Football Bets Direct Review

Firstly sorry I have taken longer than I said before putting up my final thoughts about Football Bets Direct.

Let me tell you how this works.

You receive your emails with your bets for the different leagues, the leagues are all dealt with seperately and your bets are not mixed with say a bet in Italy and Spain.

Let me explain it more clearly;

This service is all about retreival staking or as some of you might know it as cover to win betting.

There are A B & C bets, your A bets are the first bet in your 3 bet sequence and of course if your first bet wins then your next bet is again an A bet as you have completed a winning sequence by having a winning bet.

If your A bet loses, then you have a B bet and you are looking to win your previous losses on your A bet plus the amount you want to win per winning bet, which during the trial was £25 per winning bet, again if your B bet wins you then start again with an A bet.

If your B bet loses you then are onto the C bets and you are looking to make your £25 plus the losses from your A & B bets.

You are betting in all of the major leagues in Europe, but you do not cross over from one league to another.

What I mean by this is that if you start off by having 3 bets in 3 different leagues then they will all be A bets as the leagues all have their own sequences.

So you need to get a winner within the 3 bet sequence in order to make a profit and if not you will take a rather large hit.

If you look on the Football Bets Direct website you will see that he shows strike rates for different leagues of 90% this means that 90% of the sequences were successful, but what you need to remember is that the one sequence that wasnt, more than likely wiped out your profit.

All of the selections are odds on, and while I dont have a problem with that what it does mean is that you need to have a high strike rate.

During the Football Bets Direct trial we had a total of 43 bets, all odds on, and only 17 of those won, a strike rate of 39% which is a very poor effort indeed.

A few examples of where some of the leagues are at the end of the trial;

English Prem 2 bets 0 wins next bet a C bet and a stake in the region of £150

English Championship 4 bets 0 wins already showing a loss of over £300

Germany 5 bets 1 win next bet a C bet and a stake of around £200

Holland 5 bets 0 wins next bet a C bet and a stake of around £150

Our Football Bets Direct starting bank of £1000 is down to £447.37

Its certainly not good reading and just proves that you shouldnt get involved in anything to do with retreival betting as you will get badly burnt.
