Pinnacle Odds Dropper – Major New ‘Hall of Fame’ Service Review In SBC 143

Posted on by Peter Ling

The very latest SBC Magazine (Issue #143) has just been released, whereby we have a very detailed focus on Pinnacle Odds Dropper (or POD), a service that tracks sharp bookmaker moves to provide opportunities to profit from soft bookmakers (who are slower off the mark in adjusting their prices!).

Having used POD ourselves for several months and with a variety of benchmarked results to showcase, this review outlines just why we rate it of ‘Hall of Fame’ standard and how you can use it to eke a profit too.

Issue 143 of the SBC Magazine contains:

  • A full, in-depth review of POD based on our extensive experience using it.
  • Results breakdowns of the service, with real life users’ betting records analysed.
  • A video tutorial and walkthrough guide with Dylan, the service’s co-creator and owner.
  • Details on a significant SBC member discount on the cost of joining POD.
  • SBC News, with all of June’s key updates documented in one place
  • A comprehensive look at the wider ‘goings on’ in the betting world, with our ‘social media watch’ featuring some very interesting stories.

📈 A New Generation of Tipsters – Chasing Steamers In Depth Review out now!

Posted on by Josh P

A new generation of tipster services are doing something quite different.

Artificial Intelligence, the capacity to process large data sets and the facility to scrape odds and data from sites like Pinnacle make following market moves a viable betting angle for those looking for a considerable edge.

That is exactly what the latest service under the SBC review microscope – Chasing Steamers – has done.

Chasing Steamers is a tipster we have been tracking all year and after building up a considerable bank of nearly 3,000 bets in a personal betting ‘snapshot’, we have been able to test out their their service and conduct our usual analysis in a full review.

This detailed review is out now and available instantly with an SBC Membership (You can also access a 15% SBC member discount on Chasing Steamers too!)

Chasing Steamers – How It Works

Although the technology behind Chasing Steamers may be sophisticated, the underlying principle is not.

When money arrives for a selection on the world’s largest sharp bookmaker, Pinnacle, you receive a Telegram notification informing you of everything you need to know, including:

  1. The selection name
  2. How much the odds have dropped
  3. What odds you need to beat
  4. The minimum odds required for a ‘10% value bet’

 

To profit from this information, all you need to do is back the selection with any bookmaker(s) who are a lot slower to update their odds.

So in the example above, Pinnacle have priced up this player at odds of 2.38, yet he is available with the likes of bet365 at 3.5 (Although Bet365 are used for comparison purposes – the reality is you can follow this service with a huge number of bookmakers)

Hundreds of varied betting records have been documented by Christian from Chasing Steamers and to add to the ‘evidence base’, both Josh and I had a period of profitably using the service in real time (with real money!) earlier on this year.

Sign Up For The Full Story (& A Discount!)

Chasing Steamers is a real way to grow a bank and with so many bets provided each day, week and month, it offers the opportunity to do this very quickly.

As with any service, you need to consider things like the amount of time you have available, the bookmaker accounts you have access to and how big your bankroll is before subscribing.

The full lowdown and our analysis of Chasing Steamers is available now with a paid SBC Membership in an 18 page review just published

Our latest tipster review looks at a service with a 12.7% ROI at Pinnacle!

Posted on by Alex Lyons

The latest SBC tipster review is out now and focuses on a tennis tipster with a ROI of over 12% taking on one of the sharpest bookmakers around – Pinnacle.

Beating a sharp bookmaker like this is one of the hardest things to do in betting so when someone has done it for nearly 3 years and achieved such a high % ROI then it really makes you pay attention!

The tipster in question is called Aidan and he is a tipster available on the Pyckio website.

He has been seeking out value in the tennis markets since he wrote his dissertation on the efficiency of tennis betting markets at university.

Since then he has come a long way and now has a profitable public record of bets dating back to 2019.

His overall record now reads as follows…1092 bets, 139 points profit @ 12.7% ROI.

Looking at this in terms of bank growth, your bank would have grown a healthy 231% since 2019!

Impressive stuff seeing as all his bets are advised at Pinnacle.

In this detailed review of his service we explore what is on offer including:

  • Overall performance figures analysis

The Spanish football tipster with an 8 year profitable record betting at Pinnacle

Posted on by Peter Ling

Betting and being profitable at Pinnacle is perhaps the holy grail (or pinnacle) of sports betting for shrewd bettors who understand the complexities of betting with normal bookmakers.

Reason being is that Pinnacle does not follow the same business model of UK bookmakers and actually encourages winners to bet on their site meaning no limitations and the opportunity to bet large stakes.

Plus, as it’s one of the sharpest bookmakers around, it means you are clearly doing something right if you are able to make money there.

This is why the latest SBC Tipster Review of the Serpa Bets service is so fascinating as its a football tipping service that has made a profit to Pinnacle quoted odds for several years.

Sergio, the expert behind Serpa Bets is also regularly beating the closing line (i.e. odds at Kick Off) at Pinnacle which, if you know a bit about betting, is the goal you should be aiming for and will secure you profits in the long run.

What does this mean for followers of Serpa Bets?

Well it means 2 things…

  1. If you have access to Pinnacle, either as a non-UK resident or through a broker, you have a ready-made, profitable strategy to use with no limitations or restrictions to face at the bookmaker.
  2. If you do not have access to Pinnacle, you can often get these odds at other more ‘UK-friendly’ bookies/exchanges meaning you too can regularly beat the closing line.

This latest review looks into exactly how the service is essentially beating the ‘sharp’ bookmakers and illustrates how it is beating the closing line.

The numbers are there to prove it as well…since 2013 the service has shown a 5.03% ROI over 1996 bets. That’s a profitable record over 8 years of betting!

Plus, until the end of 2021, Serpa Bets’ tips will be free to SBC members.

More On Serpa Bets

Sergio Perez of Serpa Bets is a Spanish football betting expert, providing followers with betting advice from the Primera (La Liga) and Segunda leagues.

Over the years Sergio has built up an impressive body of work, initially via the tipping platform Blogabet (2014 to 2021) and since the start of 2020 as one of the SBC’s stable of free to follow tipsters. The focus lies on the Asian Handicap markets and the Over/Under goal lines, where Serpa Bets has achieved very solid long-term ROI figures.

So solid in fact the long term figures show a Return on Investment of 5.03% over 1996 bets. That‘s profits spanning 8 years which clearly indicates a long term edge.

It is fair to say that Serpa Bets has evolved over the years. Although today the service concentrates solely on the two main Spanish leagues, it initially mixed this with bets on international games, Champions’ League and Europa League matches too.

Gradually however, Serpa Bets became more and more Spanish-centric. In 2016 the two current leagues plus the Segunda B (third tier Spanish division) became the sole focus. The latter has been subsequently dropped due to an increasing lack of liquidity in the market which meant that it was difficult for followers to get anything like a meaningful bet on without crushing the odds.

Nowadays the service simply focuses on bets in the top 2 Spanish Leagues and a mix of Asian Handicap, 1X2 and Over/Under bets.

Detailed Review Analysis

In the SBC Serpa Bets Tipster Review we have extensively analysed the service and how it has made profits spanning 8 football seasons.

There are 3 main areas of analysis that I wanted to highlight to you in this email. There is of course a lot more analysis to be read in the Tipster Review.

Firstly, amongst the analysis we discovered some edges of note including how profits were broken down by bet type.

We see here that both Asian Handicap and 1X2 bets are the most profitable with over/under bets being the least profitable (but still in profit).

There’s also significance in the performance by bookmaker table which clearly demonstrates Sergio’s edge at ‘sharp’ bookmakers Pinnacle and SBOBET.

This table shows every bet at every bookmaker since 2013. In recent years Sergio has cut all but Pinnacle/SBObet from his selections and since 2020 he has just advised bets at Pinnacle.

Odds That Are Available

Then perhaps most importantly for non-Pinnacle bettors, the below two tables show the odds tracking analysis we performed which monitored the odds movements on bets advised.

The tracking was done over 116 random bets and looks at advised prices, the odds when the bet was received, 60 minutes later, and the closing line odds, i.e. those at kick off time.

It also incorporates 2 sets of bookmakers, the likes of Pinnacle and SBO Bet and then a more “UK-friendly” set of bookies (Bet365, BetVictor and the Exchanges)

What this shows is that while you can get better odds at Pinnacle, the ROI differences are minimal, suggesting that even if unable to bet with Pinnacle, you can benefit from Serpa Bets without taking too much of a hit to your ROI, especially if able to get on within an hour of bet release.

Crucially it indicates a clear edge over closing prices too.

The odds movement analysis was a small subset of the service’s bets but if we assume the pattern remains for the overall picture then we can also assume we will be profitable taking these bets at UK-friendly bookmakers.

So if betting at Bet365, BetVictor and the Exchanges you are still beating the closing line (great) and ROI differences are only minimal when comparing the odds movements against betting at the sharps.

As an example then, you could take these bets at Betfair Exchange, still be profitable and not face restrictions and staking limits that you would get from the usual UK bookie.

Which makes Serpa Bets a tipster that you should certainly consider adding to your betting portfolio!
