I’ve long been a fan of simple betting. As I explained during my intro to Hat Trick Hero, I like tipsters who provide straightforward solutions. And certainly, one way of simplifying life is to avoid betting on races with hurdles in them – as anyone who has ever watched the Grand National will tell you. Obstacles
Alex Hammond of Sky Sports offers a service which is extremely simple and, even better, completely free!I couldn’t help wondering whether her daily service represented a deceptively simple option… perhaps here was a winning tipster, hiding in plain sight.Welcome then to my trial of Alex Hammond’s Free Tips service!Alex Hammond has been a regular face
Max Racing Tips (now rebranded the Max Racing Partnership) is anything but dull. It may very well be a ‘selective’ service, as its advertising claims, but this doesn’t mean you should expect life with it to be peaceful. We began back in early September 2016 and, as luck would have it, immediately experienced a particularly tough run.

If there is one issue that unites all punters, it’s the thorny one of bookmakers closing their accounts.Yes, there are sensible steps you can take to try to protect them – but even then some bookies just seem to do irrational things, including closing accounts that have only just opened. Perhaps unsurprisingly therefore, the one thing I
It seems a long time ago since I started testing FRT Gold. I wrote my opening article back in July and was very enthusiastic about what I expected to see from this professional-looking service. Then — how often does this happen with a new system? — there followed an almighty anti-climax. Month #1 was poor and month #2 was
Hello again, David here with the conclusion of my trial of Banker Bets. It’s not been the easiest of trials, with my initial optimism gradually being eroded by a series of setbacks. The latest one was documented in my report on October’s performance, which saw me finish in the red to the tune of £70 after 261 bets.
Hope springs eternal here at Lay Back. It has to, if I’m to keep kicking off new trials! IWinSoccerBets is a case in point. I really got excited about this promising new service and wrote a breathless introductory piece explaining why. And sure enough, initial results appeared to reward my enthusiasm, with the first couple of
It has often struck me that most of the systems that we test here at Lay Back have been developed by one or two people as a maximum.Indeed, I’d go so far as to say there is something touchingly amateurish about the vast majority of betting systems providers.
