All By The Book Final Review – Click Here
5 Stars and Highly Recommended!
Hi Bloggers
I have been testing All by the book since the 14th April and I can certainly say that it was a complete new approach for me, but anyway I took the bull by the horns and gave it a shot and the results have been very impressive to say the least. Over the 84 days working to 105% and below All by the book has made a profit of 1623.67 points with a total maximum risk of 1440.41 points, that is a very high plus 112.72% Return on Maximum Risk.
Before any sharp eyed people notice yes that is an additional 40 points on the final total we had on Day 84 this was due to a couple of odd mistakes as regards Non Runners in May for which I apologize for, the actual review figures will be amended shortly.
Anyway I have given a breakdown of the figures for working up to 105 below on All by The Book:

Pretty impressive stuff 2 days out of 3 were winning ones, our maximum loss on any given Day was only 26.41 points yet our maximum return was 117.31 points. Now it must be said that using the 105 criteria things can become hectic on some days, but the average is only around 6 races per day and once you get used to All by the book it can be operated quickly and easily. Now I can appreciate it might be difficult for those working during the week so, how did All by the book fair just on the weekends? lets have a look:

So the figures look even better with All by the book making an average of over 19 points per day, a better strike rate all round and a higher percentage return. So you folks who can only use All by the book at weekends will certainly not lose out. Now I would have Passed and Recommended All by the book just on the above performance, but things are about to get even better a lot of you blogger’s have been asking which is the best strategy, working to 105% book or 103% book, here is your answer!

So you are probably thinking is Sgt Dave crazy, not yet, okay we have lost 574.55 points profit from working to 105 but we have now lost over 1053.66 points from our Maximum Risk look at the Return Percentage that is awesome. It also makes All by the book easier to manage, you only get an average of 3 to 4 qualifying races a day. Once you get up and running it will not take long to place your bets and less money management because you are dealing with less races.
The most I ever had on one day with All by the book was 10 races the next was 8. If you were operating a Lay system you normally have to start with a Bank of 100 points well to Betfair minimum stake of 2 pounds so you would need a Betting Bank of 200 pounds. For that kind of money you could use 10 pence per point and start using All by the book. So even for such modest stakes you would have made 104.91 pounds in 12 weeks, and by compounding you can gradually increase the value of your point.
Finally for those folks who can only operate All By The Book at weekends what would your results be for 103% and below:

Once again if you have only time available at weekends you are still going to make a good profit with All by the book.
So lets look at the disadvantages:
The bookmakers are going to ban you because you are winning, well this has been discussed many times on the blog but just to condense what was said:
- Do not go crazy with your staking if you have sufficient capital 100 pounds per race is enough.
- Round off your bets having strange odd amounts: i.e. 27.87 is a dead give away you are using a system round it off to 28.
- Spread your bets evenly and try not to have multiples with the same bookmaker.
- If a bookmaker account is making too much profit try to create a sure bet on betfair by laying low and backing high on the bookies account with the view to the back bet losing. You should do this with selections in any market where the price is ideally below 4.0 or 3/1 and we are aiming for the back bet in the bookies to lose so that the lay bet in betfair is successful. This way we can cash out our winnings in betfair and our bookies company is left feeling happy that your account is a losing one. This will not always be simple you could go on a fantastic run and end up tripling or even quadrupling your bookies account before you lose the bet. Try to research which bets are most likely to lose. Competitive large field horse races are ideal. As long as you look like a true gambler and always end up losing the bet which you will the bookmaker will love your custom…
Even if you do end up, after taking plenty of the bookmakers cash getting banned or a restricted account All by the book will give you ideas that can help you make money. Unfortunately I cannot disclose any details, but if you look at some of the comments in my All by the book review some blogger’s are using variations of the method already to make more profit.
Other comments “I don’t have time” Well as already has been proved it works just as well on Weekends as it does any other time, using 103% or below should reduce the time needed by around 50% as over half the selections have been removed and also gives better value. In betting if you want to succeed you have to put the time in, it’s no different to any other business.
All by the book requires a lot of capital well yes if you want to stake 1 pound per point, but as I said earlier you could start doing 103% or less with around 200 pounds which is the minimal for most lay and back systems etc and you are going to make more profit using All by the book with minimal risk. Just start off slowly use compounding and you will be able to get your stakes to a reasonable level.
Yes like every other method or system you will have losing days with All by the book but your risk is minimal, which is one of the good points with the method. An excellent return on risk is another and the fact that the All by the book is unique can also be added to the list.
In conclusion All by the book has been a really exciting product to review and I give it the maximum five stars due to its outstanding and regular profit making abilities, as I have said before no system or method is 100% perfect, yes you have to put some work in and do some money management but this is a small price to pay for the profits. My only problem now is where I can find another product like All by the book to review.

I’ve just started using ABTB and have a question: I placed one of my bets on stanjames.com today, on the horse Harbringer at Ascot 16:25 race @ odds 4,5 . The SP was according to sportinglife.com 4/1 which I understand translates to 5, but I did not get this price according to the statement at stanjames (I have calculated that I only got 4,5 when checking my return). When betting on stanjames you can check either the EP (which was 4,5) or SP. I checked 4,5. Do you have to check SP to get BoG? Or does this mean that I’ve lost BoG at stanjames after two days of small stakes (1-3 pounds)? Do you guys have any ideas? Thank you!
I would contact them if thats the case.
I made 102pts yesterday and 22 of them were on Harbringer.
jackie
Are you using 103% or 105%
cheers
david
I use 105 and have found it more profitable.
Re Stan James. And BOG prices, it has been brought to my attention they are picking and choosing which accounts to give BOG prices to0. I have had 2 clients now that have complained to Stan James one has had the bet honoured at BOG price, however also recieved an email saying that BOG is a promotional tool, and they are not going to use BOG on this account, due to there traders advice.
So if you get a Stan James bet not honoured at BOG price. Complain to them. I can not find in there terms and conditions that it is a choice they make.
Cheers
Steve

I emailed Stan James about it and here is the reply:
“Dear Hakon
Thank you for your reply.
Unfortunately your account is not eligible for this offer, I apologise for any disappointment.
[this was bolded in larger font:]Stan James may in its absolute discretion limit the eligibility of customers to participate in any promotion.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if I can be of any further assistance.
Kind regards,
Yvette”
So Stan James is out for me… I guess what might have provoked it is that I bet at two horses in the same race the first day. Or that I won on two of the three first bets… I have not used large stakes though, I’ve staked about 9 pounds in total on 4 bets, and won about 27 pounds total.
Hope this doesn’t happen with more bookmakers! And if we try to “transfer” the money out through Betfair as suggested, so that the bookmakers don’t loose money, they shouldn’t need to “fear” us anyway…. We’ll just have to see I guess.
We should probably use different usernames for each bookie account we use as i am sure that bookmakers will work together to combat arbers.. And this is what we are doing in effect, and it is so easy for them to track people who use the same usernames for each account.
I fear the bookies are onto this one due to two reasons. Firstly the method has been massively hyped and oversold meaning too many users and secondly users being greedy and not keeping their stakes at a sensible level. This does not include Hakon obviously but he has probably been caught in the backlash.
I think that Tote actually attempted to stop their BOG policy but lost a lot of business and have been forced back into the fray for the moment. If we are not careful the bookies will look very hard at their BOG operation and we will all be the loser.
Strangely enough I have had 20 winning bets with non approved bookies and Betfair/Daq out of a total of 296 races played. I think this means that I have actually taken miniscule money from the BOGS bookies satchels.
I agree with you Alan, unfortunately this really has been a system to shout about for all the right reasons, eg: it actually works!!, but the bookies do work together sometimes.
There is a limit on this, keeping stakes small should help but if the books are onto it then it is game over I ‘m afraid, that is the problem with good systems, once they are made common knowledge and everyone is using the same system and method it draws attention to it and does sometimes have a back lash and i think that has happened in this case, I said about a week ago the bookies can make or break this system and I fear I am right. They can at their discretion limit bog and this is the way they can defeat us.
On a selfish note, if I were Steve I would have kept quiet about this one and used it myself for years to come, that would have made alot more money in the long run than selling a few hundred copies now. But, at least this system was bought to our attention, just a shame the books have found a way to beat it, as I fear they have. I also think most people probably are not rounding the stakes off so it will draw more attention to them.
Thanks Steve though for sharing this one, hopefully this is just a temporary glitch and this method will still work long term….fingers crossed!
Will Hill restricted my account to sports, casino and poker only. 6 weeks later I got back in on Racing but on the following basis as per their risk managers email:
I have further looked at your account and will keep it restricted but I have increased the stake limit you will be allowed. For bets on our early bird races the stake will be quite low, but this will rise three fold when the live shows commence from the race-track.
Rgds,
Des Cassidy
He originally thought: “your betting pattern suggests you are monitoring betting exchanges or indeed arbing your selections”.
It was my own fault as I got lazy one month and pushed too many bets through Will Hill. I have had no problems any other bookie.
Bernard
hi
I have only been using the system for a short time, but i think i may of spotted a pattern when it comes to selecting which races to do.
I find that when the fav is odds on or close to odds on (when we first check the odds) this horse does tend to go onto win and will also shorten in the market. Also if there is little other competition in the race then maybe these types of races we should be avoiding.
I think that maybe the more competative races this will give us more chance to increase our profit…..i maybe wrong.
let me know your thoughts
Hi David,
We are at the time of the flat season when favs do come in more often than not.
I think this will change when the jumps season comes round again and we get sticky conditions leading to some upsets and hopefully more profitable races.
There will of course be a lot less races to get involved with then.
However, shorties do drift a little. Just made a small profit on the first at Perth which won at 1.8
Good Luck
Hi Fellow Bloggers,
As one who bought the system, but never used it, because of its’ painstaking operation and obvious pratical limitations, I’m quite sure Steve made money more quickly by selling this to us, than he’d make in a month of Sundays following the system. It is open to question if this can retain 5 star status on any basis other than its mathematical truths —VIZ., 2+2 will always be 4.
I think that this method of betting is not suited to punters that dont want to or, just cannot cut it having any discipline and organisation. Two things any gambler needs to succeed.
To comment on Donniemacs comment. Im sure there will be others that agree and disagree with what I am saying but maybe if as a gambler they see this as painstaking they probably are not cut out to make a living from gambling.
I personally haven’t seen in 7 years of gambling anything as sure fire as this, and when i apply my discipline and organisation it works perfectly better than anythng else out there.
Agree? Disagree? would love to hear your views?
Well, I think it is more akin to investing than gambling. Effort put in is rewarded quite well once you are organised and adept at using the strategy.
There is something “warming” in putting a ton on a race and the worse that can happen is you lose a couple of pounds but yet when it hits….you pull in decent returns.
The error Donniemac is revealed in your opening comment that you “bought it but have never used it”
?? ??????
Give it a whirl mate, put some effort in, try it and report back in a week.
Go on, surprise yourself. Use money that you can afford from any savings in crap interest paying accounts. This will pay you a better rate.
Cheers,
Bernard
Hi Comm.,
Happily, I’m big enough to accept and respect your opinion of my views, and your analysis of my betting profile. but —— “better than anything else out there” —— I’ll askyou again in January.
In the meantime, congratulations again on the excellence of your site, Don’t know how you find the time to play A.B.T.B.!!!
I have made nearly 5 times back what i payed for this system in 3 weeks.
I am a mother of 4 young children and can still manage the hour a day it takes me.
If the bookies put a stop to it i will be dissapointed but then again i have made money and that is thanks to the author of this syatem.
As for being painstaking then i guess only a very successful big time gambler would think this or maybe someone who cannot spare an hour a day at around noon.
Well i say an hour but i can normally get it done in 30 mins.
Jackie
Hi Donnie I did try to word it so that it wasnt directed at you sir, Because maybe those things dont apply to you, I do not know. I was trying to make an effort in the conversation here. It takes me an hour a day mate tops, maybe 30 mins at the end of each day to shuffle accounts around. But i dont do it every day. Time does not allow it.
I agree with Jackie wholeheartedly apart from i actually think thanks should be given mostly to David and Betting System Truths for finding this gem and bringing it to me.
I spent months watching James and his site, he has saved me around £500 this year alone on systems i was about to buy and found out they were useless, i wonder how many people this applies to aswell Im guessing that is why this site is touted as the best betting review blog on the net? And subsequently why it gets the most visitors reading it.
Thanks BST, thanks James and thanks to the reviewers that are volunteers serving us mere ponies!
Jackie,
well done. approx., £400 in front after 3 weeks?? that’s amazing. maybe I need to look again!! has anybody else matched Jackie’s achievments?
Hi Donniemac
I can almost visualise your starting pistol held high above your head as you sport an enormous grin from ear to ear ;o)
I sense a wind up here!
In the unlikely event you are not joking, I would find hard to grasp why anyone would not want to turn the tables on the bookies and take money like candy from the proverbial baby.
If this does not last for whatever reason let’s make good whilst we can and like Bernard said…. ‘have a slice of the cake Donniemac’ ;o)
All the best
MikeL
I have noticed that a lot of the outsiders that are quoted at 20 to say 40 in the early odds drift out significantly on Betfair close to the off. For those who are really organised and able to watch the betting before the off, why not wait until 10 or 15 mins before the offer and back at much higher odds. Smaller stakes all add up to bigger profits at the end of the day. Very little risk attached to this.
I’m sure Donniemac would like to try this ! lol
Had to place bets by phone today with Bet365 , I think they are on to me.
Hi Jackie
Were you experiencing errors/pop ups/messages in red… when trying to place bets? Are they restricting you?
Not sure what you mean about phone bets…were you getting BOG?
Cheers
Mike
I kept getting max bet all the time so i rang them and they said for the time being that their not comfortable with the amounts i have been betting and would have to be monitored by a trader.
Thanks Jackie ;0( sorry to hear this but you should be ok with the others. I don’t have WH and I’ve noticed that they have been putting up better odds recently. Good luck.
hi jackie i had the same problem for over a year with b365 on the internet,i have to phone to place bets, every now and again they limit my bets but so far none on abtb.
each way bets with this firm for me are a waste of time the last one i wanted was on a 7/2 shot £10 each way was limited to £2.50 i said forget it and went else where.
back to abtb i bet to £100 a race are you doing more then this? if so that could be the problem.
the only other bookie i have to ring to get a trader to ok the bet is boylesports i had one this morning was fine £16 win.
Hi Jackie
Are the amounts you have been placing with 365 high or just odd amounts, also have you ‘lost’ your profit with them eg to betfair ?
Otherwise i just think everyone should avoid 365 ?
Russ
Hi Russ
I always round off my bets and i have been draining the account.
I bet £100 a race and my largest bet with them has been £60 which made a small profit of 8pts yesterday.
I have used them today but only with the larger odds so very small stakes.
Hi
Was wondering if any one get any winners yesterday from this not sure if the bookies are sorting books out as recently they seem to be spot on what sp returns
