14 Of The Very Best Tipsters Explored

The ground-breaking Best Tipster Guide comes in 3 key parts as follows:

  • The 2018 Best Tipster Guide featuring 4 new top tipster reviews due for release throughout 2018 (the first of which is out now!)
  • The 2017 Best Tipster Guide, featuring reviews of 5 more top tipsters, who continue to make consistent profits;
  • The original 2016 Best Tipster Guide, which featured our first 5 top-rated tipsters, each of whom have also continued to make a profit through 2017.

By purchasing access to the Best Tipster Guide, you will receive full access to all 14 detailed tipster reviews and unique tipster discounts.

You can find out exactly who these tipsters are and how you can start profiting from their advice with access to the Best Tipster Guide, but to give you a flavour, here is a brief rundown on 3 of the 14 tipsters and why they are so good…

1. The Tipster Up 457 Points Profit In 2 1/2 Years

Over the course of 2 and 1/2 years and 1176 bets, this tipster has made a fantastic profit of 457.1 points at a very impressive 14.5% Return on Investment.

This is even more of an achievement, when you consider they have achieved this by backing horses priced at around the 11/4 marker – effectively by backing 1st or 2nd favourites.

Furthermore, our review reveals the distinct edge their tips have both at Betfair SP and by backing them on the Betfair exchange each morning. Showcasing the possibility that you can follow this tipster quite readily on the betting exchanges.

2. The Racing Tipster Up 711.4% Bank Growth In 2017 (Plus Another 406% Growth Over The 2nd Half of 2016!)

This unique racing tipster service has been producing some phenomenal results for three years now.

In the second half of 2016 alone, this tipster made 812 points profit from 3845 bets at a Return on Investment of 16.64%. Most crucially of all, if following our recommended betting bank that equated to 406% bank growth in just a 6 month period!

2017 showed no let up in form either as this service made a mind-boggling 14,228.04 points profit from 7162 bets advised throughout the course of the year. This is a ROI of 15.27% and betting bank growth of an unbelievable 711.4%!

3. The Betting Guru With 484 Points Profit @ 21.8% ROI In 8 Years (Including a ridiculous 44.9% ROI in 2017!)

It takes a special tipster to make a profit over an 8 year period, but this is exactly what this racing guru achieved between 2009 and 2016 – averaging 60 points profit each year.

His simple 1-bet-a-day strategy that has proven to last the test of time and is extremely easy to follow. The 19.4% Return on Investment achieved long-term is testament to his success.

This outstanding form continued into 2017 with a whopping 139.3 points profit at 44.9% ROI added to his profit tally throughout the year.

Final Call – Fill In The SBC Restrictions & Closures Survey!

If yet to do so – make sure you fill in our 2016 Bookmaker Restrictions & Closures Survey before it closes on Tuesday the 9th August.

Featuring just 11 simple questions – your answers will help us to raise awareness of this issue – with a full analysis as to the depth of the problem due in our forthcoming FREE ‘Getting On’ report.

All who complete the survey can also enter a free prize draw to win a brand new Toshiba Laptop Computer.

You can read more on the survey and our planned report below…

——————————–

Take SBC’s 2016 Restrictions & Closures Bookie Survey

In my regular conversations with punters, one of the biggest issues often raised is the level of stake restrictions and account closures faced by many of them when betting.

For those unaware – certain bookmakers do operate a policy of either restricting the level of stake allowed or simply closing accounts from those punters they deem as ‘unprofitable’ – especially those betting on horse racing only. Some bookies are worse than others but after years of denying this problem exists, it is these days widely accepted as fact.

To get a handle on the depth of this problem, the Horseracing Bettors Forum (created by the BHA in August 2015 to represent punters interests) published their own findings recently which claimed that as many as 20,000 accounts had been closed in the past 6 months alone.

As useful as HBF’s survey was, I want to take this a step further and am inviting as many as you as possible to fill in our own 2016 Bookmaker Restrictions & Closures Survey, which I believe will uncover a lot more on this problem – including naming and shaming the very worst offenders.

Take SBC’s 2016 Restrictions & Closures Bookie Survey

All who fill in the survey can also enter a free prize draw to win a brand new

This survey features 11 simple questions, should take you no more than 2-3 minutes to fill in and your answers will help us to reveal:

  • The best & worst bookmakers when it comes to restrictions and closures;
  • Which sports and markets suffer the most restrictions;
  • The type of punters being restricted and how your staking amounts, bet frequency and method of betting impacts this;
  • The best & worst bookmakers as rated by you;
  • What tactics you can employ to help avoid betting restrictions

Why you should answer the survey (Plus how you can win a Toshiba Computer for doing so!)

First of all, be assured that you can fill in the survey completely anonymously – thus allowing you to say exactly what you think and share your experiences honestly. Most bookmakers view the Smart Betting Club as a major nuisance given our work helping punters make money betting (and consequently help the bookies lose it!) so you can be assured no details will be shared with them.

The complete findings from this survey will be revealed in a special FREE Report due to be released later on this year. Granting you full access to all of these results PLUS exposing the truth about bookmaker restrictions and closures to a wider audience. We ran a similar survey back in 2013 although this time we will be publishing our entire findings for free on the SBC website for all to view.

As the Smart Betting Club is 100% bookmaker independent, we are happy to name and shame the worst culprits (as well as highlighting those offering a good service) and will do so in this forthcoming report.

All who complete the survey can also enter a free prize draw to win a brand new Toshiba CB30 Chromebook. A superb laptop computer with a 13.3” screen, Celeron 2.16 GHZ processor and 9 hours of battery life – ideal for betting with!

Once you finish the survey you will be invited to enter the prize draw with the lucky winner to be revealed once the survey closes.

Help Spread The Word!

To make the survey is as impactful as possible, we want as many punters as possible to fill it in so your help in getting the word out on this will be essential!

The simple truth is that the more punters taking part, the greater the interest level will be from the powers that be in its results.

I also have held discussions with journalists from a number of major publications and broadcasters who are very interested in what this survey might uncover.

So once you fill it in, please feel free to share the survey link with your friends via Text, Email, Twitter, Facebook, Whatsapp – however and whichever way you choose to do so!

‘Getting On’ – Free Report Tackling This Huge Issue

This survey is the pre-cursor to the release later this summer of a specialist SBC Report ‘Getting On’, which will be published for free.

The goal of the ‘Getting On’ report is not only to raise awareness of this issue but to tackle it from all angles including:

  • Behind Enemy Lines – An exclusive interview with a bookmaker representative on restrictions, why they impose them and how it looks from their side of the fence;
  • The bookmaker ‘profiling’ software IEsnare AKA ‘Reputation Manager’, what it is, why it impacts you and how you can remove it from your computer;
  • Interviews with major movers and shakers in the betting and bookmaking industry – their views on the issue and its potential solutions;
  • Legislation and the Australian minimum bet laws explained – How you can demand a similar model is introduced in the UK;
  • Guidance from expert punters on the tactics they use to enable them to get their bets on despite restrictions and closures.
  • The sports & markets you need to focus on for profit in today’s betting world.

Look out for more details on the release of this report later and the findings of this survey later this year.

Case Study: Why This Tipster Is So Highly Rated


Revealed: The Anatomy of a ‘Hall Of Fame’ tipster

Our aim at the Smart Betting Club is simple – to help you make money from your betting, whether it be for the first time ever or by increasing the profits you are already making.  One way (amongst many more) in which we can do this is by pointing you towards the best tipsters in the market, the ones who are proven to make long term profits.

What makes the best, the best?

If you were to sit down and think about what exactly you would want from a tipping service you would pay for, I would imagine your wish list would look something like this:

  • Excellent results – after all, you want to make money!
  • Proven over the long term – you don’t want to be investing in anything that might just be a flash in the pan with some lucky recent results that make them look good.
  • Affordable – big fees can eat into your profits in a big way!
  • Good explanations behind each bet – it’s always nice to know exactly why you’re putting your money down.
  • Odds availability – something that is massively important and often overlooked, you need to know that you can match the results the service is claiming.

We don’t feel that asking for the above is asking for too much!  But sadly, there are so many so called expert tipsters that fail to put a tick in these boxes.

The good news is, there are many that do…

March2016_468x60

A case study: Northern Monkey Punter

Northern Monkey Punter is a long time favourite of our members.  One of the elite Smart Betting Club Hall of Fame services, it was voted as Best Horse Racing Tipping Service and Best Overall Tipping Service (all sports) for 2016 in our annual member’s poll.  That’s quite a thing, but then when you consider it won both prizes in the 2015 vote too. Best of all, Northern Monkey offer ALL SBC members an anytime 2-week free trial of their service.

Why don’t we break NMP down?  That way, we’ll be able to see the anatomy of an SBC Hall of Fame tipster.

Long term success, a proven edge, low fees…

Although primarily a flat racing specialist, this year’s Cheltenham Festival witnessed Northern Monkey build quite the antepost portfolio.  It was clear that he had spent a huge number of hours analysing form, and the results for his subscribers were spectacular:

But remember what we were saying about not wanting to pay up to what might be a short term flash in the pan?  Well, Northern Monkey has been proofing his bets to us here at the SBC since 2010.  We have six years of proven results which have provided an excellent long term Return On Investment of 12%.

You might worry that such a successful tipster might be charging huge subscription fees, but that couldn’t be further from the truth.  Northern Monkey continually rides high in our “Best Low Cost Horse Racing Service” table that can be found in the SBC’s Tipster Profit Report, issued regularly to all members.

With all this plus every single bet Northern Monkey advises accompanied by a detailed rationale that explains why the horse is being tipped, you can see that all the boxes in our essential checklist of what makes a great service have been ticked.  That is, all apart from one – that of odds availability.

Better Results Than The Tipster Himself?!?

We find, from our analysis, that there are certain tipping services that are only too happy to shout to the rooftops about their massive profits.  And it is often true that they did advise their members to back the winners they claim.

What they don’t tell you though is that the odds they’ve used to record their results are likely to have been completely unobtainable by the vast majority of their members.  If a tipster uses a standout price, being offered by just the one bookmaker, or perhaps two, it doesn’t take much before those odds are slashed as a flood of wagers suddenly hits that book.  A horse tipped at 6/1 can very easily be 7/2 just a minute or two after the tipster sent his email out, and this makes it impossible for you to get anywhere approaching the results boasted about in those flashy ads!

At the Smart Betting Club we take this issue very seriously.  When we review a tipster, we conduct a thorough analysis of odds movements at various time intervals after the bets have been released.  This means we can provide you with a true picture of exactly what level of profit you can reasonably expect to make, and not some pie in the sky figure you’re never going to get anywhere near.

In our latest Tipster Profit Report we showed members that Northern Monkey Punter’s odds recording policy is so fair that anyone who can place his bets within 15 minutes of receiving the email each day can reasonably expect to boost their ROI by a massive 4%!

To give that context, that’s an extra £578 per year profit to Northern Monkey’s own official results if working with a £2,000 bank.

Now, we can see that every box has been ticked.

If you are interested in the Northern Monkey Punter service, then all SBC members are welcome to take up an exclusive anytime 2-week trial of their service to sample what they offer. This is part of the unique Tipster Discounts & Deals we negotiate on behalf of our members (read more on them here)

FIND OUT WHO THE BEST TIPSTERS ARE

Northern Monkey is a proud and long-standing member of our revered Hall of Fame tipping services, but is only one of a number of tipsters who meet our strict criteria.  As you have read, we put tipsters through many stringent tests before we include them on our list of the best tipsters in the industry.

You can find out who these tipsters are, and read all our analysis on each and every one of them, simply by signing up to the SBC today.  Best of all, you can sign up totally risk free due to our 30-day money back guarantee, so if you find that our service is not for you, then you can get a full refund.  This means you have everything to gain and nothing to lose in joining our exclusive club!

So if you are looking to find out who the very best tipsters are to follow and start making serious betting profits, then sign up for a Smart Betting Club membership today.

Increase Your Chance Of Betting Successfully From 1.5% to 85.1%

 

Dear Friend,

I’m going to be a little bit direct in today’s email, so excuse my blunt approach…but I feel it is vitally important as it surrounds the reality that is betting for profit and the difference that genuine expert advice can make.

To help explain my point – I want to discuss first of all the generally accepted statistic that approximately 1.5% of all punters who bet actually make a profit from their betting. Or to put it another way just 1 person out of every 75.

Whichever way you look at it – it’s a fairly damning statistic and one which goes to show how difficult it is to win when betting, especially when doing so on your own.

If, however, you then compare this 1.5% stat to the results of our 2016 Awards Reportwhereby 85.1% of all voting SBC members made a profit from their betting in 2016, I think you might be able to see the point of this email.

What’s more this 85.1% figure is a 1.5% increase on the same question from last year, indicating a gradual improvement on performance figures obtained by SBC members.

Profit Loss SBC

46.3% Making 5k+

To find out just how much profit the 85.1% who voted made, we also asked them to categorise just how much they were up or down in 2015.

It turns out that the most popular profit category was for those making £10,000+ profit with 28.7% of all who voted making this five figure sum. Next up was those up between £5,000 and £9,999 profit with 17.6% falling into this category.

Combining these top two categories effectively meant that 46.3% of all who voted actually made a minimum of £5,000 profit last year. Not bad at all.

Here is the full breakdown of results warts and all (including the losses some punters made) from 2015:

Still, 85.1% of SBC members compares very nicely to the 1.5% general public stat and just goes to show the difference that our tipster reviews and ratings can make.

All of the results in this email were based on a straight-forward poll where we asked SBC members to honestly answer just how their betting fared last year. Each member could only vote once and no incentives were offered for answers to ensure they were 100% fair and accurate.

The full results of this poll have been published in our 2016 Betting & Tipsters Award Report, where as a service we took the pulse of just how last year fared for our members.

Your 3 Worst Bookmakers From 2015

 

Last Friday saw the release of our much anticipated 2016 Tipster Betting Awards Report, which included your votes for the Worst Bookmaker… and here are the results!

Voted for by both SBC members and you the general public, this award (or should we say wooden spoon!) is designed to highlight those bookmakers falling short of the standards we demand as punters.

Whether it is offering poor value odds, shoddy customer service or simply not letting you get your full stakes on – you voted in your droves in what was a very competitive category!

So, without further ado, here is how you voted:

Worst Bookmaker Results from SBC Awards Report

Boylesports Spoilsports

Top of the heap for 2015 as your worst rated bookmaker was none other than Boylesports, who picked up 21.9% of the vote to cement their position as a bookmaker many punters love to hate. They are the recipient of our lovely wooden spoon worst bookmaker award!

Not far behind in the rotten bookie stakes was the winner from the last 2 years, Stan James, who notched up 20.3% of the vote to suggest they still have much to do to convince punters to use their services.

And finally, the bronze award winner was a relative newcomer to the worst bookmaker stakes –Ladbrokes about whom 15.1% of you ranked as the pits. Considering they didn’t feature even feature in the top 8 worst bookies last year – that is quite a fall from grace.

Other contenders worth a mention here include the likes of Betfred, Racebets, Bet Victor &Skybet who all polled a considerable number of votes.

SBC Awards 2016

Avoid The Worst…

As well as helping us have a bit of fun at their expense, there is a serious side to this award – namely to help raise awareness of the bookmakers often not worth bothering with.

One of the main reasons these bookmakers are rated so poorly is due to their notoriety as firms that both limit stakes and close accounts for anyone with even a modicum of ability.

Should you for example bother opening accounts with Stan James and Boylesports if you expect to win money betting? In my opinion it is often not worth the time, unless you are keen to take advantage of new account opening offers or simply keen to try to win as much as you can, while you can.

In terms of our own tipster reviews, we regularly mark tipsters down who quote and settle bets to top prices available with the likes of Stan James and Boylesports. Very often, such prices are a work of fiction as in reality they are not available to all but losing punters. It’s high time the likes of the Racing Post and other media publications considered removing them from any tips or odds comparison tables they produce. It might cause a reduction in advertising revenue but it would be to the benefit of all punters.

Use The Best…

Alongside your votes on the worst bookmakers, in our 2016 Awards Report, you can also find details on just who was rated the best bookmaker – and those you should consider using for your own betting.

Not all of the best bookmakers are household names as some lack the marketing budget or ‘brand awareness’ of the UK high street giants, but often they can make a heck of a difference to your betting bottom-line.

Whether this be through offering better value odds or simply standing winning bets or accommodating shrewd punters, it’s well worth utilising their services.

Why Backing The ‘Wrong’ Winners Can Cost You Big Time!

 

In today’s betting world, there is one principle that you must stick to if you want to maximise your betting profits…and it’s one the majority of punters ignore!

I’m talking about punters who follow tipsters (as many very successful punters do) and their reaction when they are sent a hot tip.

The immediate reaction from most punters is to get their bet on immediately as they are desperate to be involved. Very often in doing so they grab the best price they can on the tips put forward.

We’ve all done it, and most of us continue to do it.  But this is exactly why so many gamblers fail to make the level of profit that they really should.

So what is this principle that can transform your betting performance overnight?

It is the principle of securing value. 

Securing value really should be the first and last commandment for anyone who bets, because if you are betting value in every single wager you strike, you will make more money.

And the greater the level of value you secure in each of your bets, the greater the level of profit you will makE.

The Best Tipster Guide - SBC

The power of value

Take a look at the following tables taken from a very successful horse racing tipster we reviewed in a recent SBC Magazine. It showcases how the odds on the tips they supplied moved after a period of time.

Over 90 bets we observed, the average odds for the tips supplied came in at 5.28/1. Yet what we wanted to find out is just what odds would be available after 15 minutes, 60 minutes and at SP.

As the first table reveals they shifted down to 4.94/1 after 15 minutes, 4.64/1 after 60 minutes and 4.03 at SP.

Odds Tracking SBC

Now to some of you that might not sound too much, especially the difference between the 5.28/1 and 4.94/1 available after 15 minutes…yet you would be wrong.

As the next table reveals, the actually ROI difference is as much as 9.7% within this 15-minute time period. After 60 minutes it becomes 16.5% whilst at SP, you would actually make a loss.

Odds Testing SBC

The lesson we can learn from this is that if your bets don’t carry as much value as they should do, your ROI figures will shrink and potentially dramatically so.

You could ultimately turn a profitable tip into a loss-making one, simply by taking a bad price.

And once again we return to that key concept…securing value on your bets!

Punters making their betting pay

The above is one of the key lessons made clear in one of our latest series of Practical Punter Reports – as penned by semi-pro gamblers making their betting pay.

Sticking to these value betting principles is a tough ask sometimes, especially if you miss a winning bet due to the value not being there.

For many a gambler, there can be no worse feeling then missing a winning bet…and especially one that had been tipped up to you earlier on. You should have been on…yet you weren’t!

Yet if the tip is for 8/1 and only 6/1 is available – the act of taking 6/1 could end up costing you more in the long run.

However, as this latest Practical Punter Report outlines, by taking this approach long-term you’ll miss out on backing a lot more losers than winners, and the winners you do back will all be at prices carrying exceptional value.

The reward for such discipline is a much higher Return on Investment across your betting portfolio.

By simply walking away when the odds aren’t fully in your favour, you’ll be placing fewer bets…but making more money.
