Customer Reviews

History of Betting, no betting systems...
I'm going to be honest, I bought this book because of the positive reviews it had. However, after going through all the pages I never found any betting system as it is stated. So what did I find in it? Well a great history of the betting scene mainly in the UK by one insider (author used to work in William Hill). If you are interested in the history of betting then it is a great book, with great stories and anecdotes. However, if you are looking for a betting system, it's better for you to try a different book as the best advise this book can give you is that pretty much always the house wins!

Very profitable
I was a bit worried at first investing in a book that would tell me how to make money. As they say 'those who know don't talk and those who talk don't know'. However, what a nice suprise to be given a system that actually works. I recouped my money very swiftly, in the first week actually. I aim to become the 'Professional Gambler' that I dreamed about within the next three months!

Excellent, I've made a fortune from reading this!!! BUY IT.
The best football betting book I've ever read. The system mentioned here is a money spinner. I've made a good amount of money from using this book. A very good investment.
