Armchair Punter app Review

Okay so I have now placed 100 bets with the armchair punter app.

The app has had it's ups and downs, I have been cheering for it all the way and the app has performed admirably, it was +ev right to the death when a series of 8 losses out of 10 in the last 10 bets of the sequence made it lose money.

This may be due to bad variance bad luck or the cappers may have made some mistakes.

I will be following it for another 100 bets but it lost 1.41% over the 100 bets I put on with the app.

I have to say that I missed some bets due to being asleep being at work etc but probably only 10 - 15 bets out of the last 115 or so.

Good app and nice try but I haven't struck gold yet.

Tennis Predictor, Baseball Predictor, Football Predictor, Basketball Predictor, Predictor software review.

These guys were trading under the name neuralbet, they now just call their software predictor with the relevant sport preceding it.

As per my post on neuralbet the software is rubbish.

You would do much better flipping a coin and going from there.

Please do not waste your money.

Today's Pick App Review

Last weekend it lost 9 won 0 this weekend won 3 lost 6.

I don't care how good it is in the long run this is poor capping by anybody's standards.

Don't waste your money.

Today's Pick App Review

Okay I have purchased the NCAA College Football app picks from them for $19.99.

They were doing okay.... until this weekend where they picked 9 and lost 9.

In my book this is bordering on unforgivable.

I will play out the 100 bets but believe me they will be getting the absolute minimum put on them. I've never lost 9 in a row in my whole betting career!

Armchair Punter app Review

Well as promised I intend to make 100 bets with each app to independently test them and then the results will speak for themselves.

The armchair punter app was performing well up to about a week ago and now it is -ev as well, losing over 3 units per 77 staked.

27 bets to break even come on!

Sport Lines app review

The app is probably very good, they claim a 33 - 15 winrate on their hotpicks section and each sport recieves the treatment of odds for each team and some form.

All very informative but not for me.

MMAbetpicks app review

Not working at the moment.

BetHelper App Review

The bethelper app provides the odd free tip combined with a tip set you must pay for each day. They want £6.99 for each day's tips.

The free tips weren't exactly amazing and I saw them change the result of at least 1 tip to make their figures look better! So their winrate can't be trusted.

Not for me!

Inside Saturday App Review

Does not work properly, no tips no info no good.

Drunk Tilt Alert!

So I got home pissed last night and thought I'd play some $30/60 limit. I was up over $200 then it went a bit wrong and I finished down a couple of hundred. I then decided to play £100 blackjack to try to win my money back, and promptly dropped another £300, then I decided to try to win that money back by putting £1000 on Jurgen Zoop in some tennis challenger.

I then went to bed!

Upon waking up this morning I was a tad concerned that I might be in a £1500 hole with 6 months of grinding in front of me to get my money back.

Luckily Zoop won so the £444 I won made up for my earlier losses so I'm okay.

Funny but a big lesson on drunken tilt. Don't do it!

This may help:

Read the above, use the websites above and you have half a chance!

Scommettamio Che Vinci App Review

Well this churned out the world's supply of tips, too many for my tastes, over 3 or 4 leagues.

Just looking at the odds that they were backing they were big teams at short prices, poor capping from the start.

They did get Liverpool's win over Brighton correct with their Expert tipping section which I liked but overall I can see that it won't be profitable just from their system.

Their expert only runs at 36% tips hit in the last 30 days(according to the app) so he can't be making money here backing favorites.

Good for a laugh but don't put your house on it.

Won't run it again.

Sports Predictor app review.

The app basically gives you a percentage chance of each team winning seemingly based on past performance.

Focuses mainly on Aussie sports IE Aussie Rules, NRL etc.

In my experience these percentage prediction sites can have some merit but in order to make money a deeper understanding of gambling is required. You can't just bet which way the app says you have to identify value and then this is fraught with danger.

Good for a laugh with your mates down the pub but won't be a moneymaker.

BPO Sport Corp App Review

No tips, no information, doesn't load, no good. Luckily they did not charge me!

MySports Picks App review

Well this one records your bets for future reference and cost £3.99, just for the US Football one never mind the rest.

No tips here.

On the plus side the software works well and is easy to manage but I'm sure that there are free apps out there which will do a similar thing.

So if you want to record your bets on your phone then here it is. Recommended but just for that purpose.

Bet2win soccer app review

I have placed 43 bets with this app. Their system seems to be to back the biggest teams in Eurpoe at the shortest odds. Not a great strategy if you want to make money.
Now we're not talking about ManU Chelsea either, in their recent contest manU were about 2.0 to win, no 1.28 on Real, 1.65 on Lazio/AC Milan/Inter all of which lost.
Poor handicapping, poor system, waste of money.
No way I track the next 60 or so bets to get to 100 I would be broke.

Bet2win soccer app review

I have now bet $4-$10 per match on 36 of their tips, I am currently -$40.2 with a level stakes profit of -$7.7.

Their tips basically revolve around backing the best teams in the leagues around europe at small odds. This is just a fools way to bet. Like madrid at 1.29 - lost Lazio at 1,63 lost etc etc.

They have a hockey and basketball app and if you want to bet on more sports you can take their bet2win personal betting adviser at £27.99.

Just don't waste your money.

So far my capping is better than most of the apps on the market. Steer clear.

Soccertips app review

This is a pay per tip service, not recommended the tips cost £7.99 each and therefore if the app produced a 10% return you would have to put at least £79.99 on each bet just to break even.

Not recommended to try out an app with no proven track record or tips to go on!

Hey look if you fancy spending that sort of money and test it then let me know but i certainly won't be spending £7.99 per tip, might as well cap the matches myself.

BetTips App Review

Okay so I have now placed 102 bets with the bet tips app. Price £12.99

They have lost me money, not at a rapid rate and their handicapping is far from poor.

I have to say that it is hard to professionally evaluate their app in full detail as each bet has a recommended stake generally between 10 and 100 units, dependent on their evaluation of the strength of the tip. One sad bet was recommended at 200 units which lost and this bet has basically cost me a profit with the app overall. If you bet level stakes then over the past 102 bets you would have lost money. In fact you would have lost 3.02 betting units over a 102 bet period.

Due to the 200 unit double cert bet they recommended this also lost money for the app.

I have to say that it may be profitable in the long run like over 1000 bets however I don't have the inclination to further test it as if it can't beat a 100 bet run then in all probability it is not profitable.

All I will say is that if you like to gamble for fun for small stakes this app is better than a random approach or betting on your local home team however the app should really make a profit over a 100 bet period in order to prove worthwhile.

I do believe that whilst the handicapping of the authors is sound they have little understanding of the concept of value. Ie if you back at odds of 1.44 then you need to win more than 2 out of 3 to be profitable. Some of these short priced bets, particularly on soccer are going to struggle in the long run. In my view the same goes for backing a baseball team at 1.56. The 1.56 line suggests that the team will win slightly more than 2 out of 3 times. The New York Yankees have a 300 - 188 win/loss record so as you can see they don't win 2 out of 3, not even close so how can these odds be right to back at?

My advice - Could be good for a bit of fun but if you want to make money forget it!

US Open

Currently on a 13-0 winning streak during US Open my betfair account was at nearly 0 1 week ago I now have over $1800, beautiful!

Still app testing, The BetTips app on iphone is currently running bad, my plan is to get to 100 bets and then try to give an objective view. So far after 85 bets betting 1 unit on level stakes we are -1.91. They also advised a double stakes bet which I was daft enough to trust them with this cost me $200 using their staking system. I cannot now see this being long term profitable. I'll let you know how it finishes after 100 bets.


The Armchair Punter app is currently running at +3.81 bets staking 1 unit on each tip after 19 bets. promising so far. Once again i'll write a full review after 100 bets.

I have also downloaded Platinum Picks, no tips have appeared yet but this is unsurprising as the US football season has not started yet.

BPO sport has yet to give me a tip after 1 week!

Soccertips has also yet to cough up a tip.

Sam Matterface's app is rubbish and only coughed up 1 tip in the week or so I had it and it was too late to bet on.

More to follow, I will be testing the apps available to see if they win money.

Gambling App Review / Sports Betting App Review

Watch this space folks.

I am currently testing the I- Phone apps for sports betting tips.

I can already say that the Bet Tips app is looking good.

I will bet the minimum amount on each tip I get from the apps over 100 bets and see how they perform. Not a fool proof method but certainly enough to see the potential.

Update


Update:

My son Eli is now 1!

And have another baby on the way.

Running up and down in the old gambling, the overall graph is up but it's certainly non linear!

Playing some tourneys and hit a nice $850 cash on Bodog the other day.

I must learn to:

1 Never back a player with an injury suspected or not.
2 Never test a system with more then the minimum bet
3 Never bet on anything other than tennis and possibly prepicks from baseball
