After six long years here at Lay Back, it’s time for me to step down … and welcome a new owner to the site. It’s pretty tough doing this even though I’ve enjoyed it immensely. However, all good things must end… and all that. Now, this may be the end of the road for me but […]
Football Accumulator Tips Review
Very broadly speaking, there are trials you love and trials you hate. And the second category can break your heart. Sometimes I find myself almost praying for a last-minute upturn, in spite of one setback after another – as I still believe that the service provider may be on to something. At the opposite extreme, there are, thankfully, occasional trials that […]
Free Bets from the BBC and the ‘SAM’ Computer – Trial Conclusion!
Last October, I finally kicked off a trial of an idea I’d been toying with for ages. In short, I was wondering whether the BBC’s weekly football predictions could make me some serious money. Now, before you throw up your hands in horror, let me point out that I was not considering following Mark Lawrenson’s […]
New Trial – Tennis Genie!
It is a constant source of frustration to me that I have never found a tennis tipster service that I am happy with. However, with spring now upon us (though you wouldn’t really believe it if you could see the rain pouring down outside my window!), and Wimbledon around the corner, I couldn’t help having […]
Racing Expert – Months #5 & #6 – Yes But…
With the exception of matched betting service reviews, it’s rare for any trial to go completely smoothly. And my long-term test of Racing Expert has been a case in point. The first month was wonderful, the second one definitely wasn’t, the third was positive again and the fourth was basically flat. Still, the good news was that, overall, […]
Any Other Win – First Impressions
I’ve tended to focus on straight betting systems recently, as opposed to learning new trading methods. I can see the appeal of the latter but, in spite of my best intentions, I lack the time to do them justice. Testing a dozen or so services simultaneously does that to you. However, I did make an […]
Oddschecker Bet Monitor – 3 Months In – Interesting!
If you’re not getting results with your betting, it’s always tempting to try something a bit different. And as we recently seemed to have been testing a whole series of mediocre products here at Lay Back, I decided, back in February, that it was time to test out a little idea that had been suggested […]
New Trial – Odds4Stats!
There are times, and not that infrequently, when every punter wonders why they bother with tipsters. Their appeal is obvious. If they are as good as they claim to be, they could save you a hell of a lot of time – and potentially make you a lot of hassle-free money. Sadly, it doesn’t seem […]
Flat Racing Master Review
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 – Trial Conclusion
It’s barely been three months since I started testing Alex Hammond’s free tipster service on Sky Sports. Alex provides a single daily horse racing selection to anyone who’s interested. It doesn’t cost a bean and you don’t even have to provide an email address to get it. Instead, you just drop into Sky’s site sometime in […]
