Football Money Maker Method 3

October 19, 2018 By reviewer Leave a Comment

It is over 4 years since I first looked at a strategy from Chris and it is fair to say they have all done what they claimed and as the series has progressed they have become more and more simple to operate. The latest continues that theme and is a straightforward back betting system operating in the football goals markets. There is no trading required to see the system profitable but those who have to watch matches involving their bets may be able to cash out if it looks as though the initial bet will fail and thus reduce any losses.

A quick word on Chris’ refund policy – there is no refund available once you have purchased as the information is in your knowledge from that point. This is made clear on the marketing page so if you are not prepared to risk £42 then do not buy.

As ever there is a comprehensive video covering the theory behind the strategy and how it should be applied and absolutely no prior knowledge is assumed so you could use this even if you do not have a clue what football might be.  Using a free football prediction website the strategy looks for opportunities where goals are likely to be scarce and by then checking further stats bets may be identified in the Over/Under 2.5 or 3.5 markets.

I would stress here that users are likely to adopt varying attitudes to the information and so may make more or less bets than me. With use a follower becomes well versed in the potential and whilst there can never be a sure thing in any sporting event you should be able to limit your risk to personally acceptable levels. Because of my experience using Chris’ systems I can get up and running quickly – new users may wish to paper trade for a while to see how they read the information. If you do have any questions Chris will always respond to emails offering appropriate advice.

Another good news feature of FMMM3 is that the odds for bets are much higher than other systems. The minimum suggested is 1.20 and if you are brave you might get some bets at near to evens. Personally I have adopted an approach that takes the lower risk bet so long as the odds are 1.20 which in practice means the Under/Over 3.5 goals market.

We are 2 months in to the review and I have found 162 bets – as explained the number will vary by user. Of these 25% have been in the higher odds range and overall 141 (87%) successful. Staking 1 point from a 20 point bank a profit of 28.6 points has been seen at an ROI of 17.62%. An excellent return for relatively low risk football betting. This is a capital profit of over 140% so you could safely withdraw your starting bank and play with the winnings alone.

It took 3 bets at £25 stakes to cover the subscription cost and the betting bank has not seen any draw down in the trial. Certainly good value for money offering a long term strategy for users with minimal risk.

Football Bet Data

February 9, 2018 By reviewer Leave a Comment

I make no apology for repeating the review I undertook in 2014 – the service is still excellent and worth serious study for those who want to devise their own betting strategies and not rely on tipsters.

Every now and then we come across a little goldmine and this service may well just be one. It will appeal to the statistically minded football betting fraternity especially those who want to develop their own systems.

Initial access is free so you can see what is available and there is a video showing how to use the service. If you want to make full use of things you will need to upgrade to advanced membership.

There are 2 main elements to the service – historic data and predictions. Both cover some 65 leagues across the world and go back as far as the 1997-8 season. Any report that you generate can be exported to Excel and then developed further as the user requires.

I have included an example of a report downloaded plus the analysis that is derived automatically from the report (don’t worry about the actual figures on this – my report was just to illustrate the way data is presented and not aimed at a killer system!)

You can see that example here

Systems can be saved by the user so that reports can be run as each week’s events become live. Because of the ever changing nature of the input data the reports are considered accurate for events up to the date run. They include the predicted odds and the maximum odds considered applicable as well as final score number of goals and result forecasts.  The odds predictions calculations are explained in a PDF and this demonstrates the great detail which is underpinning this service. Users can define their requirements to very specific settings and of course refine these as they review the out put.

Using the service is relatively straightforward even though the interface is a bit clunky – no doubt a product of the longevity of the service and the significant amount of underlying data that needs to be made available. Downloading the output is simple.

In addition to the main services (monthly/annual subscription) there is an additional product which attracts a one off payments. The Betfair Tool is an Excel download which allows the user to green up on any game where there is an in play market. The tool is used in conjunction with the score predictions from the main service.

There is no doubt that this site offers much useful and potentially profitable information for those who are prepared to put in some effort to interpret it for their personal use. If users have questions the customer service is both prompt and effective.

To investigate whether the products are useful for you will take a small investment – if the basic site information does not convince you – but the amount involved is miniscule and not really a consideration if you are serious. On this basis we are happy to recommend members consider the offerings.

 

Football Bet Data – Review Update 10/07/2014

Earlier in the year we reviewed this service which has been around since 2006. It is the brainchild of Chris who looks after everything personally but clearly does things right as evidenced by the positive comments we have seen since publishing the review.

The service website has recently been given a makeover and additional features have been added which improve further the potential value of the service.

Note – February 2018

I spoke with Chris who is as on the ball as ever and tweaking the service when required. He tells me a revamp of the website is in hand and should be completed by the summer when there will also be more video training available.

Don’t forget to take a look at the sister site which offers a similar service for horse racing – review here – and you can access both sites for a reduced overall subscription.

Excellent value whatever option you take and still well worth investigating.

Exponential Football Betting Service

January 20, 2018 By reviewer Leave a Comment

The background here is excellent – Ryan ran the successful Zero Hype operation before family issues forced a discontinuance for a couple of years. Exponential is the new vehicle which offers systems and strategies developed by Ryan personally. He has always been hot on customer service and this has continued. All selections are backed by him personally and so he has a strong vested interest in being profitable.

This element of the Exponential site offers a straightforward win tipping service for football and unlike some of the more trumpeted services concentrates on the major leagues where predictability is more certain. This may mean fewer selections but if the end result is a profit that is fine. Average price to date has been around 1.80 for pre-match selections.

The strategy for the service is simple – each bet aims to win 0.5% of the progressive balance so if you started with £1,000 the initial target is £5. Should a loser occur then the loss is recovered over 2 bets so stakes never become disproportionate to your bank and importantly your mental state! The majority of bets are placed in the Match markets with Over/Under and Both to score the support acts.

Selections are advised by email for pre-match bets and should a bet be advised in play this is done via a Whats App group message. No analysis is given –  although Ryan will always be happy to debate his reasoning with you individually if you wish – and the pre match selections are usually at least 2 hours before the game. It is suggested Betfair is used for placing bets but there is no reason why bookmakers cannot also be raided. Initially it was suggested that Betsender Bot be used as this calculates the staking including any recovery and places the bets just before kick off. However, recently some issues have arisen and an expansion into additional markets such as Asian Handicap has meant that the recommended procedure is now to place bets directly on your chosen platform.

Since starting the review I have seen over 150 pre match bets and a further 35 in play – the latter are less than Ryan will be showing on his results as I am aware I have missed some alerts mainly due to a pathetic G4 signal in the area I live. Readers can certainly rely on the site results disclosure as being accurate.

It is fair to say the pre match selections have been more successful than those in play but both are showing a profit over the trial. The strike rate for pre-match is 57.24% and in-play 60% but the latter tend to be a lower odds and so the return is a little less. I know that a points profit is the usual yardstick for services but with the staking plan involved here this can be a bit misleading so I prefer to highlight the bank growth – over 20% – and the ROI which is 7.82% to date. For a soccer service with relatively low odds and such a conservative staking plan this is very acceptable.

At £29.99 per month the subscription is firmly in the mid range and perhaps the only question mark is the bank needed to make it profitable – my subs would have been £240 over the trial to date and so an initial profit target of £10 would have seen these covered and some cream left over. This would mean staking between £15 and £20 for most selections to date. Liquidity is unlikely to be a problem in the markets used for the service.

I am happy to add this service to the positive category and will continue to monitor it. Good for those with limited time who want to be guided closely in what can be a rather volatile sphere of betting.

Football Money Maker – Method 2

January 13, 2018 By reviewer Leave a Comment

As with every system/strategy that I have seen from the author the description of the product is very accurate and there should be no surprises if you do decide to buy. Readers will note that there is no guarantee available should you purchase the method and this is made very clear on the marketing page. I understand why Chris makes this condition and consider it fair – once accessed the product is within your knowledge base and so whether you choose to use it is then down to you. The initial risk is minimal and if you have any issues with using the method then full customer support is available.

On signing up you will receive access to a 69 minute video training file which explains the theory and the practicalities of the method in great detail. A newbie with no betting experience could use the method without the need to refer elsewhere – existing customers will be able to reduce their time involvement if they wish.

The method involves back betting only on football games with no need to monitor the matches as they are played. Selections are identified initially from a free to use prediction website and then checked against the Betfair odds to finalise any bet. The target return on selections is a minimum of 5% of your stake but unlike other methods should the odds be too low initially it is suggested that you set a minimum price and keep the selection to go live in play. Thus if the match does not pan out quite as the initial odds suggest the price is likely to increase and meet your specified minimum thus allowing bets which would otherwise have not qualified.

But where the initial bet is potentially going to be missed because of the low odds there is a second element to the method which offers a higher odds option albeit at slightly increased risk.

The selection process is simple and takes only a few minutes – perhaps a quarter of an hour when a full weekend programme is being played. The intention is that bets are placed on the Betfair exchange which will allow the keep to be used for initially low odds qualifiers. My approach is to be fairly cautious with the predictions and not use leagues that are less well known as well as arbitrarily excluding some where I know goals are less frequent. Users may well add their own additional filters/research to help their cause.

A 20 point bank is advised with 1 point level staking to be reviewed when the bank has doubled. I have not checked in detail but a 1 point progressive stake might be more profitable with a ratchet applied (ie the stake does not reduce when a loser is encountered).

I was able to start the trial pre launch and have now seen 122 bets which made the odds as well as a further 25 where the first goal was scored too early for the bet to be taken. With 117 winning bets across the 2 strategies the strike rate is 93.6% and an overall profit of 5.3 points at an ROI of 4.27% has been achieved. This is a capital profit of 26.5% and things would have been much better but for Real Madrid and Chelsea both failing to even score on the same day – a salutary lesson that almost anything can happen in the betting world and probably will. Both elements are profitable, with the initial option now marginally ahead after those 2 games.

The indications are that this is another successful betting method from Chris. A good capital profit has been seen and the risk appears pretty low along with a minimal time investment required. At a one off cost of just £35 the method is good value and should be capable of use for many years. I have classified as positive and will be continuing to monitor for a further period.

Update 31/3/2018: Approaching 400 selections now and the strategy remains profitable with a 54% capital profit in just under 2 months. The strike rate has improved slightly to 94.9% although the ROI remains stubbornly below 4%. A look at the results will show quite a number of initial qualifiers where the in play odds have not reached the required level due to early goals in the matches. And interesting that most of the losing bets are where the initial odds for 1 goal scored were below the minimum and the match did not reach 2 goals.

Although I am not quite so taken with this strategy as its predecessor it does pretty well what it says it will and is a low risk profitable option that should be considered. The one off cost remains good value.

Draw Doubles

January 3, 2018 By reviewer Leave a Comment

This service comes from a well established author who has generally proved to be straightforward in his dealings with the public. His Banker Bets service has stood the test of time and so it was with some positive anticipation that we reviewed this new offering which is a system based process identifying potential draws from world football. Selections are emailed in sets of three (always in good time for placing bets) and the idea is that singles and doubles are set for each batch of games. Odds are around the 3 mark for the games and so if just betting singles a success on any 1 of the games will mean break even.

Bets can be placed with any bookmaker or exchange and using Oddschecker or similar will allow you to find the best odds for the doubles – with up to 6 sets of 3 bets on a day this may take a while though! A betting bank of 50 points is suggested if you are just placing singles, 150 if just doubles or 200 combined. Each bet is staked at 1 point.

When the service was launched in January it was offered on a free trial basis until mid February (subsequently extend to the end of March) with the testing pre launch showing a profit from mid October of 35 points if betting just singles and 73 points for doubles. These figures are now used on the site and marketing emails as part of the results and while I have no reason to doubt them they were not proofed and this is one of my pet hates for any service. Betting Gods are another prime example of this – the pre launch testing results are then quoted as what subscribers will have achieved when in reality they did not have the chance to place those bets. Many other review sites seem to fall for this ploy which is disappointing as only performance under the true pressure of public gaze is really pertinent.

You will note that it was necessary to extend the free trial and of course this was because the initial performance for the service has been poor despite early promise when 3 doubles were successful. After 3 months this figure has reached 21 (thanks to 6 coming from cancelled games after bets placed and thus a single also counts as a double) from a total of more than 350 bets. Although not suggested by the author I thought it might be interesting to see how many trebles came in – just 4 from 120 in all of which 2 included cancelled games.

Please bear in mind when looking at the detailed results that the trebles have increased the overall loss shown – the summary figures above show just the service recommended betting. Even so it is not a happy picture with a small loss (4 points) if using singles only and 49 points for the doubles. Many of the matches end with a single goal difference in the score but of course this is no real comfort.

The lesson here seems to be that a 2.5 month test is not sufficient to consider a system ready for general sale. Some clients have indicated that better odds than advised can be obtained on occasion but the underlying performance has not been good enough to justify a paid subscription at this time. I am sure the service is offered in good faith and there is a 30 day guarantee to allow a look at how it all works in practice. But you need a pretty thick skin to accept that the majority of your bets are not going to win and there will be long losing runs with the service.

Our results do not support a recommendation here and although a genuine service we have to categorize as failed based on our results.

Football Lay Bets

November 28, 2017 By reviewer Leave a Comment

Despite the claim that this service is “one of the most profitable football tipping services on the planet” the marketing page is not to overdone and unusually for this type of service the author readily agreed to a review. It is a pretty simple concept – a daily email is sent advising teams in soccer games that are not expected to win and thus you should be able to lay them in the main match result market. Alternatively, if you do not like laying you can place back bets in the Double Chance market backing the other team.

At the outset we were given some additional thoughts on the betting and in particular a maximum lay price of 6.0 was advised. The bets can be placed at any time after receipt of the advice and as the coverage of leagues is quite wide it could pay to wait until nearer kick off or ask for a price and put in the keep. What you cannot do is bet at BSP as the author suggested – there is no such price for football games and certainly no option to place such a bet.

In general the tips are received in good time on the day of the match – I was however surprised to see that one tip was rescinded half an hour or so after being sent out for no good reason and if the service advice is followed the bet would have been placed before the change was received.

After a successful start on day 1 we then saw 4 consecutive unsuccessful bets and the service did not recover from this with continuing losing bets and the advised bank of 25 points completely depleted after just 26 bets. I am pretty sure this is the quickest loss of a whole betting bank that I have seen in just over 7 years of reviewing. Naturally I asked the author what advice he would give his subscribers in the circumstances but did not receive a response despite a reminder. The bets continued to be advised and no mention was made of the losses incurred. To be fair there has been a slight recovery since then but nobody in their right mind would have been placing cash on the selections after day 3.

In the results spreadsheet I have included what would have occurred if the Double |Chance Option had been followed and here the bank would have been blown after 25 bets.

The author offered subscribers and potential subscribers a PDF which he said gave the insight into his methods and would allow readers to expand their betting activities in the field. Anybody who has downloaded this will have been staggered at the amateur nature of the document which is a rambling and imprecise and would not really help – no doubt this is the plan so that people will then subscribe but if he really derives his selections from such sloppy theories then I for one would be steering well clear.

Any service that blows a betting bank must be regarded as failed and at least there is a 60 day refund policy here which is more than adequate! One to avoid.

PS 4/1/2018 – There is currently an issue with the access to the results PDF. If you would like me to send you a copy just drop me an email or ask on the thread.

Winning Footy Tips

October 27, 2017 By reviewer Leave a Comment

Good and profitable football tipping services are almost as rare as an England World Cup win. Punters tend to think they can select the majority of games themselves and so tipsters have to look for a niche to attract subscribers. In this case we have the profitable every year since 2012 history which coupled with the average odds for selections being above evens the service seemed to have potential – hence the review.

Steve, the author welcomes new subscribers with the advice that he backs all selections himself and that all tips are recommended at a 1 point stake with a 100 point bank being suggested. Emails are received on Fridays and Mondays and cover the next few days – matches tend to be selected from the major European leagues and a wide range of markets are used. As well as the usual 1×2, BTTS  and Draw No Bet we have seen another 8 markets including HT/FT, Goals scored and multiples.

A total of 271 bets have been seen with 150 in the 1×2 category. Multiples and Over/Unders are the next most popular bets. As indicated on the website average odds are around the 2.3 mark.

And the results have not kept up with past performance, a strike rate of 46.5% after discounting the push bets. The pattern has been pretty constant through the 14 months of the review with the bank hovering around its starting point finishing 9.85 points down after peaking at a profit of 6.5 early on. Every time you thought a recovery was under way a series of losing bets stopped things in their tracks.

All in all a rather disappointing outcome and the service will now have to re brand its website as they cannot claim a profit very year. Although the cost is low end there is little value in pursuing losing tips over a long period and we must therefore classify the service as failed genuine as it is.

Football Money Maker – Method 1

October 25, 2017 By reviewer Leave a Comment

It is over 3 years since I first looked at a strategy from Chris and it is fair to say they have all done what they claimed and as the series has progressed they have become more and more simple to operate. The latest continues that theme and is a straightforward back betting system operating in the football goals markets. There is no trading required to see the system profitable but those who have to watch matches involving their bets may be able to cash out if it looks as though the initial bet will fail and thus reduce any losses.

A quick word on Chris’ refund policy – there is no refund available once you have purchased as the information is in your knowledge from that point. This is made clear on the marketing page so if you are not prepared to risk £37 then do not buy.

As ever there is a comprehensive video covering the theory behind the strategy and how it should be applied and absolutely no prior knowledge is assumed so you could use this even if you do not have a clue what football might be.  As the system is so simple there is not too much I can say here without giving things away. When a bet is identified a 1 point back stake is advised based on a 20 point bank. There are 2 options for bets, the second offering higher odds.

Chris has found that prediction sites for soccer are a rich source of potential leads to profitable betting and Football Money Maker continues in that tradition. One specific site is used to examine forecast scores and potential goals scored with the criteria for a match becoming a bet simple to find. Once found the odds in the relevant goals markets on Betfair are checked and assuming a minimum of 1.05 a bet may be placed and that is it. The selections may be made on the day or even the day before matches but you may need to wait until nearer kick off for liquidity to build up in some of the less well known leagues. On a busy Saturday it may take 15 minutes to find all the qualifiers – each selection would take under 60 seconds if done individually and in practice you will find ways of speeding up the process.

I have been testing the strategy for a full month now and despite the inevitable International break have found 253 matches that I would place bets on – there could well be more if you are prepared to look in the more obscure leagues and this is a personal choice. For this reason all users are likely to have varying results. I have been fairly conservative in my selections generally not going below the second tier in any country – with an average of around 10 games per day this is plenty for me. Roughly 1 in 6 selections was for strategy 2.

With 243 winning games (96%) the strategy is shown to work and although I have not managed to beat the author’s 47 match winning streak (my best to date is 44) the bank has benefited by just over 11 points (55% capital increase) at an ROI of 4.51% which reflects the low risk. The analysis on the results display shows strategy 2 is offering a higher ROI at around 13% but naturally there is greater risk.

It took just over a week for me to recover the one off cost of the system based on a £250 bank. There has been no draw down since I started and the bank is now approaching the stage where you may consider compounding the stakes to reflect the profits made. If you are prepared to invest additional time it may well be possible to improve returns by using multiples.

So yet again Chris has offered a product that does what it says it will. It will not make you rich overnight but if used as instructed should allow a worthwhile return and would make a sensible portfolio addition as a low risk element.

I am happy to classify the strategy as Positive and will continue to monitor and update the performance data regularly.

Update 31/12/2017: 

Approaching 500 bets now and it is a case of more of the same. The key here is to be careful with your selections rather than try to add extra marginal games – even then there will be the result that goes against you but by adopting a steady approach you should make some cash. I have managed to improve the performance a little by seeking slightly higher odds than initially available and so be able to include games that would otherwise not reach the threshold odds. (This strategy is used in Chris’s new service to a wider extent.)

Of the 483 selections I have made – remember that individuals are likely to have differing selections depending on the time they check, the risk they are prepared to take etc – there have been 21 losing bets so a strike rate in excess of 95% has been achieved. The profit is 19.9 points which is just under 100% of capital gained and the ROI is 4.12% overall with the 2nd strategy continuing to offer the best return at 10.53%. Unless you are considering withdrawing profit Chris now suggests you should recalculate your stake based on the new bank.

There is no change to the Positive classification and the service remains good value at the low risk end of the market.

Update 31/3/2018: A further strong performance from the strategy with the bank now standing at more than 4 times its starting point having benefited from the stake increase. It should be safe enough to start withdrawing profits regularly now and yet preserving your capital fully. This strategy does seem to be a little stronger than its successor.

The pretty minimal one-off subscription continues to be well justified.
