DG Tips Review

Lay Back & Get Rich betting system review

I have now almost reached the 200 bet mark in my DG Tips review after a little over two months and after a phenomenal set of results I’m ready to wrap this trial up.

I’ve bet on a further 92 tips since my last update and added £227.55 to the bank, which gives me a total profit of £436.45 to £10 stakes.

What is quite remarkable and a rarity to see with services that send out their tips the night before the racing is the performance at Betfair SP has also been good, producing a total profit of £313.59.

The ROI is impressive at 22.2% at the prices taken and 15.9% at BSP, with the former not too far off the long term reported ROI of 25.9% reported on the website.

As you can see in my results for update two, it was a great month all round with the Betfair SP results giving the best performance of the three.

Summary

You just have to take one glance at this profit graph to understand why it’s a clear pass for this service. When you’re betting on horses with odds that are often in the double figures range, this is the kind of graph that dreams are made of.

DG Tips review

The majority of tips I received were each-way bets, which did help to keep the losing streaks at bay although I did experience a run of 12 during the first month. Other than that it has been a fairly smooth ride.

DG Tips seems to have stood the test of time, thanks to a professional approach, scrupulous research and consistent profits.

Now who’s for a cuppa?

(That was a ‘PG Tips’ joke, by the way)

Update: 30th October 2017

I was aiming to post an update to the DG Tips review at around the 100 bet mark and the timing has worked out perfectly as there have been 105 bets over the course of the month since I began my trial.

Lucy was having a tough time during her trial, experiencing poor results and being unable to match the advised prices, but it seems things are looking up and I’ve been pleasantly surprised so far.

Over the past month I have made a profit of £208.90 and achieved an ROI of 19.9% from 105 bets and that was only £8.70 less than I would have made at the advised prices.

A 21% growth to my bank in one month? I’ll take that!

The full set of results so far are available to view here.

Summary

It’s a little too early to crack open the bottle of prosecco yet, but I’m certainly happy with the way things are going so far with DG Tips.

I have to agree with Lucy, the detailed summaries that come with each of the tips really give you a sense that the tipster has done his research and knows what he is talking about.

I’ll be back with an update in around a month’s time or when we have reached 200-250 bets. Let’s hope for more of the same!

Lucy’s Original Introduction: 31st January 2017

You know what it’s like when you keep putting something off.

When you do finally get round to whatever it is you’ve been procrastinating about, you wonder why you didn’t just get on with it ages ago.

Well, that’s pretty much how I’m feeling today about DG Tips from Tipsters Empire.

Because they’ve written to me over and over again and, to my shame, I’ve just sort of ignored them.

Well, I’ve been busy!

Until now, that is. And, now that I look at it, I’m wondering why I didn’t do something about this months ago.

Because DG Tips looks, potentially, a very appealing service.

So welcome, at last, to my long overdue trial of DG Tips…. 🙂

DG Tips
DG Tips (NOT a brand of tea)

Sorry, I just couldn’t resist the picture. 🙂

OK to more serious matters…!

DG Tips is the flagship service from Tipsters Empire.

It focusses exclusively on horse racing and aims to land high-priced winners on a regular basis.

The sales page even claims confidently that the tipster’s “ability is something you have to see to believe”, adding that he may well be “the best in the business”.

Well, let’s hope so.

One thing that is clear already is that, if all goes well, this could be a service that works for 9-to-5’ers as tips are generally issued by 7pm the evening before the day’s racing.

Selections emails are impressively detailed, which is something I always find encouraging.

As I type, I’ve just received my first tip, for tomorrow, 1st February and it contains a discussion of how the draw may affect the outcome and why the tipster hasn’t gone for the favourite but a relative outsider at odds of 8-1.

It’s impressive stuff.

I also understand that DG Tips is an all-weather & flat specialist.

Again, this makes sense if our man is taking an analytical approach as, by removing both fences and variability in the going from his assessment of a race, he can reduce the likelihood of chance affecting the outcome.

Well, that’s the theory anyway!

Summary

I’m going to aim for my usual 200 bets and track performance at both bookies and Betfair.

I will also record outcomes at the odds advised by the tipster, to get a sense of how price-sensitive the service is.

I’ll be back around the end of February with my first progress report.

In the meantime, if you’d like to find out more about DG Tips, you can do so here.

Update: 8th March 2017

All jobs have their ups and downs, I guess.

And even testing betting systems – if you can call this a ‘job’! – can get tiresome, especially, of course, when you’re losing.

As a result, over the almost-six years of running this site, I’ve become a lot more picky about the trials I decide to take on.

Yet there is some good news.

And that is that, every time I feel my enthusiasm flagging, there comes along a service that makes me look at sports betting in a positive new way. And one such, on the face of it at least, was DG Tips.

This promising product is clearly Tipsters Empire’s jewel in the crown.

You could just tell by the way they talked about it when they first got in touch.

So, one month into my new trial, has DG Tips lived up to the supplier’s breathless claims?

DG Tips
DG Tips (NOT a brand of tea)

Yes, it’s made an outstanding start.

By last night, I’d put on 68 bets and achieved an ROI of over 25%.

Even at Betfair Starting Price (BSP), after allowing 5% for winner’s commission, my ROI was 17%.

Seriously, who wouldn’t be impressed by performance statistics like these?

Summary

DG Tips is a real throwback of a service.

For instance, it doesn’t just issue tips, it gives you fully detailed explanations of the thinking behind them.

This, for instance, was the logic around the selection of Cohesion, Monday’s each-way winner at Wolverhampton:

DG Tips - Selection of Cohesion at Wolverhampton
DG Tips – Selection of Cohesion at Wolverhampton

Clearly, this is a tipster who does his homework.

And so far, it’s paying dividends.

Of course, we’re only a third of the way through our 200 bet trial but I am unaware of any other service delivering 17% ROIs at Betfair SP.

But can it keep it up?

I’ll be back in April with the latest news.

Meanwhile you can always find out more about DG Tips over here.

Update: 8th April 2017

It’s so hard to find tipsters to recommend.

I know all the stuff about taking a long-term view and letting the data speak — dear God, do I know it — but I’m only human.

Like everyone else, I’m swept along by a glorious winning run.

And, like everyone else, I’m gutted when what looks a sure-fire winner falls apart.

With all these thoughts in mind, therefore, we come to my month #2 report on DG Tips.

What a wonderful first trial month it was… ah, they were the days.

But, as I suspect you can guess by now, things didn’t turn out quite so well in month #2.

And that’s putting it mildly…

DG Tips
DG Tips (NOT a brand of tea)

It’s been a really poor month.

Oh, the anti-climax.

Just look at these figures for month #2 of my trial:

Really, it’s impossible to think of anything positive to say about those numbers.

Adding them to my month #1 summary produces the following running totals for the trial as a whole:

Summary

You know it’s been a tough month when the tipster sends you one of those pained emails explaining that he needs to take a break.

Cheltenham was a deeply sobering experience for the DG Tips tipster – and, indeed, for anyone following his service.

We will see whether the lessons that, allegedly, have been learned make any difference to performance in future.

I’ll be back in mid-May with more.

In the meantime, you can read more about DG Tips over here.

Update: 9th May 2017

You can get a sense of how our trials are going here at Lay Back just from the titles of my articles.

Take DG Tips, for instance.

My first monthly progress report was entitled, “DG Tips – Month #1 – Wow!“.

No prizes for guessing that that one told a very upbeat story.

Sadly, the following update carried a very different title: “DG Tips – Month #2 – Ouch!

As you might expect, this one told a story of squandered winnings and drifting into debt. 🙁

Inevitably, therefore, I entered month #3 with some trepidation.

Would I experience another great winning run, as at the start?

Or should I expect further doom and gloom?

DG Tips
DG Tips (NOT a brand of tea)

Fortunately, it’s been a much better month but we remain in the red for the trial as a whole.

It’s frustrating really because, on their own, the month #3 performance figures are satisfactory:

DG Tips – Month 3 Advised Prices Price taken Betfair SP
Profit £ 207.24 £ 50.97 £ 101.07
       
New Bank £ 651.69 £ 260.81 £ 251.20
       
%age bank Growth 46.63% 24.29% 67.32%
Wins(races w/ profit) 37 34 33
Bets 96 96 96
Strike rate(races w/ profit) 38.54% 35.42% 34.38%
ROI 21.48% 5.28% 10.47%

Unfortunately, when you add these numbers to the brought forward figures for months #1 and #2, the overall story remains grim.

We kicked off the trial with three betting banks of £500 each and tracked performance at:

  • prices advised by the tipster
  • odds obtained in the live marketplace
  • Betfair SP, allowing 5% for winner’s commission.

And this is where we’ve got to after just over 250 bets:

DG Tips – Whole Trial Advised Prices Price taken Betfair SP
Profit £ 151.69 (£ 239.20) (£ 248.80)
       
New Bank £ 651.69 £ 260.81 £ 251.20

Strike rate(races w/ profit) 33.07% 29.92% 28.35%
ROI 5.88% -9.27% -9.64%

The results log for month #3 tell a mixed story that was saved by a great run near the end.

Five winners from six bets on 2nd May lifted a difficult month firmly into the black and supplied some much-needed cheer.

Summary

Month #2 really was poor so it was a relief to get back on track this time: even if it did involve waiting until the end of the period for one truly magical day.

Still, we are in no position to celebrate with two of our three betting banks remaining in the red.

I had expected more from this service so I’m going to extend the trial to 400 bets. Hopefully, that will be long enough for it to show its true capabilities.

I’ll be back when I get to my revised finishing line. Wish me luck!

Meanwhile, you can find out more about DG Tips over here.

  1. Update.

    35 days in and a poor Saturday leaves me one and a half points down overall. February’s about five points up after the very poor January.

  2. I judge by what I see. If his results pick up before my trial finishes, I might consider taking a further sub out. If not, I won’t.

  3. Eleven days in and £60 down, largely to £5 stakes (£2.50 ew). To say I’m not impressed would be an understatement. Close to 10 points down in the last three days.

    1. Christ your negative, you joined at the wrong time, that’s just unfortunate, the blokes been flying for some time now, but reading your comments based on a few days you’d think he was the worst conman going. Come back in 3 months with an opinion of the bigger picture.

  4. Day 2 of the £1 trial and two win selections. The first lost and the second won at evens, but, for some reason, Betfair didn’t take my BSP bet on the second race, so another losing day. What I have noticed is that the prices have dropped overnight, which opens the possibility of trading them.

  5. Like any tipster, the problem is when you join.
    You may start off with winning tips and think this is great, perhaps increasing stakes, or you may join on a long losing sequence.
    I have experienced DG tips in the past, he has good times and bad times.
    Unfortunately I didn’t have the long term philosophy to withstand long losing runs.

  6. Day one of this and not impressed. Six selections and only one placed. Hopefully this is a one-off and not the norm, but I hate starting with a losing day, then you’re playing catch-up straight away

  7. (When I went back to UK recently, the only thing I brought back to Sydney after was a large box of PG Tips, which I am loving my way through now! Grin!)

    When you quote the results to “Betfair SP” – is that including win and place for those that were advised Each Way, or is it the win only results?

    Thanks,
    Stephen
