LOL.  Exactly how many professional sports bettors who make a very good living do you know?  Personally that is. Better yet? How many financially successful (meaning independent) do you know personally?  Point is...if you knew anything about the creative arts (making your own money from scratch), youd know that most of us are young (im only 30). And the amount of money we make grants us so much free time to do whatever we want.  In other words?  Our time is not committed to any one thing consistently like your average person (9-5er).  A middle class person is a slave to time.   A truly financially successful person?  Has so much free time, that there is no such thing as "wasting time".

Youre not seriously defending touts are you?? -_-  

You have no way of knowing the outcome of any given wager or group of wagers.  All you can hope for is an edge. Monitoring sites?  Cmon now! A random person can do well for FIVE years and then do sh*tty the next five years.  It happens all the time!  And touts know this.  They are deceptive and take advantage of the mathematically ignorant! (Which is the general public).  The only thing consistent and dependable for a tout is the subscription fees they get from the subscribers they suckered in by agressively campaigning their past results!  Which anyone mathematically inclined knows, will more than likely NOT maintain itself over the long run/future.  I have been betting for many years. And have made and still make thousands a week. I would be deceiving everyone if i started selling picks using my past history as a sales tactic!  As sucessful as ive been even i know that things CAN still go sour.  The chances are low...but it can still happen. Its math. Its odds. Now how could i sell my picks knowing this???  Touts dont care. They sell their picks anyway!  Knowing mathematically things CAN and WILL change!   Stay away from touts!

I am not seriously trying to defend anyone.  What I am trying to say is I think it is also wrong to come on here and say that everybody could do as good or better on their own.  You appear to be very good at it, great.  But many people aren't good at it and I don't care if they spend lots of time doing it they may never be any good at it. So IMO you are making a wrongful assumption if you think every person out there is better off by not using a tout service.

I have an amazing job I bust my a$$ with and I'll cap games at night or during any down time I have. Usually look at stuff for a few hours and I've got a nice record to show for it. I don't blame anyone for going tout....if that's what they are good at, so be it. I do it for fun and don't need the hassle of the extra pressure.

Had a question for you GCY via pm when you have time.

Thanks

But if your picks are truly that solid then you would ever go tout, the certainty of income would come from the "guaranteed winners" they charge for.

I hope noone ever pays for picks, it truly is a scam, the tout doesn't have your best interest in mind but there own, if you lose they still make money, and if their picks are worth paying for then why sell them when they can win an unlimited amount of money playing their own picks?

this statement right here explains everything bout people going tout. you are actually buying his time and he doesn't guarantee you anything. I will never pay for picks as I know what win percentage they have. again, if they are that good they should be maxing profit on the picks. everyone has 'runs' an 'hot streaks' this is when most get that confidence and want to start charging.  I know exactly how much time is involved in capping as I do not work from dec to march so I involve my time in reading watching film and watching lines at 6 different books amoung other things. I don't even wager when I  go  back to work.

I don't believe the touts care about winning the pick as much as getting the sale. no risk after you get that payment. but hey..what do I know..  gl all ryno
