Sports Handicappers
A piece
of advice that all beginning bettors should take to
heart in looking to get started in the wild world of
sports betting is to find sports handicappers to learn
from. A lot of beginners start out thinking that they
know enough about sports and they don’t want to just
play someone else’s selections but be able to create
their own.
To those of you who feel this way, good for you,
but if you are getting your foot in the door and want to
learn as much as you can about sports betting, and
specifically choosing winners, why not spend a season
using a handicapping service to help you
learn, as well as make some money
to boot.

The
foundation here is, of course, to find a reputable
handicapper. We all know about the scamdicappers and
touts out there looking to take your money, promising to
hit 65% or even 70% winners. Stay away from these people.
Once they get your phone number, it’s all over. They
will call you constantly, and harass you into buying
their ever escalating expensive packages, which
coincidentally everyday they come up with a new “High
Roller Club” that is only for his VIP clients. These
people are salesman looking to take your money and don’t
know anything about picking winners. They employ many
scams and will stop at nothing to get you to sign up. If
these touts could actually hit 65 or 70% winners, do you
think they would really need your money? Absolutely not.
Plain and simple no one hits those percentages, and if
they could they could make ridiculous amounts of money
and wouldn’t need your $2,000 dollars. These folks are
in the business of scamming money. You can read
countless horror stories about them on the internet. I
figure its better avoiding these people from the get go,
rather than learning the hard way.
A true handicapper would charge a reasonable amount,
enough just to make it worth is while to share his
selections with the public, plus if they know what they
are talking about they get enough clients that even a
reasonable fee leaves them with a healthy bonus to their
sports betting incomes.
So reputable
sports handicappers, do they really exist? The
answer is yes. And quite a few exist actually. These are
your guys in the trenches, grinding out the profits and
winning consistently over the long haul. They don’t
claim to hit outrageous winning percentages. These guys
employ the proper money management techniques, hit
55-60% over the long haul, and in the end show a healthy
profit.
They will help you learn and develop your own
handicapping services, because in the end they know that
they will win enough that you will stay with them as
clients even after you develop skills of your own.
I recommend getting into contact with the capper and get
a feeling for what kind for person they are. Generally
good people do good things and you can get feel for what
kind of person you are dealing with by exchanging a few
emails. Try to come across a capper that is willing to
help you out with your own selections while giving you
some insight as to why he makes his plays. Ask the
handicapper going into it if you sign up for his
baseball package, would he be willing to help you out
with questions and feedback? Find someone who you can
trust and follow his selections for awhile, if you like
his style of betting lots of games, few games, a
play-of-the-day, or rare big play then try him out.
If his bet sizes change drastically, that may an
indicator that you should look elsewhere. After tracking
picks for a few weeks, send him an email with your
proposition. I will buy your package for the rest of the
season, if you agree to help me understand the
handicapping process better. If the guy is a good
person, he will agree and chances are that you will be
making some units following his plays AND learning from
him along the way, which is what you are after. Remember
for every one hundred handicappers, there are one
hundred different styles of handicapping, but with the
proper help and guidance you can be pointed in the right
direction and develop your own style after learning from
someone who is making his living betting on sports.
