Betfair 10 Review – A New System That Deserves Attention
By Chris • Jun 29th, 2009 • Category: Betting System Reviews, Featured, Gambling Products For Sale On ClickbankThere’s a new betting system that has just been released called Betfair 10.
Click here to go to the sales page (it will open in a new window).
This system is being sold using the same format that you’ve seen a hundred times before on other sales pages. The author states that this is a secret system that will soon have you raking in money daily from Betfair.
I’ve now dipped into my piggy bank and bought a copy of Betfair 10 so that I can give you – my blog visitors – one of the very first honest, in-depth reviews of exactly what is in Betfair 10.
Betfair 10 is supplied as a standard 38-page pdf file. It is reasonably well written by an unnamed author. The company behind “The Betfair 10 Team” is South African based.
The sales page is very vague about exactly what Betfair 10 is – but I can reveal that it is a horse-race laying system.
The system uses the ever-popular Racing Post website for its data and the “10″ in the system name refers to the 10 rules that you need to follow to make a lay selection.
The rules are sensible and – in most cases – logical; and owners of my own Logical Lay System will have a sense of deja vue regarding some of the selection criteria!
However, I must make it clear that my Logical Lay System will in the vast majority of cases pick completely different selections to those produced by Betfair 10.
One particular horse-race is used as an example for how the 10 rules are applied. There are enough screenshots to make the selection process very clear and no-one should have any problems.
Selections can be made from the evening before racing (useful for those of you with bots) – although there is one rule concerning the going which could affect selections if there was a change in the going on race day (which does happen fairly often).
Lays are only placed upto Betfair odds of 6.0 so there are no huge liabilities involved in following the system.
There are also Betfair screenshots to show that the selection made in the example did duly go on and lose its race. But that is all of the proof that you get that the system works over the long term.
This is the most disappointing aspect about Betfair 10. With my Logical Lay System, I have taken the trouble to proof the daily lay selections produced by my system with Racing-Index. This has shown – without any shadow of doubt – that the system has been profitable every month since proofing started in late-March.
There is no reason why the author(s) of Betfair 10 could not have taken the time and trouble to similarly proof their selections. Could they have something to hide?
Personally, I believe that the Betfair 10 rules are a rational technique for lay selection. indeed, Betfair 10 could be a very good complemetary system to my own Logical Lay System.
But what about the long-term success of Betfair 10?
I am going to try and provide a couple of lay selections every day on this blog produced by the Betfair 10 system. That way, we can all keep track of how well it performs.
If you decide to buy a copy of Betfair 10 using my affiliate link, then I will give you a FREE bonus of a 1-month subscription to my very successful lay service Losing Lays (worth £27). This service uses the Logical Lay System selections and is proving to be highly profitable.
Just as soon as you complete your purchase for Betfair 10, you will automatically receive an email with details of how you will set up your free 1-month subscription. There is no hassle involved.

Over the past few days, I have been using the Betfair 10 system to try to find some lay selections – but without success. I have gone completely through today’s race card and have found found not a single selection that passes all of the Betfair 10 system rules.
This does make me think that Betfair 10 lays will be very few, and far, between. Maybe this is the reason why the author(s) of Betfair 10 have nor produced a previous lay selection history?
I will try to go through tomorrow’s race cards this evening and see if there are any lays for tomorrow.
Tue 7th July
I’ve gone through today’s race cards and I’ve found 2 selections that I believe pass all of the Betfair 10 rules. The lays are:
4.45 Wolv The Last Alzao WON SP 10/1
7.40 Sthl Iron Out LOST SP 7/1
The system sets a max lay odds limit of 6.0. Both selections are currently above this limit!

Hi Chris
I find the fact that they provide no proofed selections a bit disturbing; it defies belief that anyone serious about selling a system would market their product in this way. I agree with your good self that the lack of proofing remains a concern!!! and while I fully appreciate that this is only currently only £30 odd pounds I would in no way purchase this product without your own medium to long term review, as there is no indication of strike rate, profit on turnover, etc.

Hi Phil
I agree that the lack of proofed results is disturbing. It’s a pity because some good proofing would have made the system so much better.
Having said that – the system rules are pretty sound. There are only a couple that I would have liked more explanation and evidence that they are crucial in making good lay selections.
I did try to find some lays for today but I couldn’t. The system is such that you can get right the way through to rule 10 with a race before a selection fails the final rule. This is a much slower technique than my own Logical Lay System that was developed with speed of lay selection in mind. Most potential lays fail the first 2-3 rules.

Hi Sean
Welcome to this blog where you will get honest advice and none of the over-hyped claptrap that just about all of the system sellers seem to consider essential.
A good system is certainly one that works consistently over long periods of time (years). Such systems are few and far between because anyone who has such a system would be absolutely mad to share it with anyone else. This is always the great enigma as to why system sellers actually need to sell their systems. If a system really is making thousands of pounds per week, then why would you want to sell it?
The other key problem with most systems currently on the market is that there is no real independent evidence to back up the performance claims of the system, let alone the profit claims. Screenshots are not enough (as you’ll see in my video about Betfair Horse Power which clearly shows that some “fiddling” of figures had been taking place).
The aim of this blog and my services are to show honestly how you can make money from betting – backed up with video proof showing real bets being placed with a real Betfair account. No-one else – as far as I am aware – provides the degree of proof that I do.
I hope that you’ll take the time to go through some of the posts and videos on this blog and my other websites – hopefully, it will open your eyes to how profitable betting can be with the right amount of patience, determination and sticking with a good system.

hi chris, i getting quite frustrated with all these systems about at the moment, i have had free trial of a lay system and i purchased the vbetfair horse power a while back, so far if you had back there lays you would be better off by a mile!!!
i have been looking for a bot (free if i can find one) i seem to be having more luck on the dogs than the horses at the moment. Any help with the bot would be much appreciated. greg
Hi again, It was not betfair horse power i purchased it was betting confidante, still not good.
Yes, it is easy to spend a small fortune on the never-ending stream of betting systems that get released every year. It is fine to buy some of them if you have the funds for “research” purposes. Whilst many of these systems do not work in the long run, they can give you ideas for modifying them and creating your own system.
For example, if you have found a lay system and it really is better to use the selections as back bets rather than lay bets to make a consistent long-term profit, then use the system like that. You might also find with some systems that by applying one or more additional filters that you can make a poor system into a very good one.
This will take patience, time and effort – but that is precisely how new profitable techniques are discovered. And if you have found it yourself, then you’ll know that no-one else is using it.
I much prefer placing bets manually than using a bot, because bots have a couple of major drawbacks when it comes to placing bets. The biggest problem you will encounter with a bot is getting your bet matched. It is easy to manually alter a bet to get it matched if the odds drift against the price that you had originally tried to get matched at. A bot will place a bet into the market at a specified time but cannot react if the odds move so that the bet does not get matched. This is especially true with greyhound laying where the price drifts in the few minutes before race time can be very substantial.

You say “This does make me think that Betfair 10 lays will be very few, and far, between” and I think this serves as a warning. If your lay selection (at 7.0) actually comes first place, then how long are you going to have to wait before you win back the loss?
Personally, I never lay anything higher than evens. The risk is not worth it, and there are more than enough beaten favourites on evens or less to make it worthwhile.

As I keep saying – betting (especially laying) must be viewed as a long-term activity to judge performance. What counts is the long-term strike-rate and ensuring that your average lay odds are below the break-even figure.
For example, if you had a 95% strike-rate (even with selections occurring only once every 10 days), would you really not lay selections of 7.0?
Chris
I personally am not comfortable with laying at odds 2.0, irrespective of strike rate. i’m happy with my current methods and comfortable with my current risk appetite. Maybe that is the point i’m trying ot make: Irrespective of whether or not HP is successful, we all have a comfort level and HorsePower operates a system that sits outside my comfort level.
That is an important point that many gamblers / investors do not appreciate. Comfort levels / personal risk appetites. I’m sure I could right an eBook about this topic……
Whilst I can see your point of view, you need to appreciate that it is because people stay within their comfort levels that they never achieve anything worthwhile. This is not something confined to betting but is relevant to everyday life.
How many people have you heard complain “Oh I wish I could change my life – I really hate my 9-to-5 job” (Or words to that effect). But when you give them a list of things they could do to radically improve their life (eg do part-time study; train for a new career; become self-employed), they then start moaning “Oh I couldn’t do that because…..” (what invariably follows is a list of feeble excuses). What they really mean is that their humdrum life is actually quite comfortable and they are sh**-scared about taking a risk.
But all successful people in life know that it was going outside their comfort-zone that gives them the greatest challenges – and the greatest rewards- in life.

Hi Chris, Nothing to do with the previous discussion but a quick question about your lowlay system.
One of the races at epsom tonight has a non runner reducing the field to eight,
Will you be laying or not???????
Thanks.
Greg
“Lowlay” is someone else’s product – mine is the Logical Lay System. To answer your question – I cannot recall a single occasion when I have altered a lay bet because the field has dropped below 9 runners. Of course, you have to be sensible because if there were a large number of non-runners and they were mainly the more favoured horses, then there is a much better chance that your lay will win.
Much also depends on whether you have already placed the lay bet when the non-runners are declared. If you have not made a bet, then it might be sensible to miss out the race. But if you have placed the lay, then the odds may drop so that you could not cancel the lay without losing money. In that situation you might as well let the bet stand.
I have already placed a lay in this evening’s race and will not be altering it.
Chris
