So funny so many of these contest winners all try to go tout.
They build up make believe reputations on sports forums then go and get backed or sponsored in some contests somewhere (usually multiple entries) hit the lottery and then try and use that to jump start a tout career backed by the years of make believe reputation they got on the forums.
So winning a contest with zero gambling acumen required, adds some legitimacy to their internet personas. It is so laughable and sad at the same time.
But it shows how these guys are basically failures at anything legitimate and rely on the easy way out or other people to try and make money.
I bet sports year in and year out, and I made my money. I posted on the forums but kept the specifics unknown. Then when I hit my mark I quit. cashed out, and I wasnt even on the forums. now I have the next conquest up and running I have some time to goof around on the forums again.
It ultimately comes down to the type of person you are and your attitude. If you are a success you can be successful at anything. It is hardwired into your make up. If you are a pretender or wannabe you have to stick with what you know, and where you can con and fool people into thinking you are more than you really are. And that isnt just restricted to sports betting it covers all types of 'careers'.
But when guys go tout, at least publicly it is the ultimate admission they dont have any other qualities other than the ability to sell people shit and have them buy it.
