Recommendations
If you are not following Betaminic strategies already, then I really recommend getting into them.
#1 Follow the BSG Draw System. It is free for the first month.
#2 Follow the TennisBets. They have a high win rate and can be run with a small 25-unit bank. The tennis database is still free to access. I don’t know when that will change.
#3 Follow the 9 Low Drawdown strategies I follow. They seem like a solid system and can help balance out the system when BSG draws has a bad month.
#4 Follow Contend UD. Love it or hate it, this strategy has good results if followed long term, despite its volatility.
2, 3 & 4 can be run easily with manual betting since they don’t have a high volume of bets.
If you have Betfair, then you can automate them on Betfair. Otherwise, you can bet manually on any sportsbook.

1 Betting System results +42% increase on the bank in the last month
+42% increase on the bank in the last month excluding costs
+£325 increase on a 1,000 bank including costs
System performance
The BSG2ZeroZero 0-0 correct score tips had the best results over the month and together with the Betaminic Contend UD, helped the set to a +42% increase on the bank which is a great result.
How did each system do from Sep 1st or 13th to Oct 16th 2024?
My bot organization got a bit messy, so I can only show the data I am sure of. Please note that some of the bots have different start dates.
My mixed set of all 4 systems made a profit of +42%. BSG draws was the main driver of that.
I had also tried to run separate bots with separate banks to see how the systems did individually, but the BSG Draw bots only started on October 1st due to bot setting errors. For Oct 1st to 16th it shows a -10% loss, but it had done very well in the last 2 weeks of September which had helped the mixed set into decent profit.
The Low Drawdown set of 9 Betaminic strategies made a 9% increase on its own from Sep 1st to Oct 6th with Whitaker Staking, which is good to see. That was just 2.4 units on level stakes. But for the 1 month from Sep 13th to Oct 16th it made a -19% loss in my mixed set, so it must have had its good results in the first 2 eeks of September.
The Contend UD Betaminic strategy made a 11% increase on its own with Whitaker Staking. That was 7.8 units on level stakes. For the period covered by the mixed set, that was +16%.
The tennis bets had been flying in September, but suddenly went on the worst run they have ever had this week and ended up with -1.3% for Whitaker staking despite +1.9 units profit on level stakes, For the mixed set, that was a -51% loss.
Each month, different systems are winning and losing, so spreading risk by following multiple systems is important.

2 Staking Advice
I strongly recommend Whitaker Staking. LC version for aggressive capital builders and NLC for conservative income takers.
But please note that a Whitaker Bank risks ALL of the bank. If the bank is 1,000, then it will go down 50% at some point. Any bank allotted to a Whitaker Staking set must be 100% allotted to it. It cannot be shared with other banks. You can use lots of strategies in that one bank, but you cannot be running two 1k Whitaker banks with only 1k of actual money in your account. There are no “nominal” Whitaker banks, a Whitaker bank is all “working” capital. With previous levels takes banks, I did have nominal and working banks, but Whitaker staking is very capital efficient, so it is risking and using all the bank, all the time. If you run a 1k bank with 500 real capital, it is likely to wipe out your bank in a lowing run. So whatever bank you allot to a Whitaker Staking plan, it must be 100% reserved for it.
Staking and Multiple bot sets in BFBM
If you, like me, have multiple bot sets, some of which are running % banks and some are running level stakes. One option is to consider setting the % banks to “Use account funds as bank”. In this way, the Whitaker % bank will always be looking at your current available funds and, in theory, not bet more than it can handle. Having lots of 1 GBP test bots or lots of 100 GBP % banks on Whitaker staking can add up and that can affect account funds more than we think. For that reason, consider setting your main Whitaker % bank bots to “Use account funds as bank”.
Staking Analysis for Betaminic strategy “Banker???”
I did a staking analysis of Banker??? Using various taking methods. You can read that analysis here.
Again Whitaker LC Staking comes out on top with a +59% increase on bank in 2024 and a +369% increase Since Shared.
3 ***IMPORTANT*** Error found in Whitaker Staking rule for BFBM bot set users.
Someone has kindly informed me that there is an error in the staking “Odds staking ladder” table for my bot set.
Please change the “Percent of betting bank” figures for 3 of the entries to that as shown below.
I apologize for losses incurred from this error. It would only have affected bets placed at odds of 1.51, 1.52 and 1.59.
1.51 should be 3.93
1.52 should be 3.88
1.59 should be 3.59
You can fix the error manually or download my corrected set.
4 How to use TippingSports to send your manual selections to Bf Bot Manager
Some people want to send manual selections to their BFBM software. I made a video to show the relatively simple method I use. This means I can add selections easily from my phone when I am on the go or from a browser on my laptop without the need to go into my VPS or use the BFBM software itself. https://youtu.be/WtiwwC8z_2U?si=vQCBcTOczv3hT8Q7

5 Betfair alternatives, ApostasBF and Non-Betfair automation
ApostasBF
ApostasBF has now merged with Bet-Bra. Due to betting law changes in Brazil, the licence that betting companies need has changed there and it now costs much more to have and the costs involved have increased. This means ApostasBF has needed to combine with another sportsbook to stay active in Brazil since that is where most of its customers are. Existing international customers of ApostasBF an login and go through a simple process to transfer their account to Bet-Bra. Existing international customers can continue to use the Bet-Bra service as they used ApostasBF before. The sites are very similar. But Bet-Bra is not accepting any new international customers. So it is no longer an alternative to Betfair for international users who were not previously ApostasBF members. Automation may return via ATZbet to Bet-Bra in the future, but it will only be of use to existing ApostasBF users who have transferred to Bet-Bra. Existing ApostasBF users, if you have not done so yet, you should log in and complete the transfer process over to Bet-Bra.
Betfair alternatives and Non-Betfair automation
In the long term, in 2025, I am hoping a new Betfair white label with free automation via ATZbet will be re-launched from another country. Until then we just have to be patient. The only issue was the change to Brazilian betting laws, and not problems with the white label model itself.
Betfair alternatives
If you need a Betfair alternative right now, then the BetInAsia (betting agent), AsianConnect (betting agent), Smarkets (direct deposit), Matchbook (direct deposit) and BetDaq (direct deposit) remain the only alternatives I know and have used. Matchbook and BetDaq versions of the Bf Bot Manager software exit, but they cannot be linked with my betting systems or Betaminic strategies. You can, however, create automated bots yourself with the software.
6 Simple online alternatives to Bf Bot Manager
100% Online & Easy Bf Bot Manager Alternatives
BFBM is a fantastic tool, but I know that BFBM can be a bit complicated for some users. Some people don’t want to leave their PC on 24/7 or they don’t want to use a VPS. Others struggle with the importing and setup of bots. But there are 2 alternatives that need NO software downloads and NO VPS. They run online and need almost zero IT skills to setup. One of them you already know, but the other one will be new to you. TippingSports and SigaTrader. SigaTrader has been around for years and actually was the forerunner to ApostasBF. Now ApostasBF has been absorbed by Bet-Bra. SigaTrader has made a comeback. It has been approved by Betfair as an official 3rd party service for automated betting on the Betfair exchange. The key point to understand is that while TippingSports places bets based on tips from tipsters, SigaTrader is using a CopyTrade method where you copy the same bet at the same price at the same time that the tipster does on Betfair. This means you are much more likely to get similar results. Most importantly, it allows Whitaker Staking, not just level stakes. A comparison chart is below.
With betting, I really, really recommend you to play with Betaminic’s database and to play with the Bf Bot Manager, to learn how to use them, and to take control of your own betting so you can go run betting systems with your eyes fully open to the risks you are taking and for what possible rewards if things go to plan.
But if you don’t have the time, or keep messing up with the technical side of things, or just don’t seem to be getting the same results as me, then you use SigaTrader’s CopyTrade function and my bot will place bets on your Betfair account for you with Whitaker Staking.
SigaTrader costs 10 USD per month paid to the SigaTrader site.
BSG TennisBets costs 30 GBP per month, but is free to Betaminic users with a positive pick balance. Just forward me your last proof of purchase email. (21 GBP per month with a 12-month subscription)
The BSG Draw System is 100 GBP per month (70 GBP per month with a 12-month subscription)
Betaminic’s Low Drawdown 9 costs 115 EUR per month (80 EUR per month with a 12-month subscription)
Betaminic’s Contend UD costs 27 EUR per month (19 EUR per month with a 12-month subscription)
How much to copy Tom’s Full System?
Paying monthly, all 4 systems + SigaTrader would be 10 USD (7.70 GBP) + 100 GBP + 142 EUR (118 GBP) = 225.7 GBP per month.
With a 2,000 GBP bank, over 6 months, with Whitaker LC Staking, I would aim to cover those costs and make meaningful profit. (225.7 x 6 months = 1,354 GBP total costs) But I make no promises for how much it will make. Gambling is gambling. But with SigaTrader, you would be betting on exactly the same things I am, at the same time, at the same prices, with the same staking plan.
7 How to use SigaTrader
2
It will take you to the Betfair site. You log in and then it takes you back to sigatrader. You need to login using your Betfair details. This is like logging into any 3rd party Betfair approved software like Bf Bot Manger or TippingSports. You login with your Betfair details.
3
In SigaTrader, you will see the familiar ATZbet mark. This service is powered by the same ATZbet CopyTrade software that was used in ApostasBF.
You can select the language on the top right and change to English.
4
If you want to follow me with SigaTrader, then you need to:
- Email me at bettingsystemsguide@gmail.com
- Tell me your user number. It will be on the top right of your SigaTrader screen.
I will then add my bots to your SigaTrader ATZbet account.
5 Press the right arrow on your keyboard to scroll across to the EDIT button for each bot. For Whitaker Staking 1. Set the bank size that you want Whitaker NLC Staking to apply its percentages to. 2. Make sure “Minimum odds” is left as “0”. Otherwise Whitaker Staking % will not be applied. |
6
For Level Stakes
1. Set the maximum and minimum Stake to the same number. E.g. If both are set to 20, then the level stake will be 20 for every bet.
7
Set the bots to ACTIVE when you want them to start.
That’s it!
Now you can switch off your PC, and the bots will run online without you.
They will bet when my bots bet.
8 Detailed Results
Bot Set Screenshots; Whitaker Staking Set
I will increase my bank to 2k and restart the bots to make the results easier to compare. Doing the -666 adjustment each time is messy.
Single System Screenshots
Low Drawdown Set of 9
The above bot shows results from placing £100 level stakes bets on each selection. My ELSx4 analysis based on its long-term average win rate suggests a 50-unit bank would be needed, so that would be a £5,000 bank. So since September 1st it would have made +2.48 units profit or 4.96% of the allotted bank.
If that same £5,000 bank was used with Whitaker LC staking, then it would have increased the bank +9.4%, which is a more efficient use of the bank.
I have a £100 level stakes set of the LD9 running from Jan 18th 2024. It is on +18.7 units profit. With £100 bets, that is more than enough to cover costs.
Bot 02 Away weak favourite is performing worst, but that is just over the last 178 bets which is a very small amount of data. I plan to follow it for 1000 bets to give the best chance for the trend to express itself.
Contend UD
The above bot shows results from placing £100 level stakes bets on each selection. My ELSx4 analysis based on its long-term average win rate suggests a 80-unit bank would be needed, so that would be a £8,000 bank. So since September 10th it would have made +7.8 units profit or 9.7% of the allotted bank.
If that same £8,000 bank was used with Whitaker LC staking, then it would have increased the bank +11.1%, which is a more efficient use of the bank.
I have a £100 level stakes set of Contend UD running from Jan 18th 2024. It is on +11.8 units profit. With £100 bets, that is more than enough to cover costs.
Tennis Bets
The above bot shows results from placing £100 level stakes bets on each selection. My ELSx4 analysis based on its long-term average win rate suggests a 25-unit bank would be needed, so that would be a £2,500 bank. So since September 10th it would have made +1.8 units profit or 7.56% of the allotted bank.
If that same £2,500 bank was used with Whitaker LC staking, then it would have decreased the bank -1.39%. While that is a worse performance than level stakes, this is after a particularly disastrous recent run of -10 units. The ELSx4 is 22 units, so this is just over 2 expected losing runs in succession. The bank is able to withstand 4 such losing runs on level stakes.
We had 10 losers in a row over a few days.
All of these were on the WTA Osaka games. These bets were based on 1 tournament worth of historical data. It is easy to say that this is too little data, but this is the method I have been using so far. I have no minimum levels for data in this tennis system. This recent loss could be an argument to include a 2-3 tournament minimum requirement for data to be allowed.
For example, the ATP Beijing tournament data has 7 years of data. I guess this since it has 7 finals worth of data.
When I have multiple tournaments to select from, I try to choose 1st round games sine they often have the most data. But when there have not been selections for a few days, then I have chosen tournaments like WTA Osaka that have less data.
I think, in the future, I will try to go for a 3-tournament minimum requirement of data,
After 440 bets, the ROI is down to 4.3% (and that is after a 4% commission has been taken out).
440 bets worth of data us still VERY SMALL, which means we should still treat this system with caution. It had an amazing run but a big loss last week. It is by no means a perfect system. (But still better than a lot of things around.)
Long term BFBM bot data
BSG Draws
My original BSG1 draw system test bots are still in profit for pre-match bets, but the in-play bots have actually gone negative now and I have turned them off. 4,000 bets is enough to prove that it is not profitable in-play. This trend is a low scoring draw trend.
The pre-match draw bot ROI has gone down to
5.90% ROI Bot 1 opposite odds draw
1.69% ROI Bot 2 current odds draw
But the 0-0 correct score bot is going very strong, even in this comparably negative period.
7.89% ROI Bot 6 current odds 0-0 FT correct score
4.33% ROI Bot 7.1 current odds HT Under 0.5 goals bet
Bot 6 has 2,649 bets since Feb 19th 2024. I think this is the best expression of the BSG1 draw trend at the moment,
My newer BSG2 trend set has shown some interesting results. While its pre-match and in-play draw bets have never shown profit, its pre-match 0-0 correct score bot has done better than the BSG1 0-0 correct score bot.
33.43% ROI Bot 6 current odds 0-0 FT correct score
4.2% ROI Bot 7.1 current odds HT Under 0.5 goals bet
Bot 6 has 1,282 bets since July 23rd 2024. So it has a higher volume of bets per month than BSG1 selections. The 33% ROI is unsustainably high in my mind, but it seems to be a clear trend of value. This is all achieved with a 9.91% win rate. For reference, the 0-0 scoreline win rate from ALL Betfair football matches is 8% from the last 7,000 matches.
Currently I have only been using the Bot 7.1 current odds HT Under 0.5 goals bet bot for the BSG1 trend, but based on current data, I may also add in the BSG2 trend bot as well. It is not up to 1,000 bets yet, so I will not publicly recommend it, but in private I may use it with my main set. They both show 4% ROI. But there are also strong arguments for using nether since the 0-0 FT bot is the best bot for both trends. The final decision is up to you based on this data.
