Betting Gods Premium Tipsisa service that provides daily tips from a portfolio of tipsters on the Betting Gods network, across a range of different sports.
Tips come from the full suite of Betting Gods tipsters, which when we started our review was 17 expert tipsters and is now 15.
The lineup of tipster evolves over time but at the moment includes the likes of:-
The Bookies Enemy
The Footy God
The Outside Edge
The Saviour
Daily Footy Doubles
Some top services there with a number on the list having passed trials here at Honest Betting Reviews in their own right.
As a member of the service you receive 4-5 tips each day, from a variety of the tipsters depending on who has strong selections for that day.
We followed the tips for 14 months which gave us an excellent sample size of 1645 bets.
At the end of our trial then they finished with a profit of 86 points, which is a pretty decent total.
That was achieved with a strong strike rate of 42%, although the ROI was a little on the low side at 3%.
That is not unusual though to have a low ROI when you have a high strike rate.
It is just a little lower than you would like to see with a 42% strike rate – somewhere in the 5-10% range would be getting towards the top range in tipping terms.
In any event, with 86% bank growth over the course of the trial (on a 100 point bank basis – although see below on this) it’s been a strong trial and with the cost of the tips being just £7.99 per month or £69 for lifetime access (at the time of writing), it represents excellent value.
There are many tipping services charging a lot more that deliver a lot less. This is actually one of the best value tipping services we have seen in a while.
A couple of things to note with the service:
At the moment the tips come in just football and horse racing. This is due to the nature of the tipsters on the platform at the moment and could change if tipsters in other sports join the Betting Gods network.
All the profit made during our trial in effect came from the horse racing tips, which made 89 points profit. So you could choose to focus just on those.
Overall then we’re happy to award Betting Gods Premium Tips a PASSED rating. Well worth adding their portfolio of tipsters…to your portfolio!
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: The selections are sent out e-mail, usually around 8am UK time each day. There is plenty of time to get the bets on and with around 4-5 bets per day on average the workload is reasonable, but manageable.
Availability of prices: We didn’t notice too much price pressure overall over the course of our trial.
Strike rate: The strike rate for our trial was solid at 42% (including placed horses), which kept things ticking over nicely.
Advised Betting Bank: No betting bank is advised for the service but we used a 100 point bank for our trial. The bank was never in jeopardy during our trial, although we did experience a drawdown of around 70 points at one stage so a 150 point bank might be more prudent here.
Subscription costs: The subscription costs at the time of writing are very reasonable at£7.99 per month or £69 for lifetime access
OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED
Betting Gods Premium Tips is a portfolio of tipsters providing daily tips from the betting experts across the platform’s stable.
After a 14 month trial they finished with a profit of 86 points, which is a good total. Whilst the ROI was a little on the low side at 3%, that is not too unusual to see when the strike rate is 42%.
With a low cost of just £7.99 per month, this is a very good value service to have as part of your betting portfolio.
Multi-sports service Betting Gods Premium Tips has continued its good form recently, with a profit of 12 points made to advised prices since our last update.
That means they are now 58 points up at advised prices for our trial overall.
It’s been an excellent time for Betting Gods Premium Tips over the last month, with a profit of 47 points made to advised prices since our last update.
That means they are now 73 points up at advised prices for our trial overall.
Just a reminder that this is a service where you normally receive 4 tips per day from across Betting Gods’ portfolio of expert tipsters.
This covers everything from horse racing and football to basketball, tennis and handball.
The performance of this service so far shows the value of a portfolio approach to betting – following a group of tipsters can often be better than just following one, as it spreads the risk and allows you to benefit from a pool of knowledge and expertise.
Just a reminder that this is a service where you normally receive 4 tips per day from across Betting Gods’ portfolio of expert tipsters.
This covers everything from horse racing and football to basketball, tennis and handball. So something for everyone really and certainly the results so far suggest it’s an approach that is working well.

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 and a place on our best football tipsters list.
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.
All the systems are in profit now which is good to see. It has been a particularly good time lately for the Racing Doubles, Racing Each Way Earners and Odds Boosts, which have all added healthy amounts of profit over the last month. Long may it continue.
Horse racing and football service Bets for Today VIP Tips has suffered a slight retracement lately, with a loss of £172 made to £20 stakes since our last update.
However they are still an impressive £1022 up for our trial overall at advised prices.
That is made up of the following results across their various systems:-
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.
Interestingly all the systems are now in profit, apart from the Odds Boosts. So the tips themselves are doing very well for both horse racing and football, which is good to see.
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.
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.

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.

It’s been quite an up and down trial this one so far, but the standout part of it to date is the Racing Each-Way Earner which is an impressive £453 up, so that seems to be the one to focus on.

And of course you can choose to follow as many or as few of the systems as you wish.
So far though all but one of the systems is ahead for our trial so it’s been a very impressive start to our trial from this service.
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.

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 Bettingis 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.
We have mentioned in previous updates that this is a low volume tipster and that has remained the case, with just four bets since our last update.
That is not a problem though and means it is easy to follow with minimal time involved in placing the bets. Good steady profits is all you can ask for really.
There was just one bet over the last month, which was a 3 unit stake at 1.47 which won. That keeps up the high strike rate with 22 out of 25 bets having won now.
Hopefully a few more bets over the next month – although as long as the profits continue that’s the main thing.
We have mentioned in previous updates that this is a low volume tipster and that has remained the case, with just five bets since our last update.
That is not a problem though and means it is easy to follow with minimal time involved in placing the bets. Good steady profits is all you can ask for really.
As we say it’s been a quiet time for this tipster recently, with just one bet placed since our last update. We mentioned in previous updates that this is a low volume tipster but that is very low volume!
In any event, at least the one bet was a winner and the results continue to be impressive with 13 winners from 14 bets for our trial so far (and one void).
It’s quite a selective service with just 1-2 bets per week on average for our trial so far, which means it is easy to follow and doesn’t involve too much work.
With nine out of the ten bets so far having been winners, we couldn’t ask for much more really.
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.

Edwards Tips is a combined golf and snooker service where you can subscribe to either or both sets of tips.
It is run by Craig Edwards, an ex-pro snooker player turned sports betting tipster. He reached the first round of the 1991 World Snooker Championship and the last 16 of the European Open, so knows his way around the baize.
That seems to have translated into a promising career as a tipster and Craig uses his in-depth knowledge of the game and players to find an edge over the markets. He also has a passion for golf betting and uses his expertise and a qualitative approach to produce his selections.
We had been following the tips in a personal capacity for a while and had been impressed with the results so decided to start a proper review here on the site last year.
That review has lasted a full 12 months, which has given us a very substantial sample of over 1200 bets.
We are pleased to say that at the end of that extensive trial, things have gone very well indeed and Craig finished with a profit of 40 points in the end.
As mentioned numerous times during our trial however, the staking with this service is very low. The average stake during our trial was just 0.15 points. So it might be reasonable to times the stakes by 10 to get them on par with most services we review here.
On that basis the profit so far would actually be a very impressive 400 points.
It is worth breaking that down by sport though, as there was a considerable difference in the results:
Sport
P/L
ROI
Strike Rate
Golf
+41 points
21%
12%
Snooker
-1 point
-1%
30%
As you can see, it is actually the golf that made up all of the profit during our trial.
That has not always been the case historically though and prior to our trial, the snooker tips had made 150 points profit in total since Craig started tipping.
So it may have just been a dip during the last 12 months and the snooker tips may become profitable again, but is probably something just to keep an eye on for the moment.
In terms of the golf tips, it is also instructive to split them up into two separate categories, the outright tips and place tips (e.g. top 20, top 10 etc):
Category
P/L
ROI
Strike Rate
Golf outright
+24 points
18%
9%
Golf place
+17 points
27%
18%
So pretty consistent across the two types of bet with the outright tips having made more profit but the place tips having better metrics. If you have the time (and bank) to follow both then it is worth doing so to maximise your profits and have some diversity.
Overall then we have been very impressed with Edwards Tips during our 12 month trial. The golf tips really excelled and had some top class winners at prices of over 100/1.
Craig is very helpful and always answers questions which is good to see too.
There was the occasional issue with obtaining prices, which we deal with further below, but all in all it was a very successful trial and we are more than happy to award it a PASSED rating.
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: The selections are sent by e-mail and come out sporadically, starting on Monday for that week’s golf events. That can make it a little tricky to follow as there are lots of tips coming out at various times of day rather than having a single e-mail with the tips. However, Craig does it this way to take advantage of early prices.
Availability of prices: In terms of prices, sometimes it can be difficult to obtain the advised prices as quite a lot of the tips are sent out on Mondays when the markets are quite thin and there are only one or two bookies (usually B365) with odds.
However, there are always exchanges to use where you can usually get the win odds if you are okay with slightly worse place terms.
Overall we didn’t see this affecting the results too much, but was just an occasional issue where a price had gone by the time we got to put a bet on. You should be able to get close to the official results with a few bookie accounts and use of the exchanges in any event.
Strike rate: The strike rate varied quite a bit by the type of tip, with the golf outright being fairly low at 9% but the snooker being higher at 30%.
Advised Betting Bank: Craig recommends a 100 point bank for following the service, which for once we would say is actually very conservative compared to many tipsters who use banks that are far too risky.
He reduced his staking during covid to be on the safe side as form became a little unpredictable, but doesn’t seem to have put it back up again since. Therefore putting say 0.1pt e/w on a golf selection from a 100 point bank is a very small stake.
We do think there’s an argument for making the stakes more uniform with other services at standard 1pt e/w etc – and then maybe having something like a 200 point bank. At the same time we appreciate Craig may not want to do so as it could mess up his results given the smaller staking he has used up until now.
Subscription costs: The current subscription costs at the time of writing are very reasonable given the results achieved, at £34.99 per month for both services or £19.99 per month for either the golf or snooker.
OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED
Edwards Tips is a golf and snooker tipping service from a former snooker pro, Craig Edwards. We ran an extended 12 month trial and the tips performed excellently, making 40 points profit.
The staking is very small at just 0.15 on average per selection, so to make it comparable with most services we review, you could times those stakes by 10 and the profit would then be 400 points.
That profit was made entirely by the golf tips during our trial however, as the snooker tips finished marginally down.
Overall though it was a superb trial and we are very happy to award Edwards Tips a PASSED rating.
It’s worth noting that the staking with this service is very low. The average stake so far for example is just 0.15 points. So it might be reasonable to times the stakes by 10 to get them on par with most services we review here.
On that basis the profit so far would actually be a very impressive 350 points.
Recent winners include Bobby Shelton at the BMW Pro-Am at 50/1 and Denny McCarthy for a top 10 place at the US Open at 23/1.
As mentioned last time it’s really the golf that has made all the profit during our trial, although historically the results from the snooker are also very good.
It’s worth noting that the staking with this service is very low. The average stake so far for example is just 0.15 points. So it might be reasonable to times the stakes by 10 to get them on par with most services we review here.
On that basis the profit so far would actually be an impressive 340 points.
There’s been a separation in terms of the golf and snooker results however, with the former delivering virtually all of the profits for our trial – 339 points versus just 1 point. So it looks like the golf tips are the ones to focus on really.
The golf profits include a massive 125/1 winner in the shape of KH Lee at the Byron Nelson a few weeks ago, plus there have been a host of placed finishes at big odds as well. Impressive stuff and long may it continue.
It’s worth noting that the staking with this service is very low. The average stake so far for example is just 0.15 points. So it might be reasonable to times the stakes by 10 to get them on par with most services we review here.
On that basis the profit so far would actually be an impressive 246 points.
Just a note in case you are interested that Craig has recently published a book “Edwards Snooker Form 2022” which is available on Amazon. We have been working our way through it and found it to be an excellent resource for snooker betting, with lots of hints and strategies in there to make use of.
We saw some of them in action at the World Championships for example, where Craig made a commendable 30 points profit over the event (including qualifiers).
It’s worth noting that the staking with this service is very low. The average stake so far for example is just 0.15 points. So it might be reasonable to times the stakes by 10 to get them on par with most services we review here.
On that basis the profit so far would actually be an impressive 240 points.
Just a note in case you are interested that Craig has recently published a book “Edwards Snooker Form 2022” which is available on Amazon. It has been getting good reviews and sounds like a valuable insight from a former pro snooker player turned pro gambler.
It’s worth noting that the staking with this service is very low. The average stake so far for example is just 0.15 points. So it might be reasonable to times the stakes by 10 to get them on par with most services we review here.
On that basis the profit so far would actually be an impressive 300 points.
Things really came good for them last month when they picked out Hudson Swafford at 250/1 for the American Express tournament.
That netted over 150 points profit and underlines what we have said many times about golf betting in terms of having patience and a big betting bank so you can really enjoy these winners when they come in.

On that basis the profit so far would actually be an impressive 90 points.
As mentioned before the volume of bets is very high with this service, particularly if you follow both the golf and snooker tips, so it’s worth bearing that in mind if you’re thinking of following the service.
As mentioned in previous updates, the staking with this service is very low. The average stake so far for example is just 0.15 points. So it might be reasonable to times the stakes by 10 to get them on par with most services we review here.
On that basis the profit so far would actually be an excellent 130 points.
Just to note that the figures for the service for 2021 are as follows:-
Overall: 2187 bets, ROI 18.71%
Golf Outright: 708 bets, 38.44% ROI
Golf Place: 512 bets, -0.64% ROI
Snooker: 922 bets, 15.15% ROI
So it was really the golf place that dragged the ROI down a little, in particular in the first half of the year. However, the overall stats are still very commendable with an ROI of 19% and the golf outright bets had an excellent year with a 38% ROI.
It’s worth noting that the staking with this service is very low. The average stake so far for example is just 0.15 points. So it might be reasonable to times the stakes by 10 to get them on par with most services we review here.

There have been a few placed finishes since our last update but no big winners, although they were very close to a 50/1 winner with Adri Arnaus at the Open de Espana last week who missed a short putt for the win and then lost in a playoff.
That was pretty unlucky to say the least but that is golf betting for you. Very small margins are involved, but the luck tends to balance out in the long run (or so they say!).

That’s thanks to winners like Patrick Cantlay at 30/1, Ross McGowan who was placed at 125/1 (win price 630/1) and Top 20 at 18/1 and a number of good placed and Top 20 finishes.
So the trial couldn’t have got off to a better start really. If you planning on joining the service we would appreciate it if you could mention you heard about Edwards from here.
We are starting a new trial today of a service called Edwards Tips.
This is a combined golf and snooker service where you can subscribe to either or both sets of tips.
It is run by Craig Edwards, an ex-pro snooker player turned sports betting tipster. He reached the first round of the 1991 World Snooker Championship and the last 16 of the European Open, so knows his way around the baize.
That seems to have translated into a promising career as a tipster and Craig uses his in-depth knowledge of the game and players to find an edge over the markets. He also has a passion for golf betting and uses his expertise and a qualitative approach to produce his selections.
The results published on Craig’s website are excellent, with 746 points profit made at a return on investment of over 30%.
That includes some massive winners at prices of up to 250/1.
The breakdown in profit by sport is that the golf tips have contributed 610 points profit whilst the snooker has provided 143 points profit.
We followed the service in a personal capacity last year and can vouch that the results on the website for last year are accurate.
Craig tips in a variety of markets, including top 20 and outright on the golf, and match odds, player centuries, handicaps and other markets on the snooker.
The main snooker season is just about to get underway so it’s a good time to start a review from that point of view.
We will of course update results here as we along.
The sport of MMA (mixed martial arts) is becoming more popular these days, with big fights in the UFC receiving big audiences and some of the stars becoming celebrities.
With this popularity has of course come more betting interest and most bookies now price up markets for the big fights.
And of course, with there being a decent amount of betting, there are now some budding new tipsters emerging in the field.
We ended up following this tipster for 24 months in total, which is one of the longest reviews we have conducted here at HBR.
Partly that was because we were following the tips in a personal capacity before launching the formal review.
In any event, it gave us a very good sample size of over 820 bets for the review.
And over that time the results stood up very well, with 159 points profit being made in total.
As you can see from the graph below, it was very steady progress throughout the trial, with only a slight dip towards the end (but signs of a turnaround 0ver the last few bets):
The strike rate was very healthy at 44% and the return on investment (ROI) solid at 10%.
They also have some YouTube content available, which you can check out here.
Overall then it’s been a very successful trial and we are happy to award the Lucrative MMA Betting Tipster a PASSED rating.
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: The tips are available through logging into the website and are generally posted early in the week (Monday and Tuesday) with some other bets coming later in the week.
Availability of prices: Prices are generally available, although on some of the more niche markets they can be affected so it’s helpful to have a variety of bookie accounts and to act quickly upon tips being posted.
Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 44%, which is very solid and meant a steady stream of winners throughout the trial.
Advised Betting Bank: We couldn’t see a recommended betting bank for the service but used a 150 point bank for the purposes of our trial. Staking is quite variable, ranging from 0.1 points all the way up to 11 points, so that is something to be aware of. The average stake is 1.8 points though so a 150 point bank with the high strike rate seems reasonable to us.
Subscription costs: The subscription costs at the time of writing are $96 per month, $279 per quarter, $499 for six months or $759 per year. Those are a little on the high side, although in the MMA space are not unusual and in fact cheaper than some alternatives.
OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED
We ran an extended 24 month trial of the Lucrative MMA Betting Tipster, and it performed very well, producing 159 points profit in total.
That was achieved with a strong strike rate of 44% and a solid ROI of 10%. We are happy to award the service a PASSED rating therefore and is well worth checking out if you are a fan of MMA – or even if you’re not!

They also have some YouTube content available. Here is a video where they detail one mistake they constantly see in the MMA betting market and how you can take advantage of it:
The world of MMA is fully back in action now after taking a break over xmas/new year so there are lots of bets coming through now. James who runs Lucrative MMA also now posts some free tips and Youtube analysis of his picks both of which are well worth checking out.
Just a reminder that we have been following this service on a private basis since January, so have included the full results since then, which as we say have been very good.
The sport of MMA (mixed martial arts) is becoming more popular these days, with big fights in the UFC receiving big audiences and some of the stars becoming celebrities.
With this popularity has of course come more betting interest and most bookies now price up markets for the big fights.
And of course, with there being a decent amount of betting, there are now some promising tipsters emerging in the field.
This is a service that has been running for just over a year now and has amassed some very impressive results with 265 points profit made to date.
That has been achieved with an excellent return on investment of 27% and a high strike rate of 53%, so over half of the bets so far have been winners.
We have actually been receiving the tips since January so can verify those results. There are detailed write-ups for the tips from which you can see that James, who runs the service, has a great knowledge of MMA.
So we will formally kick off our review today but will include results from when we started receiving the tips. Updates will be posted here as we go along as usual.
Here at Honest Betting Reviews we like to keep an eye on services after we have completed our final review of them and not just forget about them.
This particularly applies to services that have received a positive rating, because it’s important to ensure they are still producing positive results and justifying the original stamp of approval we gave them.
In that spirit we are taking a look at Premium Boxing Tips again, which is a service we reviewed back in 2019 (please see below). They kindly kept on sending us the tips after our original review ended so we have been able to continue proofing their results.
So over two years later, how have they been getting on – and do they still deserve the PASSED rating we awarded them back in 2019?
Results Update
Well we are pleased to report that they have remained profitable, adding another 66 points profit since our original review ended.
That means in total they have made 183 points profit since we started proofing their tips, which is well worthy of a continued PASSED rating.
The long-term ROI stands at a more-than-respectable 14% and the strike rate is very good at 66%.
The subscription costs are very reasonable at just £19 per month or £208 per year so you can’t complain from that point of view.
Although the profit has been steady rather than spectacular over the last couple of years (as shown in the profit graph below), any profit at all is commendable and when you take into account their ROI and strike rate stats the service actually stacks up pretty well against any other in terms of long-term performance.
OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED
Having followed Premium Boxing Tips for going on for two and a half years now, we are happy to maintain our PASSED rating of it, as the service has made a profit of 183 points in total since we started following it with a high strike rate and solid ROI.
Well worth checking if you are into your boxing, or even if you aren’t!
Premium Boxing Tips is only the second boxing tipster we have reviewed here at Honest Betting Reviews. Whilst a lot of money is gambled on the big fights in boxing, it is still quite a niche sport in betting terms when compared to the “big two” of football and horse racing.
However, perhaps that is a good thing because it opens up the potential for angles to exploit and value to be found where others aren’t paying so much attention.
That certainly seems to be the case with Premium Boxing Tips in any event, with an excellent profit of 117 points made during our trial.
That was generated with a return on investment of 40%, which is absolutely top-notch.
The strike rate was also a very healthy 76%, meaning long winning streaks and short losing ones, so really there was nothing not to like about the service!
Here you can see how steady the progress was during the trial:
You can tell from their very detailed write-ups that accompany the tips they really know their stuff, with an exceptionally in-depth knowledge of boxing.
Most of the tips are accumulators of doubles, trebles or four-folds (which they refer to as parlays) and they advise which bookmaker to place the bets with – in most cases it is Bet365. A lot of the fights are not the really big clashes like Joshua v Povetkin etc but lesser-known figures.
Overall it’s a pretty simple service to follow though and with results like these there is no question that this receives a PASSED rating – with bells on!
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: The tips are normally sent out well before the fights are due to start, with some accas spread out over a few weeks. With an average of just 4 bets per week, there isn’t too much effort involved in following the tips either.
Availability of prices: We didn’t have too many problems getting the advised prices, most of the bets are advised with Bet365 but there are other bookies to choose from if you don’t have an account with them.
Strike rate: The strike rate for the trial was 76%, which is excellent and meant healthy bank growth during our trial.
Advised Betting Bank: We didn’t see any bank recommended but used a 250 point bank for the trial, which seemed adequate to us given the strike rate and staking.
Subscription costs: The subscription costs are very reasonable given the results achieved at just £19 per month or £208 per year.
OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED
Boxing is still quite a niche sport in betting terms but that opens up opportunities to find value for those in the know and Premium Boxing Tipsclearly demonstrated during our trial that they are in the know.
With an excellent profit of 117 points at a return on investment of 40% this passes our trial with flying colours.
So if you fancy a bet on the boxing or just want to add a high quality tipster to your portfolio, then Premium Boxing Tips certainly fits the bill.
So far here at Honest Betting Reviews we have only reviewed one boxing tipster in the four years we have run the site.
So it’s nice today to have another tipster to review and that is the aptly-named Premium Boxing Tips.
This is a service that’s been going for over three years and the results published on their website for that time look very good.
In that time they’ve made over 440 points profit at a return on investment of over 15%.
What we really like about the results though is the steady profit graph. This is the kind of smooth progress we love to see from a tipster:
If they could repeat that over the course of our trial (and beyond) they would certainly be a tipster worth adding to the portfolio.
One of their expert tipsters says that:
“I’ve been an avid follower of boxing for many years. The advent of fights broadcast and downloadable over the Internet has allowed me to study the sport in greater depth. I started gambling on boxing seriously around 8 years ago.”
Well that dedication seems to be working well based on the results published on their website but let’s see how they perform under a live trial.
So we will run our normal three month trial of this service and will report back here regularly on how things are going.

Trade On Sports (or TOS for short) is a trading platform and community that uses stats to generate both pre-match and in-play bets.
They cover a number of sports including football, tennis, cricket and US sports, but for the purposes of this review we concentrated on their football trading, whilst also monitoring their US sports bets.
Football Strategies
We ended up running a two-year review, which is one of the longest we have ever run here at Honest Betting Reviews. That gave us a chance to proof a huge number of bets (over 1500 in fact) and to monitor a number of their systems and strategies, which evolved quite a bit over the time we followed the service.
The bedrock of Trade On Sports is their stats database – known as the “Gamestate App.” This looks at inplay odds on Betfair based on goal times and current State (time/score) of the match, looking for value opportunities. In essence the app establishes what the chances of there being more goals in a game are based on past data. It then calculates what the odds should be and if there is value to be had.
Strategies are generated from this, either as alerts in their Telegram groups or for members to find themselves using the App.
The beauty of this is that you can place all your bets/trades on Betfair, so no bookies are needed. This is great news for those who have suffered bookie restrictions.
The main strategy we followed was the HT Overs Bot, which is one of the Telegram alerts and is a strategy looking for games likely to have goals in the second half. For this strategy you bet at HT that there will be one more goal (e.g. it is 1-0 then you back over 1.5 goals) at odds of 1.6, which are normally hit around the 70th minute.
The HT Overs Bot performed very well during our trial, notching up £5,120 profit to £100 stakes – or 51.2 points profit. Ironically though it actually suffered badly after the covid break and TOS no longer recommend following it, until crowds return at least.
In the meantime they have developed a number of new strategies, one of which is taking the opposite approach and backing unders at half-time. This is for two goals ahead, so for example if it is 1-1 at HT you back under 3.5 goals. That made 23 points profit during the six months we followed it, which is good stuff.
The Trade On Sports team have also introduced some new football strategies more recently which we will continue to proof, but so far look promising. The “two goals ahead” strategy in particular looks encouraging with over 45 points profit made so far from around 230 bets at a return on investment (ROI) of 20%.
All in all then if you combine these strategies then the profits really start to add up and we have to say this is one of the best in-play trading services we have come across. As mentioned earlier, members can also generate their own strategies and selections from the Gamestate App. So there is really a huge amount of value there waiting to be tapped into, it just depends how much time you have available to make use of it.
In addition there is now the option to automate the strategies via BF Bot Manager (which is an extra subscription cost on top, plus you will need a VPS unless you want your PC running all day and night) so if you’re really pressed for time you can just set those up and let them run in the background. It’s pretty impressive how far TOS has come since we started this review!
All of the Game State App strategies are available with TOS’s Silver Football membership, whilst the Gold also includes their pre-match trading app which we didn’t fully proof results of but looked pretty useful.
Ratings & Bets Membership
The other aspect of the service we took a look at was their ratings and bets in football and other sports, notably American sports.
These are just straight-up normal bets to be placed before the event rather than in-play bets/trades. They performed very well too, generating the following returns:-
So we think well worth adding those bets to your subscription, either separately or as part of the Platinum membership option.
Tennis Membership
Unfortunately we didn’t get to take a thorough look at the tennis membership or proof the bets/trades, but looking at the official results since they started shows a profit of around 85 points.
Service Breakdown
Ease of use: After you sign up you are able to log in to the TOS members section where you get access to the Gamestate Application and links to the Telegram channels where the alerts are posted. If you turn notifications on you will then get an alert to your phone or desktop when there is an in-play bet to place.
The pre-match bets are sent by e-mail and Telegram as well like normal tips.
Availability of prices: The only football strategy where we noticed any difficulty in getting the advised prices was the unders, which is understandable as on smaller leagues there isn’t great liquidity and lots of people wanting to get on unders will push its price down. So on those alerts we tended to get a tick or two lower on average than the advised price. As the other alerts are for backing overs, the price is moving out with time decay anyway so there was less of an issue.
With the HT Overs Bot you can set it to match at 1.6 or a price-point around that. We found that drip backing overs at 1.6, 1.75, 2.0, 3.0 and 4.5 worked very well as there are lots of games with late goals.
Strike rate: The strike rate for the HT Overs Bot was 67% which is pretty good as the implied chances of 1.6 are 62.5%, meaning they had an edge over the market.
Advised Betting Bank: We used a 40 point bank for the HT Overs Bot but a 50 point bank could be used if you wanted to be on the safe side. Either way though the banks would never have been in danger at any stage of our trial.
Subscription costs: The subscription costs vary depending on which package you wish to go for. The Football Silver package, which includes the in-play football strategies, costs £25 per month where as the Football Gold Package which includes pre-match modules costs £39.95 per month. The ratings and bets are £14.99 per month whilst the complete package containing everything (Platinum) is £44.95 per month.
OVERALL VERDICT: PASSED
Trade On Sports is an innovative betting and trading service covering a range of sports. For the purpose of this review we concentrated on their football strategies, but also monitored their bets for US Sports.
The main football HT Overs Bot made over £5,000 profit to £100 stakes which is impressive, although it is currently on hold for the moment pending the return of fans to football matches. They have a number of other promising strategies though including their Unders Bot which made 23 points profit for our trial.
The US Sports bets have also performed very well, generating in excess of 100 points profit in total.
We therefore have no hesitation in awarding Trade On Sports a PASSED rating. It is one of the best – and very few – services we have found that has demonstrated an ability to make a profit from in-play markets on Betfair and for that alone it is definitely worth adding to your portfolio.
Fortunately the HT Unders Bot (results available in the second tab of our spreadsheet) has been picking up the slack, adding 15 points profit since our last update and sitting 22 points up for our trial overall. So that would be £2,200 profit at £100 stakes.
It is worth noting with the Unders Bot however that it is normally tough to match the advised odds, even if clicking through to the market immediately after the alert is sent and usually you have to take 2-3 ticks lower than the quoted odds. Even taking that into account though it only makes a couple of points difference to the overall results so you would still be well ahead.
We mentioned last time getting the automation set up but unfortunately that has proved a little trickier than expected. Hopefully we will get this set up in time for our next update.
The HT Unders Bot has also struggled a little with 2 points lost since our last update but it is still 7 points up for our trial overall (results are in the second tab of the spreadsheet above).
The good news is that automation for TOS strategies is now available, so we are just in the process of setting that up. It involves an additional subscription to BF Bot Manager (although there is a free trial if you haven’t used it before) and you will need a VPS if you want it to operate 24/7 without having to leave your computer on all the time.
Anyway, we will report back more on how the automation works and how it is going in our next update.
A bit of a step backwards for the HT Unders Bot however which has lost 3 points since our last update but sits 9 points up for our trial overall (results are in the second tab of the spreadsheet above).
We are eagerly awaiting the automation option which should be available soon we understand.
We are also monitoring the new Lay Overs Bot, which involves laying the overs for two goals ahead at HT – e.g. if the score is 1-0 at HT, you lay over 2.5 goals (effectively you are backing the unders).
So far this system is 12 points up since starting up in late May. You can see the results in the second tab of our spreadsheet. The alerts are only for the 1-0 and 1-1 scorelines and ignore early goals.
It is often a challenge to get the advised prices for these alerts though as the odds normally move a few ticks instantly, so we will endeavour to record the prices we actually get rather than the advised prices to give a fair indication of achievable results.
Either way though this new Lay Overs Bot is looking promising and would be great to have another tool in the TOS amoury.
There have been no selections since 11th March with football having stopped obviously. There are reports of some European leagues planning restarts in May/June, which would be great if true but we will wait and see. The Premier League clubs would apparently lose £750m in revenue by not finishing the season so will obviously be doing everything they can to complete the season, presuming they can do so safely of course.
What joy and excitement there will be when football finally does return though, whenever that ends up being!
(Please note signing up to the Silver football membership will give you access to the HT Overs Bot, plus other features).
There are some very exciting developments going on aswell, with the Trade on Sports team looking at automating the Bot selections – and the tennis bets – via BF Bot Manager.
If that works it would be a great addition to the service in terms of both saving time and making sure you don’t miss any alerts, as they can come in at all times of day and night. They are aiming to have a live version available in early March so watch this space.
We mentioned last time about the pre-match trading alerts and those are now coming through. Basically they alert you to where the odds of a team may drift or come in a few ticks before kick-off. We haven’t been able to track these alerts unfortunately as a large number come in, again at all different times.
However, it is worth bearing in mind if you are going to follow them that you need a pretty big bank as trading £100 for each game for example would only give you a few quid profit per trade, so to make it worthwhile (or comparable to profits from the HT Overs Bot at least), you would probably need to stake around £1,000+ per game. And if there are a few alerts coming in at around the same time, then clearly you need a decent amount available in your Betfair account to cover them all.
If you are going to follow the pre-match trades, whatever you do make sure you don’t allow your bet to go in-play! The last thing you would want is to risk losing the whole stake for the sake of £10-£20 profit.
Anyway, good to see lots of new developments happening with Trade On Sports and things are looking very positive for the future.
As you may have seen, Trade On Sports scooped the award for Best (Other) Sports Service 2019 in our recent Members’ Choice Awards and the HT Overs Bot has been the bedrock of their success.
However, there are quite a few other elements to Trade On Sports’ service, including a pre-match trading tool which is about to start sending alerts for matches to trade (like the HT Bot), other football trading alerts, tennis trades and tips for US Sports. We haven’t been able to track the results for all of these as have been concentrating on the HT Overs Bot but we are sure these elements all offer value as well.
As we say the pre-match trading alerts are due to be introduced shortly so hopefully we will be able to include news on those in our next update.
The last couple of months have been very instructive as to the value of adopting a long-term mindset in betting. In October there was a drawdown of £760 at one point which was tough to take, particularly if you had just joined the service. There was a drop-off in memberships at that point as some people obviously could not handle the losing streak and gave up.
However, those who stuck around were richly rewarded as things got back to winning ways in November, with those losses more than recouped and more profits made so far in December.
The service has proved itself conclusively with over a year’s proofed results in our review comprising over 850 trades. Inevitably there will be occasional losing streaks as with any system but if you can adopt a long-term mindset and learn to handle the drawdowns the rewards have been tremendous.
One thing to ask yourself if you are getting really anxious and upset during a drawdown is whether you are staking too much money on each selection. A run of 5-10 losers in the course of a couple of weeks is possible – indeed likely – in just about any system and if you staking sensibly it should not bother you at all.
For our part we would recommend a 30-50 point bank if following the service, so for example if you have a £1,000 starting bank that would mean risking £33.33 per trade if operating on a 30-point basis.
As we say, with sensible staking like this a few losers now and then should be water off a duck’s back and not bother you at all.
Another possible approach would be to stake a fixed percentage of your bank on each selection, e.g. 2-3%. We haven’t crunched the numbers on this but expect you would now be sitting on an extremely tidy profit, well above the amount for level staking we have used for our review.
Anyway, just a few thoughts from us on how to approach things but the main point is that results have been excellent for this service and the odd drawdown now and then is to be expected and successful traders/gamblers don’t let it affect them.
As we say, it’s rare for the Bot to have a losing month so it’s come as a bit of a shock for members, but a reminder that having a large enough starting bank to withstand the losing runs and some patience is important when following any system.
They recommend a £5,000 bank if you are betting at £100 stakes so in that context if you joined at the start of October although you would be over £400 down that would still represent less than 10% of the bank which is a small amount in the grand scheme of things.
Anyway, let’s hope October was just a blip and they’ll be back to winning ways in November.
Yet another good month for Trade on Sports’ HT Overs Bot, with an additional 6 points profit (or £640 profit to £100 stakes) made since our last update.
That means they are now 55 points up for our trial overall (or £5,520 up using £100 flat stakes).
We have now been following the HT Overs Bot for a full year and the results have been excellent. We often say the holy grail of betting is consistency and the Bot has demonstrated remarkable consistency over the past year, steadily churning out the profits month after month. You can’t ask for much more really, with over five grand profit made from £100 stakes. It is one of the best footy betting/trading tools we have come across in some time.
Last time we mentioned the pre-match trading tool. We have followed a few of the live webinars with Pete which have been interesting, although there are a very low number of trades indicated from them – often just one or two, which isn’t really enough action in itself. Those with the time to use the tool themselves could find more trades of course, but it would be good if this could be turned into an alert service as well given that it works so well for the HT Overs Bot.
We will see what other things the team at Trade on Sports develop in the coming months, as it’s really a treasure trove of information and we feel the more of it they can automate for members the better.
Although the overall results were very good, it was actually a very up and down month with a run of seven consecutive losers early on in the month – the most the bot has had since starting up – followed by 12 straight winners. There was then another bad run over the weekend which just dragged the results down a bit unfortunately.
Overall though you have to say the results have been excellent with nearly £5,000 profit made since we started following the bot.
Some people have asked about the Quick Response bot but our analysis suggests it is not profitable to lay the draw with. It might be profitable to use it in the same way as the HT Overs Bot (i.e. backing another goal at 1.6), but there isn’t enough data on that to draw any conclusions yet.
We are also starting to investigating their pre-match trading tool which looks quite interesting so will report more on that in our next update.
These results are based on odds of 1.6 at 65 minutes, although the average seems to have been trending a little lower than that lately, but either way the results have been very good and solidly consistent throughout our trial.
With a high strike rate of 72%, this is proving to be a top system for betting on football in-play and long may it continue.
As mentioned last time, the odds of overs in a number of the games selected by the bot is quite low these days, often around 1.16 at HT, meaning by 65 mins (when entering the bet) the odds are often lower than 1.6.
So whilst we have been using average odds of 1.6 to record results, the actual average may be closer to 1.55, which would mean the total profit for the bot during our trial would be around 25 points. Either way though that is still a very nice amount of profit with such a high strike rate (around 70%) so you can’t complain.
Of the other bots they are testing, the HT 2 Ahead looks the most promising from what we can tell, with around 26 points profit made so far if backing two more goals at 61 minutes.
Trade On Sports have some live webinars planned soon to demonstrate some of their live trading and explain how some of the tools on their platform work, so those should be interesting.
We will report back on how they go, together with how the bots are doing, in our next update.
*We say “estimated” because essentially we are using a best guess of what the average odds of over 1.5 goals at 65 minutes are in the selected matches.
As alerts come in at all times of day and night it has not been possible to track the odds live, so we have had to do our best to estimate what that average odds would be.
Up until now we have assumed 1.6, but after tracking more of the odds live lately we believe the average may be closer to 1.55.
There are a number of Dutch matches and selections from high-scoring leagues where the odds are quite a bit below 1.6 at 65 minutes.
So if you took the average odds at 65 minutes to be 1.55 then the overall results would be 24 points up rather than 33.
That is still very good going whichever way you look at it though and with the high strike rate of around 70% this has been a very consistent and impressive performer.
Some people take a different approach and just request odds of 1.6 and then leave the bet to either be matched or not, which would mean some of the results recorded as winners on our spreadsheet would not have been matched – and conversely some recorded as voided would have been winners. Overall it would probably even itself out so we doubt the results would be very different doing it that way.
Anyway, they have also been testing some additional bots which have recorded some very promising results so we expect them to go live shortly.
Their bots operate in the Summer leagues as well so there are still alerts coming through, although of course not as many as during the main season as there are fewer fixtures.
The results on our spreadsheet are for backing the bot’s selections at 65 mins at average odds of 1.6, although there are other ways you could trade the selections (e.g. dripping them at 45, 60 and 75 mins). Some members have studied the different ways of following the bot and it appears the option we have recorded of backing at 65 mins is the most profitable.
There are also some other bots in beta mode which are showing a lot of promise, one which is over 50 points up and another two which are more than 20 points up each, so these are looking very good indeed.
Just to clarify that with the “bots” they have developed you still have to place the bets yourself, it is just that the bots are scanning the markets to find the opportunities.
Perhaps at some stage in the future they will have an auto-trade option, but for the time being you get the live alerts via the Telegram messenger app, which is straightforward to set up and follow, and then place the bets yourself.
All in all then we are really liking the look of Trade On Sports so far and think this is a very promising service.
*Correction – please note this previously stated the total profit was 25 points but there were a couple of errors in our spreadsheet that have now been corrected.
We have been taking a look at Trade On Sports for a while now and there is a lot to take in about the service.
They have a whole variety of features you can use, including:
– Stats Databases
– Chat Rooms
– Bets in a variety of sports including tennis, NHL, NBA and more
– Live in-play alerts for football
– Prematch to inplay stats
– And more besides
It can be a little overwhelming at first and difficult to know where to start.
However, the main feature at the moment in our opinion is their live “GameState Bot” which gives alerts at HT in football matches where it expects at least one more goal.
This has been operating since the start of October and has made substantial profit since starting up.
There are different ways you can follow the alerts, but it seems the most profitable is to put in a bet at the next goal up (so if it is 1-0 at HT, to back over 1.5 goals) at odds of 1.6, which on average gets matched at around the 65th minute if there are no goals up to that point.
Following this method has produced over 22 points profit (or £2200 to £100 flat stakes), which is pretty good going.
They have a number of other bots in live beta testing which are showing promise. One in particular involves betting that there will be at least one first half goal and has already amassed over 50 points profit.
There are also tennis bets sent out each day for players to lay and back and these are around 15 points up for the year so far.
Overall then we have been quite impressed with Trade On Sportsso far. The TOS Gamestate Bot has delivered very good profits so far and there is lots of potential in their other strategies under development.
It still feels a little like a work in progress rather than the finished article, but the service certainly seems to be going in the right direction.
Recently we have been spending more time looking at trading services rather than just tipsters and betting systems.
That’s because increasingly we are seeing that trading offers some advantages over traditional forms of betting.
Firstly, trading normally involves using the exchanges rather than the bookies, thus offering an attractive option for those who have had their bookie accounts restricted.
Secondly, with pre-event betting it can be difficult to find an edge with markets being so efficient these days. But once you go in-running, events can unfold in fast and unpredictable ways, offering the potential for the shrewd trader to find value by reacting quickly to how things are changing.
Thirdly – and in a related way – prices can fluctuate wildly in-running, meaning there is the potential to capitalise on these swings and make a decent profit from well-executed trades.
So with those advantages in mind we are looking at a relatively new but promising trading service called Trade On Sports.
The site is co-run by the respected Pete Nordsted, who some of you may know from his previous ventures including Premier Betting and numerous books on gambling he has published.
Together with some professional traders Pete has put together a range of resources for sports trading.
At the moment Trade on Sports covers 3 services:
• Trade on Tennis • Trade on Football • Ratings & Bets
You can join each service separately or you can join the Platinum service and receive everything. As a member you get access to a wealth of data and statistics via their apps, chat groups on Telegram and alerts for in-play trades on the relevant sports covered.
We have been following the service in a personal capacity for a while so decided it was about time we got a formal review going to record some of our findings and results.
Apparently they have some new software in the works for tennis trading so hopefully that will be available soon.
In the meantime though there is lots for us to get our teeth stuck into for the purposes of the review.
We will report back here soon with our initial findings on the trading services on offer and results achieved.
