Cotsworld Racing – Full Review

 

Cotswold Racing is a horse racing tipster covering UK and Irish racing, from the Tipsters Empire stable of tipping experts. 

The tipster himself comes from the Cotsworlds near Cheltenham (hence the name) and grew up with horse racing.

He says he uses “a selection of databases and information sources that are helping me to find even more winners and gain even better results. The key is not to get overwhelmed with it all, find the sources that work for you and be diligent.

“When punting I tend to shy away from the obvious and am always on the look out for value, often recommending a horse that will be a lot shorter than its early price.”

That strategy appears to have set him in good stead, with very substantial profits made coming into our trial and a formidable reputation. 

So how did it go in the live trial? 

Well we followed the tips for a period of nine months, which gave us a decent sample size of over 540 bets. 

It took things quite a while to get going and we were slightly in deficit for a fair part of the trial. 

However, this was one of those instances where patience was rewarded, as the service eventually came good and got the trial into profit. 

In the end they finished 36 points up at advised prices, which was a solid return. 

That was achieved with a return on investment (ROI) of 6% and strike rate of 32% (including placed horses). 

Here you can see how things really came good towards the end of our trial after a bit of a struggle through the middle part:

The service didn’t perform quite so well at Betfair SP however, with a loss of 31 points made at BSP for our trial. 

Overall then it was a solid, if unspectacular, trial.

A profit is still a profit and is not to be sniffed at so we award Cotswold Racing a narrow PASSED rating at the end of our nine month review.

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use: The selections are sent out by e-mail, either in the evening before racing or at around 9am on the morning of racing. Either way there is plenty of time to get the bets on and with around 2 bets per day on average the workload is very manageable. 

Availability of prices: There was a little bit of pressure on prices as this is a popular service and it is able to identify value and the beat the SP quite frequently, so it is advisable to get your bets on as soon as possible after bets are sent out. A wide spread of bookie accounts is also recommended for following the service.  

Strike rate: The strike rate for our trial was good at 32% (including placed horses) so there was a reasonably steady rate of returns throughout the trial. 

Advised Betting Bank: A 150 point bank is recommended for following the service which seems reasonable to us and was more than enough to cope with the ups and downs during our trial.

Subscription costs: The current subscription costs at the time of writing are £45 per month, £120 per quarter, £200 for 6 months or £350 per year.

 

OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED

Cotswold Racing is a horse racing tipster covering UK and Irish racing and produced a solid, if unspectacular, 36 points profit during our nine month trial. 

It was a decent enough profit to warrant a narrow PASSED rating from us and given the results posted prior to our trial, it is a service to keep an eye on for the long term.

The results at Betfair SP continue to lag those at advised prices, with a profit of 18 points made since our last update but 26 points lost for our trial overall at BSP. 

Although the BSP results have struggled a little in our trial so far, as noted in previous updates it is actually the case that since the service began, the BSP results have outperformed those at advised prices, so it may just be a temporary phenomenon that they have lagged so far in our trial.

Cotswold Racing – Results Update

20th April 2023

A slight step backwards for of horse racing tipster Cotswold Racing lately, with a loss of 8 points made to advised prices since our last update.

That means they are now 6 points up for our trial overall at advised prices. 

You can view full results here.

The results at Betfair SP continue to lag those at advised prices, with a loss of 24 points made since our last update and 37 points lost for our trial overall at BSP. 

Partly that is due to an each-way double which was advised across two weekends, with one of the legs being punted down from an advised price of 7.0 to a BSP of 2.95 (please note that the BSP price of the each-way double is estimated based on the BSP win prices).

It is also down to the fact – as mentioned before with other horse racing services – that when tipping each-way bets with extra places at the bookies, quite a few of these will finish fifth and sixth etc and produce returns with the bookmakers but be losing bets on Betfair. 

The third factor is simply horses being backed and their prices at BSP being lower than the advised prices. 

Although the BSP results have struggled a little in our trial so far, as noted in our previous update it is actually the case that since the service began, the BSP results have outperformed those at advised prices, so it may just be a temporary phenomenon that they have lagged a little so far in our trial.

It’s been a good start to our trial of horse racing tipster Cotswold Racing, with a profit of 14 points made so far to advised prices. 

You can view full results here.

The results at Betfair SP are lagging somewhat however, with a loss of 13 points made for our trial so far.

Anyway, we will have to see more results to see how the BSP results hold up over the long term. It is worth noting that since the service began, the BSP results have actually outperformed those at advised prices, so it may just be a temporary phenomenon that they have lagged a little so far in our trial.

Cotswold Racing – New Review

9th January 2023

We are starting a new review today of a horse racing service called Cotswold Racing. 

This is a very prominent tipster from the Tipsters Empire stable who has built up a very respected reputation as one of the best tipsters out there over the last couple of years.

The tipster himself comes from the Cotsworlds near Cheltenham (hence the name) and grew up with horse racing. He says he uses “a selection of databases and information sources that are helping me to find even more winners and gain even better results. The key is not to get overwhelmed with it all, find the sources that work for you and be diligent.

“When punting I tend to shy away from the obvious and am always on the look out for value, often recommending a horse that will be a lot shorter than its early price.”

That approach appears to have served him very well, with a profit of 430 points made since starting up in 2020. 

That has been achieved with a solid strike rate of 31% and a good return on investment of 15%

What is perhaps even more impressive though is the return achieved at Betfair SP, which is even better than the results at advised prices, with 555 points profit made at a return on investment of 19%

That means it could perhaps be the “holy grail” of horse racing – a service that is profitable to follow at BSP over the long term. 

Looking at the profit graph from the last couple of years is something to behold and the kind of smooth upward progress most tipsters can only dream of: 

So it’s with great anticipation that we get this trial of one of the most promising tipsters we’ve come across in some time underway. As ever, results will be updated here as we go along.

In the meantime you can check out Cotswold Racing for yourself here.

King of the Picks – Full Review

 

King of the Picks is a horse racing tipping service for UK and Irish racing. 

The service is run by a chap called called Hugh Doyle. That name may sound familiar to our regular visitors – well Hugh is actually the brother of the man behind the Bet Alchemist, Nicky Doyle.

The Bet Alchemist is a service we’ve previously reviewed here and given a positive rating to and is one of our top recommended horse racing tipsters.  So horse racing tipping seems to run in the family!

Hugh started his King of the Picks service during covid when unfortunately he lost his job. He had been a successful punter for a while on a part-time basis so after losing his job decided to start betting full-time to try and make a proper go of it. 

It might sound like a risky move but Hugh had the results to back it up, which coming into our trial looked very good. 

The bets are a mixture of win and each-way and are mainly focused on the weekends and big festivals.

We ended up running an extensive 20-month trial in the end which gave us a very good sample size of over 1200 bets. 

At the end of this extended trial, Hugh finished with a commendable 100 points profit at advised prices. 

It’s always nice to see a service break through the 100-point barrier over the course of a trial, which is no mean feat – although this one did take a little longer than most trials we run here. 

Still, 100 points profit is a very good mark to hit and it was achieved with a strike rate of 35% (including placed horses) and a return on investment (ROI) of 4%

Things started off very well before tailing off towards the middle, but really picked up again over the second half of the trial to finish strongly in profit:

Encouragingly for those whose bookie accounts have been restricted, the service also made a very healthy 72 points profit at Betfair SP. 

All in all then a solid effort by King of the Picks and we are happy to award the service a PASSED rating. 

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use: The selections are sent out by e-mail, either in the evening before racing or more often at around 10am on the day racing. Either way there is plenty of time to get the bets on and with around 2 bets per day on average the workload is very manageable. 

Availability of prices: We didn’t notice a huge impact on prices so you should be able to get close to the recorded results without too much problem.   

Strike rate: The strike rate for our trial was good at 35% (including placed horses) so there was a reasonably steady rate of returns throughout the trial. 

Advised Betting Bank: A 200 point bank is recommended for following the service which seems reasonable to us and was more than enough to cope with an extended drawdown in the first half of our trial.  

Subscription costs: The current subscription costs at the time of writing are £29 per month, £79 per quarter, £150 for 6 months or £259 per year.

 

OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED

After an extended 20 month trial, horse racing tipster King of the Picks delivered a commendable 100 points profit at advised prices.

The results were solid rather than spectacular, with bank growth of 50% over the course of the trial. 

With a good profit made however and strong results over the second half of our trial in particular, including at Betfair SP, we are happy to award this service a PASSED rating.

King of the Picks – New Review

4th February 2022

When covid hit it affected us all in different ways. It was a tough time for everyone and for Hugh Doyle, sadly it meant he lost his job.

Having been betting on the horses for decades though and achieving good returns, he decided to turn his attention to betting full-time in November 2020.

His results since then have been quite remarkable and Hugh is probably glad he did back himself to bet on the gee-gees full time! He has now launched his tipping service to share his tips with the public and it’s called King of the Picks.

With over 200 points profit made at a 15% ROI according to his website he’s been doing very well.

The name Hugh Doyle may sound familiar – well he is actually the brother of the Bet Alchemist, Nicky Doyle. That’s a service we’ve previously reviewed and given a positive rating to. It has continued to perform well since our review ended. So Hugh comes from good betting stock anyway!

The bets are a mixture of win and each-way and are mainly focused on the weekends and big festivals. So it should be quite straightforward to follow and generally you could better liquidity on those races so prices hold up better.

So all in all looks pretty good and as a special offer Hugh is offering a FREE month’s trial to test the service out.

Anyway, we will kick things off today and hopefully Hugh can continue his form during our review and beyond. All results will be recorded here as we go along as usual.

In the meantime you can check out King of the Picks for yourself here.

 

 

 

 

The Bookies Enemy – Five Year Update

Here at Honest Betting Reviews we like to continue monitoring services after our review has ended to ensure that they continue producing the results seen in our trial. 

So a full five years after our original review of The Bookies Enemy, it is high time for an update to see if they continue to warrant a PASSED rating from us. 

In our original review back in 2018 (please see below) the service made a highly commendable 104 points profit at a return on investment of 41%, a very successful trial. 

However, many services then fade away after a positive trial, failing to maintain their form and to continue to produce a profit. In fact most tipster services are discontinued within a year or two of launching. 

So first off it is noteworthy that The Bookie Enemy (run by a chap called Gary Poole) is still going at all five years after our original trial. There are very few services out there who manage to keep going that long. 

This is one of those rare tipsters that has stuck around for the long term however, with the service going back to 2008 in one form or another. 

Sticking around a long time doesn’t mean a lot in itself though if you aren’t also producing regular profit, but thankfully The Bookies Enemy has done that in spades! 

Since our original review ended in 2018, they have added a further 771 points profit, putting the total since we started proofing the service at 875 points profit

That would be £21,875 profit at £25 per point stakes or £8,750 profit at more modest £10 per point stakes. 

Those are phenomenal results and worthy of high praise indeed over such a long period. 

If we look at the graph here from January 2020 onwards, it has really been pretty much nothing but upward growth:

The long-term strike is 20% and the return on investment 15%, which are impressive metrics to have maintained over the course of six years. 

In terms of the more recent performance, that has also been stellar with 350 points profit made over the last year. 

Just this month for example they are already 33 points up, so the service is going as strong as ever.

It will be no surprise then to learn that we are not only happy to maintain our PASSED rating for The Bookies Enemy but to upgrade its rating from 4.5 to 5 stars.  

OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED

We can’t stress enough how rare it is to find tipsters who stick around for the long term, let alone who actually produce high quality results year after year. 

The Bookies Enemy has proved itself to be one of those tipsters however, with a superb 771 points profit made since our original trial and 875 points profit made since we started proofing the service back in 2017.

That puts it in an elite category of tipsters and well worthy of a full five star rating from us. Top stuff.

The Bookies Enemy – Final Review

The Bookies Enemy – Full Review

 

The Bookies’ Enemy is a horse racing tipster who has been around for a number of years, operating on their own website and on various tipster platforms.

They recently switched to the Betting Gods tipster platform and not long after that we commenced a three month trial of the service.

The Bookies’ Enemy has a strong reputation of having made very good profits for his followers each year and so we were looking forward to seeing how he would get on under the spotlight of a live trial here at Honest Betting Reviews.

So how did things turn out?

Well we are pleased to say that they turned out very well, with over 100 points profit made to advised prices.

That works out at more than a doubling of the bank in just three months, which is excellent going.

And the return on investment for our trial was a superb 41%, one of the best achieved during a trial for some time.

The strike rate was a little on the low side at 19%, as this is a service that relies on picking long-odds winners that represent strong value rather than backing favourites. So a degree of patience is advised when following the service.

As you can see from the graph below, we were in profit for pretty much the whole trial, punctuated by a big move upwards in the middle.

The Bookies Enemy Profit Graph

Whilst overall the results were fantastic, the one point to be aware of is that the Betfair SP results were quite a bit lower than the advised ones, with 32 points profit made in comparison to the 104 points profit made to advised prices.

So although that is still a good profit, to really get the best out of the Bookies’ Enemy you do want to have access to bookie accounts.

All in all however the trial has been a tremendous success and we are happy to award the Bookies’ Enemy a PASSED rating.

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use: Pretty straightforward service to follow with just a couple of bets per day on average sent the evening before racing, usually between 6pm and 8pm UK time.

Availability of prices: With such a popular and long-running service like this, inevitably there is downward pressure on prices and so you want to get your bets on as soon as possible after tips are sent out. As we say, there was a big difference between results at advised prices and Betfair SP. 

Strike rate: The strike rate during the trial was 19%, which is pretty much spot on the long term average. 

Advised Betting Bank: A 100 point bank is advised for following the service, which should be ok given the average staking is 1.2 points per bet, but to be on the safe side you may want to consider using a 150 point bank.  

Subscription costs: The costs to sign up are £1 for the first 10 days then £40 per month, £80 per quarter or £240 per year.

 

OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED

We often say here at Honest Betting Reviews that one of the most important factors when looking at a tipster is their long-term record. The longer they have been able to produce a consistent profit, the better.

Well the Bookies’ Enemy has been producing profit for a number of years and has continued to do so since switching to the Betting Gods platform.

Under the spotlight of a live trial the service also performed admirably, racking up over 100 points profit in just three months, which would be over £1,000 to just £10 stakes. 

With a return on investment of over 40%, this is one of the best trials we have seen for some time and it is a definite PASSED rating from us. 

The only thing to be aware of is that the results at Betfair SP were quite a bit lower than the advised prices, so you really want to have access to bookie accounts to get the most out of the service.

But all in all it has been impressive stuff from the Bookies’ Enemy and this is one we will be adding to our portfolio for the long-term.

The Bookies Enemy – Results Update

27th January 2018

The Bookies Enemy has been living up to his name lately, smashing in lots of big-priced winners.

He has made a very tasty 44 points profit at advised prices since our last update, putting him on 103 points profit for the trial overall.

You can view full results here.

At Betfair SP he is somewhat behind the advised price results, although still doing very well, with 34 points profit made since our last update and 49 points profit overall.

This is looking like another top service for the Betting Gods platform alongside some of their other high quality horse racing tipsters.

The Bookies Enemy – Results Update

5th January 2018

A small retrace for The Bookies Enemy since our last update, with 14 points lost at advised prices.

That means we are now 59 points up for the trial overall at advised prices.

You can view full results here.

Quite a significant gap is opening up between the advised prices and Betfair SP results, as we are now just 15 points up at Betfair SP for the trial overall after losing 24 points since our last update.

So it is questionable whether this is going to be profitable to follow the service at Betfair SP, time will tell on that front. 

Overall though the trial is still going very well so can’t have too many complaints thus far.

At Betfair SP a good profit has also been made, although not quite as much as at advised prices, with 39 points profit made so far in our trial. 

The Bookies Enemy has a big reputation behind him and it’s good to see he is living up to that so far. 

Back soon with more updates.

The Bookies Enemy – New Review

29th November 2017

Form is temporary, class is permanent. 

So the saying goes. It may be a cliche we hear often in the sporting world, but it applies just as much in the tipping world too.

And it certainly applies to the next tipster we will be reviewing here at Honest Betting Reviews.

This tipster has been around for some time and has built a reputation as one of the most respected names in the business.

He has regularly made over 100 points profit per year and is famous for landing betting coups at long odds.

Who are we talking about?

It is none other than The Bookies’ Enemy of course, a horse racing tipster who has recently signed up for the Betting Gods stable.

It is quite a coup for Betting Gods as well, as the Bookie’s Enemy comes with a strong betting record and following behind him. 

He has offered his tips through a number of sources previously, including social media, his own website and another tipster platform. He has been known as “Bookies’ Enemy Number One” formerly, but now it is just the Bookies’s Enemy.

But hopefully now he has found his rightful home at Betting Gods who should provide the kind of stability for him to really prosper.

The Bookies’ Enemy is in fact a chap called Gary Poole and as we say, he has been around for a number of years and has regularly racked up impressive profits in that time.

Since starting proofing to Betting Gods he has made a very impressive 270 points profit, which has worked out at an amazing £550 profit per month to just £10 stakes.

Those results have been achieved at a superb return on investment of 80%.

Retaining a return at that level will be nigh-on impossible in the long run, but regular profits should be very possible and indeed have been Gary’s staple.

His strike rate has averaged around the 22% so far and as we say, his specialism is going for horses at long odds of 25/1, 33/1 and even higher on occasion.

He has also been known to land a big-priced acca or two, so watch out for those if you are a follower of the service.

All in all then this is a serious tipster and one we are looking forward to testing out. 

We started receiving tips on 17th November so we will record results from then onwards. We are pleased to report we are off to a flying start as well. 

As usual, results will be updated here regularly during the trial.

In the meantime you can check out The Bookies’ Enemy here.

The Rolling Aces – Full Review

 

The Rolling Aces is a tennis tipster from the Betting Gods stable of tipsters. 

This service uses an unusual “rolling accumulator” staking system.

In essence this means they roll on the stakes and profit from the previous bet until a sequence of winners is completed.

It is much like an accumulator but doing it manually because the bets are over a few days.

The aim in each sequence of bets is to turn 1pt into either 10pts or 20pts for each attempt. Normally it takes 4 or 5 winning bets in a row to successfully complete a sequence.

If a sequence is completed – or loses – you go back to the beginning and start with a 1 point stake.

In that sense it is good because you aren’t risking more than one point of your bank for each sequence – that is the most you can lose for each sequence. So it’s not like loss-recovery (aka martingale) in which stakes can become ridiculous quite quickly.

In any event, for the purposes of our review we recorded the results at both the advised staking and 1 point level stakes, to aid comparison and to be sure the tips are profitable in themselves and not just because of the staking system.

The bets come in a variety of markets including match odds, handicaps, over/under games and more. The vast majority of bets are on the main ATP and WTA Tours. 

We ran an extended 18 month review which gave us a very good sample size of 409 bets.

At the end of our trial, The Rolling Aces finished with a commendable 93 points profit at their advised rolling staking. 

That was achieved with a high strike rate of 61% and a solid return on investment of 9%

At one-point level staking, the returns were a little more modest, with a profit of 11 points made over the course of our trial.

So really it looks like if you are following this service then the rolling staking is the way to go.

As mentioned above, we don’t see this as a problem as it is not loss-recovery staking or really any more risky than one point level staking. 

The profits were pretty steady during the trial, as you can see here: 

Overall then we are happy to award The Rolling Aces a PASSED rating. 

It finished just under the 100 point profit mark which is good going and was solidly in profit for pretty much our entire trial. 

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use: The selections are sent out by e-mail, at different times of day depending on when the matches are. Either way there is plenty of time to get the bets on and with around 1 bet per day on average the workload is very manageable. 

Availability of prices: We didn’t notice a huge impact on prices so you should be able to get close to the recorded results without too much problem.   

Strike rate: The strike rate for our trial was good at 61% so there was a reasonably steady rate of returns and drawdowns were kept to a minimum.  

Advised Betting Bank: A 150 point bank is recommended for following the service which seems reasonable to us and was never in jeopardy during the course of our 18 month trial.

Subscription costs: The current subscription costs at the time of writing are £0.99 for the first ten days then £37 per month.

 

OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED

It’s been quite a while since we passed a tennis service here at Honest Betting Reviews as good ones are hard to come by. 

So we are pleased to see The Rolling Aces come through an extended 18 month trial with a commendable 93 points profit at advised staking. 

With decent metrics of a 61% strike rate and 9% ROI, it’s a clear PASSED rating from us for this innovative tennis tipster.

The Rolling Aces – New Review

25th January 2022

Today we are starting a new trial of a tennis tipster called The Rolling Aces.

Over the years we have come across very few high-quality tennis betting services. In fact to date we only have one approved tennis service – Tennis Goldmine. 

Yet tennis is one of the most gambled-on sports in the world and with matches pretty much year-round it does offer lots of opportunities to bet on. 

So we are always eager to check out any promising new tennis services and The Rolling Aces looks like it fits the bill. 

It’s only been proofing to the Betting Gods site since August last year but has made a profit every month since then, with total profit of over 110 points made so far.

That has been achieved at a massive return on investment (ROI) of 42% and an excellent strike rate of 66%

The bets tend to come in more niche markets like handicaps, number of games, breaks of serve etc. 

There is a twist with this service though and that comes with the staking. In essence they roll on the stakes and profit from the previous bet. So much like an accumulator but doing it manually because the bets are over a few days so it wouldn’t be possible to place them in an acca as the odds wouldn’t be available. 

It’s a little unusual to be honest and not a staking system we have seen used too often. It’s not inherently risky though because you are starting with one point stakes and only rolling on previous gains, so it’s totally different to loss-recovery staking systems that we are not normally fans of. 

As ever though we will see whether it works in practice under a live trial. We started receiving tips on 20th January so will record results from then and will update progress as we go along here.

In the meantime you can check out The Rolling Aces for yourself here.

Profit Maximiser Full Review

 

Profit Maximiser is a sequel to Mike Cruickshank’s Bonus Bagging, which we evaluated positively at Honest Betting Reviews.

How does Profit Maximiser compare?

We are delighted to report that it surpasses Bonus Bagging in quality. In fact, it can be aptly described as an enhanced version of Bonus Bagging. The potential to earn substantial profits has excited us greatly at HBR Towers!

Profit Maximiser is essentially a system that capitalizes on the free bet offers provided by bookmakers to entice new customers.

Under normal circumstances, one must place a specific bet before receiving a free bet from bookmakers. This means that if you’re unfortunate enough to lose both the initial wager and the free bet, you would incur a loss.

However, Profit Maximiser enables you to set up risk-free (or very low-risk) bets, using some clever techniques. 

In addition to exploiting bookmakers’ free bets, Profit Maximiser expands its scope to include casino, bingo, games, and slots free bet offers.

Profit Maximiser takes advantage of a variety of free bets, including slots and games.

Casino

Profit Maximiser allows members to capitalize on casino offers.

While Bonus Bagging primarily focuses on introductory offers from bookmakers, Profit Maximiser emphasizes ongoing offers, although there are still plenty of introductory offers to capitalize on.

The system provides comprehensive instructions, including training videos and examples, ensuring that you can’t go wrong.

As we mentioned in our review of Bonus Bagging, the strategy of creating risk-free bets undoubtedly leads to profit. By following the provided instructions, you are guaranteed to make money. However, the exact amount you can earn depends on a few things, which we will go into below. 

How much money can you make?

This question is akin to inquiring about the length of a piece of string—it primarily depends on the amount of time and effort you invest.

Numerous individuals within the Profit Maximiser Facebook community assert that they are generating substantial amounts of money through the system. Here are a few excerpts from posts within this community, which consists of over 5,000 members:

Facebook Comment

So over £40k this guy claims to have made. There are others – this lady claims she has made over £12,000:

Facebook Comment 2

And another one here claiming to have made over £50k in two years:

Facebook Comment 3

It’s unlikely that he would actually buy all 5,000 members a pint, as that would cost him approximately £15,000 out of the £50,000 he won!

During our trial period, we didn’t achieve those kinds of earnings, but we still had a very successful outcome.

To simplify matters, let us divide our earnings into two parts: the profits we made from the introductory offers and the profits we made from the ongoing offers.

get a 14 Day Trial for £1

Introductory Offers

So first up are the introductory offers. These are the offers made for opening a new account with a bookie or betting company. Here is how much we made from these offers:

 

Type Deposited Profit  Risk Notes
Bookies’ free bets £1,840 £886 Risk-free  
Casino £400 £263 Not risk free Returns will vary – not guaranteed
Casino (no risk) £100 £100 Risk-free  
Financials £375 £225 Risk-free For new spread bet accounts
Bingo £300 £258 Not risk free Returns will vary – not guaranteed
TOTAL £3015 £1732    

 

The returns from the introductory offers were excellent, although our results could have been slightly better since we already had a couple of bookmaker accounts.

Profit Maximiser offers over 60 bingo offers for you to enjoy.

It’s important to note that not all the offers are risk-free. Certain casino and bingo offers involve some level of risk, meaning your results may not be the same as mine. However, it is possible to make even more profits depending on your luck and the number of offers you participate in. Among the 60+ bingo offers available, we personally chose to play the top 20 or so.

As always, Mike provides clear markings and instructions indicating which offers are risk-free and which are not. This ensures that you have a clear understanding of the potential risks involved before proceeding.

 

Ongoing Offers

Once you have completed all the introductory offers, which can be time-consuming, there are ongoing offers to explore.

Mike regularly sends out emails highlighting the most lucrative offers. Additionally, there are two valuable options available to access other offers:

  1. The Profit Maximiser website features a calendar that lists all the offers for the day. It provides brief descriptions of the key points of each offer and includes links for more information.
  2. The Profit Maximiser Facebook group, consisting of 5,794 members, serves as an excellent online community where people share the best offers of the day.

Determining the exact amount of money one can make from these ongoing offers is challenging.

As seen in the aforementioned Facebook posts, some individuals claim to have turned it into a full-time profession, earning over £20,000 per year. While we cannot verify these stories, it is plausible considering the abundance of available offers.

In our own experience, we primarily focused on the best risk-free offers sent via email by Mike. These offers were usually quick to complete and yielded satisfactory profits.

Additionally, we participated in as many other offers as time allowed, prioritizing those that provided the best value with minimal risk. Here are the results we achieved during the month of October:

 

 Type Deposited Profit Risk
Mike’s e-mails £860 £536 Risk-free
Other offers £345 £201 Mixture of risk-free and non risk-free
TOTAL £1205 £737

 

A very good return of £737 for very little risk. Again, you could have just done the risk-free offers that Mike e-mails out and made over £500 no problem.

So overall from the introductory offers and ongoing offers, We made £2,469 profit during the trial. And the majority of it with no risk. Pretty awesome!

Achieving £2,469 in virtually risk-free profits was indeed commendable. However, there was an opportunity for much greater success.

On September 8th, Sky Bet presented an offer called Red 10 that appeared too good to be true, except that this time it was genuine.

The offer revolved around their casino games, specifically the roulette game. Participants were required to place a minimum bet of £5 on the roulette game, and if the color red appeared 10 times, they would win £10.

Observant members of the Profit Maximiser Facebook Group noticed this exceptionally favorable offer and shared it on the forum for others to benefit from.

And benefit they did. People were able to continuously play and accumulate the bonus every time enough reds appeared. It was an opportunity that came close to being entirely risk-free.

The most remarkable aspect was that there was no limit to the number of times one could win the bonus. Consequently, individuals played throughout the day and night, with some winning approximately £6,000. Here are a few of the posts illustrating these achievements:

Sky Bet eventually removed the offer on September 9th, once they realized the extent of the situation. By that point, it is estimated that around £1 million had been claimed through the offer.

Whoever was responsible for creating the offer at Sky Bet seemed to either be exceptionally generous or remarkably careless. Nonetheless, savvy individuals took advantage of the opportunity and profited greatly.

Regrettably, we missed out on the offer entirely since we were not astute enough to check the Facebook forum that day. However, this incident underscores the value of the forum and the incredible offers that emerge there.

Sky Bet reportedly lost over £1 million to punters on a special offer on roulette

And apparently it isn’t the first time something like that has happened on the Facebook group either – so chances are it will happen again…and this time we will make sure we don’t miss out!

 

What to Watch Out For

While Profit Maximiser is an exceptional product, there are a few aspects to be mindful of when using it. Here are some key considerations:

  1. Time: Understanding the intricacies of the offers and how to optimize them requires a significant time investment. It is crucial to watch Mike’s training videos thoroughly and ensure a comprehensive understanding of the system.
  2. Record-keeping: Keeping track of the accounts you open, their details, and the offers you have already completed is vital. With numerous offers to navigate, it’s easy to forget important details, so maintaining a record is essential.
  3. Varying quality of offers: Not all offers are equally advantageous. Some may have high wagering requirements or complexity that makes them less appealing. Mike provides guidance on which offers to prioritize and warns about offers that may be more suitable for experienced players.
  4. Play strategically: Engaging solely in the offers without engaging in regular betting activities may lead to bookmakers limiting your accounts. It is advisable to incorporate “mug bets” (for more information, refer to the forum or consult Mike) to maintain account longevity.
  5. Time and patience: To achieve results similar to those who make a living from Profit Maximiser, time and patience are crucial. Initially, you need time to learn the system, and subsequently, you require sufficient time to participate in all the available offers.
  6. Location limitations: Individuals residing outside the UK and Ireland may have restricted access to some offers. For further information, it is recommended to contact Mike via the Profit Maximiser homepage.

It is important to be aware of these factors to maximize the effectiveness of Profit Maximiser and tailor the experience to individual circumstances.

OVERALL VERDICT – PASSED  

Throughout the years, we have encountered numerous betting systems and strategies, many of which make extravagant claims of wealth and the ability to quit one’s job. However, none of them have ever lived up to those promises—until we discovered Profit Maximiser.

Profit Maximiser is a game-changer as it delivers on its promise of consistent, risk-free profits, amounting to hundreds of pounds per month or even more.

When you really think about it, this achievement is quite remarkable. Even the most skilled tipsters can experience losing streaks or suddenly lose their touch, resulting in losses. However, with Profit Maximiser, you can eliminate the frustrations and concerns of traditional gambling and guarantee yourself a stream of free money.

The amount you can make ultimately depends on your efforts. We believe that you should be able to earn at least £1,000 from the introductory offers alone, followed by an additional £500 per month from the offers Mike sends via email.

A fellow Profit Maximiser member expressed our sentiments perfectly in this Facebook post:

Facebook Comment 5

With some effort, it is quite achievable to make £500 per month from Profit Maximiser. However, if you aspire to go beyond that and increase your earnings, the opportunity is definitely present. It will require time, dedication, and perseverance, but it is certainly possible. We recommend immersing yourself in the Profit Maximiser Facebook forum, learning from the training videos, and absorbing as much knowledge as you can if you wish to pursue this path.

Overall, we can confidently say that Profit Maximiser is the best betting product we have encountered thus far. We will continue to take advantage of the ongoing offers and aim to generate a steady income of £500 or more per month. Moreover, we may even delve deeper into the system to truly “maximise” our profits, if you’ll excuse the pun. 🙂

We wholeheartedly recommend Profit Maximiser, and considering the potential returns it can bring, the £97 investment may very well be the best money you ever spend.

Great news! You can now get a 14 day trial of Profit Maximiser for just £1 here.

Profit Maximiser – New Review

11th August 2015

Today we are commencing a Profit Maximiser review, a system that focuses on taking advantage of bonuses from the multitude of online betting sites.

This is a follow-up to Mike Cruickshank’s Bonus Bagging, which we are also reviewing at the moment.

Mike is widely known as an expert in exploiting bookies for their bonuses and is perhaps the doyen of this particular niche.

Profit Maximiser is a more advanced version of Bonus Bagging and covers everything from traditional bookmakers to casinos, bingo, spread betting and more.

The sales page promises “100% zero risk, tax free profits, any time, day or night.”

Sounds pretty good doesn’t it?

Well we will see if it can deliver that during our trial.

There are also various posts on the sales page of people claiming to have made £20k plus from Profit Maximiser, which seems pretty amazing considering it is meant to be risk-free.

Have we found something potentially life changing here or will it turn out to be another false dawn?

Only time will tell…

In the meantime you can check out Profit Maximiser here.

The Form Guy – Full Review

 

The Form Guy is a relatively new horse racing service that comes from a chap called Steve who has been both a bookmaker and a punter.

He has been around horse racing since a young age and been studying form ever since, putting in many hours work per week.

He says systems help with the initial shortlisting but it’s form study that whittles down a long list of selections to the very best bets with the highest chance of winning.

We ran an extended 12 month trial of the service, which gave us a good sample size of 778 bets. 

The tips come with detailed write-ups and you can see that Steve really studies the form closely when making his picks. It’s also reassuring to know a tipster isn’t just randomly sticking a pin in a piece of paper to come up with their selections! 

Clearly all that work is worthwhile because at the end of our review, the Form Guy finished with an excellent profit of 132 points at advised prices. 

That was achieved with a solid strike rate of 29% (including placed horses) and a commendable return on investment (ROI) of 15%. 

As you can see from the graph below, it was very steady upward progress throughout the trial:

One of the most positive aspects of the service was that it also made strong gains at Betfair SP, with a profit of 82 points made at BSP. 

Overall then there really isn’t anything you could fault the service on and an awful lot to like. 

After a very successful trial we are pleased to award The Form Guy a PASSED rating and it is a service we will follow with interest. 

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use: The selections are sent out by e-mail, normally the evening before racing but occasionally in the morning (UK time). Either way there is plenty of time to get the bets on and with around 2 bets per day on average the workload is very manageable. 

Availability of prices: We didn’t notice a huge impact on prices, although it is advisable to get the bets on in the evening rather than waiting until the next day. The results at Betfair SP were very good too meaning it’s a viable service for those whose bookie accounts have been restricted.  

Strike rate: The strike rate for our trial was good for a horse racing service at 29% so there was a reasonably steady rate of returns and drawdowns were kept to a minimum.  

Advised Betting Bank: We didn’t see a recommended betting bank for following the service but would have thought a 100 point bank would be sufficient here. 

Subscription costs: The current subscription costs at the time of writing are reasonable given the excellent results achieved, at £7.99 for the first month then £24.98 per month or £179 per year. 

 

OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED

The Form Guy is a horse racing tipster that we ran an extended 12 month review of. At the end of our trial we are pleased to report it made 132 points profit at advised prices, at an ROI of 15%

The other good news is that it was also profitable at Betfair SP, with 82 points profit made at BSP. So it’s a viable option for those with restricted bookie accounts. 

All in all a very impressive trial and well worthy of a PASSED rating from us.

It’s been a quiet month for horse racing tipster The Form Guy, with a profit of 3 points made at advised prices since our last update.

The Betfair SP results have fallen quite a bit behind the advised prices, with a loss of 22 points made since our last update and just 3 points profit made for our trial overall.

This difference seems to be a combination of getting value early prices with the bookies (which then reduce in price on Betfair by the time of the race) and the extra places with the bookies. 

So at the moment it is looking like you need access to bookie accounts to get the best out of this service.

The Form Guy – New Review

25th February 2022

We are starting a new trial today of a service called The Form Guy.

This is a relatively new service but comes from a chap called Steve who has been both a bookmaker and a punter.

He has been around horse racing since a young age and been studying form ever since, putting in many hours per week.

As it says on the Form Guy website, systems help with the initial shortlisting but it’s form study that whittles down a long list of selections to the very best bets with the highest chance of winning.

Darren Power, who runs the On Course Profits Magazine said:

“We were very impressed with Steve’s performance throughout our tipping competition where he won two of the three monthly prizes and the overall grand prize”

Although this is a relatively new service, results do look promising with 41 points profit made since October last year.

The strike rate has been around the 30% mark and the ROI has been 31% at Best Odds Guaranteed (BOG) and 28% at BSP.

All the selections come with detailed write-ups so you can see that Steve really knows his stuff.

We starting receiving tips on 5th February so will record results from then. Updates will be provided here as we go along as usual.

In the meantime you can check out The Form Guy here.

Bets for Today VIP Tips – Full Review

 

Bets for Today VIP Tips is a combined football and horse racing service providing a range of different bets from singles to doubles, accas, lucky 15s, odds boosts and more. 

You can get different sets of tips depending on which level of membership you go for.

The most basic are the free tips, which include the horse racing daily each-way bet and the football daily double, right up to the Platinum VIP membership which comes in at just £16.99 per month (at the time of writing) and includes all the tips.

We ran an extended 18 month trial of the service – incorporating all of the tips in the VIP service – which gave us a very thorough and extensive look at their performance. 

In total we proofed over 2,000 tips – one of the largest sample sizes of a trial we have done here at Honest Betting Reviews. 

Whilst we have summarised all the results collectively in the table at the top of this page to give the total profit figure of £1593 profit to £20 stakes (or 80 points profit), it is probably more meaningful to take a look at each of the systems separately. Certainly the ROI figure of 4% across all the systems does not reflect that some had considerably better than this.  

Here are the results then for each strategy over the course of our trial:- 

  • Footy Doubles: +£223
  • Footy Trebles: +£107
  • Footy Accas: +£3
  • Racing Each Way Earner: +£64
  • Racing Nap: +£287
  • Racing Double: +£474
  • Racing Lucky 15: +£18
  • Odds Boosts: +£417

What’s really impressive is that they made a profit across each one of the strategies, which is no mean feat. 

However, some made significantly more profit than others so really it looks like the ones to focus on are the Footy Doubles, Racing Naps, Racing Doubles and Odds Boosts. 

In some ways we are not surprised that some of the systems involving larger multiples – trebles, accas, lucky 15s etc did not do quite as well.

We have often written on this site about how tough it is to get value on multiple bets (accas) – hence why the bookies love them and entice customers to place such bets with all kinds of special offers and bonuses. On a double you can probably just about secure value but much beyond that it becomes tough. 

In any event, the performance of the better systems was strong enough over the course of 18 months to suggest they are worth following. 

And with very reasonable subscription costs compared to many other services we have reviewed here at HBR, all in all Bets for Today VIP Tips has proven itself well worthy of a PASSED rating from us.  

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use: The selections are sent out by e-mail, usually late in the morning (UK time), with a reasonable amount of time to get the bets on before racing starts (and plenty of time for football). If you are following all the systems there are quite a lot of bets to place but you can narrow this down by just focusing on certain systems.  

Availability of prices: There appeared to be a slight impact on some of the prices of the horse racing tips after they were posted, although the effect was not uniform so it could have just been general weight of money. We didn’t notice any impact on prices on the football tips.  

Strike rate: The strike rate for our trial was solid at 35% across the systems and there weren’t any noticeable drawdowns during the review. 

Advised Betting Bank: We couldn’t see any betting bank is recommended for following the systems, but would have thought a 100 point bank for each one would be sufficient and this proved to be the case for our trial. 

Subscription costs: The current subscription costs at the time of writing are very reasonable given the results achieved over the last 18 months, starting at free for the daily each-way horse racing tip and daily football double up to £16.99 per month for the VIP Platinum Tips which includes all the systems. 

 

OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED

Bets for Today VIP Tips is a combined football and horse racing service providing a range of different bets from singles to various multiples. 

We ran an extended 18 month trial of the service and in that time it delivered an impressive £1593 profit to £20 stakes (or 80 points profit). All of the systems finished in profit, although some performed considerably better than others so it is probably a good idea to focus on the best performing ones. 

Overall though with very reasonable subscription costs and strong results we are happy to award this service a PASSED rating.

As mentioned previously there are a lot of bets to put on if you follow every system so you may wish to pick and choose – and there are various price tiers depending on how many services you wish to follow.

Previously the horse racing tips had been doing quite a bit better than the football ones but those positions somewhat flipped this month, thanks to a series of bets that all came in on the same day, including a double and treble involving Gronigen beating PSV at odds of 10/1. 

So that put the footy doubles and trebles well into profit, whilst some of the racing bets didn’t have quite such a good month. 

In any event, the bets as a whole are well up – including every bet type now – which is the main thing.

Bets for Today VIP Tips – Results Update

9th August 2022

It’s been a tough month for horse racing and football service Bets for Today VIP Tips, with a loss of £222 made to £20 stakes since our last update.

That means they are now £7 down for our trial overall at advised prices.

That is made up of the following results across their various systems:-

  • Footy Doubles: -£24 loss
  • Footy Trebles: -£323 loss
  • Footy Accas: -£29 loss
  • Racing Each Way Earner: +£206 profit
  • Racing Nap: -£55 loss
  • Racing Double: +£136 profit
  • Racing Lucky 15: +£74 profit
  • Odds Boosts: +£8 profit

You can view full results here.

Something of a split has emerged between the football and horse racing results, with the former now all down (apart from the odds boosts) whilst the latter are well in profit overall.

In some ways that doesn’t surprise us as it is notoriously difficult to make a profit from betting on football, particularly when betting in multiples.

As mentioned previously there are a lot of bets to put on if you follow every system so you may wish to pick and choose – and there are various price tiers depending on how many services you wish to follow.

Bets for Today VIP Tips – New Review

8th October 2021

We are starting a new trial of a combined football and horse racing service called VIP Tips from the Bets for Today tipster platform.

They’ve been giving out free racing and football tips since September 2016, and according to the results published on the Bets for Today website, they have performed ridiculously well!

In May, they coupled them with other great value betting opportunities and created different levels of tips:
– VIP Free
– VIP Silver
– VIP Gold
– VIP Platinum

Visitors/members can still get free racing and football tips, and they can get even more now too for an excellent introductory price.

The results as we say are top notch, with the breakdown as follows (all based on £20 stakes):-

Football Tips
Profit/Loss
Double +£3,748
Treble +£4,267
Accas +£3,065
Racing Tips
Each Way Earner +£371
Nap of the day +£2,301
Double -£64
Lucky 15 +£76
Price Boosts
Value boosts +£108

 

You can get different groups of tips depending on which level of membership you go for.

The most basic are the free tips, which include the horse racing daily each-way bet and the football daily double, right up to the Platinum VIP membership which comes in at just £19.99 per quarter and includes everything.

If they can repeat the previous results in our trial then this would be an extremely cheap option for top quality betting tips.

As ever we will have to see how they get on under live trial conditions but it does look very promising anyway.

You can check out Bets for Today VIP Tips for yourself here.

Rob Brown Betting – Full Review

 

Combat sports like MMA and boxing are becoming increasingly popular to bet on these days and there have been more tipsters popping up in these genres recently aswell.

Rob Brown Betting is one such service following this trend and is a service we were pleased to be able to review. 

Rob says he takes a long-term approach to his betting and treats it as an analytical, process-driven investment.

The betting is very selective, with an average of just one bet per week. 

That meant over the course of a twelve month trial there were only 40 bets to proof. 

Taking such a selective approach is fine as long as you can make it work and thankfully Mr Brown was very much able to do so. 

At the end of our trial he finished with a profit of 28 points, which was achieved with a very high strike rate of 79% and an excellent return on investment of 36%

The profit was very steady throughout the trial, as you can see below:-

With such a low bet volume however, the bank growth was steady rather than spectacular at 28%.

Overall though with those impressive results and being such an easy service to follow, we are happy to award Rob Brown Betting a PASSED rating. 

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use: The selections are obtained by logging into the Rob Brown website. With just one bet per week on average it is a very simple and low-workload service to follow. 

Availability of prices: We didn’t notice any discernible impact on prices after tips were posted. 

Strike rate: The strike rate for our trial was very high at 79%, meaning a large proportion of winning bets and no losing streaks to endure. 

Advised Betting Bank: A 100 point betting bank is recommended for following the service which seems reasonable to us. 

Subscription costs: The current subscription costs at the time of writing are quite high given the results achieved over the last 18 months, at $79.99 per month, $199.99 per quarter or $599.99 per year. Given the subscription costs and low bet volume, this is really a service for high-rollers rather than those with a small bankroll. 

 

OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED

Rob Brown Betting is an MMA Tipster that we followed for one year. It is a very low volume service with just one bet per week on average. 

The service performed very well in our trial, making a profit of 28 points. That was achieved with a high strike rate of 79% and an impressive ROI of 36%. With stellar numbers like those we are happy to award the service a PASSED rating, although would warn that with high subscription costs (plus the low bet volume) it is probably a service for the high rollers only.

Rob Brown Betting – New Review

2nd March 2022

Combat sports like MMA and boxing are becoming increasingly popular to bet on these days and there have been more tipsters popping up in these genres recently too.

We have previously given passed ratings to services like Premium Boxing Tips and Lucrative MMA Betting tips after trials here at Honest Betting Reviews.

The latest service we are looking at today looks promising too and it is called Rob Brown Betting.

Rob says he takes a long-term approach to his betting and treats it as an analytical, process-driven investment.

His tips have been proofed to the bettin.gs site since 2016 and in that time he has made an impressive 237 units profit at a return on investment (ROI) of 12%.

That has been achieved with a very good strike rate of 61%, meaning a high proportion of winners.

Every year since he started has been a profitable one and the results graph shows a nice upward trend.

So this has all the attributes we like to see from a tipping service – strong, consistent long-term results with good metrics in terms of ROI and strike rate.

As ever though we will have to wait to see how it performs under a live trial before we draw any conclusions.

Results will be updated here as we go along so you can see how Rob is getting on.

In the meantime you can check out Rob Brown Betting for yourself here.

Cheek Pieces – Full Review

 

Cheek Pieces is a horse racing tipster from the reputable Betting Gods stable of tipsters. We conducted a lengthy 14 month trial of the service, which gave us a large sample size of 715 bets.

Tips come in UK racing and are generally one point win, 0.5 pts each-way or 0.5 pt win bets, so very sensible staking. 

After our extended trial, they finished with 48 points profit at advised prices, which represented growth of 32% in the recommended starting bank.  

That was achieved with a solid strike rate of 24% and a return on investment of 7%

Interestingly the results at Betfair SP were actually better than those at advised prices, with a profit of 70 points made at BSP. 

So for those whose bookie accounts have been restricted, this looks like a very viable option. 

Overall the results were solid rather than spectacular over the course of our 14 month trial, but with a good profit made we are happy to award the service a PASSED rating. 

 

Service Breakdown

Ease of use: The selections are sent out by e-mail, usually in the early evening UK time (5-6pm) with plenty of time to get the bets on. The tips normally come with detailed write-ups which is good to see. 

Availability of prices: We didn’t notice any discernible impact on prices and in fact as mentioned above, the Betfair SP results were actually better than the advised prices. 

Strike rate: The strike rate for our trial was solid at 24% (including placed horses) so there were  a reasonably steady rate of returns.  

Advised Betting Bank: A 150 point betting bank is recommended for following the service which seems reasonable to us given the low staking used.  

Subscription costs: The current subscription costs at the time of writing are £0.99 for first 10 days then £27+VAT per month. 

 

OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED

Cheek Pieces is a horse racing tipster from the Betting Gods stable and made a solid 48 points profit at advised prices during our 14 month trial.

They actually performed quite a bit better at Betfair SP, with 70 points profit made for our trial. So this service looks like a viable option for those whose bookie accounts have been restricted.

The results overall were solid rather than spectacular, but a good profit was made during our trial so we are happy to award the service a PASSED rating.

You can view full results here.

Interestingly it’s actually been performing better at Betfair SP so far, with a profit of 14 points made since our last update and 36 points profit made for our trial to date at BSP.

It’s quite a selective service with just a few bets per week so makes it easy to follow. Looking promising so far.

Cheek Pieces – Results Update

26th October 2021

It’s been a quiet start to our trial of horse racing tipster Cheek Pieces, with a profit of 3 points made so far at advised prices after one month of our trial. 

You can view full results here.

It’s been performing better at Betfair SP so far interestingly, with a profit of 22 points made to date at BSP.

That was largely thanks to Helluvaboy which won at Kempton at an advised price of 16/1 but a BSP of 34. That does happen sometimes where a larger price selection can be much bigger odds at Betfair SP.

Even leaving that aside, they are still doing better at Betfair SP so we will keep an eye on that to see if it remains to be the case during the rest of our trial.

Cheek Pieces – New Review

24th September 2021

Today we are starting a new trial of a horse racing service called Cheek Pieces.

This is a tipster from the Betting Gods stable and is relatively new on the scene but has an impressive-looking record to date.

We’re not sure if there’s anything in the name of just a reference to horse racing nuance, but hopefully it’s a signed they are tuned into what they’re doing anyway.

They began proofing to Betting Gods at the start of this year and so far are 89 points up. That would equate to £890 profit at £10/point or £2,225 profit at £25/point.

That has come at a return on investment of 20% and a strike rate of 25%, which are healthy figures.

They have had five profitable months in a row which is good to see and seven profitable months from nine in total.

In terms of staking it looks very sensible, with 1 point win or 0.5 e/w stakes being used. There are around 2 bets per day on average, so it looks fairly manageable to follow.

As we say it is early days with this service but it looks promising so hopefully they can keep the run of profitable months going.

As usual we will record results as we go along here so you can see how they are getting on.

In the meantime you can check out Cheek Pieces for yourself here.

 

 

Loophole Trader – Final Review

Loophole Trader is a new system for trading the horses, using a hybrid between matched betting and trading.

The main system requires the use of bookmaker accounts and preferably with features such as best odds guaranteed (BOG) and cash-out available (there is a separate “Betfair-only system” which we will look at further below). 

Over the years we have come across many systems claiming to have found a betting “loophole,” only for 99.9% of them to have turned out to be a load of rubbish – or just a copy of something that is already out there and well known like matched betting.

So we approached Loophole Trader with a little trepidation in the first instance, but after digging in a little were reassured this wasn’t one of those systems.

Essentially the system is provided by way of a written guide, which is quite in-depth and comes with some tutorial videos. Reading through it all and understanding the information will probably take a bit of time and a few goes, as it’s quite complex to grasp what to do in each scenario with a trade.  

At its core though the strategy is quite straightforward and entirely logical. In essence it does work and is quite clever really – we haven’t seen this strategy out there anywhere else. 

It is worth bearing in mind that the recommended stakes are £250 for the initial bookie bet, but the full stake is never at risk and a losing trade in most cases should result in losses of £10-£20 max. 

We had some issues using the strategy as it does require unrestricted bookie accounts as mentioned above, but following it as best we could be made a total of £39 profit from a sample of ten trades. 

That’s pretty good and the results spreadsheet from the trader himself (Al) shows a profit of over £800, which we believe is very achievable after a couple of months of doing this.

The main downsides to the system we can see are that:

  • a) It is does require you to be at your computer for a period before races start (up to half an hour but at least 15 minutes realistically) to monitor the markets live. In the early part of our trial, Al was sending possible races for the day via Telegram and then updating members with alerts when a suitable trade was available, but has now stopped doing so. That’s a real shame in our view as that made it much more viable to follow the system, but Al felt the subscription model wasn’t working and not enough people were following the alerts. That is understandable, but hopefully if there is demand further down the line that option can be looked at again.  
  • b) You would be likely to suffer bookie restrictions after using it for a little while. How long exactly? Well that’s difficult to tell as it normally differs from case to case but after a few months, or even weeks, the bookies might well restrict your account. There are steps you can take to avoid this, as described here. 

There is also, as we have mentioned, a Betfair-only system. This involves trading on a horse if given criteria are met (which have been derived from seeing how markets move based on the main system) and getting out once there has been a move in either direction of around 10%. 

After executing a handful of trades, it would seem like this strategy could have legs but it would require detailed testing over a long period to say for certain. Sadly the time to do this, as indicated above, would be quite considerable. 

In addition Al has added a couple of extra features recently, one is an each-way system which looks quite similar to Each-Way Sniper previously reviewed here and the other is a bot for trading. We haven’t tested either but those are some extra options for members which are good to see. 

 

OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED

Loophole Trader is an innovative system that is hybrid between trading and matched betting. It relies on having certain bookie features available to work. 

Having read through the manual and tested it out we can confirm that the system definitely works and has sound logic behind it. We made a decent profit from a small sample of trades made. 

It is a little time-consuming to use and does require being at your computer in the lead up to races to operate, so won’t be for everyone. As with any successful system, there is also the risk of bookie account closures. 

There is a Betfair-only system as well which looks promising but would require extensive testing to draw a definitive conclusion about. 

Overall though we are impressed with the main system which is innovative and effective and are happy to award it a PASSED rating.

Loophole Trader – Results Update

22nd September 2022

Loophole Trader is a system for trading on the horses, using a hybrid between matched betting and trading. 

It comes in the form of a training course and there is also a Telegram group where the system author, Al, provides a list of the potential races for the day and posts updates if an appropriate odds match is found. 

Although the core concept is pretty simple, there is a lot to work through on the course and a lot to get your head around. 

The key thing is understanding what to do in various scenarios if the odds drift, steam etc and there are differences between bookies and Betfair. If you don’t understand what to do in these scenarios and get it wrong then it can cost you, so it is essential to get this right and practice a bit before getting stuck in for real. 

So it has taken quite a bit of effort to understand all of that and get into a position to trade. 

However, I have taken a few trades – although sadly I am somewhat limited in my bookie accounts and am not able to stake at the recommended amount of £250 nor have all the facilities available (just a note that your full £250 should never be at risk – that is just the amount needed for the initial bookie bet – the actual potential loss should be much smaller at around £10).

Anyway, having taken a few dummy trades I am pleased to report that most have been successful and I am around £25 up so far. 

In terms of the system itself, as mentioned in the review introduction it is a genuine system and is quite clever. It’s not something I’ve seen before which is impressive given how saturated the matched betting market has become. 

You do need BOG bookie accounts for the main system and additional facilities, which we can’t really say here without giving things away, but suffice to say you need bookie accounts without restrictions. 

It’s also fair to say that after doing this for a while, you are likely to lose the facilities needed to make the system work. How long that takes will of course vary in each case, but it could be a few months on average, although some may be able to make it last longer of course.

However, the good news is that Al has also developed a Betfair-only system. This is really good news and gives a greatly extended shelf-life to the system. 

I am keen to test this Betfair-only system but want to first get the main bookie version tested properly with some results on the board. 

Once that is done, I will move on to looking at the Betfair-only system. 

So far though it’s a definite thumbs-up for the Loophole Trader and it is looking like a rare breakthrough in the trading/matched betting sector.

Loophole Trader – New Review

18th August 2022

We are starting a new trial today of a system called Loophole Trader. 

This is a system for trading on the horses, using a hybrid between matched betting and trading. 

It’s an interesting concept and one we haven’t come across before, so does look like it is worth testing out. 

Now over the years we have heard the idea of a betting “loophole” many times, and the vast majority of the time it turns out to be a con or scam. 

However, in this case having taken a look at the basis of the system it does look genuine to us, although of course the real test will be whether it makes money in practice.

The system author is a guy called Al Gibbs, who has spent a lot of time developing the strategy and has written a full course manual (with accompanying videos) to explain how it works. He claims he made over £3,000 profit from trading the system last summer.  

In addition to the course manual there is also a Telegram group where Al sends the trades out each day as they can be quite time-consuming to find yourself apparently. 

One thing to be aware of is that you will preferably need BOG (best odds guaranteed) bookmakers to make the system work. 

Although the core concept is quite straightforward, there is quite a lot to get your head around in terms of knowing what to do in various situations so will need to spend some time getting to grips with it. 

As usual though will report back soon on how we are getting on. 

In the meantime you can check out Loophole Trader for yourself here.
