I know I'm going to get hammered for this post but I need help even though I already know the answer. The weekend of 9/10 I lost almost half my bankroll, high 5 figures. I called a tout I used last season for a few games and he went 5-2 but the cost was too high. So this past Friday I send him $10k for a huge play Saturday. Which was Central Michigan -5 over Virginia. Needless to say it lost. Sunday he gave me Green Bay -6.5 but I took the over 47.5 instead. Then I hit the Bears over 45 Sunday night and Falcons over 54 last night on my own. Now he calls and says if I send him $30k he has 2 college games and 1 nfl game this weekend. He says if I don't make $150k he will make up the difference himself. His 'source' is a smaller sportsbook director in Vegas. So let me have it....

Well hell, if he promises to make up the difference, why not? Not like he'd renege, right?

30k for some picks? Lol... run.Comment -
if his "source" is a "smaller sportsbook director in Vegas" then he would not
already know he "has" 2 college and 1 NFL games this coming week.
it's just not how a sportsbook director would tip anyone.
bearing in mind today is only Tuesday, if his source was legit, they would not
tip him this early in the week, without enough action coming in, to say ahead
that 2 college and 1 nfl is already the info... hence, he's a scammer.Comment -

Exactly what I was thinking. As long as I've been gambling I just can't seem to get it out of my head that these guys know something I don't. Thanks for all the helpOriginally posted by SnowballComment -

if you are serious please stop, you know just as much as them pick your own gamesComment -
You're debating sending him 30k????? After losing how much already?????
You said you already knew the answer but I'll spell out for you what I'd do anyway...
Instead of betting "high 5 figures" or even 5 figures at all, drop your unit size wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy down. And if you can't, seek some help so you can quit gambling altogether.
I honestly wish I could dropkick your tout and every other one - and especially the wannabes who win two weeks of picks here and decide to be the next best tout before scamming money and disappearing when they go 0-30.
Seriously stay away from those fukkers. There is no legit one xoComment -
My guy is a documented 11-3 in the NFL the 1st 3 weeks so far and although he's expensive (at least I thought he was until I saw your post), I'd be happy to sell you his picks for $5K for the entire season. Not just the picks either, but full page details as to why, the stats, etc. $10K per pick, LOLComment -
Heck I send u my plays for only 29KComment -
be careful if he goes by two same initials.Comment -
Wow. The best service in the business only charges $2,500 for a whole season.
I don't think there is anything wrong with getting piciks from a tout although they will probably not help much. But they only cost about $1,000 for a season.
Since you will probably be doing it again, here are a few that will give you a chance: Right Angle Sports, Maddux, Arlon Sports, Doctor Bob, Wunderdog and Ed Feng (Power Rank).Comment -
Deal. Pm'd you my cc info.Originally posted by BostongamblerComment -
Ok got it thanks. Oh, and that charge for a Rolex was already on there.Comment -
No way I'm doing it. I just hit one of those rough patches and got suckered. Got most of my losses back on the last 3 plays and realised I just need to calm down and lower my wagers. I guess I was curious if anyone else has ever had a similar experience. The tout is on the radio on the weekends.Comment -

Come talk to us when he has a 2-10 run in the middle of the season and you lose everything.Originally posted by sshz
KB, touts charging thousands for a pick they probably threw a coin up in the air on? Dumbest fukin thing I have ever heard.
Touts might start hot and that's what drags your ass in. Then when it goes south guaranteed anything they told you won't mean shit because in reality they don't owe you shit in the end. Either quit gambling or bet less until you figure it out on your own.Comment -
What kind of a fukkin tout asks 10k per pick? No pick is worth that much, unless it's a genuine fixed match.
If I had a 50k roll I would make 300k in a year.Comment -
A tout that charges by the pick with no long term strategy will almost get you broke. After you pay that hefty some for the pick you already lose value on the game because of the cost of the pick. Beside most of these single game touts sell one pick to one person and the opposite or another pick to other person so they guaranteed to get one of the sucker to pay again. Don't waste money paying for touts. If you must stick to reputable ones that has a viable money management and a long term plan. There aren't many out there. Best i know are RAS and Bettingresource (their wise-guy 10 unit picks). But RAS hasn't been bettable over the past few years since he is hammering mostly division two games and 2nd half bets where the lines are way too volatile and the limits are petty.Originally posted by krb8
A tout that make promises like "make of the difference himself" is 100% scam tout. He sounds just like the Steve Stevens scammer from Vegas.Comment -
Also, you pay this guy big money, most I have ever heard for a pick, yet you don't follow his picks after one play? I don't get it. So not only do you lose the first play, then miss the winner for your own loser, it's like you are kicking yourself in the nuts after already paying the guy. Sounds like you could use a break as you are pressing thingsOriginally posted by krb8Comment -

I didn't take his 2nd play because I liked the over in that game which hit. I know I'm an idiot for doing what I did and won't do it again. I thank everyone for their responses. I deserved the bashing I got. By the way it wasn't Steve Stevens. PM me and I will let you know who it is.Comment -

I'll give you a little story. The was a group called A/T/S/ that sold us their preseason lock. Tenn titans over atl I think. Well first 3 quarters we were golden. Then some scrub named billy volek comes in and throws 4 fourth quarter tds. This dumbass has the nerve to call and try to get us for some money. I had lost more than I really liked. So i cuss him out. He calls my buddy and tells him that only he can call and get the picks. The next year the asshole calls me again and i let him have it.
Story number 2 I am a big texas fan and it was the first time texas is playing in the 12 title game against nebraska. We call the wise guys and the give out nebraska. So i drop a 500 hundred on them. Texas beats the shit out of them. The next week they are on the radio telling how they gave out texas. You can make as much money finding someone on a hot streak.
Story number 3, there is a guy going by a playing card name. He gives out picks. He was horrible at least 20 games under 500%. so he is on the site crying about how his gf died and that is messing up his mojo. He is talking about suicide. The next year this site backs him up as a tout and he is supposed to be he best thing since sliced bread. I ask the mods what gives and when he brags ;I remind him how bad he is. Next thing is I am banned from that siteComment -
