Slam Dunk Wizard Review

basketball on grass

Slam Dunk Wizard has added £150.10 profit to the pot in the fourth month of my trial, but there is still an issue with the tipster's recent performance.

I am happy to see that he recovered quickly from the loss last month and it made it worth extending the trial for an extra month. Overall my bank has increased by 25.6% in the past four months.

The problem is, looking at the results on the Betting Gods site, the tipster is only showing £25 profit for the past six months. It might be slightly more than that, as I have been beating the advised prices quite a lot, but it's still poor.

The first six months of the tipster's results history, which was likely when they were being proofed before launching, is quite the contrast compared to this last six months.

Summary

I have decided on a Neutral rating for this tipster, as results haven't been as good as expected. Another set of results like month three could see me back to square one with zero profit.

The other issue is that the bets are mostly in lesser known basketball leagues and getting a decent stake on at bookmakers could be difficult. It could get sent for a trader's decision which would have your account flagged up.

I checked Betfair Exchange for some of the bets and if the market was on there, it was usually very low liquidity, so again the same problem.

The tipster was clearly on to something with his impressive results when joining the Betting Gods, but profit seems to be slowing down now and I can't see them being around long-term if it doesn't change.


Update Three: 10th December 2022

It has been going so well for Slam Dunk Wizard but there was a poor set of results in the third month of my trial, taking away a big chunk of my accumulated profit.

Who can say what went wrong. Perhaps it was just a spell of bad luck or maybe it was bad judgement by the tipster, but it is hard to say as there isn't any information given with the tips.

The emails just contain the bets that I need to place with no analysis or feedback from the tipster.

Summary

I have decided to extend my trial of this service as it could just be one of those bad months that happen every now and then. It would be good to see if he can recover quickly from it.

I'll be back next month with my results.


Update Two: 7th November 2022

The basketball season is in full swing now so there has been a big jump in the amount of bets for the service this month, not to mention the amount of profit!

Slam Dunk Wizard produced £178.00 profit at the available prices, or 17.8 pts, with a 9.13% return on investment.

Even after facing some losing streaks, the service was still able to finish with a good result for the month.

Summary

Now that there is plenty of basketball to get their teeth in, we hope to see the tipster continue to build on this profit and give me more good news to report next month.


Update One: 7th October 2022

It's been a steady start in the first month of my Slam Dunk Wizard trial with £57.30 profit at the available prices and a 7.64% increase to my £750 bank.

Prices have been available at a combination of UK and Euro bookmakers and some of the more popular fixtures are on Betfair too.

I have to say though, some of these matches seem quite obscure!

For example, I've had bets for the Women's Icelandic Premier League, Venezuela Superliga and various friendlies. I'm not sure what sort of stakes you would be able to get on these games if you are a high stakes punter.

Summary

A decent start from this basketball tipster and hopefully there will be more profit to come during the rest of my trial.


Introduction: 3rd September 2022

As long as there is a betting market available for it, I am happy to trial almost any sports tipping service here at Lay, Back & Get Rich.

Introducing Slam Dunk Wizard, Betting God's resident basketball tipster who has been proofing since April 2021.

The service is run by Leon and he appears to be very knowledgeable on a range of different basketball leagues around the world.

He doesn't tend to bet on favourites, preferring to focus on finding bets at value prices to bring in higher levels of profit.

Since he joined Betting Gods he has achieved £1,750.90 profit with a 10.1% ROI. That is an average monthly profit of £97.27 with £10 stakes.

Here's a breakdown of the statistics for the service to date:

  • 40.51% Win Rate
  • 10.08% ROI
  • 233.45% Bank Growth
  • 2.73 Average Odds
  • 76.5% Profitable Months

This is all looking great but there is one caveat. If you are living in the UK, it looks like it will be difficult to achieve these sorts of results.

I took a look at some of the tips from the past week and the prices had been advised from the likes of Pinnacle and Marathon, which UK customers are sadly no longer allowed to bet at.

In the past I have mostly disregarded services that UK customers would struggle to use. The thing is, there are tons of you out there from other countries that CAN use services like this, so I'm going to go ahead with the trial.

I will record odds as the best I can find available on comparison sites that include both UK and non-UK bookmakers.

My first update will be in October, where I will hopefully be reporting a profit!
