Feedback from recent courses in 2009

"I would like to thank you for your help yesterday. Whilst I like to think I have an extensive knowledge of horse racing and betting I am happy to admit there were more than a few “light bulb” moments for me yesterday. It felt really good today to actually have a fair idea of what was likely to happen in most of the markets. That is preferable to hoping something is going to happen, that’s for sure.  When I work out how to capture and copy the Betfair p and l screen I will happily send it over to you in an email. If you like you can let the guys on the course yesterday know how I’ve got on today. Hopefully some of them will have had as much if not more success than me today. If not then at least they’ll be aware that it can be done by a novice and not just by experts like you!"

"Just thought i'd drop you a quick email to say thanks for the course today. It was great to listen and learn to all the knowledge you have. As i was listening lightbulbs were constantly going off in my head as to where i was going wrong and the ways i could do things better. I was very impressed with the way you not only gave us the information but also showed us practical examples of how to do the different trades successfully. It was worth every penny i paid for the course."

"Just wanted to say a big thank you to Peter if you'd be kind enough to relay on my regards and best wishes.  I really cannot believe the depth and content that was delivered for the premium charged for Peter's time.  I have been on the odd financial courses previously and their content was inferior by far and cost into the thousands.  Needless to say there were more than a few eureka moments!!"

"Your Master Class was of excellent value in all respects. I feel that the Strategies book has been handed down like a Tablet and inscribed on the cover should be the 11th Commandment - 'Thou Shalt Succeed'. Many thanks for passing on your pearls of wisdom and experience, and letting us into the Winners Circle."

"We are now back in Turkey and I wanted to tell you what a pleasant time we had at the course. The big risk in such higher-priced courses, especially if you are traveling to another country for it, is being disappointed and I can happily say this was certainly no disappointment. You did much more than you were required to and we could see you were genuinely interested in teaching the ropes. We'll keep you posted on what's happening on all fronts but I think we will look fondly back to the day we were your students." - Aydin from Turkey

"What an excellent and particularly eye opening presentation today. You were extremely informative, listened attentively to every question and the whole day exceeded my expectations." - Mark from Barnsley

"Thanks for the excellent course on Monday. My win rate has increased to around 70% and the markets look so different, and predictable than before the course." - Barry from Kent

"Just a note to say thank you for the course that I attended on Monday.  First of all, it was a pleasure to meet you and be in your company for a whole day!  Especially, I would like to thank you for sharing your hard-earned knowledge and your enthusiasm with us.  The course content was ideal for me and it left me on a real high - which I am sure everyone else felt too.  So very many heartfelt thanks for all that ." - Edward from Devon

"I attended your course yesterday. While  I was confident it would be useful it turned out to be ten times better than I expected.  The use of the software was low key with the real focus on the market analysis  and the selection of the right trading strategies. As the day progressed the information gradually unfolded as in a good suspense thriller.  You have clearly mastered how to script and deliver a powerful ,entertaining  and highly informative seminar. Furthermore the class warmed to you at the informal lunchtime discussions. Only one word sums it up - Brilliant." - Thomas from London

"Just a short e-mail to thank you for your efforts yesterday.  I left knowing that you had given me the tools to be a successful trader. It was great to meet someone who can "walk the walk" as well as "talk the talk" - Bill from Glasgow

"Great to meet you, you have an impressive product but even more impressive is your clear statistical knowledge of the markets" - James from Manchester

"I just wanted to thank you for being so generous with your time and providing an excellent course yesterday. The course highlighted to me that I may have been barking up the wrong tree with some of my strategies and my dogged attempts to predict price movements. It was £400 well spent as I'd have lost thousands on the betting exchanges just to learn a fraction of what I got from the course. I'd be happy for you to use any part of this email as a testimonial." - Leighton from Newport

"I just wanted to Thank you for your inspiring course last Monday. I realised I was a bit of a 'one trick pony' during the day and am now looking forward to putting these other strategies in to place." - Tim from London

"Course was amazing it lived up to my expectation which was quite high" - Terry from Essex

"Just a quick note to thank you for the course last Monday, it was and will continue to be very helpful.   Although I have read the (Bet Angel) 'Essential Guide' from cover to cover and watched the videos several times there is nothing like seeing someone demo the software live and of course the extra information you gave out will be invaluable." - Peter from Spain

"Just a quick mail to thank you for a thoroughly enjoyable and interesting course on Monday.   Yesterday was my first day avoiding any sort of gambling and sticking primarily to trading. I had a starting pot of £200 and hope to make it grow and grow. I traded 10 races and also the under/over 2.5 odds of Arsenal vs Hull last night and am now £25 in profit. Small amounts at the moment but with a lot more practice then over a couple of months or so I hope to turn that in to greater profits and keep going. Essentially would be great to earn a full time living from this :)   Thanks again for a brilliant course on Monday." - Andy from Essex

"Just to say thanks for an excellent day and highlighting for me many possibilities.   I pride myself on having a reasonable knowledge of both Bet Angel and Trading, but it is quite obvious that I actually new little at all that was important. Although I forgot to bring my questions with me I have reviewed them this afternoon and I am pleased to say that every single one of them was addressed in you presentation, along with plenty of others that I should have thought of anyway. I mentioned a few times during the afternoon about a trading friend of mine and I have told him if he is serious about trading then he must attend your seminar so hopefully he will.   Once again, thank you for a very informative, practical and extremely interesting day. I will have no hesitation in recommending your course to other potential traders. " - Trader gray

Feedback from recent courses at the end of 2008

"Just a quick note to say thank you for having me on your course. I learnt a lot from it, and it was a real pleasure to learn from someone as genuine as yourself, and not just another shark looking to sell some silly ideas to make a quick buck! On that point, when i looked at your course notes, i was pleasantly shocked to see the detail in them! When you said 160 pages, you really meant it! Fantastic! " - Colin from Co.Armagh

"Just wanted to send you a quick email to thank you for the very informative course on Monday. I thought the information provided was invaluable and have already started to see where different strategies can be implemented and where I was going wrong in others. Its very rare to find someone with the knowledge to profit from this business and even rarer to find someone willing to share this information. " - Kevin from Cranfield

"I'd like to thank you for an exceptional course yesterday and also the excellent course material, probably the best £400 I've ever spent. " - Graham from Bath

"Just a quick message to say thanks for the excellent seminar on Monday. I've been busy scalpling to smallish stakes all week and have only had one losing trade." - Dave from London

"Just a short note to say how much I enjoyed and appreciated your Betting Exchange Course yesterday.   Not only was it full of highly relevant and enlightening information, but I found the manner in which you presented the material to be both enthusing and motivating.  Meeting and hearing from an Icon of the trading world was just what I needed ..... I feel that I now have a better understanding of the strategies and tools, together with the pitfalls to be avoided, to maintain a positive approach as I move forward.    Once again thank you for sharing your knowledge, and best wishes for the future." - Doug from Poole

"What can I say, a brilliant course, I just wish I could have attended an earlier one! Peter, you are a true gent and I cannot express how much yesterday meant to me. For someone to stand up and share this knowledge shows their true character – outstanding."

"Yesterday was an exceptional day and your training far exceeded what I had expected from the day. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting you and the trading methods you taught were a complete revelation. I would recommend the course to anybody who is serious about becoming a better Betfair trader. I will certainly heed your advice about the need for practice and more practice."

"May I say your training did help me tenfold, I think the best thing i got from it was confidence which i am very thankful for"

"I think trading really was what I was looking for in the betting exchange and I am trading with lot more confidence and fun now. Got to say … not a single day regret for joining the course!"

"Now to my trading this week. What can I say? I am totally flabbergasted!!! So with compounding, I've gone from £1 per tick to £1.59, generated £127 profits and with only three races lost! I just can't believe it! I'm over the moon! Thank you so very much!"

"Well I did Peters course on Monday and found it excellent. Really worth the ££. He trades totally different to what I expected he would. Yes I learned a tonne. I really think any rookie out there who wants to make a living from this game, should go and do his course. You need to treat this like a business, and invest money in Education, software, and a decent PC. Also Peter is an excellent and entertaining speaker. He really keeps to the point but injects some great wit every now and again. He also must have the strongest bladder in the UK, cos he didnt go to the Loo once between 9.30 and 6.30 pm. (I went 2 or 3 times...loads of good coffee)"

"Just a quick note to say many, many thanks for yesterday's course, which I found extremely interesting and thoroughly enjoyable. Your insights into the various markets and strategies to make money from them was just what I was looking for."

"Thanks very much for a fascinating day on Monday. I was particularly impressed by your willingness to keep going into the evening which was caused by the number of questions you fielded throughout the day."

"Thanks for the course yesterday. I thought it was fantastic and really gave me a better insight into trading. Just read through the notes and they are excellent."

"I would like to thank you very much for your fantastic presentation last week, it certainly opened my eyes. As a previous (conventional) style punter I find a lot of things on Betfair a bit strange, that is until last week, ......... I feel most of the groundwork which I've been working at has just been handed to me on a silver saucer!!"

"Once again I would like to congratulate you for your excellent presentation about "Profitable Betting Exchange strategies". Your betting method is first class and, together with the brilliant Bet Angel make a synergistic impact on the ever demanding betting exchanges of today. I thoroughly recommend your betting presentation package to anyone."

"Just wanted to drop you a line and say thank you for a great day on Friday in Coventry. I found the day very informative. It was a pleasure to listen to somebody who is as professional and knowledgeable as yourself. The day has made me re-assess how I intend to move forward with my exchange betting. "

"Just had to email you. I can't contain my excitement. The difference between my previous efforts at betting with those since I attended your course is nothing short of unbelievable. After just five days of trading I am showing a profit of 168%. God knows where this will end up in a few weeks, months or years time. The mind boggles at the prospect. I want to thank you not only for the course but also for the support you have provided since. I am very grateful. "

"Thank you for a super course and a very professionally run day - the best compliment I can pay you is to say that those who were not there missed out on the best money you could spend. Total of 9 races - 7 in profit, 1 breakeven and 1 loss".

"Later… Have now done 3 days using the theories. Started with a pot of £100 which I have managed to turn into £191 !!!!! "

"Thought I'd state how brilliant I thought the course was last Friday. Your enthusiasm and willingness to share your knowledge was evident throughout the very long day."

"Many thanks for your superb presentation last week. It was truly "edge of the seat" stuff. I was literally blown away by how you can use your various strategies to profit from Betfair. At times it was going over my head but now that I've had an opportunity to digest your course notes my understanding has become a lot clearer. "

"I can certainly attest for the course - first chance today to try things out and a handy 75% return, even with a few mistakes thrown in. While one swallow doesn't make a summer, the techniques are undoubtedly sound!"

"Just a big thanks to you for you exciting and stimulating course, well worth every penny."

"Just like to say how great I thought the course was on Friday. Already had a very successful day and having a good day today! Even with being a bit slow I managed to make a decent profit yesterday which really should have been even better. "

"After 4 days, I've doubled my money. 101% to be precise. Did well on the horses today but even better on the football and rugby"
