a keen interest in golf betting during their upbringing, influenced by their father’s career as a golf journalist for well-known UK newspapers.
Tips are sent out via Telegram and cover the PGA, DP World and LIV tours and include both pre-tournament and in-play tips (between rounds).
Over the years, they have built a strong reputation for their in-depth player profiling and detailed tournament analysis.
Prior to our trial, their historical results were impressive, with profits totaling 779 points and an ROI of 16%.
However, our nine-month review painted a more mixed picture.
Performance During the Trial
The trial got off to a rough start, with significant losses accumulating early on. At one point, they were down by 196 points, making it a tough period for subscribers.
Golf betting, by its nature, can involve long losing streaks, particularly when betting at high odds, and this was certainly the case here.
Things did improve towards the end of the trial, with a couple of big-priced winners such as Paul Waring at 50/1 and Nick Taylor at 100/1 helping to claw back some of the losses.
Despite this late rally, the service still ended the trial 17 points down overall.
However, they had numerous heartbreaking near-misses, including two in just the last couple of weeks. Pablo Larrazabal only needed to two-putt the final green to win the Bahrain Championship for them at 200/1, but managed to three-putt and then lost in a playoff.
And just this past weekend, Aldrich Potgieter looked a dead-cert winner at 60/1 in the Mexico Open whilst in a playoff, as his opponent’s ball looked to be sailing well out of bounds, which would have handed Potgieter victory. However, the ball somehow miraculously ricocheted back into play and the opponent produced a career-defining birdie to win.
There were numerous close shaves like this throughout the trial and whilst you can’t expect all of them to go your way, if just one of them had done so it would have ended in a profitable trial – well in profit in fact given the prices tipped at.
And if two or three of them had done so we could easily be looking at a very profitable trial.
As it is they have finished with a small loss of 17 points, but out of a 500-point bank that represents just a 3% loss of the bank nothing to get too downhearted about.
Overall we think the only fair rating here can be a NEUTRAL rating, but it could have so easily been a very profitable trial so we will keep an eye on the service going forward as we do think the brothers have an edge on the golf markets given their long-term results and they could be due an upgrade in future if the luck starts to go their way a bit.
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: The selections are sent out via the Telegram messenger app, usually on a Wednesday for pre-tournament bets and then on an ad-hoc basis during rounds. There are around 12 bets per week, so a reasonable, but manageable, workload.
Availability of prices: Price availability was not an issue during our trial as they generally tip on Wednesdays when there is plenty of liquidity and the markets have settled (and then during the event when there is also usually plenty of liquidity).
As with most golf services, there is also the option to beat the win part of each-way bets by using the exchanges, with Betfair often offering much higher prices for the win on 100/1+ shots. You generally get a little worse odds on the place part, but that is more than compensated by the occasional winner at huge odds.
Strike rate: The strike rate for our trial was quite low on the face of it at 11% (including placed golfers), but that isn’t unusual for golf services and as we discussed above, just one or two breaks going their way and they would have finished well in profit even with an 11% strike rate.
Advised Betting Bank: A 500 point betting bank is recommended for following the service. That seems very reasonable to us and was never in jeopardy during our trial.
Subscription costs: The subscription costs at the time of writing are free until the 30th March 2025.
OVERALL VERDICT: NEUTRAL
The Golf Betting Club had somewhat of a tough trial, but the fine margins of golf betting were evident, with several close calls that could have significantly changed the results.
While they finished slightly down with a 17 point loss, the overall deficit was minor in the context of their betting bank.
Given their strong long-term record and in-depth analysis, they remain a service to keep an eye on, and with a bit more luck, could easily return to profitability in future.
We’d been saying for a while that just landing one big winner could turn things around and they have now done it not just once but twice, with Nick Taylor winning the Sony Open in a playoff for them at 100/1, following on from 50/1 winner Paul Waring in November.
The profits from that 100/1 winner have been somewhat eroded by other losses on the month, but they are still making steady progress on reducing the large deficit they racked up earlier on in our trial.
Just to also note that given last year’s losses they are currently offering free membership until 30th March 2025.
Recent highlights include Paul Waring winning the Abu Dhabi Championship at 50/1 and Ryan Van Velzen placing at the Alfred Dunhill Championship at 350/1.
However, things could have been so much better with Van Velzen needing a birdie up the par-5 last to win, or a par for a playoff but managing to finish with a bogey.
The week before they also had Aldrich Potgieter at 100/1 who had a three shot lead on the back nine but somehow failed to win.
It’s often fine margins in sports betting but it’s particularly jarring in instances like this when you’re backing 350/1 and 100/1 shots who just miss out. They can really make or break a year’s betting.
There isn’t much to say really other than that they could really do with a big winner or two…
That’s golf betting though in a nutshell – the losing streaks can be pretty savage, especially when tipping at average odds of over 100/1 as these guys do.
It can all turn around quickly though with a big winner so fingers crossed they can land one (or two) soon.
As we so often say with golf betting, it only takes one winner at a big price to turn things around and given they tip at prices up to 300/1 and 400/1, one of those coming in really would turn things around!
Whether it’s at a huge price like that or something smaller, they could certainly do with a winner or two soon.
We are starting a new review today of a golf tipping service called the Golf Betting Club.
This service is run by Duncan and Neil, two brothers hailing from Scotland. They developed a keen interest in tour predictions and golf betting during their upbringing, influenced by their father’s career as a golf journalist for renowned UK newspapers.
Their summers were often spent attending events at prestigious venues such as Loch Lomond, Gleneagles, Wentworth, and various Open Championship locations, immersing themselves in the sport.
Their journey in golf betting spans over two decades, but the inception of the Golf Betting Club occurred in March 2020, amidst the temporary halt in professional golf caused by the Coronavirus pandemic. Utilizing this hiatus, they pooled their extensive knowledge to craft free golf betting tips accessible to all.
Drawing from years of experience, they meticulously crafted over 100 player profiles of the world’s top golfers, constantly refining and expanding their database.
This has resulted in very strong performance to date, with a profit of 779 points made so far since starting up in 2020.
That has been achieved with a return on investment (ROI) of 16%.
Each year so far has been profitable, with the standout year being 2020 when they made 366 points profit.
Last year was also a good one with 167 points profit made and this year has started well too with 22 points profit made so far.
Tips are provided in the PGA, DP World and LIV tours and include both pre-tournament and in-play tips (normally between rounds).
With a strong reputation this is a service we are looking forward to reviewing so we will kick things off (or should that be tee things off?) today.
Results will be updated here as we go along as usual so you can see how they are getting on.
N.B. – sign up to a 6 or 12 month membership of Golf Betting Club quoting ‘HonestBettingReviews25’ and they’ll refund £25 as a discount.

We have come to the end of our four-month trial of Insider Edge Bets and it’s time to wrap up with our final thoughts.
This service covers both horse racing and greyhounds, with bets sent out via Telegram, typically around 4 selections per day.
It claims to be based on “insider” information from a network of industry contacts, including trainers and owners.
While we’re often sceptical about such claims, this time we may have found a rare case where it’s actually worth taking seriously.
So how did it get on during our live trial?
Results
Over the course of the trial, the service delivered some very strong results.
A total profit of +148 points was made at advised prices, representing a bank growth of 99% and an ROI (return on investment) of 26%.
The strike rate came in at 33% (including places selections), which is perfectly respectable given the kind of prices they’re tipping at – often in the 3/1 to 6/1 range and higher.
These are very impressive figures as we say. Nearly doubling the bank in just four months is no mean feat and puts this service firmly in the “serious profit-maker” category.
However, there are a few important things to break down in the results.
Greyhounds vs Horse Racing
Perhaps the most striking aspect of this trial was where the profits came from:
Greyhounds: +139 points
Horse Racing: +9 points
So, while the service covers both sports, it’s fair to say that the greyhound tips have done the heavy lifting.
Now, this brings us to one of the main caveats with Insider Edge Bets…
The Price Crash Problem
The prices on the greyhound tips get smashed in very quickly. We’re talking some of the fastest price moves we’ve seen in a trial here at HBR.
A dog tipped at 9/2 can be cut to 9/4 in a matter of minutes after the tip is released. That means you need to:
Have a spread of active bookmaker accounts (Bet365, Skybet, Ladbrokes, Coral etc are key).
Be fast – have the greyhound markets open and ready before tips are posted.
Ideally be set up to act the moment the alert comes through.
They do provide a short warning before a tip is released, which is helpful, but if you’re slow or only using Betfair SP (BSP), your results could be very different.
There is also the risk of bookie account restrictions or closures with tips such as these that are heavily backed – particularly the greyhound tips.
Betfair SP Results
We tracked BSP alongside advised prices during the trial. Here’s how that looked:
Greyhounds BSP: +11 points
Horses BSP: -7 points
So, while BSP has been profitable on greyhounds, it’s only a fraction of the advised price profit.
It’s a possible fallback if you don’t want to use bookies, but clearly not ideal.
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: Insider Edge Bets delivers selections via a private Telegram channel, at various times during the day. The tips are easy to follow and clearly laid out with the selection, odds, bookmaker, and stake.
There’s usually a short alert a few minutes before tips are posted, which gives you time to log in to your bookie accounts and get prepared.
That said, you do need to be available at the time tips are released and act quickly, particularly for greyhounds, as prices move extremely fast. If you’re someone who can’t be at your phone or computer at those times, you may struggle to match the advised prices consistently.
Availability of prices: This is probably the biggest challenge with the service. As mentioned in the main review, the greyhound prices get hammered within minutes of being released – in some cases slashed by as much as 50%.
If you’re not lightning-quick or if you only have access to one or two bookie accounts, it’s unlikely you’ll consistently get the advertised odds. Over time, this could result in a significant drop in your profits compared to the official results.
That said, some members have reported still doing well even when getting a few ticks worse, and the BSP results for greyhounds did show a modest profit.
But to match the headline results, quick reactions and multiple bookmaker accounts are essential. The other issue you may face is having your bookie accounts restricted or closed if you are following these tips for an extended period of time.
Strike rate: The strike rate during our trial was 33%, which is quite solid considering the prices tipped are often in the 3/1 to 6/1 range and beyond.
It helped keep drawdowns fairly manageable and ensured a good rhythm of regular winners. It’s not a high strike-rate service, so there will be losing runs, but the average odds mean the profits soon catch up.
Advised Betting Bank: No official bank size is advised by the service, so for the purposes of our trial we used a 150-point bank, which we feel is reasonable given the volume of bets and the range of odds.
The maximum drawdown during our trial was around 24 points, so a 150-point bank would have provided ample cover for variance while allowing for healthy compounding as profits grew.
Subscription costs: The service offers a free 3-day trial, after which it’s £25 per month. There are also options to sign up for £50 for 3 months or £250 for lifetime.
Given the results achieved during our trial – and even allowing for some reduction in returns due to price movement – this represents good value for money. Just bear in mind you’ll need to be actively engaged and ready to bet quickly to get the most from your subscription.
OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED
There’s no question this is a high-quality service with serious profit potential – particularly on the greyhound side.
If you can get the advised prices, this is one of the most lucrative tipsters we’ve trialled in recent times. The ROI of 26% and bank growth of 99% speak for themselves.
However, it does come with a warning: to follow the service successfully, you’ll need fast fingers, unrestricted bookie accounts, and preferably access to multiple firms. And there is always the risk of bookie account closures or restrictions when following heavily-backed tips like these.
As long as you aware of those things going in and can handle them though, Insider Edge Bets is a service well worth adding to your portfolio.
Yet more strong progress (at advised prices at least) for horse racing & greyhound service Insider Edge Bets, with a profit of 29 points made to advised prices since our last update.
That means they are now 148 points up at advised prices for our trial overall.
As mentioned in previous updates, it’s important to break down the results here as there are some key points to note.
Firstly, the discrepancy between the horse racing and greyhound results at advised prices continues, with the net P/L for both for our trial so far being:
Horse racing: +9 points
Greyhounds: +139 points
(You can see the results broken down by sport in the tabs at the bottom of our results spreadsheet).
So as you can see, virtually all the profit for our trial to date has come from the greyhounds.
And as mentioned last time, the prices on the greyhounds do get hit very hard.
The Betfair SP results for the two sports for our trial to date are:
Horses: -7 points
Greyhounds: +11 points
So the jury is still out on whether it is viable to follow the greyhound selections at Betfair SP, but what is clear is that there is a big advantage to being able to use bookie accounts – presuming you can get the prices of course.
Things continue to move along nicely (at advised prices at least) for horse racing & greyhound service Insider Edge Bets, with a profit of 58 points made to advised prices since our last update.
That means they are now 119 points up at advised prices for our trial overall.
As mentioned last time, there’s a lot to unpick with this service.
Firstly, there has been a big discrepancy thus far between the horse racing and greyhound results at advised prices:
Horse racing: +3 points
Greyhounds: +115 points
(You can see the results broken down by sport in the tabs at the bottom of our results spreadsheet).
So as you can see, virtually all the profit for our trial to date has come from the greyhounds.
And as mentioned last time, the prices on the greyhounds get absolutely pulverised.
The Betfair SP results for the two sports for our trial to date are:
Horses: -5 points
Greyhounds: +18 points
So on the one hand that illustrates how severely prices get hammered, but on the other hand indicates there might be some scope to follow the greyhound selections at Betfair.
We stress “might” because +18 points isn’t conclusive so far, but is something to be monitored in any event.
As to following the tips at the bookies, whilst the headline results are very good it does come with a health warning that you would be at risk of bookie restrictions if following these tips, particularly the greyhound ones.
It’s been a good start to our trial of horse racing & greyhound service Insider Edge Bets, with a profit of 61 points made for our trial so far to advised prices.
This is a very interesting service and there’s a lot to unpack so we’ll do our best to summarise our findings so far:
Firstly, there has been a big discrepancy thus far between the horse racing and greyhound results at advised prices:
Horse racing: -17 points
Greyhounds: +78 points
(You can see the results broken down by sport in the tabs at the bottom of our results spreadsheet).
So as you can see, all the profit for our trial to date has come from the greyhounds.
Secondly, the prices on the greyhounds get absolutely hammered. And quickly.
These are some of the fastest price cuts we have seen in a review for quite a while.
It is not unusual to see a dog recommended at 9/2 for example get cut to 9/4, 2/1, even 6/4, within minutes of the tip being posted.
So to get anywhere near the advised prices, you need a good spread of bookie accounts (e.g. Bet365, Skybet, Ladbrokes/Coral, Wills etc) and you need to work very fast once tips are posted on Telegram.
You really need to have your bookie sites open on the greyhound page and accounts funded ready for the tip to be sent. Fortunately they do post a warning that a tips is coming a few minutes before to give you the chance to prepare.
Thirdly, the Betfair SP results for the greyhound tips – whilst significantly below those at advised prices, have still been profitable so far with 22 points made at BSP for our trial to date.
It will be very interesting to see if they continue to be profitable at BSP because this could be a viable way to follow the service for those without bookie accounts (or those not wanting to risk their bookie accounts being restricted). So watch this space on that one.
Finally of note is that the horse racing results have actually been doing better at Betfair SP than the advised prices in our trial to date, with a loss of 11 points made at BSP versus -17 points at advised prices.
So again it will be interesting to see if that holds up for the remainder of our trial.
We are starting a new review today of a horse racing and greyhound service called Insider Edge Bets.
Insider Edge Betting was apparently born from a collective vision among a group of industry professionals, aiming to give bettors a clear edge over bookmakers.
They saw the demand for a trustworthy platform where betting becomes a calculated, strategic pursuit, driven by expert knowledge and thorough analysis.
Leveraging years of experience from both the betting industry and ownership side, they say they’ve developed their expertise and built a vast network of respected contacts, including trainers and owners of horses and greyhounds.
They say these contacts regularly supply them with insider information on key ‘gambles’ in a sport where such opportunities are abundant.
Regular readers will know we are usually sceptical about tipsters claiming to be in receipt of “insider information,” as most of the time the claims are false, or if the tipsters are receiving inside info then that info isn’t very good, as they still make a loss.
However, this might just be one of those occasions when it should be taken seriously.
We have heard good things about this service from trusted sources and the results to date look very encouraging.
Since starting up at the beginning of the year, they have made over 360 points profit.
Every month so far has been profitable and some have seen over 50 points profit made.
It’s quite unusual to see a service covering both horse racing and greyhounds but they seem to make it work.
It provides more bet volume of course and perhaps the chance to accumulate more profit than just focusing on one sport.
In any event, this is certainly one of the more intriguing services we have come across in a while so it will be very interesting to see how it performs under a live trial.
So we will get things underway and will report back here soon as usual on how they are getting on.
Lucrative Rackets is a tennis betting service launched in early 2024 by the team behind Lucrative MMA Betting, which previously passed a trial here at Honest Betting Reviews with flying colours.
Tips are provided across various tennis tours, including down to the lower levels of Challenger and ITF events.
Most of the bets are in the match odds market but some side markets such as set score, handicap and the like are used.
Bets are sent via the Telegram messenger app.
We were hopeful that this service would deliver strong results, and overall, we are pleased to say that it has performed well.
During our four-month trial, Lucrative Rackets generated +17 points profit at a solid 59% strike rate and a 12% ROI.
These are commendable numbers in tennis betting, where achieving consistent profitability can be challenging.
Our Experience During the Trial
Our major concern with this service was price availability however.
Just over half the bets during our trial were in Challenger/ITF events and over half were in doubles matches, with quite a small proportion in singles ATP/WTA events.
There were some major odds movements on these more illiquid markets. For instance, prices could drop significantly within minutes on ITF doubles and Challenger-level matches.
Betting on these markets also brings the risk of account restrictions from the bookies and these markets are not typically available on the exchanges – or have very little liquidity if they are available.
So we do have a question mark about how practical this service is to follow. Certainly if you are following the service you need to be lightning fast to get the bets on and be prepared for some possible account restrictions.
It is also worth noting that on the – albeit limited – sample size of our trial, the profit for the trial did come from the Challenger/ITF events, whilst the ATP/WTA events ended up breaking even.
As we say, this was a relatively small sample size so may not be the case in the long run, but is something to note from our trial in any event.
Overall, we are prepared to give Lucrative Rackets a narrow PASSED rating as it did achieve positive results during our trial.
The strike rate, ROI, and overall bank growth were all commendable and clearly the tipster does have an edge in the markets tipped in.
However, this does come with a major health warning that a lot of the markets tipped in are illiquid and odds crash quickly.
So it is important to bear this in mind and be prepared to act quickly when receiving the tips if you want to get close to the advised prices.
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: The selections are sent out via the Telegram messenger app. There is normally plenty of time to get the bets on and with around 1-2 bets per day on average the workload is pretty manageable.
Availability of prices: As discussed above, price availability was an issue during our trial, with over half the tips coming in illiquid, lower tier events and doubles matches.
The first thing you will need is a good spread of bookmaker accounts (especially Bet365, but also the likes of Ladbrokes, DraftKings, Neds, Bovada & 10Bet would be useful), secondly to be able to act very quickly once tips are posted on Telegram, and thirdly be prepared that you may suffer account restrictions if using soft books like Bet365.
Strike rate: The strike rate for our trial was impressive at 59% and we didn’t experience any extended drawdowns during our trial which was good.
Advised Betting Bank: A 100 point betting bank is recommended for following the service. That seems fairly reasonable to us and was never in jeopardy during our trial.
Subscription costs: The subscription costs at the time of writing are £67, so this is probably a service for serious bettors in the main.
OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED
Lucrative Rackets delivered a solid performance in our trial, generating +17 points profit, a 12% ROI, and a 59% strike rate.
However, the heavy focus on illiquid markets like ITF and Challenger doubles matches makes it tough to obtain advised prices, and account restrictions could be an issue.
While the tipster appears to have an edge, success will largely depend on how quickly you can place bets and whether you have access to the necessary bookmaker accounts.
Overall, we are giving Lucrative Rackets a narrow PASSED rating, but with a strong caution regarding price availability.
As mentioned last time, prices tend to get hit pretty hard on the more illiquid markets such as ITF doubles matches.
You have to move very fast if you want to get anything like the advised prices on those bets.
Some of the tips are in more mainstream ATP and WTA matches where the odds are more achievable however, so it’s a question of just doing the best you can on each tip with this service really.
It’s a quiet period for this service at the moment with no bets in December as the tennis season has wound down, but they will be back up and running again in January for the events down under.
As mentioned last time, prices tend to get hit pretty hard on the more illiquid markets such as ITF doubles matches.

We are starting a new review today of a tennis betting service called Lucrative Rackets.
This is a service that started up on 1st January this year and it comes from the same team behind the Lucrative MMA Betting Tipster service, which passed a trial here at HBR with flying colours back in 2022.
The new tennis service has produced some impressive results so far, with 92 points profit made at a strike rate of 60% and a return on investment (ROI) of 18%.
Those are really strong stats in tennis betting, where an ROI of between 5 and 10% is typically considered very good.
The tips come in a variety of tours, including the main ATP and WTA Tours but also the smaller ITF events and in doubles matches as well as singles.
A variety of markets are also used, including match odds, game handicaps, set betting, breaks of serve and more.
Members of the service receive the tips via the Telegram app, with advised odds and lowest acceptable odds included.
We have been looking out for a good tennis tipster for a while so let’s hope this one can deliver the goods under live trial conditions.
We started receiving tips on 30th August so will record results from then.
As usual we will update results here as we go along so you can see how they are getting on.
The Bet Professor is a horse racing tipster that operates under the Punt Hub umbrella, and after an extended review period, it has delivered very impressive results.
With a total profit of +292 points at advised prices, the service has demonstrated strong profitability over the course of our trial.
This equates to an impressive 292% bank growth, meaning that a starting bank would have nearly quadrupled during the trial period.
One of the key metrics we look at is Return on Investment (ROI), and The Bet Professor has managed to maintain a solid 11% ROI, which is a very respectable return for a horse racing service over a period of more than two years.
This suggests that the selections consistently find value, which is a crucial factor for long-term betting success.
Bet Volume and Strike Rate
The service provides a manageable 1-2 bets per day, which makes it easy to follow compared to some tipsters that require placing dozens of bets daily.
The strike rate of 16% is on the lower side, which is typical for a service that focuses on bigger-priced selections. This means there will be losing streaks, so patience and a disciplined staking plan are essential.
Bookmaker vs. Betfair SP Performance
One notable finding from our review is that The Bet Professor performs significantly better at advised prices than at Betfair Starting Price (BSP).
Throughout the trial, we observed a consistent disparity between advised prices and BSP, with the latter lagging well behind.
In fact, Betfair SP followers would have suffered a loss of 66 points, whereas those taking advised prices at bookmakers have enjoyed substantial profits.
This suggests that the service is finding strong closing line value (CLV), meaning odds tend to shorten after selections are tipped, a positive indicator of an edge over the market.
However, it also means that access to multiple bookmaker accounts is necessary to get the best possible returns.
We are also being more mindful these days of price availability and whether those with bookie accounts can achieve the advised prices.
For the majority of our trial most of the tips were sent out the night before racing, when markets are thin and it can be tough to get bets on.
Over the last few months they have switched to the morning of racing which is a welcome change but it remains to be seen if they can maintain the previous profit levels now they are tipping in the morning.
Overall we are happy to award the service a PASSED rating as it delivered impressive and consistent results over the course of more than two years.
However, it does come with the slight caveat that bookie accounts are needed and for most of the trial tips were sent out the night before racing.
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: The selections are sent out e-mail, as we say on the morning of racing these days. There is plenty of time to get the bets on and with around 1-2 bets per day on average the workload is pretty manageable.
Availability of prices: Price availability was a bit of an issue during most of our trial, as discussed above regarding tips being sent out the evening before racing. Often prices would contract quite considerably by the time of the race. This is less of an issue now that tips are sent in the morning but it remains to be seen if the previous profit levels can be maintained.
Strike rate: The strike rate for our trial was a little on the low side at 16% but we didn’t experience any extended drawdowns during our trial which was good.
Advised Betting Bank: A 100 point betting bank is recommended for following the service. That seems fairly reasonable to us and was never in jeopardy during our trial.
Subscription costs: The subscription costs at the time of writing are £10 for first month then £25 per month or £60 quarter if paying by Paypal or £30 per month if paying by credit card.
OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED
Overall, The Bet Professor has produced impressive results and passes our review. The profit of +292 points, combined with strong bank growth and a solid ROI, makes it a very promising tipster service.
The main caveat is that it is not viable at BSP, so bookmaker accounts are required to follow the selections successfully and most of the profits were made from early prices the evening before racing.
So we’ll have to see if the results hold up in the long run now they are taking morning prices, but certainly up to now the results have been impressive overall.
The Betfair SP results continue to trail well behind those at advised prices, with a loss of 34 points made since our last update and 74 points lost for our trial to date at BSP.
So we would not recommend following this tipster at Betfair SP – it is only to follow them at the bookmakers.
However, the results do indicate they are achieving strong CLV (closing line value) which is a good sign of being able to find value in their selections.
The Betfair SP results continue to trail well behind those at advised prices, with 12 points profit made since our last update and 40 points lost for our trial to date at BSP.
So as mentioned before this is not a strategy to follow at Betfair SP and bookie accounts are needed if you want to use the service.
The Betfair SP results continue to trail well behind those at advised prices, with 10 points lost since our last update and 52 points lost for our trial to date at BSP.
So as mentioned before this is not a strategy to follow at Betfair SP and bookie accounts are needed if you want to use the service.
The Betfair SP results have been moving in the right direction but continue to trail well behind those at advised prices, with 16 points profit made since our last update but 42 points lost for our trial to date at BSP.
So as mentioned before this is not a strategy to follow at Betfair SP and bookie accounts are needed if you want to use the service.
The Betfair SP results have been doing a little better lately but continue to trail well behind those at advised prices, with 18 points profit made since our last update but 58 points lost for our trial to date at BSP.
So as mentioned before this is not a strategy to follow at Betfair SP and bookie accounts are needed if you want to use the service.
The Betfair SP results have been doing a little better lately but continue to trail well behind those at advised prices, with 17 points profit since our last update but 76 points lost for our trial to date at BSP.
So as mentioned before this is not a strategy to follow at Betfair SP and bookie accounts are needed if you want to use the service.
A slight step backwards for horse racing tipster The Bet Professor over the last month, with a loss of 16 points made at advised prices since our last update.
That means they are now 242 points up at advised prices for our trial overall.
The Betfair SP results continue to trail well behind those at advised prices, with 19 points lost since our last update and 93 points lost for our trial to date at BSP.
So as mentioned before this is not a strategy to follow at Betfair SP and bookie accounts are needed if you want to use the service.
The Betfair SP results continue to trail well behind those at advised prices, with 13 points profit made since our last update but 74 points lost for our trial to date at BSP.
So as mentioned before this is not a strategy to follow at Betfair SP and bookie accounts are needed if you want to use the service.
Things continue to tick along nicely for horse racing tipster The Bet Professor, with a profit of 17 points made at advised prices since our last update.
That means they are now 217 points up at advised prices for our trial overall.
The Betfair SP results continue to trail well behind those at advised prices, with 2 points profit made since our last update but 87 points lost for our trial to date at BSP.
So as mentioned before this is not a strategy to follow at Betfair SP and bookie accounts are needed if you want to use the service.
The Betfair SP results also had a good month but continue to trail well behind those at advised prices, with 11 points profit made since our last update but 89 points lost for our trial to date at BSP.
So as mentioned before this is not a strategy to follow at Betfair SP and bookie accounts are needed if you want to use the service.
The Betfair SP results also had a good month but continue to trail well behind those at advised prices, with 17 points profit made since our last update but 100 points lost for our trial to date at BSP.
So as mentioned before this is definitely not a strategy to follow at Betfair SP and bookie accounts are needed if you want to use the service.
The Betfair SP results also had a good month but continue to trail well behind those at advised prices, with 14 points profit made since our last update but 117 points lost for our trial to date at BSP.

The Betfair SP results have improved but continue to trail well behind those at advised prices, with 58 points profit made since our last update but 131 points lost for our trial to date at BSP.
So as mentioned before this is definitely not a strategy to follow at Betfair SP and bookie accounts are needed if you want to use the service.

So as mentioned before this is definitely not a strategy to follow at Betfair SP and bookie accounts are needed if you want to use the service.
Not a huge deal of change in recent times for horse racing service The Bet Professor, with a loss of 3 points made at advised prices since our last update.
That means they are now 51 points up at advised prices for our trial overall.
The Betfair SP results continue to trail well behind those at advised prices, with 40 points lost since our last update and 197 points lost for our trial to date at BSP.
So we think it’s fair to say this is definitely not a strategy to follow at Betfair SP and bookie accounts are needed if you want to use the service.
The Betfair SP results continue to trail well behind those at advised prices, with 35 points profit made since our last update but 159 points lost for our trial to date at BSP.
So we think it’s fair to say this is definitely not a strategy to follow at Betfair SP and bookie accounts are needed if you want to use the service.
A bit of a step backwards for horse racing service The Bet Professor in recent times, with a loss of 22 points made at advised prices since our last update.
That means they are now 8 points up at advised prices for our trial overall.
It’s a very different story at Betfair SP however, as they have lost 70 points since our last update and are now 194 points down for our trial to date at BSP.
So we think it’s fair to say this is definitely not a strategy to follow at Betfair SP and bookie accounts are needed if you want to use the service!
Not much change (at advised prices at least) for horse racing service The Bet Professor over the last month, with a loss of 3 points made at advised prices since our last update.
That means they are now 30 points up at advised prices for our trial overall.
It’s a very different story at Betfair SP however, as they have lost 67 points since our last update and are now 124 points down for our trial to date at BSP.
We want to dig in a bit more on what is happening on prices here as the differential between advised prices and BSP is quite considerable (albeit over a very large sample size), so will report back on that during our next update.
It’s a different picture at Betfair SP however, as they are actually 57 points down for our trial to date at BSP.
So it’s not looking like the service is practical to follow at BSP based on what we’ve seen so far.
It’s also worth noting that there are a large number of tips with this service – we’ve already proofed over 600! So you’re looking at around 10 bets per day which is worth bearing in mind if you’re thinking of following the service.
We are starting a new trial today of a horse racing tipster called The Bet Professor.
Based at the Punt Hub stable of tipsters, they are supposedly “hard at work solving the betting equations and know exactly how to bring you a profit.”
Looking at the results achieved to date, they look pretty good at it too!
Having been tipping for just over nine months now, they have delivered an excellent 288 points profit so far according to the results on the Punt Hub website.
That has been achieved with a return on investment of 22% and a strike rate of a little over 17%.
The Betfair SP profit, whilst not quite as impressive, is still decent at 62 points made so far.
One thing to bear in mind with this service if you are thinking of following it is there quite a lot of tips – often 10-15 per day, so it is more time-consuming to follow than some other tipsters.
If they can keep producing the same kind of profit it looks like the extra effort could be worth it however.
We actually started proofing these tips on 21st June so will record results from then. As ever results will be updated here so you can see how they are getting on.
* Just a note that the Punt Hub website is still being redeveloped which is why the info is not all complete on the page.

Away Wins is a football betting service from renowned football tipster Steve Hudson, operating out of the Phil Rushton stable of tipsters.
The service involves backing away teams in major European leagues. It initially focused on backing away teams in doubles, before switching to single bets partway through our trial.
The service also adjusted its staking strategy, starting at 5-point stakes before moving to 2.5 points per bet.
While there were signs of improvement after these changes, the overall performance remained poor.
The final results show a loss of 102 points, equating to a 50% reduction in the starting bank. This is obviously a very disappointing outcome for those following the service.
Performance Analysis
The trial began with a particularly tough period, with 76 points lost in the first two months.
The shift from doubles to singles and the reduction in staking helped to limit losses somewhat, but it was not enough to turn things around.
Even when analyzing results at a more conservative 1-point level stakes, the service was still showing a loss, albeit a smaller one.
A 52% strike rate is not terrible, but the key issue was the odds and selections failing to deliver enough value to overcome the bookmaker’s margin.
The ROI of -11% confirms this, showing that over the long run, following the tips would have resulted in consistent losses.
So unfortunately with such a large loss and poor stats, unsurprisingly it’s a FAILED rating for this one.
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: The selections are sent out via e-mail. There is normally plenty of time to get the bets on and with around 5-6 bets per weekend on average (and sometimes bets for the midweek fixtures aswell) the workload is pretty manageable.
Availability of prices: Tipping in the match odds market in big leagues means there is plenty of liquidity and there was no issue with prices during our trial.
Strike rate: The strike rate for our trial was solid on the face of it at 52% but it obviously wasn’t high enough to generate a profit.
Advised Betting Bank: A 200 point betting bank is recommended for following the service. That seems fairly reasonable to us given the staking, although half the bank was lost during our trial so a larger bank may be advisable here.
Subscription costs: The subscription costs at the time of writing are £15 per month or £67 per year.
OVERALL VERDICT: FAILED
While football tipster Away Wins had some logic behind it – attempting to capitalise on undervalued away teams – the execution ultimately fell short. The losses were too significant with over 100 points dropped during our trial, and even with adjustments, the service did not show enough promise to warrant continued use.
For those looking for a profitable football tipster, there are better options available. You can check out our list of top-performing football tipsters here.
As always, we will continue to review tipster services to find the best and most profitable options for our readers. Stay tuned for more updates!
Worth noting that they started off tipping in doubles but have now switched to just single bets. They also started off at 5 point stakes and are now tipping at 2.5 point stakes.
Since they switched to single bets and 2.5 point stakes, they are around 33 points down for our trial.
That would be around 13 points down at one point level stakes, so not as bad as the headline results but still with some room for improvement for sure.

So a rough start here anyway – a quick turnaround is needed.
We are starting a new trial today of a football service called Away Wins.
This service comes from the Phil Rushton stable of tipsters. The tips are provided by Steve Hudson, who also supplies the tips for the Goal King service which passed a review here at Honest Betting Reviews back in 2021.
As the name suggests, this service focuses on backing the away teams in football matches.
Steve says he feels that home advantage can be overstated in football and there is therefore value to be found in backing away teams in certain circumstances when they are playing well.
The twist with this service however is they are backed in doubles rather than singles.
Steve feels this can increase his edge over the bookies when he identifies value on away teams.
The results published on the Away Wins website look very promising, with 180 points profit made since May of this year.
That would be £1,800 profit at £10 per point or £4,500 profit at £25 per point stakes.
Equally impressive has been the strike rate of 43% for the winning doubles and a huge return on investment (ROI) of 33%.
If those results can be repeated over the course of a live trial and in the long run that would certainly be very impressive and would make this a valuable addition to anyone’s betting portfolio.
The bets come in the major European leagues including the Bundesliga, Premier League, Serie A, Ligue 1, as well as other leagues such as the Swedish Allsvenskan and Belgian Jupiler League.
With bets being on the match odds market – and being placed in doubles – there shouldn’t be too many issues with liquidity or achieving advised prices.
So it all looks encouraging but as ever we will wait to see how this one performs under a live trial before delivering a verdict.
We will update results here as we go along as usual so you can see how they are getting on.
Just to confirm that this service has been discontinued so this will be our final update.
The writing looked to be on the wall for a while as they had been closed to new members on the Betting Gods platform, with only existing members still receiving the tips.
However, with a loss of 29 points made over our two year review period the results were just weren’t up to scratch so we can understand the decision to wrap things up at this stage.
So we will also call it a day here and put this one in the failed/defunct pile.
On to the next review then and hopefully a bit more luck in finding a top football tipster!

Even though we are getting towards the end of the main European season, this tipster normally continues tipping in the Summer leagues from the likes of Scandinavia and America so we should still see plenty of action over the coming months.
We are getting towards the end of the European season now so it would be good to see them finish the season with a flourish and get back towards evens for our trial overall.
Hopefully they can get things back on track soon and start to make back some of the losses made in our trial as it has been rather disappointing so far.
It’s been a step backwards for football tipster the Euro Football Punter over the last month unfortunately, with a loss of 23 points made since our last update.
That means they are now 26 points down for our trial overall.
Hopefully with the main European leagues about to kick off again for the new season we will see them get things moving back in the right direction shortly.
There has been steady progress for football tipster the Euro Football Punter over the last month, with a profit of 6 points made since our last update.
That means they are now 3 points down for our trial overall.
Simple 1 point staking is used on every bet, which is something we like to see as it keeps things straightforward to follow and means results aren’t inflated or exaggerated in any way like you see with some services.
Anyway, let’s hope they can keep the positive momentum going and get back into profit for our trial soon.
Even though the big European leagues have now finished for the season, this service will still be providing tips in other divisions such as the Swedish, Irish and Norwegian leagues over the Summer so plenty of action to get stuck into still.
There are generally 2-3 bets per day with this service – sometimes more at weekends – with tips normally posted early in the morning with plenty of time to get the bets on.
Anyway, let’s hope they can get back on track and move back into the green by the time of our next update.

True to the tipster’s name, leagues all across Europe are used, including Spain, France, Italy, Turkey, Greece and England.

This is a new service from the Betting Gods tipster platform and has some strong results since starting up in May 2021.
According to the results on the Betting Gods site, they have made over 130 points profit so far, which is an impressive haul.
That has been achieved with an excellent 67% win rate – meaning a high proportion of winning bets, something we always like to see.
The return on investment is also good at 16%. For football services anything around 10% is considered a strong ROI so to be up at 16% with a high strike rate is notable.
A variety of markets are utilised for the bets including match odds, first half goals and over/under 2.5 goals.
Leagues across Europe are used, including Ireland, Belgium and Scandinavian leagues, so not the biggest leagues but it’s often these lesser leagues where value can be found as there is less focus on them and information is not so readily available.
One of the nice things about the service is that there have been some long winning streaks – quite a few over ten and some even 16+ match winning streaks.
It’s in those instances that the bank can really grow quickly.
Hopefully we’ll see those kind of streaks repeated during our trial but only time will tell. As ever results will be updated here as we go along so you can see how the tips are getting on.

We are starting a new review today of a betting service called Sure Favs.
Well that’s not strictly accurate in fact – it’s actually picking up from a review we did previously.
Sure Favs is an automated betting system from the Exponential Bet (or Expo Bet for short) suite of services and we previously took a look at it as part of a broader review of four of their systems.
Although as a whole the four systems didn’t make a profit over the course of our review, Sure Favs was the one service that did perform well, producing an excellent 167 points profit during our trial.
We have kept an eye on results since our trial ended and it has continued to perform well, as you can see from the results graph below from the main Sure Favs system:-
Sure Favs – Main Exchange & BSP (Straight)
So we thought it would be a good time to give Sure Favs another look and put it through a dedicated trial of its own here at HBR.
In a nutshell Sure Favs is an automated strategy that places bets automatically on your Betfair account using software called Cloud Bet Bot.
We have tested the software out extensively across a number of reviews now and it works very well, placing bets seamlessly on your Betfair account to your specified stakes, all without the need for a VPN or leaving your computer running all day. Impressive stuff.
As the name suggests, Sure Favs is about backing favourites, one horse per race according to given criteria identified by Expo Bet.
There are essentially three strategies that form part of the service:
Sure Favs Main
Sure Favs High
Sure Favs Foundation
It is recommended to use a 100 point bank for each.
For a bit more info about the service, here is Ryan from Expo Bet with a quick run-down:
So it should be an interesting review and one we are looking forward to given the solid long-term results this one has amassed.
As always we will update results here as we go along.
