have you ever bought picks from a service?

I got clipped for some plays years ago. One of Feist's reps called me up around Thanksgiving and gave me the rest of that week for $49. The plays went like 8-9 or something and then they called up constantly after that thinking they could charge $1500 for the rest of the year.

Subscribed to a service for UK horse racing about 10 years ago.
The had great write ups for the races where they has picks, but the results were no better than I could do myself.

Yes way back in 1992, bought a 3 week package from Jim Fiest...... he cost me a lot of money and I called and bitched, they wanted to extend the package I said No f'n way I have no bankroll even if you give me a winner, took me a bit but they refunded my CC and I never did that again. Learned my lesson the hard way.

Never. If I wanted to kill myself I know where to find a cliff and an ocean.

I pay Pavyracer $99.99 a month for 20 plays for the last 8 years. He has hit exactly 54%. It gets directly taken out of my checking account.

I spent $130,000 on service plays last year. I have to ... know nothing about sports

back in 1995, when i was just getting started, some fukk from Jim Feist's boiler room tried nailing me for like a dime for their shit picks

i got a refund it was just so god awful. Had i known, i'd get those picks and fade every single one of the motherfukkers.

My buddy got nailed repetedly by ATS sports for baseball, basketball, horses, it was sick.

You are getting the 50% discount. I don't give discounts to other customers. Shhh..
