    looking for monitoring service ASAP

    One of the monitoring services I post at refuses to respond to and grade my winners recently, so I look for another monitoring service.

    Can anyone suggest sites with a lot of visibility?

    Also, there are some sites which require me to pay to get monitored, and I don't think that's good for people who are plus EV. They should be making money off the split commissions between them and the handicapper.

    If this forum does not allow you to post this information publicly, please send me a PM - thank you!

    I did a quick search on the forum and I narrowed it down to 3:

    track picks
    pick monitor
    handicappers watchdog

    Those three seem more legitimate than most. If anyone can suggest something better, I appreciate it.

    Why do you need a monitoring service? Trying to build a rep for a tout run?

    If that's the case just go to pregame, posts some picks there and wait till you get your chance to swim with the other scumbags.

    I had multiple conversations with VegasInsider.com and WilliamHill management, and they suggest to get a 3rd party monitoring service to track bet history in order to become a listed handicapper. Of course this is for additional income along with betting.

    The problem is I don't want to wait 2-3 years to develop an external track record, and they for sure can't use my own (I internally have a 5-year history that I keep track for myself on all sports.) So I want to see which places are legitimate, and which ones will sell the picks for me.

    I don't have time to run my own website, unless there is a webshell that I can use right out the gate. So for now, this seems faster.

    From what I see, I don't want to have to pay to be monitored, and that is a sticking point with some of the sites. If they take a part of the commission, then that's fine.

    You can join certain contests and a rating both weekly and overall is posted on the forum. E.G. Beat the Prick Contest.

    Definitely not a good idea, and I don't want to become the next Sarah Philips:

    I think that having multiple streams of income is a good idea. If a tout can make 50K/month betting and 50K/month selling, I think that's a good way to go.

    After reading about some of the people at Pregame, downsouth is right .. touting is really shady, but I also want to make money every which way possible.

    good idea, but maybe having a lifetime tracker is still better.

    yes and no .. i want to do both if possible.

    depends .. losers sell because they have no choice.

    winners may or may not sell for a variety of reasons.

    some winners sell at first, then never sell anything later once they reach escape velocity or they get tired of clients.

    the trading/hedge fund world works exactly like the last one.

    thinking about going tout myself

    unique angle will be "affordability"

    daily packages for $0.15, weekly packages $0.35, and all premium picks in all sports for an entire month for just $0.75

    also individual game picks daily for less than $0.05 each, including a daily "One Cent Special"

    i like the concept, will need volume though

    I like the idea. You can be the very first tout who practices sodomy. Good luck on your new fortune, no doubt youll get the volume needed.

    Before I get bashed, I work for these guys (so maybe I'm biased?), but take a look at and make your own judgement of Tipstrr Engine. At the end of the day you have to feel like you are getting great/legitimate service, I am open with everything we do, so if any of you want to grill me about why/what/how/who we are, I'm happy to comment.

    Out of those three you mention though, I think I have heard more positive feedback from pick monitor, they seem to do a good job of it.

    I agree with Biff, so I go the contest route from now on. The thread posts are too much work, and the contest tracks everything for me.
