It's party time!
publication date: Mar 7, 2008
Hi
It's party time! Not because of Cheltenham you understand, but because it's my birthday week. Like most birthdays in recent history, I have a simple plan and that is to decamp into the living room, switch on the racing channel, have the swear jar close at hand, and enjoy a superb 4 day spectacle of jumps racing. This birthday I'll be christening as my "Just for Men" birthday as my temples are becoming a little Lineker-esque in their appearance and I've begun taking a second glance at the Just for Men shelf at my local Tescos. So look out for the Betfair Specials - will I go Lineker and let the grey come, or will I go all Philip Schofield and die my hair black kidding myself that I'm still young? Place your bets now! With Cheltenham in mind I did go to a local hostelry and listen to some "experts" and their opinions. I must say it was nice to meet Jim Culloty, Best Mate's Best Mate in what was an interesting evening out. These events are taking part all over Ireland at present and are extremely popular. The problem is everyone has an opinion, and they're all different, so apart from partaking in some local brew, I really ended the night more confused than when I started! No doubt the population of Ireland will dwindle next week as half of them will be invading Cheltenham with Euros at hand to cheer on their own and battle the bookies. Mathematician Betting have allowed me to reproduce their Cheltenham specials on my website at http://www.whatreallywinsmoney do take a look in the ARTICLES section. With such a busy list I have built up a number of new contributors to the site, and have been unable to upload them until I got their permission which I now have. A couple of readers have now begun their systems. Did you follow Brian CC's Lay system? His free trial has ended with the £1,000 nominal bank standing at near £1,500 form laying and a super staking plan. He's a reader who's profiting so if you want a piece of what he has to offer, get in touch and I'll forward your emails to him. This has not been isolated profit making - he was doing the same pre Christmas and no doubt can replicate that into the future. A great lay service in store from a reader and exclusive to you. JaysLays is the last survivor of the 3 readers who began proofing on the website and his poor start has had a spectacular turn around and looks set to continue - again in the Systems Blueprints section of the website he looks worth following Jay's site is www.horseracinglay.co.uk and I hope this turn around can signal the beginning of an upward curve profit wise. Another reader's system - check it out on the website and if you like what you see, contact Jay at his site. Another reader has been most impressive. Paul Waddington's service at http://www.betting4profits.co performing of late and I think you'll like the price! His results are proofed at http://www.sports- tipsters.co.uk/betting4profits inspection. Well worth paying a visit. SPECIAL ENDORSEMENT I told you Don't Tell The Professionals - the financial trading programme - was good, but just take a look at this email from a VERY happy student: "I have been meaning to write to you for some time now, as a student who purchased your DTTP course towards the end of June last year. I carried out very limited trading to start with (lack of funds) but decided to take it more seriously in August and deposited £1,000 in my trading account. I had to augment this with a couple of temporary £1,000 loans until, before the end of 2007, all my deposits were withdrawn and I was trading with my profits. As of today my account stands at approximately £65,000 and I would like to thank you very much for the help your system has given me." And yes, the figures are real! Full details here: http://www.on2url.com/app JOSHUA JACOBS BETFAIR PROFITS FORMULA The marketing for this new product has taken on a whole new life of itself - the usual affiliate suspects are peddling it, along with some newbies. It really is hard sell, but Don't Believe The Hype. There's nothing new as regards Betfair and making profits from the betting exchanges. I wager that I've given you ample information myself that will be "exclusively" covered in Josh Jacob's "Modules" If you want to take a free peak at his writing, visit www.laytheodds.com and click on his name under featured writers. You will probably find some of his strategies there. For those that have succumbed to the saturation marketing, let me know what you think because I am loathe to part with $197 to be told the bleeding obvious (from my perspective as a seasoned campaigner!). I have read the Module titles and they all seem to be rather obvious strategies and hardly exclusive to Mr Jacobs. One reader did succumb to the package and here's his knee jerk reaction. He has allowed me to reproduce his thoughts: "Hi Clive: Just thought I'd save you some research. I just bought the 'latest best thing', the Betting Profits Formula and promptly returned it. Not only are most of the 'systems' copied from other sources (one of which I paid £1.99 for on e-bay) but the whole book is full of inaccuracies (or stupidities). One section (sorry, Module) is written by a Mr X (gives it an air of intrigue don't you think?) who's idea is to back every horse in a race when the book is OVER 100% (I kid you not). His other gem is to put in lay offers at prices higher than currently available. I'd love to meet this guy, I've got a bridge I could sell him (only one careful owner). This really is the worst thing I have seen for a long time (and I've seen a few). I expect to see young Joshua in the courts soon defending actions for copyright infringements. Just thought I'd give you a heads up to repay the good work you do". That was a quick refund! Judging by the company old Josh keeps (the old Brookes affiliate crew) I am not surprised at the reader's reactions. I have asked for a copy of the Betting Profits Formula from the author himself and hope to look over it myself. STAKING AND MONEY MANAGEMENT It's been a very interesting week for me as I've tried to get rid of a lot of gubbins on my PC ,because it's slower than Teddy Sheringham at times and in the process I've come across some oldies but goodies staking wise. I have an excel spreadsheet staking plan for selections staked on with 1 point, 2 points or 3 points based on confidence. For those who want to take a look and play around with it let me know. Perhaps this is something that could greatly benefit a mechanical system such as the 3 into 1? Some races thrown up include hunter chases, heavy ground hurdles, some of the horses are multiple winners who seem to have done their winning. Perhaps allocating these weaker bets just 1 point could alleviate the impact on the betting bank of losing bets? I have also found spreadsheets for the famous Maria staking plan for laying - a real laying investment plan which I can forward to you on request (or try to download onto the website). With the idea of staking plans (I'm stretching this link a tad) I have been working on your behalf dear reader on Betfair exchange games. Well, as I write, using just £10 (and being very bored I'll admit), I've taken away £75 (banked!) in about 4 hours. The system revolves around dutching hands on Texas Hold Em and includes an element of trading. I work with a straight £10 only and always bank when I make £5 profit - amazing how it grows! As I've said in the past, the multiple involvement of 2 or 3 hands looks to be a prerequisite to success. I daren't use more than £10 - that stake is comforting for me and no great loss - I'm just playing until I lose the tenner and pocketing any profit above £5 - works a treat thus far. I will reveal the system for you for the next newsletter. It's deceptively simple and I will christen it the Operation X Project Y Ultra Betfair Cracking Code Storm Impact System - has a nice ring to it! The possibility to make £10-£20 per hour is realistic but I am aware that I could be out of the game in my first hand, such is the surprise element that can creep into Betfair exchange games. My stint on day 1 has ended with a blowout but a £65 net gain nicely banked! I'm going to try this system each day with just a tenner and see how much I can make out of it - should be an interesting exercise over a week. Those of you regularly reading the blog will have noticed how I have tried to make some break even bets on the horses - I find this can be a good way to have low downside and high potential returns with relatively little risk. Again, blog-wise, the football bets have been the real money earners in the week before Cheltenham and all I really do is use techniques talked about in the newsletter. IT looks like, this week, Liverpool are transforming into betting propositions once more after I have become a millionaire filling many swear jars following them recently. Ones to watch out for if this reliability can stick! 3 INTO 1 Sod's Law has decided to take time off! Just ended the week with 3 winners at 4/7, 9/4 and 7/4 - hopefully this is a turn around to the results I am more used to with the system. Hope the flat season can bring more winners after a poor start. It will be interesting to put recent results through the staking plans and see how they have fared. I will certainly update for next month's newsletter. I'll end today's eletter with extracts from a recent BBC article entitled "Losing cash is a dead cert in tipster scam" by Kevin Peachey. " The office of Fair Trading (OFT) says that £1M is being lost to current bogus tipster mailings in the UK" (Sound familiar - the old glossy brochure brigade! It continues: " Each scam - which lasts for around to 5 weeks - nets the con-artist behind it around £100,000 , and an increasing number of affluent horse racing lovers are being caught out". The article quotes the experiences on one man, and this is typical of some emails I have been receiving where people are still falling for these brochures. The man in question paid £3,000 for a series of tips, but over the next couple of months, only one of nice tips won, and at 8/13! He tried to enforce the money back guarantee only was unable to reach the tipster. The man above also receives a whole raft of other offers including requests to place bets on somebody else's behalf or offers to become part of a horse owning syndicate, which proves to be completely false (a couple of readers fell for John McCracken's scam). Interestingly "in one case, a con-artist claimed to have 30 years of experience in the sport, despite being aged just 29" and no he was not Marty McFly and didn't own a Delorean! The OFT quote a figure of 3.2 million people falling for scams every year. Surely this is a lesson in this unregulated industry to be extra vigilant isn't it! A timely reminder regarding these glossy brochure boys - there's a whole rogues gallery of names - I'm sure, or at least I hope, you will reacquaint yourself with the article I did on the tell tale signs to look for in these brochures. I will do my part in trying to find reputable real world people who offer a genuine service and have a track record and a proper address! After all this talk of scams, I need to cheer myself up now, so I'll have a prolonged look at my Kelly Brook 2008 calendar and dream of JP McManus sized win at Cheltenham next month. Have a great weekend Clive |
