Results to date look impressive, with 140 points profit in 2014 and 25 points profit so far this season.
Some of their top winners include Brian Harman at 100/1 at the John Deere Classic, JB Holmes at 66/1 at the Wells Fargo, Hunter Mahan at 50/1 at the Barclays and Ross Fisher at 28/1 in the Tshwane Open.
With some top events coming up in the next few weeks including the BMW PGA at Wentworth, the Memorial at Muirfield Village and of course the US Open at Chambers Bay, it should be an exciting time to be involved with a golf service.
Maybe the route to success will just be backing Rory McIlroy in every tournament 🙂
But I’m sure there will be some big priced value available as well.
Looks like a decent service to get involved with so let’s see how they get on during our 3 month trial.

With the cricket season getting underway and the Ashes just around the corner, it seems like a good time to do a trial of a cricket tipster.
So we have turned to the Cricket Advisor, who is part of the Betfan stable. This cricket tipster has been around for five years, which is a good sign for a tipster. So many seem to come and go on a whim, so it is reassuring when one sticks around – along as they are successful of course!
The Cricket Advisor claims long term returns of 16% ROI which is good stuff.
He mainly tips in the top batsman market but also delves into other niche cricket betting markets.
Here’s hoping to a profitable summer with the leather and willow. It may be the only joy we get out of the cricket this summer if England’s recent form is anything to go by!
Anyway, we will do our normal three month review and see how this one gets on.
N.B. – Over Under Pro closed its doors on 2nd June 2015 and is no longer available.
Over Under Pro Final Review
We have come to the end of our three month trial of Over Under Pro from the Betting Gods stable and unfortunately it has not quite delivered the results we were hoping for.
The over/under 2.5 goals market is a popular one on football, often attracting large volumes of bets and second only to the match odds as the most popular of markets on Betfair.
Basically the market is based on how many goals there will be in a match – so if there are 3 goals or more it is over 2.5 goals and 2 goals or less then it is under 2.5 goals. Very simple and only two possible outcomes.
Statistically in football there are also approximately 2.5 goals per match, so it gives a nice even point to bet around.
It is a difficult market to get right in the long term though and I don’t know of many services or tipsters that have shown a long term profit on it.
Developing an edge that is not covered by the market has proved difficult for punters and professional gamblers alike.
This has been the case here and an 11 point loss over the trial backs up how hard it is to make a profit on this market.
Whilst some games seem obvious contenders to be over 2.5 goals – like for example Dutch matches which are notoriously high scoring – this seems to be priced into the market. There don’t appear to be many “hidden” opportunities where there is good value to be obtained.
Sadly this tipster wasn’t quite able to enough value in its selections to turn a profit anyway.
Ease of use: Very good – bets are sent by e-mail in the morning and can be placed at Betfair or with the bookies.
Availability of prices: Good. As mentioned above, there is very good liquidity in these markets so there was little problem in obtaining the advised prices.
Strike rate: A good strike rate during our trial at 59%, but with average odds of 1.59, unfortunately that was not enough to turn a profit.
Advised Betting Bank: A 50 point betting bank is advised, which is more than ample to cover losing runs with such a high strike rate. Even with the disappointing results of this trial, we still only ended up losing 22% of our bank, so the bank was never in danger.
Subscription costs: Very reasonable at £9.99 per month
OVERALL VERDICT: FAILED
Sadly this one has to go into thefailed categorywith an 11 point loss over the course of the trial. It is a tough market to make a profit from and they weren’t able to find enough value in their selections to make this a success.

The third and final of our trials of Tony Gibson’s betting systems, Dark Horses is a simple betting system selecting just one or two horses per day to back.
The service claimed profits of over 300 points coming into our trial, but unfortunately as with our two other reviews of Tony’s services – the Value Seeker and Tim Russell’s Private Service – it has failed to live up to previous results during our trial.
A profit of two points was made at advised prices, whilst backing at Betfair SP (BSP) resulted in a 9 point loss.
So nothing too bad, but not something to get excited about either I’m afraid.
Ease of use: OK – you have to log in to a forum to find the selections rather than receiving them by e-mail. Tips are available by around 10 am daily (UK time) and bets are simply backed at Best Odds Guaranteed (BOG) bookmakers each morning after selections are given out. There are a maximum of 2 bets per day so shouldn’t take long to place the bets.
Availability of prices: Fairly good – prices were generally available for long enough to enable you to place bets. There was a difference of around 10 points between results at advised prices and BSP, which isn’t too bad.
Strike rate: The strike rate during our review was 19%, which means there will be some drawdowns along the way using this service.
Advised Betting Bank: A 50 point betting bank is advised, which was never in danger of being lost during the trial and seems reasonable.
Subscription costs: The subscription costs are very reasonable at £30 per month, which includes not just the Dark Horses betting tips but a suite of other systems and tips from Tony Gibson’s www.bettingsystem.infowebsite.
OVERALL VERDICT: NEUTRAL
As the service just made a small profit of 2 points during our trial, it doesn’t seem to quite warrant inclusion in our passed systems, and it seems fairer to put it in ourneutral categoryfor now.
I had been hoping for better things from our reviews of Tony Gibson’s systems but that is betting for you – don’t rely on anything!
Perhaps things will pick up for these systems – we will keep an eye on them and report back in due course.

Coming into this review the Value Seeker had notched up one of the most impressive points totals I have come across. Indeed, they asked the question themselves “Is this the greatest proofing period ever?”
With over 1200 points profit in 18 months, it was not a ridiculous claim to make. So how did it get on during our trial?
Well things got off to a rip-roaring start and I was suitably excited when just two days in, the service landed a 65/1 winner in the form of Lough Derg Walk.
However, sadly that profit has been steadily eroded over the subsequent three months and we end up back where we started at break even point.
So no real damage done, but nothing to write home about either.
The provider of the selections Tony Gibson has clearly spent a good deal of time coming up the system and this is evidenced in his book of the same name,The Value Seeker,which is an interesting read.
Essentially it is a system for selecting unexposed horses from some of the top trainers, but I can’t really say more than that without giving too much away.
Ease of use: OK – you have to log in to a forum to find the selections rather than having them e-mailed to you. Tips are available by around 10 am daily (UK time) and it is advised to use Betfair SP, which makes things easy. There are on average about 2 bets per day so using Betfair only it shouldn’t take long to place the bets.
Availability of prices: Very good – as above, you are advised to use Betfair SP so no problem in getting the bets on and you know you can match the advertised results.
Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was just 14%, so patience and a good size betting bank are required.
Advised Betting Bank: A 200 point betting bank is advised, which seems more than adequate to deal with the losing runs.
Subscription costs: The subscription costs are very reasonable at £30 per month, which includes not just the Value Seeker selections but a suite of other systems and tips from Tony Gibson’swww.bettingsystem.infowebsite.
OVERALL VERDICT: NEUTRAL
As the service broke even over the course of the trial, the only fair verdict seems to be a placing in ourneutral category.
Given the previous results and the fact that this has a well-researched and carefully thought out system behind it, we will continue to monitor results and see if there is an improvement.
https://www.honestbettingreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/hbr-logo-new-300x145.png00Danhttps://www.honestbettingreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/hbr-logo-new-300x145.pngDan2015-04-25 07:42:002023-08-08 15:35:00The Value Seeker Final Review
I was heading into this trial with high hopes given that it was £18,000 in profit (or 180 points) over the previous 18 months. It also had a high strike rate so I saw this as a service that could grow a bank quite quickly.
However, sadly that has not proved the case this time and it has been a disappointing trial. We have ended up 11 points down at advised prices and over 17 points at Betfair SP (BSP).
Considering the advised bank is 20 points, we have lost over half of it at advised prices and nearly the whole thing at BSP!
The thing that I found intriguing during this trial though was that selections were consistently backed in, sometimes significantly. This suggests that the information Tim gets is genuine and/or he is able to identify selections that will be backed.
So perhaps there are trading opportunities here, for example to back selections when they are given out and lay them later.
That is not what is advised though and I didn’t investigate it during our trial. We can only the judge the service on what is has achieved during our trial and unfortunately it has not lived up to expectations.
Ease of use: OK – you have to log in to a forum to find the selections rather than having them e-mailed to you. Selections are available at 10.15 am daily (UK time) and it is advised to use a Best Odds Guaranteed (BOG) bookmaker. There are on average about 6 bets per week so it shouldn’t take long to place the bets.
Availability of prices: Bad. Prices often disappear quickly so you need to login at 10.15 am sharp (or even a little earlier) and place your bets quickly. You are warned about this before joining the service though so it is a case of “buyer beware!”
Strike rate: The strike rate during the trial was 32% which is ok but below previous standards which are more towards 40% plus.
Advised Betting Bank: This was my major gripe with the service – a 20 point bank was advised, which is clearly not enough given that we lost over half of that at advised prices and nearly all of it at BSP! I would think at least a 40 point bank should be advised.
Subscription costs: The subscription costs are very reasonable at £30 per month, which includes not just Tim’s tips but a suite of other systems and tips from Tony Gibson’s www.bettingsystem.info website.
OVERALL VERDICT: FAILED
Unfortunately this service hasn’t lived up to expectations during our trial and with over half the bank lost it has to go into the failed category
I am still at least a little bit intrigued by the fact that selections are consistently backed in though so will continue to keep an eye on this to see if results improve.
https://www.honestbettingreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/hbr-logo-new-300x145.png00Danhttps://www.honestbettingreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/hbr-logo-new-300x145.pngDan2015-04-24 01:07:302023-08-08 15:36:12Tim Russell Private Service Final Review
Well we have come to the end of our three month trial of All Weather Ultimate and unfortunately it has ended in a 64 point loss.
The danger with systems like this – trainer and jockey combinations at certain courses – is that they can look great based on past statistics. However, unless those statistics are based on a large enough sample size and arise from sound logic as to why such a combination should have an advantage, then they are unlikely to continue to perform well.
My own personal view is that most of the time it is just coincidence – statistical variability will inevitably mean some jockeys and trainers have great records at one course and bad ones at another. Perhaps they have had a couple of 50/1 winners at one course that make their results look great. But is that likely to continue? And if so, why?
These are the sorts of questions you need to ask when considering betting strategies such as this.
Ease of use: Very good – bets are given out early in the morning (UK time) and can be placed either with the bookies or exchanges. There is on average 1 bet per day so very quick to place the bets.
Availability of prices: Good – there wasn’t any problem getting the bets on nor any big difference in results by using Betfair.
Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 18% so patience will be required to deal with losing runs.
Advised Betting Bank: A 200 point betting bank is advised, which seemed adequate, with average stakes of just over 2 points per bet. Even with the disappointing results of the trial, we were still nowhere near losing the bank – being just over 30% down overall.
Subscription costs: The subscription costs are reasonable at (a rather unusual!) £53.96 for first 90 days then £11.96 every 28 days after that.
OVERALL VERDICT: FAILED
This service claimed very good results coming into our trial at over 600 points profit bad sadly has failed to deliver those kinds of results here and with over 60 points loss this one has to go into the failed category unfortunately.

*116 points profit at Betfair SP, 197 points profit at advised prices.
Nap Investor Final Review
Well it’s been a huge turnaround in our trial of Nap Investor since our results update about a month ago. At that stage the service was treading water somewhat, just hovering around break even at advised prices.
Then they started banging in winners left, right and centre and have ended up very nearly doubling the bank at advised prices! And nearly 50% bank growth at Betfair SP.
There have been some very tastily priced winners in the last month, including Deuce Again at 12/1, Moonlightnavigator at 10/1 and Flaming Thistle at 10/1.
A number of other winners have been recorded as well, meaning we finish the trial just shy of 200 points in profit at advised prices and 116 points profit at Betfair SP.
Here are the profit/loss figures at advised prices in graph format:
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: Very good – bets are given out early in the morning (UK time) and it is advised to use a Best Odds Guaranteed (BOG) bookmaker. There are on average about 2 bets per day so it doesn’t take long to place the bets.
Availability of prices: Average. There is quite a big difference in the returns at advised prices and Betfair SP, so you are strongly advised to take bookmaker prices as soon as bets come out. Sometimes this is tricky and selections can be backed in quickly. But a good profit was still made at Betfair SP so not to worry too much if you have to use Betfair.
Strike rate: The strike rate is quite low at 23%, so you have to be prepared to endure some losing runs, but there were enough good priced winners to compensate for that. The longest losing run during the trial was 15 bets.
Advised Betting Bank: A 200 point betting bank is advised, which given that the average bet is 5 points, I do wonder if is a little on the low side. I would think a 250 – 300 point bank would be safer. I used a 250 point bank for the trial.
Subscription costs: The subscription costs aren’t too bad for a service of this quality if you go for the quarterly option at £99 per quarter (+VAT) rather than the £57 per month.
OVERALL VERDICT:PASSED
Overall this has been a very good trial and I have been impressed with the results the Nap Investor has produced. To nearly double the bank in three months at advised prices and nearly 50% growth at BSP is a great performance and this service is a welcome addition to our passed systems list.
You can get Nap Investor here.

This is a service from the reputable Pro Betting Club that boasted an amazing 21 consecutive months of profit coming into the start of our trial.
To £100 stakes they claim a very impressive £65,000 profit over the previous 21 months. Even to just £10 stakes that’s £6,500 profit. And with a strike rate of 57%, it would be an understatement to say I was intrigued by the potential of this service.
So how did they get on during our 3 month trial?
Well I am very pleased to say that the great run continued, notching up a further three consecutive months of profit and 55 points using their advised staking.
Here are the results during the trial in graph format:
As you can see, very steady profit all the way through – almost a perfect graph!
Their advised staking is a form of loss recovery which can get quite aggressive at times (i.e. up to 10 points if you have four losers in a row), so it is also worth considering how you would have done using level staking.
Well, I am pleased to report that 1 point level stakes would still have returned a tidy 17 points profit over the trial period, so if you have used flat £100 stakes that would be over £1,700 profit with a very high strike rate and no real drawdown.
Looking at the results historically shows that backing at 1 point level stakes has worked well over the lifetime of the service as well. I think a 10% compounding approach could work very well for this service.
Ease of use:Potential selections are found by logging in to a secure website before 12.30pm each day – that’s the easy bit.
The slightly tricky bit is that the potential selections only become a bet if the odds are below 3.00 at Betfair SP (BSP).
I have to say in all my years of betting I have never come across a service that says you should bet only if selections are below a certain price rather than above it. But it obviously works, so who am I to question it?!
This means you either have to monitor the prices live as the race approaches and back them if the price is below 3.00, or alternatively use a bot. They recommend the Bet Engine, which I used during the trial and found reasonably straightforward to use. Instructions are provided on the Win Form Pro page of the Pro Betting Club website.
Availability of prices: Excellent. Bets are advised at Betfair SP (BSP) so you know you can match their results.
Strike rate: The strike rate is excellent at 57% overall and was around this level during my trial, at 53%.
Advised Betting Bank:A 100 point bank is advised, which is a good thing because the staking system is a loss recovery – i.e. 2-2-4-6-10. I however prefer level stakes so used 1 point level stakes and used a 20 point bank. I considered that should be sufficient given the longest losing run is 5 bets.
Subscription costs: The subscription costs are £39.50 per month or £89.50 per quarter, which I feel is very reasonable for a service that has produced results as consistently as this one. Certainly there are many out there that a charge a lot more and deliver a lot less!
OVERALL VERDICT:PASSED
Well this service gets a resounding thumbs up – it provides just what I am looking for from a service: fantastic consistency, a high strike rate and prices that are available. Using a compounding strategy you have the potential to really grow a bank with this one.
