Sports handicapper for picks

Louie T on this site used to be a big wig in vegas. but he's living back down south now. He'll sometimes share his wisdom

Tons of good cappers on twitter. Lots give out picks for free.

@BehindTheBets sells his picks for a lifetime fee. He donates the money to cancer research. It's pretty affordable.

I hit a 7 team cfb parlay last year and was 1 point away from hitting an 8 team nfl parlay

seriously though, i had excellent years in cfb, nfl, and nba. lost a fair amount on fricking cbb though, and it wasnt bad picks, it was bad allocation of funds. id win a lot of small plays and lose my biggest ones. wont do that this year, probably going to keep a set unit for basketball.

Save your money. 99.9575% are full of shite and sales people ripping you off.

DO NOT FALL FOR IT.

Just trust me on this. If you really know a sport, you are probably better than a "handicapper" selling picks. I have a buddy that bought picks from at least 100 different sources over ten years. I myself have bought picks from different services for years back when I used to bet on sports regularly (I don't anymore, I make a few bets a year and that is it).

I tracked over 8,000 picks from between 15-18 "professional handicappers" for a year and a half. I paid a few thousand for various packages (I was betting pretty big, like a million in total action over a year and a half or so). I meticulously tracked all the bastards on a spreadsheet for a long time across all sports for over a year. Every day.

Result, they are worthless. None of them hit over 55% on -110 games. Not a single one over those 500 days. And they were/are some the biggest names in the industry as well. Guys from covers, sbg, etc.

I believe 2 years ago I was at 72% for College and right at 50% for NFL. I hate betting the NFL

Rance is great.

Also, you need to look at @VegasRunner and @phillygodfather

There are also a ton of guys who post their own pics on twitter at no charge.

I can give a list later but have to leave for a meeting right now.

I built my CFB spreadsheets over the last 4 years.

2012: 56% (141 games)
2011: 57.1% (119 games)
2010: 57.9% (121 games)
2009: 63.2% (136 games)

303-214 (58.6%) over 4 years or $6760 betting to win 100 @ -110.

It isn't much, but it's +units.

rance from @behindthebets is as good as it comes.

Have you purchased his picks before? I was thinking about trying him out or a month just to check him out. His memberships are cheap

says the man himself! dg "the system" tiger is the cbb master, op

The MSB bet threads are a good start. There's a ton of good folks in there that know what they're doing. Not going to name names for fear of leaving someone off but several have already posted in this thread. I haven't really seen it up lately (it's mostly fb and bb related) but if it starts up again I can start posting my baseball picks - did alright in the first half, its been a weird year.

You need to sign up for Twitter. Like Bama said, there are folks on there posting solid free picks. @VegasRunner www.vegasrunner.com is a pay service that is somewhat steep but he is a good follow on Twitter. Really posts a lot of explanatory stuff and his free steam plays are generally money.

Here are some other good follows, some are sport specific or specialize in a handful of sports, some are pay but give a few free plays here and there and some are all free. Get on there and feel them out for a few weeks until you figure out who is good at what, etc.
