There may be as many as 1000 so called professional sports handicappers offering their picks online. However, most of them are scams and should be considered marketers rather than handicappers. Here are a few tips on selecting a legit sports service or to be more accurate who not to use.
Stay Away If:
The service makes claims of their selections being "locks" or any other guarantee that the play will win.
The service offers different levels of plays. For example if they offer "gold memberships" or "big rollers club".
The handicapper(s) are not monitored by an independent source or at the very least don't have all their previous picks listed on the site.
You may have seen other handicapping sites state that their selections are winning at a ridiculous high percentage of 70% or more. I can tell you right now that no one on this earth will win at that level over anything more than a sampling of game picks. A handicapper may have a stretch of game predictions that will win at that level, but he'll never be able to finish with a winning percentage that high over a whole season.
The top handicappers in the nation will hit over 60% in a good year and on an average year their winning picks will be in the 56 - 58 percent level.
Below we have listed one of the better capper services that have a proven track record for profitable selections and honest reporting of the handicapper's records.
