We all know how it works .. Touts working as posters start a picks thread. He never ever mentions touts in his thread. This poster plays it cool, If the picks go sour in the thread he disappears and clever under a new name starts a new thread . Now If picks do well over time he starts to build a network of followers and gathers contacts, posters start to pimp him up saying you should charge , this and that and guy hints at times he might go tout. It's a sales plot. He then sets up a site or email thing where guys can contact him and pay a fee. He uses the forum as free advertising directing them how to get in on it. Of course they get destroyed and poor posters pay for the picks .he eventually tries same ploy again at a different site., so just touts using creative platforms to get business

If these guys were so good they would bet max bets and be rich

I can spot a tout wannabe a mile out, let's use El Stugato for instance (Let's Go Out) from last year.
Blantant tout wannabe, spamming the forums.
I pointed this out to the SBR brass several times, that he was dangerous and not in the best interest of SBR.
My pm's pretty much got ignored.
For weeks this guy touted the forum with false winnings, false records, false everything.

As recent as last week, there were three such types posting away.
If I take the time to report them, it's just going to be ignored again.
