Why The First 6 Weeks Of The Season Matter – 23% ROI From 449 Bets


The new football season is nearly upon us.  The television companies are cranking up the hype, there are pull out guides galore, and football bettors the world over are full of hope and optimism as they prepare for the imminent battle against the bookmakers.

(Speaking of which, make sure you get SBC’s 6-part Essential Football Betting Compendium for the new season – the most concise guide to betting and winning in 2015/16)

Football Compendium Guide

Seasoned followers of The Fink Tank Football Service go a step further, for they are full of expectation too, especially given its form during the first 6 weeks of the season, which stands at 23% ROI from 449 bets over the last 7 seasons (But more about that soon!)

Yet betting during the first 6 games of the season is frowned upon by many gamblers as a rule – something I wanted to investigate further to find out exactly why…


Is the beginning of the season not a tricky time for football bettors?

There is no form to go on.  Teams are still wheeling and dealing in the transfer market.  Players are not all properly match fit.  You’re backing a team that has lost all their pre-season friendlies, etc. etc.

On the face of it, there are a lot of reasons why so many bettors believe it wise to wait a few weeks before putting on their betting boots.  Give it a few weeks for the form to settle down, for new players to settle in, for squads to be finalised before the transfer window closes.

But what if we consider that to create an edge in the betting markets we need to go against crowd thinking?  This is what the best gamblers do, and the best betting systems…and we believe our Fink Tank Systems are amongst the very best!

Fink Tank Service

 

The first 6 weeks – why the Fink Tank bucks the trend…

Back in our 2013/14 Season Fink Tank System Guide, we highlighted a potentially interesting area of strong performance – the fact that first few rounds of the season had generated particularly good profits.

At the time we said “profitability to date has been excellent (ROI 19.2),” but we suggested we needed “to see if the early season pattern holds up over a larger sample size as we gather more results this season and beyond”.

With two more seasons under our belt, we returned to this analysis in our 2015/16 Fink Tank Guide, and found that our theory that the first six weeks of the season are very profitable indeed was bang on!

Take a look at the following table.  It shows the results of backing each of our Win Value 15 Fink Tank System bets through the first six weeks of each season:

win_value_15_finktanksystem

As you can see from this table, in total there have been 449 bets that qualify, which have generated a profit of 103.4 points at an outstanding 23% Return On Investment!!!

Some seasons have been better than others but there is a clear pattern of strong performance over a pretty solid number of bets. Those of you skipping the first six weeks of the season with this system are clearly missing out!

Why does The Fink Tank do so well, when everyone else is running scared?

In these early games, the Fink Tank Systems have to rely more on data from the previous season, and it would appear that they do this to great effect.

One possible theory to support this finding relates to the early season hype we traditionally see both in the media and with supporters. Whilst longer-term evidence suggests most teams see only modest changes in their accumulated points and league position from one season to the next, perhaps the market over-reacts to the excitement of the summer signings and ongoing transfer talk during those opening weeks of a new season.

Certainly this would explain why the Fink Tank Systems are so powerful at this early stage of the season.  It’s like we said above, it’s the ability to go against the crowd that creates an edge.  From what we’ve seen, our Fink Tank Systems do this perfectly!

Beyond the first six weeks – how much money can I make through the season?

We feel it is essential to sign up to our exclusive Fink Tank Systems before the new season gets underway, so that you can take advantage of what has proven to be a particularly lucrative first six weeks of the season.

But what about the rest of what is a long season?  We’re sure you don’t want to make a load of profit at the beginning of the season, and then lose it all over the remainder!

Here is a table that shows how much money you would have made from following each of our fourFink Tank Systems through each season since 2008/09, if starting with a simple £2,000 bank:

Fink Tank All-Time Profit

114% Profits This Season

Our football system is based on the excellent free Fink Tank ratings and you can follow these yourself should you wish.

What Smart Betting Club members have exclusive access to is our short list of value bets, saving you the time and complication of working out the raw ratings.

Here’s a summary of all the different systems we track:

performance_summary_1415

  • P/L: Is the points profit to level stakes betting
  • ROI: Is the profits divided by the total amount staked (profit on turnover)
  • ROC: Is the Return on Capital which measures your return on your original starting bank. So £1,000 would now be worth £2115.00
Here’s how the season chart looks to date:

Free Football Profit For All SBC Members

The SBC Fink Tank system is hitting season high profits – Find out how you can gain access to the bets

A couple of weeks ago we wrote about the free systems and tips that Smart Betting Club members can access as a complimentary part of their membership. Our core mission is to help punters find the very best tipsters, but we offer these free systems as a nice bonus.

And what a bonus it’s been for anyone joining recently!

Our in-house racing tipsters landed two huge winners recently at 20/1 and 10/1, but it’s the free Football system that has been the icing on the cake.

58/1 Six Fold From The Free Fink Tank Football System

Our Football system is based on the excellent free Fink Tank ratings and you can follow these yourself should you wish.

What Smart Betting Club members have exclusive access to is our short list of value bets, saving you the time and complication of working out the raw ratings.

There are four different methods available to follow the ratings with, but the jewel in the crown so far this season has been the AH15 Value Method. This system only picks bets if there is at least 15% value in the available odds and uses Asian Handicap to reduce any volatility in betting returns.

Last weekend was an absolute cracker, with six out of six bets coming in. One member landed a 58/1 six fold backing all of them!

This puts the system on a season high of 26.6 points, or a profit of £890 to £33.33 level stakes per bet. Not too shabby for a freebie.

Here’s how the season chart looks to date:

WW_NM_200215

Summary of season results to date: 

WW_NM_200215_b

ROI = Profit divided by stakes

ROC = Return on initial capital

In celebration of recent results and to give you a flavour of how the system works, we’ve put a selection of the AH15 qualifiers for this weekend below.


Secret_betting_club_468x60


AH15 qualifiers for this weekend:

Here’s a list of half of the qualifiers for the AH15 strategy for Saturday February 21st:

WW_NM_200215_c

NB (You may need to ‘allow images’ to view this table)

So what does this all mean? Let’s take the first bet as an example…

Bet 1: Crystal Palace v Arsenal | Home (+0.5) | 2.15 Pinnacle

The home +0.5 handicap means you’re backing Crystal Palace and the draw. It’s exactly the same as a traditional Bookmaker Double Chance bet and effectively the same as laying Arsenal on the exchanges. If Pinnacle isn’t available to you, then you create your own +0.5 handicap from the home and draw odds. If Palace win – you win, but if there’s a draw you also profit.

Bet 4: Leyton Orient v Oldham | Home (-0.25) | 2.22 Pinnacle

The home -0.25 handicap means you’re backing the home team, but with half your money back if it’s a draw. It offers a little bit more security than a straight forward home win.

We also highlight the best odds and the next best bookie if these odds have gone. For UK focused punters, we supply a UK bookmaker only spreadsheet. ‘PIN’ stands for Pinnacle and ‘B365’ standing for Bet365.

If you’re new to Asian Handicap betting, fear not. Another valuable bonus of joining the Smart Betting Club is our comprehensive Pro Betting Guide, which covers all the basics you need to know such as Asian Handicap betting and other betting essentials.

Duplicate Tips: Better Or Worse?

If you follow more than 1 tipster or system, what should you do when you get duplicate tips… Should you stake normally, double up or ignore them?

It’s a common dilemma for anyone who has an active portfolio of betting tipsters or systems, especially those that tip in the same league.

If tipster A tips up Stoke to beat United, then tipster B does the same, is this a confirmation of value, or will you simply be doubling your risk by backing Stoke twice?

In our latest edition of the Smart Betting Club magazine, we published part two of our ‘Combo Tipster’ method which answered the duplication question with a resounding thumbs up. Not only are duplicate tips a positive signal, it can be extremely profitable to ONLY back duplicate tips.

Combo Betting Boost:

The Smart Betting Club tracks dozens of profitable sports tipsters, which means we’re in the unique position to test what happens when those tipster send out duplicate tips. To keep the test manageable we’ve focused on the four best football experts that we track.

Let’s taken an example from the weekend of the 10th of January. First here were your results if you backed each tipster individually, sometimes duplicating tips.

Combined records: 

•Bets: 26
•Profit: +2.8 points
•ROI: 11%

Pretty good, but what if we ONLY backed tips that were duplicated?

Betting on Combos ONLY:

•Bets: 11
•Profit: +3.69 points
•ROI: 34%

Not only does this dramatically reduce our work load, it also increases our profits. Of course this is just one weekend, but it backs up our complete analysis which goes back many seasons.

Part one of our tipster combo series showed you exactly which services to follow. The great news is that one of these sources is the completely FREE Fink Tank Football ratings. Even better news is that you can get these qualifiers highlighted as part of your Smart Betting Club membership.

This month we’ve gone one step further and shown you HOW to follow the tipster combo method…

join-now

So we know that focusing on duplicate tips can be an incredibly powerful strategy, but just how should we make use of this?

Should we…

•Ignore all ‘single’ bets?
•Bet double or even treble on duplicate tips?

Before we answer this, we need to know if multiple duplications will increase profits over a single duplication. Or put simply – is it better when three or more tipsters back the same bet instead of just one? Or do you get diminishing returns?

Combo Tipster Returns:

99cacf91-572a-442b-9ce4-88d396771e27

What this graph tells us is that when more tipsters back a bet, it’s even more likely to be profitable. In fact, the bulk of our combo tipster returns come from when three or more tipsters agree on something.

So great minds do indeed think alike, but what strategies can we used to follow these duplicates?

In this month’s article we share four possible methods as follows:

fd3a9bcb-ad97-4722-907b-2fef6fe50a34

So how do these strategies pan out?

92e9d4e9-2cfe-4ae6-8a04-f212994e714b

** Betting banks were calculated using our in-house “calculator”, based on large-scale simulations. Banks for system B and D are larger to accommodate the increased staking on multiple qualifiers. ROC is our measure of your profit in relation to your betting bank. 

Unsurprisingly, the strategies that increase your staking for multiplier combinations perform the best in ROI terms, but these will naturally reduce your number of bets and therefore your raw profit.

Are These The Best Value FA Cup Bets?

This Saturday sees the start of the 3rd round of the FA Cup and as always the chance for 1 or 2 surprise results at big odds to tempt punters.

So to help you find the best value ‘FA Cup Shocks’ we have run each of the 29 games featuring English League sides through our Fink Tank System. The goal as ever is to use this proven system to identify where the odds might be in your favour!

How We Did It

We simply ran the Fink Tank system against the average odds for each game, as taken from the Oddsportal.com website (If you don’t yet know how this system works you can download the free guide via this page).

Those bets with the highest percentage value are reckoned by the Fink Tank System to be the ones where the odds lie most in your favour.  This isn’t to say they are nailed on to win, but simply means over a long period of time, you will end up on top of the bookie.

The Best Value Bets (Those 30% And Above)

Starting off with the best value bets, these are as follows…

  • MK Dons to beat Wigan. At average odds of 4.54, the Fink Tank suggests this offers 82.5% value. MK Dons are currently available as big as 4.75 with Bet365
  • Blackburn to beat Man City. At average odds of 10.03, the Fink Tank suggests this offers 38.4% value. Blackburn are currently available as big as 12.0 with Totesport
  • Plymouth to beat Port Vale. At average odds of 3.89, the Fink Tank suggests this offers 35% value. Plymouth are currently available as big as 4.33 with Ladbrokes
  • Burton to beat Bournemouth. At average odds of 6.51, the Fink Tank suggests this offers 30.9% value. Burton are currently available as big as 7.44 with Pinnacle

The Next Best Value Bets (Those Between 15% and 30%)

Rounding things off, we also have a full list of all those bets with between 15% and 30% value according to the Fink Tank System…

  • Preston to beat Ipswich. At average odds of 4.32, the Fink Tank suggests this offers 22.7% value. Preston are currently available as big as 4.75 with Bet365
  • Derby to beat Chelsea. At average odds of 7.44, the Fink Tank suggests this offers 21.3% value. Derby are currently available as big as 8.5 with Bet365
  • Rochdale to beat Leeds. At average odds of 3.99, the Fink Tank suggests this offers 17.3% value. Rochdale are currently available as big as 4.20 with Ladbrokes.
  • Southend to beat Millwall. At average odds of 3.06, the Fink Tank suggests this offers 17.5% value. Southend are currently available as big as 3.20 with Totesport.
  • Burnley to beat Southampton. At average odds of 6.51, the Fink Tank suggests this offers 15.9% value. Burnley are currently available as big as 7.0 with Bet365

Some other notable value suggestions include the draw between Aston Villa and Sheffield Utd (19.2% value at 4.35) and Everton – QPR (17% at 4.68).

In Summary

All in all, the Fink Tank thinks there are 9 teams at value odds of 15% or higher with the potential for perhaps the biggest shocks featuring Blackburn and Derby.

The biggest value of all also lies in the game between cup-holders Wigan and MK Dons, with as much as 82.5% at the suggested average odds.

Good luck with all of your bets for the FA Cup this weekend whatever you bet on!

Please note – this article uses odds taken from Friday Evening on the 3rd January, so be sure to check http://www.oddsportal.com for the latest odds if having a bet.

So far this season, the Basic Fink Tank Football System has made a £2,427.50 profit at £25 stakes if following it in across the top 4 English Leagues (correct as of 1st December 2013)

This is despite the very strong bias we have seen of home football sides winning so far this season, and so we only expect the profits to improve further in coming months.

The Betfair Trading Scam & 15% Value Football System

First off this week I want to highlight a very concerning Betfair Trading Scam doing the rounds, which seems to have caught a few people out.

Those behind this scam have obtained the phone numbers for thousands of keen gamblers and are sending text messages offering a risk free trial of their Betfair Trading service. This might sound harmless enough until you realise there is no actual free trial – they simply want access to your personal details and any funds in your Betfair account.

One such example text message received is as follows:

BETFAIR TRADERS. Earn RISK FREE profit on your online account daily using our team of specialist traders. For more info on the FREE TRIAL text back (YOUR NAME)

Upon sending a reply back, you can expect to receive a call from this mysterious company, who will do everything in their power to convince you to give them a free trial.

Ultimately, all they want is access to your Betfair account for ‘trading’ purposes, but if doing so, not only will they clear your account of its funds, but they can also then access your bank details. Not good at all! Continue reading
