Win Detector is a brand new horse racing tipster service that is operated by one Del McMichael. He claims that by following his betting advice you can expect to see a six-figure income.
Introduction to Win Detector
One of the single most important things, if we’re all really honest, when it comes to betting is making money. If you aren’t making money, I feel like it really bets the question of why you’re betting? That doesn’t mean that there aren’t other reasons for betting. But I don’t think I’ve ever met anybody in this industry who is completely fine with spaffing their cash up the wall. But how much is enough? I think most people are happy with quite moderate returns, which begs the question why I see so many tipsters promising insane profits.
Anyway, this brings me to todays review subject, Win Detector. A service that sells itself almost entirely off the back of some truly incredible profits. I don’t normally tend to do this, but I want to highlight straightaway exactly why this is important. You see, Del McMichael is claiming that “you can make as much as £200,000 in a single year from online betting” with his system. That is a truly wild claim for any tipster service. And the truth is that things like this are always interesting to me because just 10% of that would be a good result.
Here’s the thing though. I’m not entirely convinced about Win Detector. There are some absolutely outrageous claims made in the sales material. Claims that are almost definitely not true. And of course, once you start to cast reasonable doubt on one thing… well, it’s not exactly a huge hop skip and jump to casting doubt on everything else. Adding to this is the fact that Del McMichael is really quite sketchy on details. Sure, he claims to have justification for this, but it seems equally as likely that this is all just a bit… well, off. So, let’s get into it.
What Does Win Detector Offer?
One of the things that stands out to me about Win Detector is the marketing and what is on offer. On the surface of things, this is a very straight forward tipster service. But it is so much more than this. There are seemingly a lot of moving parts going on in the background, and if Del McMichael is to believed it is both something truly incredible, and also incredibly fatally flawed.
But before I get into all of that other stuff, let’s start with something simple. Let’s address Win Detector as a tipster service. After all, the main reason that we’re here is to talk about betting. Now, as you might expect, this is about as basic an operation as you could expect to see. This applies to almost everything from the bets that you are placing to the way Del McMichael manages the service, and more.
As is typical for pretty much any tipster service in this day and age, selections are issued directly via email. All that we are told you have to do with Win Detector is place the bets and make money. I do however find this gross oversimplification incredibly dubious. Not least of which is because the emails that you receive don’t actually contain huge amounts of information or insight.
Sure, you get the details you need to know what you are betting on. But it really is incredibly minimal. Del McMichael misses out a lot of basic stuff that I’ve seen plenty of other genuine tipster services deliver. This immediately acts as a red flag for Win Detector, but it also adds some complications in terms of what you need to do to make the most out of this.
Firstly, I would 100% recommend using an odds comparison site. Whilst this is the kind of thing that I typically recommend anyway, I think it applies doubly so here. It is really quite important in my mind to ensure that you’re getting the most you can out of a service. And with Win Detector that is what you need to do. Because the advice that Del McMichael give is something that you will probably struggle with achieving.
Whilst we’re talking about all of this, let’s talk about the odds that you can get. Most of the time, Win Detector ends up dealing with very middling odds. This is something that seems to be ultimately down to design (a point I want to pick up later), but irrespective of the why, you need to be ensuring that every win you do hit is as profitable as possible. Because I don’t believe that you will win nearly as often as Del McMichael claims.
Moving on from the odds, from what I have seen, you are exclusively dealing with straight win bets. In and of itself, that doesn’t have to be a problem. Do I think that there may be marginally more in real terms to betting each way… possibly. But the fact is that Del McMichael doesn’t say that is how you should follow Win Detector, and that is how I will ultimately judge this.
Something that is glaringly missing is advice on stakes and a betting bank. Del McMichael doesn’t seem to provide this, and it is a huge point of concern. This is basic stuff. For what it’s worth, this is probably something that warrants low stakes and a bloody big betting bank. The truth is that whilst you might only be placing a small handful of bets, I ultimately foresee quite significant drawdown with Win Detector.
Of course, none of that should be a problem. One of the more interesting claims about Win Detector (aside from the financial ones) is Del McMichael saying that you can expect to win around 87% of the time. That is just an absolutely ludicrous number to attain and maintain. For context, even a good laying system can be lower than this. And adding to these concerns is the simple fact that none of it is substantiated anywhere.
How Does Win Detector Work?
When it comes to talking about how Win Detector works, there is a strong focus on a narrative rather than providing any information that is actually… you know, helpful or factual. That is yet another massive red flag. It does however at least make for an entertaining read. And if I’m really fair to Del McMichael, he does talk at least a little bit about what the service is based on. Although, to cut a long story short, it basically boils down to “AI”.
You see, we are told that the AI software behind Win Detector is “funded by the top dogs and developed by the best of the best” (more on this later). Del McMichael talks about how this software is going to be like “these ‘alt coins’” and that “only a few ‘neck beards’ know about this”. So, how does an “old school punter” get onboard with this seemingly cutting edge betting marvel? Well, as it happens, his son conveniently was hired by the team as a junior coder.
There is talk from here about how the software has the potential to remove a margin of error with betting. That his son had to sign a strict NDA. That he couldn’t even “tell his old dad”. Which of course begs the question as to how exactly these selections are making their way to Del McMichael, and how he has been able to build a tipster service in the form of Win Detector based around this. Especially since “anyone can join this private members club”.
You will note that outside of the vague notion that AI is somehow absolutely destroying the betting industry, we aren’t really told anything about how Win Detector works. Nor is there really any evidence backing anything up. There is no insight, no proofing… about the closest we come to evidence are some questionable testimonials. Really, pretty much everything involves taking the word of somebody on a number of claims that just seem to be incredibly unlikely.
What is the Initial Investment?
So, how much will it set you back for access to this “exclusive members club”? You know… the one that Del McMichael’s own son can’t tell him about. Despite him advertising it on the internet as a tipster service… Well, you have to demonstrate your commitment. Which means making a small contribution of £29.99 plus VAT. For this, you get access to Win Detector for life.
Something that is worth noting is that Win Detector does come with a full 60 day money back guarantee. Whilst there isn’t much that I feel I can reasonably credit Del McMichael with, he does actually mention this in the sales material. This is all also backed up by Clickbank which means that in theory, you shouldn’t have too much trouble claiming this if required.
What is the Rate of Return?
Obviously the headlining number for Win Detector is that “Ordinary Punters are Making up to £200,000 Per Year!”. This is a hell of a claim. Moving through the sales material, we are then provided with a screenshot of a betting account with £15,220.24 in it (supposedly made in just a month), a claim that punters are making £12,00 – £17,000 per month, and testimonials that talk about making £2,000 in just a couple of days.
Here’s the thing with all of this. For all of Del McMichael’s claims about how Win Detector is performing, there simply isn’t any evidence that it is actually doing that. The testimonials have seemingly been taken from Reddit, except the user names don’t check out. There is of course a highly questionable screenshot of a betting account, but that is about it.
Adding to this, there is also the fact that all of these numbers are in pounds and pence. Of course, it makes it much easier for Del McMichael to sell Win Detector. Unfortunately, it also means that there is no real context for what these numbers amount to. You could be looking at 20,000 points to £10 stakes, or 200 points to £1,000 stakes. That context is incredibly important though.
Conclusion for Win Detector
There are some truly ridiculous claims that are made in terms of what you can expect from Win Detector. Not just in terms of the income potential (although that is arguably the most transparently ludicrous), but much of what Del McMichael has to say in terms of the origins of all of this, as well as what the future potential is.
Because, let’s for a minute, just put aside the fact that this is an incredibly questionable service that provides absolutely no evidence backing up the claims. Let’s just overlook the fact that the income potential effectively means absolutely nothing. And let’s pretend that there is some credibility to how Del McMichael is saying Win Detector all works (which by the way, I categorically wouldn’t recommend doing). Where does it go?
You see, what we have here is a piece of experimental software that Del McMichael insinuates very strongly that both Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos have invested in. That it is somehow capable of being this incredible drain on bookies to the point where he speculates that Win Detector may end up with a 100% strike rate. At which point of course, bookies would just close down and the whole betting industry collapses. But let’s look smaller picture than even that.
It would appear that Del McMichael is getting the tips from his son. Or he’s marketing the group? This isn’t ever really made clear. But the point is that he explicitly states “As a part of my son’s employment contract, he was required to sign a strict NDA. If he whispers so much as a word, even to me, his old dad, he will be sued to bankruptcy”. So what happens if it gets out that his son is providing these tips? Inevitably, Win Detector gets closed down.
But honestly, that is all just bad marketing. I don’t think you really have to worry about all of that because the truth is that I don’t believe a word of it. As far as I’m concerned, Win Detector is just BS through and through. There is a very flawed and fanciful story that has no real backing, and for buying into that, you get access to a very basic and subpar tipster service.
It isn’t very often that I get to look at a tipster service that is just one giant red flag entirely in and of itself. But that is what you’re facing with Win Detector. The blunt truth is that I simply can’t really find a reason to recommend this at all. About the best feature that is realistically on offer here is the money back guarantee, and that isn’t even down to Del McMichael. This really is one to give a very wide berth to.
