ProTipster's English Premier League Tracking & Recap

2012-04-01T22:48:00.000+08:00

26 Nov 2011 EPL Analysis Recap
Sadly, our sole pick on QPR crumbled as they lost to Norwich City. Our method of analysis would always be on improving our picks. Perhaps some would have trust the picks too much. Do remember this analysis is still only in the 46.4% strike rate. So just take our selection as a reference for you to decide what to stake on. We hope to see some improvement on the upcomming EPL weekend. Cheers and happy punting

Our statistics from the 30 EPL picks we have made so far:

Total Picks : 30

Total Wins: 12

Total Win1/2 : 1

Total Draws : 2

Total Loss : 13

Total Lose1/2 : 2

Profit/Loss : -1.5 Units

Strike Rate : 46.4%

19-20 Nov 2011 EPL Analysis Recap

Fantastic results from our EPL Analysis over the weekend! Our analysis on Stoke vs QPR and Chelsea vs Liverpool were spot on this time whereby we predicted QPR and Liverpool both on Asian Handicap. To cap off the fantastic weekend, we recommended a small stake on Liverpool to Win at Odds 4.1! Now we look forward to the coming weeks as we try to achieve consistent winning predictions. Stay tune with us!

Our statistics from the 29 EPL picks we have made so far:

Total Picks : 29

Total Wins: 12

Total Win1/2 : 1

Total Draws : 2

Total Loss : 12

Total Lose1/2 : 2

Profit/Loss : -0.5 Units

Strike Rate : 48.1%

5-6 Nov 2011 EPL Analysis Recap

We started off with win on Newcastle on Saturday but broke even when our selection of Stoke City ended with a thrashing given by Bolton. 1 Win and 1 Loss sums up our EPL picks for the weekend of 5-6 Nov 2011. Horrible outcome for Stoke despite going into the match with confidence after winning their midweek Europa League match.

Our statistics from the 27 EPL picks we have made so far:

Total Picks : 27

Total Wins: 10

Total Win1/2 : 1

Total Draws : 2

Total Loss : 12

Total Lose1/2 : 2

Profit/Loss : -2.5 Units

Strike Rate : 44.0%

29-30 Oct 2011 EPL Analysis Recap

For EPL week 29-30 Oct 2011 we only manage to select 2 matches for analysis and verdict. Out of the 2 matches we have selected, we managed to select a winner from the Wigan vs Fulham match while losing half our stakes on the Sunderland vs Aston Villa match. That would bring us to +0.5 unit profit for this week. A sign of improvement as we continue to refine our selection method.

Our statistics from the 25 EPL picks we have made so far:

Total Picks : 25

Total Wins: 9

Total Win1/2 : 1

Total Draws : 2

Total Loss : 11

Total Lose1/2 : 2

Profit/Loss : -2.5 Units

Strike Rate : 43.5%

Although our current strike rate and profit/loss figures are not impressive, we believe that our picks would continue to improve. Do take not that from the previous week, we broke even and this week we made a +0.5 unit profit. Proof that our selection method is working. We look forward to the coming weeks and hope that our readers would continue to follow our analysis and picks. Cheers!

23-24 Oct 2011 EPL Analysis Recap

We end our EPL week 23-24 Oct 2011 with 2 Wins, 1 Draw and 2 Losses. Nothing much to shout about as we could only break even from the 5 picks we made. Although we could have gone for Newcastle -0.75 FT where it would have provided us with 1/2 unit profit, but we are satisfied with the breakeven outcome.

There's still much to look into our analysis and picks especially on the losses on Wolves and Fulham. A little bit more of adjustment and we hope to see a profitable outcome the coming week.

Of the 5 picks, our most confident pick was on Tottenham, which we did not mention anywhere in this blog. Perhaps from next week onwards, some form of rating would be added to our analysis to indicate the confidence level of each pick.

Felt sorry for the United fans as their team were thrashed by neighbors City. While Chelsea got off the wrong footing and by getting themselves 2 red cards, not much can be said about their performance apart from the fact that they brought the loss to themselves. Till the coming weekend, the Soccer Service Team bid everyone good luck and happy punting! Cheers!

15-16 Oct 2011 EPL Analysis Recap

Selected 2 Matches for that week, one on QPR -0.5 FT and the other on Wigan Lvl FT using the refined analysis. Unfortunately, the outcome ended the opposite of what we expect it to be. However, we still have lots of confidence in the method and shall try it out again for next weekend's EPL matches. We don't plan to judge the effectiveness of a method just from 2 matches. We are going to see the outcome from at least 10 matches to see the winning average before we decide if its feasible to continue with the current analysis style.

1-2 Oct 2011 EPL Analysis Recap

Looks like the refined analysis aren't going that well. Total results for 2 days : 2 Wins and 3 Lost. Poor poor average. Never the less. from those 5 matches, we have managed to draw some conclusions from it. We shall still continue posting picks although it has resulted in overall losses. So for the readers, do take it only as reference and nothing more.

Hopefully the Soccer Service team would be able to grasp the odds pattern and in the mean time the readers could rely on our Inhouse tipster, Mr. Ryan78 whose current record is 2 Wins and 0 Losses. An experienced punter with 7 years punting experience under his belt, Mr. Ryan78 (who is also an ardent Manchester United fan) only specializes in EPL matches. We at Soccer Service team would welcome him as a member of our team and hopefully would see him provide consistent winning tips for the entire season!

There will be an international break this coming weekend and rest assured, we will not be resting as we try to provided the analysis for England national team matches.

24-26 Sept 2011 EPL Analysis Recap

Horrendous analysis for that weekend! 1Win, 1 Draw and 2.5 Lost, wipes out all the profit from the first week. I am currently working on refining the analysis and hopefully this effort would yield positive results this coming weekend. Realize there are flaws in deducing handicaps from statistics which I have managed to come up with another alternative here. Also looking at odds prediction from a different perspective instead of waiting for the closing odds.

Much excitement here if the refined analysis works this coming weekend. Meanwhile, lets all enjoy the Champions League for the next two days. Cheers and good luck!

12-18 Sept 2011 EPL Analysis Recap

I am currently only selecting English Premier League matches for my analysis due to the large following of soccer fans, my personal inclination towards it as well as to ensure the outcome of each analysis would be accurate by concentrating on a single league.

From period 12-18 Sept 2011, I have completed 5 analysis as listed below:

12 Sept 2011 : FULL ANALYSIS : QUEENS PARK RANGERS vs NEWCASTLE UTD

16 Sept 2011 : FULL ANALYSIS : 17th Sept 2011 : ASTON VILLA vs NEWCASTLE UTD

16 Sept 2011 : FULL ANALYSIS : 17th Sept 2011 : SWANSEA CITY vs WEST BROMWICH ALBION

16 Sept 2011 : FULL ANALYSIS : 17th Sept 2011 : BOLTON WANDERERS vs NORWICH CITY

18 Sept 2011 : FULL ANALYSIS : 18th Sept 2011 : TOTTENHAM vs LIVERPOOL

18 Sept 2011 : FULL ANALYSIS : 18th Sept 2011 : SUNDERLAND vs STOKE

I started off with the analysis on QPR vs Newcastle Utd which resulted in a morale boosting winning pick made on Newcastle Utd. Looking back at the match preview, I would consider this pick as a lucky pick as the match was totally dominated by QPR yet they fail to score.

3 other analysis followed for Saturday's EPL matches which resulted in 1 Win and 2 Losses. Swansea pick was the only winner from the analysis while Bolton self destructed by getting a red card while Aston Villa misses a hat-full of chances to secure a win.

Sunday's analysis resulted in 2 Wins and 0 Losses. Picks on Sunderland and Tottenham were spot on as I was greeted with 4 goals thrashing of their opponents. A rewarding outcome indeed considering the effort placed into the analysis. Looking forward to the upcoming matches and I hope that you will continue to support this humble blog of mine. Cheers!

Signs Of A Scammer : Part 2

2011-11-30T15:36:00.001+08:00

THE FAKE PICTURE SCAM

To the naked eye this picture of a bet-slip looks like any other normal bet-slip.

Never did this scammer realized that he has made the biggest mistake of all thanks to a very very detailed friend who scrutinized the ticket closely and found that this was a fake!

This scammer state the fixed match is on 19 Nov 2011 (19.11) between Hereford United - Burton Albion (kickoff at 16:00). Now I have zoomed in to this picture and take a look at this:

So it's pretty obvious that this ticket has been altered. How could a bet ticket be showing a match date that is ONE MONTH AGO from the actual match date? Clearly this picture of a ticket has been altered by the scammer!

In fact now the entire ticket is questionable of its authenticity. So does all other tickets posted on the site by this scammer.

Realizing his mistake, the scammer quickly made changes to the fake ticket and published a new one with the date changed on his site as shown below:

A quick zoom in of the picture and you could see that the date has been edited to show the correct date:

I have attempted to contact the bookmaker for this bet slip from Hrvatska Lutrija on 23 Nov 2011 to verify this ticket, but have yet to receive any feedback from them. Here's a screenshot of my email to them.

THE SCAMMER

Now after highlighting the fake pictures, I am sure we would all like to know who this scammer is:

Information:

Website : http://offside-trap.net/

E-mail : trap.offside@yahoo.com

Facebook Profile (I can't access since this scammer has blocked me)

Screenshot of offisde-trap.net

SUMMARY

In conclusion, pictures are easily altered to convince many that the scammer is selling genuine fix tips. If it wasn't for the mistake this scammer had made and the good eye sight of a friend, we would never have known that this site is not trusted unless we purchase the picks and lose money from it!

In our next edition of Signs of Scammers, we will be exploring how to differentiate between a real picture and a fake picture. Stay tune next Week and Happy Punting!

MATCH PREVIEW
Available HERE at Soccernet.com

Norwich City have taken two points from a possible 12 while QPR have managed six points from their last four matches.

NORWICH TEAM NEWS

Russell Martin will continue in central defence for Norwich but the club's injury problems at the back look to be easing.

Central defenders Zak Whitbread and Daniel Ayala came through reserve matches and could be in contention to come off the substitutes' bench in this weekend's Barclays Premier League match against QPR.

Ritchie de Laet is also training again after recovering from a back injury. Striker James Vaughan is still sidelined with a long-term knee injury, as is centre-back Elliott Ward.

QPR TEAM NEWS

QPR captain Joey Barton is suspended for the trip to Carrow Road.

Heidar Helguson is a doubt after playing only a limited part in training because of his eye injury, but Fitz Hall, Jay Bothroyd, Jason Puncheon and Adel Taarabt are back.

Matt Connolly (ankle), Kieron Dyer (foot), DJ Campbell (foot) and Brian Murphy (calf) are definitely out.

SQUAD

Norwich City: Ruddy, Naughton, Martin, Barnett, Tierney, Whitbread, Ayala, Crofts, Johnson, Fox, Bennett, Pilkington, Jackson, Hoolahan, Holt, Morison, Rudd, Drury, Surman, Wilbraham.

QPR: Kenny, Hall, Gabbidon, Taarabt, Traore, Bothroyd, Faurlin, Orr, Buzsaky, Young, Smith, Helguson, Wright-Phillips, Ferdinand, Puncheon.

SUMMARY

1. ANALYSIS :

The Canaries vs Rangers in a match up that's most likely overshadowed by other matches. While Norwich have lost 2 on the trot, they have not been losing those matches easily. The same could be said for QPR who has brought bought Man City and Tottenham to the limit before losing out. Based on the team news, we see that Rangers would be playing today without their influential captain Joey Barton as well as start midfielder Heidar Helguson. Never the less, the return of Adel Taarabt should compensate for the loss of Ranger's key players. Norwich should have their regulars fit for these match and the advantage is on them playing at home.

2. ODDS ANALYSIS :

Opening odds for this match is Norwich -0.25 FT (w81). As of time of writing, the odds stands at Norwich -0.5 FT (w84), with no clear indication on whose side punters are siding on.

Our statistically deduced odd is at QPR -0.5 FT (w80). Comparing this with the opening odds by bookmakers, we see that oddsmakers are putting up an irresistible odd for Norwich considering the fact that Rangers are without certain key players for this match.

3. CONCLUSION

On paper and form, Rangers should have the better advantage. We strongly believe oddsmakers are playing on the sentiment that Rangers are missing key players along with the fact that Norwich are playing at home to warrant odds of Norwich -0.25 FT. An odds to good to be true for punters to stake on Norwich, which they would only lose half their stakes if the match ends with a draw.

Rangers are a resilient team that does not revolve around a single key player. We believe that even without Barton, Rangers are able to shoot down the Canaries. A small stake on Rangers to Win at 3.43.

FINAL VERDICT : Queens Park Rangers +0.25 FT (Odds Available For Staking At MANSION)

*Note : All picks are by no means assured of the outcome, the final decisions lies within your own choice.

Signs Of A Scammer! Part 1

2011-11-24T18:23:00.001+08:00

To a scammer, their main objective is just to get your money by claiming they have a fixed tip. The usual modus operandi for a scammer is by finding victims on facebook. Just by creating an account, a scammer is all set for business. Once they have scammed, the facebook account would then be deleted and they start all over again with a new one.

A scammer with some skills can go even further by providing false proof such as fake betting slips, fake screenshots and such. With these extra materials, it makes it easier for a scammer to con a person.

Well since we can't really verify if the materials are genuine or not, it is entirely up to our own ability to detect if that person is scammer or not.

Today, we are going to share one of a few signs of detection to help you filter out these scammers.

The first sign we are going to share today is:

"A scammer is always desperate to sell their so called fixed tip"

Here's a case study provided by a friend of us with regards to a conversation with a scammer. Just read through the conversation below:

What you can see is how desperate a tip seller(scammer) can be especially if they don't have the real information on a match. They start off by offering a price, and if a potential customers starts to lose interest, the conversation turns into a bargaining deal (such as one you normally see in the market). The price of the tips go lower and lower, till the point that either the tip seller(scammer) gives up in frustration or he offers the pick for FREE, hoping that he might get lucky on those picks.

We can safely conclude that a tip seller who is desperate or sound desperate to sell their picks are most likely to be a scammer. Scammers might get lucky on the picks with lower odds, but when it comes to odds 10 or above, do be cautious on who you chose to purchase the picks from.

So there you have it, one of the tell-tale signs that could help you weed out the scammers. We have many more other signs which we hope to share in the upcomming weeks.

Till then, Cheers and Happy Punting.

22 Nov 2011 : UEFA Champions League Picks

2011-11-22T11:41:00.001+08:00

Occasionally, we provide FREE Champions League picks just for the fun especially for our readers who have lots of extra credits for staking. Our team has gone through all 7 matches"in detailed" and have selected 2 matches purely for reference.

*Seriously, when we meant detailed..we meant the opposite. More like a test of luck especially after we have placed a new lucky charm on our sidebar. May the Chinese Dragon watch over us!

Now let's get started:

Otelul Galati vs FC Basel

Asian Handicap : FC Basel -0.75 FT

Total Goal : 2 1/2

Group C

	Clubs	P	W	D	L	F	A	+/-	Pts
1	Manchester United FC	4	2	2	0	8	4	4	8
2	SL Benfica	4	2	2	0	5	2	3	8
3	FC Basel 1893	4	1	2	1	6	7	-1	5
4	FC Oţelul Galaţi	4	0	0	4	1	7	-6	0

Both teams meet in the first phase of the group match which resulted in 2-1 victory for Basel at home. A glance into their domestic league perfomance indicate that Otelul Galati has yet to clear the Tg Over 2.5 handicap since 10 Sept 2011. While Basel, domestically also has also not cleared Tg Over 2.5 playing away for a number of games before managing a 3-2 victory over a very weak Lausanne team recently.

In terms of the Champions League, Otelul chances of qualifying looks pretty dead while FC Basel will increase their chances by securing a win here. Am expecting an all out attacking display from Basel as they have proven by scoring 4 goals from their 2 away matches. Albeit, Basel has also conceded 4 goals from those 2 matches as well. Otelulu has yet to score at home and conceded 3 goals from 2 home games.

With Basel needing a win, we expect them to score at least 2 goals and conceding 1 in return.

Verdict : Total Goal Over 2 1/2

Correct Score : 1-2

Napoli vs Manchester City

Asian Handicap : Manchester City -0.25 FT

Total Goal : 2 1/2

Group A

	Clubs	P	W	D	L	F	A	+/-	Pts
1	FC Bayern München	4	3	1	0	8	3	5	10
2	Manchester City FC	4	2	1	1	6	4	2	7
3	SSC Napoli	4	1	2	1	6	5	1	5
4	Villarreal CF	4	0	0	4	1	9	-8	0

Both teams drew 1-1 at Manchester in the first phase of the group match and managed to come out with 1 point each. An interesting match as we see the Leaders of respective Domestics League go against each other with a hell lot of at stake. Both teams need to win in order increase their standings.

Domestically, City defeated Newcastle by a 3-1 scoreline at home. Their rampaging strike force have been scoring goals with ease which would not bode well with Napoli. On the other hand Napoli has one of the stingiest defense in Seria A. Never the less, the aggresive playstyle of City could pose a problem with Napoli as the matches in Seria A are not as fast paced and aggressive as the Premier League.

We expect to have a winner here for today and City certainly look set to be the favorite. A difficult choice to select a winner as many unexpected results could occur. Instead we are going for Total Goals as a safer option.

Verdict : Total Goal Over 2 1/2 FT

Correct Score : 1-2, 0-3, 2-1

CHELSEA TEAM NEWS

Captain Steven Gerrard is still making his way back to full fitness after an ankle infection.

Andre Villas-Boas is expecting everyone but Michael Essien to be fit.

Daniel Sturridge was set to shake off a knock picked up yesterday that caused him to miss training on Friday, while fellow striker Didier Drogba has recovered from the arm surgery he underwent while suspended prior to the international break.

Goalkeeper Hilario is back from a bout of flu, while Essien is on course to return from knee surgery at the turn of the year.

LIVERPOOL TEAM NEWS

Striker Luis Suarez is expected to keep his place in the starting line-up after being rested for Uruguay's friendly win over Italy in midweek as a precautionary measure after a minor back problem.

Captain Steven Gerrard is still making his way back to full fitness after an ankle infection.

SQUADS

Chelsea: Cech, Bosingwa, Ferreira, Ivanovic, Terry, Cole, Luiz, Mikel, Romeu, Ramires, Lampard, Mata, Malouda, Meireles, McEachran, Torres, Drogba, Kalou, Sturridge, Anelka, Lukaku, Turnbull, Hilario.

Liverpool: Reina, Johnson, Carragher, Agger, Enrique, Kuyt, Adam, Lucas, Downing, Suarez, Carroll, Doni, Kelly, Skrtel, Coates, Henderson, Spearing, Rodriguez, Bellamy.

SUMMARY

1. ANALYSIS :

The Blues vs the Reds. Both teams are not performing as many would have expected. Chelsea only managed to scrape a solitary goal win over Blackburn while Liverpool could only draw at home against lowly Swansea. The news for the past couple of days wasof course related Torres playing against his former team. Both teams would need a win. A Chelsea win would see them go 3rd of the league. Liverpool victory would put them level on points with Chelsea. A must win game for both teams as the contention for the top 4 qualifying spot of the Champion's League are at stake.

2. ODDS ANALYSIS :

Opening odds for this match is Stoke -0.75 FT (w106). As of time of writing, the odds stands at Chelsea -0.5 FT (w88), indicating punters preference on Liverpool to at least draw this match.

Our statistically deduced odd is at Chelsea Lvl FT (w100). Comparing this with the opening odds by bookmakers, we see that oddsmakers are putting up a pretty attractive odds on Chelsea with the need for them to just WIN by a goal in order for punters to profit half a stake.

3. CONCLUSION

A tight game for both teams of equal quality. Yet the odds by the Bookmakers shows too much favoritism on Chelsea. Although playing at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea does not warrant a -0.75 FT handicap against Liverpool. I expect a draw game and if possible a small stake on Liverpool at 4.1 for 1x2.

FINAL VERDICT : Liverpool +0.75 FT (Odds Available For Staking At MANSION)

*Note : All picks are by no means assured of the outcome, the final decisions lies within your own choice.

MATCH PREVIEW
Available HERE at Soccernet.com

Stoke City have lost three in a row while Queens Park Rangers are bidding to avoid a hat-trick of away defeats.

STOKE TEAM NEWS

Stoke boss Tony Pulis hopes to have a trio of players back available for selection for Saturday's Barclays Premier League match with QPR at the Britannia Stadium.

Ryan Shawcross, Marc Wilson (both muscle strains) and Matthew Etherington (back) could all return to the Potters team after missing the 5-0 defeat at Bolton on 6th November through injury.

Ricardo Fuller (Achilles) is nearing a comeback but this match is too soon for him, while Mamady Sidibe (knee) remains sidelined.

QPR TEAM NEWS

Midfielder Adel Taarabt is not expected to feature for QPR after spending the week with Morocco on international duty.

QPR manager Neil Warnock does have midfielder Akos Buzsaky (Achilles) available while Bradley Orr (Achilles) and defender Matt Connolly (ankle) are close to a return from injury and could feature.

Defender Fitz Hall (hamstring) is set to miss out but there was positive news for midfielder Kieron Dyer, who started running in training this week. Striker DJ Campbell is two to three weeks away from full-time training after having a protective boot removed from his foot.

SQUADS

Stoke City: Begovic, Sorensen, Nash, Huth, Upson, Woodgate, Shawcross, Wilson, Wilkinson, Whelan, Whitehead, Diao, Etherington, Walters, Jerome, Shotton, Arismendi, Pennant, Delap, Crouch, Palacios, Jones, Higginbotham.

Queens Park Rangers: Kenny, Hall, Gabbidon, Connolly, Taarabt, Traore, Bothroyd, Faurlin, Orr, Buzsaky, Dyer, Barton, Young, Smith, Helguson, Murphy, Wright-Phillips, Ferdinand, Puncheon.

SUMMARY

1. ANALYSIS :

An interesting matchup today between both teams who are Level on 12 points in the Premier League. Both have a string of losing streak with Stoke having lost 3 on the trot while QPR have lost their last 2 away matches. Both team are fresh from the International break and would be looking forward to end their losing streak.

Stoke were demolished by Bolton in their previous match probably due to player fatigue after coming back from the midweek Europa League. QPR has put a string of quality plays, bringing the best out of their opponents such Tottenham and Manchester City before losing to late goals. With both teams now fresh and eager for action, we could witness an interesting match being played today.

2. ODDS ANALYSIS :

Opening odds for this match is Stoke -0.75 FT (w101). As of time of writing the odds stands at Stoke -0.75 FT (w107), with no indication on punters preference in this match.

Our statistically deduced odd is at Stoke Lvl FT (w100). Comparing this with the opening odds by bookmakers, we see that oddsmakers are putting up a pretty attractive odds on Stoke with the need for them to just WIN by a goal in order for punters to profit half a stake.

3. CONCLUSION

To sides on equal points and equal strength yet bookmakers are offering Stoke -0.75 FT handicap! Seems strange here as the payout is FULL if Stoke win by 2 clear goals or HALF if stoke win by a goal. Home advantage does count but does not render a -0.75 FT handicap for Stoke. The deserving odds should be Lvl of both teams. I expect QPR to be able to hold their own against Stoke. An interesting matchup but my stakes are on QPR +0.75 FT

FINAL VERDICT : QPR +0.75 FT (Odds Available For Staking At MANSION)

17 Nov 11 : SCAM! - Gorgev.Bloger.Hr (Part 2)

2011-11-17T23:47:00.001+08:00

More interesting updates to share with regards to Igor Gorgev, owner of Gorgev.Bloger.Hr

ATTEMPT TO GET CLARIFICATIOBN FROM IGOR GORGEV
I thought I would try my luck and add myself as a friend with Igor Gorgev on Facebook. Guess what, he actually added me as a friend. So I decided why not try to get some response from him with regards to the scam article I wrote. Here's what happened:

Screenshot 1 : ProTipster was added as friend by Igor Gorgev!

Screenshot 2 : ProTipster places the link of his scam article on one of Igor Gorgev's post!

Screenshot 3: 1 minute later, Igor Gorgev deletes my comment.

Screenshot 4: I try again this time by commenting "Why delete my link? After you have scammed someone?"

Screenshot 5: I got no response, so I post the link of the scam article as well!

Screenshot 6: Lo behold, Igor Gorgev deletes my comments again without replying! A true SCAMMER without even bothering to defend himself (that is if he is innocent).

SUMMARY
I'm waiting for him to remove me from his friend's list. So far he has not done so yet. One more thing I have observed is the fact that even with 2000+ friends, none of them seems to have any interest in the so called "Fixed" tips he is selling. Igor Gorgev, it wont be long for you to shut down your site and your Facebook account.

17 Nov 11 : SCAM! - Gorgev.Bloger.Hr

2011-11-17T15:47:00.001+08:00

SCAMMER : Gorgev.Bloger.Hr

INFORMATION

Details of Gorgev. Bloger. Hr :

Website url : http://gorgev.bloger.hr/

Website owner : Igor Gorgev (name obtained from victim of scam)

Date Of Birth : Unknown

Country : Macedonia (location obtained from victim of scam)

City : Unknown

Email : info@gorgev.com

Facebook : Gorgev

Mode of Transaction : Unknown

The facebook page for Gorgev has a large number of likes probably from the convincing winning picks coming from the Odds 2 matches. What we do no know is the fact the Fixed Matches for Odds 30 given to one of his customers LOST!

THE SCAM

Screenshot of Gorgev.Bloger.Hr:

Victim was convinced by the high strike rate of the picks with Odds 2 provided by Mr. Igor Gorgev. This was the selling point as once a Fixed Tip was declared for Odds 30, many would be tempted to purchase the pick.

Victim decided to purchase a Odds 30 pick Fixed Match scheduled on the 22nd Oct 2011 for 90Euros and will be required to pay an additional 40Euros if the pick wins. (A gimmick many scammers apply to convince people to purchase their picks)

On the 22nd Oct 2011, the "fixed match" was sent out via email as shown as screenshot below:

The fixed tips sent by Scammer Mr. Igor Gorgev was for the following match:

League : England Championship

Date : 22/10/2011

Time : 16:00

Match : Middlesbrough vs Derby

Tips : 2/1

Odds : 30.00

Stake : 10/10

Result from that match:

Clearly Mr. Igor Gorgev does not have any real information of fixed matches and has just scammed our victim off 90Euros!!

CONCLUSION

After a few more correspondence between Mr. Igor and the victim which he said he will sent a free FIX Match as replacement. There were no more replies coming from him after that email. And like all scammers, the results on his website would be different from the losing tip he has sent to the victim. Refer to screenshot below:

To add on, if a match is FIXED, with large sums of money involved, would there be a possibility of LOSING a FIX game? Look at the results above again and you see that Mr. Igor declares his FIXED match on 10 September 2011 between Norway vs Stromsgodset as LOST. FIXED match losing??? Looks like you just shot yourself in the foot Mr. Igor Gorgev.

At SoccerService, we produce write-up based on reports from victims who personally contact us. If Mr. Igor Gorgev from Gorgev.Bloger.Hr happens to read this, feel free to contact us at protipster@rocketmail.com to defend your integrity.

This is our second report on a scam by a website. We notice that majority of the scam websites are coming from sites with the url "bloger.hr*. Our very first advice would be to avoid purchasing picks from sites with *bloger.hr* in their url.

The designs for these sites are always and almost the same as I have mentioned before in my previous scam post. You can identify the similarities such as:
1. Very colourful
2. Single page site (probably it takes only a few minutes to put up one site just to scam others)
3. Lots of advertisement banners that link to other similar tip selling sites of the same design.

12 Nov 2011 : EURO 2012 Playoffs (1st Round)

2011-11-11T20:16:00.001+08:00

After a long break since the Euro 2012 Group Stage, we know have the playoffs for teams whom did not qualify automatically from the group stages. Out of the four Euro 2012 Playoffs matches scheduled for today, we have selected the Bosnia vs Portugal match for analysis.

Bosnia

Portugal

News

Bosnia and Herzegovina are undefeated in their previous six games, and almost beat France for the automatic qualification spot in Group D as Edin Džeko stunned the Stade de France faithful with an opening goal for the away side after 40 minutes. France needed only a draw to progress, and they grabbed the stalemate with a Samir Nasri penalty towards the end of the second half. Džeko’s side will no doubt be disappointed to be pipped by Laurent Blanc’s side, and even more so by being handed giants Portugal in the play-offs. The home side have three first choice defenders out tonight (Pandza, Papac and Mujdza) which is not ideal when trying to contain an on-song Cristiano Ronaldo.

Portugal come into the match after a woeful evening in Copenhagen last month, when they lost 2-1 to the Danes and consequently missed out on automatic qualification for next summer’s Euros. Hopes of eliminating Bosnia will rest almost entirely on Ronaldo’s shoulders, who was taunted with chants of ‘Messi, Messi!’ when he arrived at the airport this week. Ronaldo has netted four hat-tricks already this season, and if the defence can keep Pjanic and Džeko quiet tonight then they should have a good chance of going through.

Players To Watch

Portugal - Cristiano Ronaldo (obviously!)

Bosnia - Edin Dzeko (who else?)

Trend

1. Bosnia last 4 home matches they have managed to score 1 goal or more.

2. Portugal has managed to find the net from their last 2 away games.

3. Weakness on the Bosnian defence as 3 first choice defenders are out tonight

4. Both Ronaldo and Dzeko are scoring regularly in the Primera Liga and EPL respectively.

SoccerService Verdict

Verdict : TOTAL GOAL OVER 2 FT

IMPROVE LUCK WITH FENG SHUI : Part 1

2011-11-10T21:16:00.000+08:00

From today, I will be previewing Feng Shui products that could help enhance our luck, health, career, love and many more. While there are many ways to boost your overall luck, health, career or love, we will be concentrating on improving your luck considering the fact that the majority of the readers here are risk takers (punters). A little element of luck could make difference between making a winning or a losing picks.

Let's begin our first part of product preview with the most common of all luck boosting item which is the "Old Chinese Coins".

History

It was Shih Huang Di, the 'First Emperor' in the Chin Dynasty who began the use of circular coins with a square hole at the centre. This design was to prove the most definitive and was circulated in various guises for around two thousand years. Only recently has it been superceded and it was also adopted by Japan and Korea as the standard for coinage design.

However not all the coins since his time have been the same. It was the norm for each emperor to mark coins made during his reign. On the front of each coin there are then four markings. The top and the bottom reveal which Dynasty the coin is based upon.

What Makes Old Chinese Coins Auspicious?

It is during the Qing Dynasty that China enjoyed what are known as the Five Auspicious Dynasties. A novice might be forgiven for mistaking these with the earlier Five Dynasties period, but they are not the same. The Five Auspicious Dynasties are in fact the first five reigns of the Qing (Ch'ing) Dynasty, namely:

Shun-chi
Kang-hsi
Yung-cheng
Chien-lung
Chia-ching

Due to the fact that all 5 Dynasties went through peace and prosperity, the positive energy from the dynasties are embedded into the coin itself. Although the best would be to posses a genuine coin from that era, many might not have the capability to do so. Therefore another option would be to posses replicas of these coin, which we believe could still reap the positive energy which the symbols represent in the coin.

Recognizing the 5 Auspicious Dynasty Coins

Shun-chi
1644-1641

Kang-shi
1662-1722

Chien-lung
1736-1796

Yung-cheng
1723-1735

Chia-ching
1796-1820

Therefore it is extremely important that when purchasing Old Chinese Coins, make sure that the coin/coins should be of the 5 Auspicious Dynasties. Purchasing coins which are not from the Five Auspicious Dynasties could result in adverse effects on your luck.

9 Nov 2011 : SCAM! - James Bilow (FACEBOOK)

2011-11-09T19:59:00.001+08:00

This is the 2nd time I am writing on a scammer from Facebook. The previous article on a scammer by the name of Sure Tips brought created a chain reaction resulting in the deletion of his facebook account. Here a screenshot of what's left of Sure Tips Facebook page:

See this is how you as readers and facebook-ers can play a role in eliminating scammers such as Sure Tips. Although he does have another account which we need your help to close down. (Sure Tips alternate account CLICK HERE)

That aside, today I will be writing on a scammer by the Facebook alias of James Bilow. We have got some interesting facts to share in this article, so read on!

INFORMATION
Name : Georgia Athanasiou (this name was given by one of his victims)
Location : Nemea Korinthias
Facebook Profile:
1. James Bilow
2. Mairy Lower (previous used name was Miky Sas)

THE SCAM

Although none of the members have any proof of his picks (which probably no one would buy after getting listed as scammer in All Verified Sellers. The obvious thing about James Bilow is the fact that if you look into his facebook accounts, the friends who comment there have the same pattern as below:

1. They all post in the same pattern, one sentence after the other.

2. They all have bad english and they all write in the same way as James Bilow

3. The comments would be in sequence, friend after friend.

4. There is no real conversation at all, just random rubbish about how good the tips are coupled with some congratulations.

I am quite sure that these are multiple accounts created by the same person to boost his popularity. There are all the same person!!!

Well James, for all the effort you have done, it just look ridiculous on your facebook and furthermore it makes you look even more like a SCAMMER!

Here's a screenshot of James Bilow's Facebook wall to support what I just said:

As for Mairy Lower, this account was created (with only 13 friends) just for James Bilow to accuse others of being a scammer. I seriously doubt anyone would believe Mairy Lower and I am guessing those 13 friends are also accounts created by you?? Am I right James?

To add on to your misery, Mr. Georgia Athanasiou @ James Bilow, we do have some testimonials on your previous scams such as shown below:

Testimonial 1

Testimonial 2

CONCLUSION

Now Mr. Georgia Athanasiou, with this article being posted up, rest assured that your career as a SCAMMER under the alias of James Bilow is now over. I am sure you would be starting more fake accounts in the future. But considering the time and effort you have spent on creating so many false accounts to post comments on James Bilow's facebook, I believe it would take a long time for you to build another list of friends such as the one you have now.

Before I end this article, Mr Georgia, James Bilow or Mairy Lower (whichever one you are) do feel free to come up and proof my article wrong.

MATCH PREVIEW

Bolton Wanderers have lost all five home matches this season while Stoke City have lost their last three on the road.

Bolton team news

Ricardo Gardner joins the list of absentees.
Gardner is serving a one-match ban after being sent off in last week's 3-1 defeat at Swansea for collecting two yellow cards, and is likely to be replaced by Paul Robinson, who was benched for the game at the Liberty Stadium.
Boss Owen Coyle, without long-term injured Tyrone Mears, Lee Chung-yong, Stuart Holden, Sean Davis and Sam Ricketts, has no fresh concerns going into the game..

Stoke team news

Manager Tony Pulis is keeping his fingers crossed that a number of his key players will have recovered from injury in time for Sunday's Barclays Premier League trip to Bolton.
Neither Ryan Shawcross nor Marc Wilson travelled to Israel for last night's Europa League clash with Maccabi Tel Aviv after picking up muscle injuries in the defeat by Newcastle on Monday while Matthew Etherington (back), Jermaine Pennant and Rory Delap were only fit enough for the bench.
Danny Higginbotham came through 90 minutes on his return from seven months out with a cruciate ligament injury while Cameron Jerome and Jonathan Woodgate are back in the squad after missing the Tel Aviv trip through suspension and ineligibility respectively.

Squads

Bolton Wanderers: Jaaskelainen, Wheater, Steinsson, Cahill, Knight, Eagles, Robinson, Muamba, Reo-Coker, Petrov, K Davies, Klasnic, Tuncay, Bogdan, M Davies, Pratley, Ngog, Blake, Kakuta.
Stoke City: Begovic, Sorensen, Nash, Huth, Upson, Woodgate, Shawcross, Wilson, Wilkinson, Whelan, Whitehead, Diao, Etherington, Walters, Jerome, Shotton, Arismendi, Pennant, Delap, Crouch, Palacios, Jones, Higginbotham.

SUMMARY

1. ANALYSIS :

We have 3 matches on the cards tonight and based on our Pre-Analysis, we have selected this match for our final analysis. A look at the odds and you might find it strange that Bolton are giving the handicap to a higher ranking team such as Stoke. While Bolton has lost 5 of their home games in a trot, Stoke on the other hand has lost 3 in a row for their away games. Another reason could be the fact that Stoke players could be tired after their midweek Europa League match which they won of course. One with a horrible home record and the other with similar form playing away are about to face each other tonight. Not a match to shout about but a suitable match for punting.

2. ODDS ANALYSIS :

Opening odds for this match is Bolton -0.25 FT (w103). As of time of writing the odds stands at Bolton Lvl FT (w87), indicating punters siding on Stoke for tonight.

Our statistically deduced odd is Stoke -0.75 FT (w98). Comparing this with the opening odds by bookmakers, we see that bookmakers have in fact taken Stoke player fatigue into consideration as well as the fact that they have a lousy away record into account when deriving the odds.

3. CONCLUSION

The trend has been that Stoke have lost every match after playing in the Europa League during midweek. Playing against an average team, I expect to go against Stoke. Never the less, taking into account that their opponent for today is Bolton, I would be inclined to go with Stoke tonight.

FINAL VERDICT : STOKE LVL FT (Odds Available For Staking At MANSION)

*Note : All picks are by no means assured of the outcome, the final decisions lies within your own choice.

MATCH PREVIEW
Available HERE at Soccernet.com

Newcastle United are one of only two teams unbeaten in the Barclays Premier League while Everton have lost four of their last five.

Newcastle team news

Gabriel Obertan will miss out through illness.
The former Manchester United winger is sidelined by an infection and is likely to be replaced by Sylvain Marveaux as the Magpies attempt to maintain their unbeaten start to the Barclays Premier League campaign.
Cheik Tiote (knee) remains a doubt, while Shola Ameobi (hamstring) will be out for several weeks yet.

Everton team news

Marouane Fellaini is suspended after accruing five bookings this season.
However, fellow midfielder Royston Drenthe returns having served a one-match ban in last weekend's defeat at home to Manchester United.
Phil Neville (hamstring), Sylvain Distin and midfielder Tim Cahill, both carrying knocks, will all have late fitness tests.

Squads

Newcastle United: Krul, Elliot, Simpson, R Taylor, Santon, Ferguson, Coloccini, S Taylor, Perch, Cabaye, Gutierrez, Marveaux, Gosling, Guthrie, Ben Arfa, Abeid, Vuckic, Smith, Ba, Best, Lovenkrands, Sammy Ameobi.
Everton: Howard, Hibbert, Heitinga, Jagielka, Distin, Baines, Coleman, Drenthe, Bilyaletdinov, Cahill, Barkley, Osman, Saha, Vellios, Mucha, Neville, Mustafi, Stracqualursi, McFadden, Gueye.

SUMMARY

1. ANALYSIS :

The Magpies are undefeated this season and I don't see the trend coming to an end against a side such as Everton whom are rather unstable. After losing Arteta to Arsenal over the transfer window, Everton's midfield seemed to have severely weakened. The Magpies are also on the high with their current performance and looks set to continue their undefeated streak against Everton today.

2. ODDS ANALYSIS :

Opening odds for this match is Newcastle -0.25 FT (w99). As of time of writing the odds stands at Newcastle -0.25 FT (w-98), indicating punters are split on their decision to punt on which team.

Our statistically deduced odd is Everton Lvl FT (w87). Comparing this with the opening odds by bookmakers, we see that bookmakers are giving the advantage to Newcastle albeit not much.

3. CONCLUSION

The odds look tempting for many to take Everton due to the fishiness of an unbeaten team to give -0.25 FT to another much lower ranking team. But the current odds movement does not indicate that punters are staking heavily on Everton. Form wise Newcastle has the edge and although the odds are strange, our prediction method has selected the Magpies for the win tonight.
