Football Betting Master

A short review of FBM - first 2 weeks results below - Selections are sent on a Friday -If you have any experience of this please add to this review thread.

Football Betting Master is based on backing over and under 2.5 goals with reported profits being based on a 50pts stake for each bet. Subscription brings you a PDF which outlines the method of using 'risk free betting' to build up an initial bank for the bets. The PDF then details a 4-step filter to use to make your own selections. The service also offers a monthly subcription which researches and picks out 3 selections a week with the possibility of some bonus selections which have reportedly done just as well.

To have a 'System that Makes up to £25,622.25 a Year' based on the U/O market will need to be using very large stakes and the lower odds will require a high strike rate - so the selections will have to avoid strings of losers in order to make an average of over £2000 a month. Let's see if our 2 month trial can get any where near this average!

Bank

A minimum 1000pt bank is suggested and as little as £50 is enough to get started - the PDF shows valuations of one point from 5p (£50 bank) to £10 (£10,000 bank). It would seem the average profit above is based on the £10 a point mark or £500 per selection which would need £1500 a week. Even with using any winnings from the bookie bonus offers this level of investment would take some time to attain.

For this trial I will use a £1000 bank as this is an achievable amount from using the bonus offers - this equates to £1 a point and a £150 investment each week at the most. I will do the same for any bonus selections but keep them separate.

Staking Plan

Odds Above 2.0 = 25pts Odds Of 1.5 - 2.0 = 50pts Odds Below 1.5 = 100pts

I reviewed this service back in mid 2010. Made a small loss over a 3 month period but mainly just floated around breakeven for most of it. Had a strike rate around the 60% mark and average odds of only about 1.70.

Bit surprised they're still going given the lack of profits likely to be made.

maybe they've improved, time will tell.

Good luck with your trial

A bad weekend for this 'service' - it will take a while to recover! Once again the real world does not match the sales hype. Why do people bother with such stuff? Might as well do a little bit of research yourself and then at least you can do just as well for free with only yourself to blame!
