WATCH YOUR BACK! DID YOU KNOW that sports handicapping companies who engage in link-sharing with online sports books can get a percentage of your losses?
How to Tell if Your Sports Information Source Is...
SLEEPING WITH THE ENEMY!
SPORTSBOOKS open for business because they think they can beat you. They will go to great lengths to get your money.
Unfortunately for the player, sports books have succeeded in luring sports handicapping outlets into bed with them in their quest to survive.
The Dirty Duo
If you surf the Web for sports handicapping sites, you have undoubtedly noticed the banner ads and links for online sports books. It might have crossed your mind that a sports handicapping site is a strange place for a bookmaker to advertise.
After all, why would a bookmaker want to take the account of a customer who gets professional advice before betting?
One reason should be obvious. The bookmaker has no fear of being hurt by the sports handicapping services being offered to the player by the service they adveretise with. They think that a lot of people will be receiving bad information. The book is basically saying, 'Go ahead, play their picks with us.' They think that you are bound to lose.
Because the book considers your association with the handicapping service as no-win, it strikes a deal: The service who sent you to them receives a percentage of the referred customer's losses with the book.
Not a percentage of the customer's opening account balance, which would be the normal and honorable thing to do. But a percentage of the customer's future LOSSES. The losses that were recommended to the customer by the sports handicapping company to which he paid money to for winners. In other words, when you lose, the service wins! The more you lose, the greater the service's commissions from the sports book!
By accepting such a deal, the sports handicapping service has sold its soul to the devil -- in this case, the evil-doer sports books already giving you 11-10 odds or worse. By following through with the deal, the sports handicapping service helps grind down the very player they say they support.
Hard to believe, but true
Imagine that? Your source of information can benefit when their picks cause you to lose! They play you for a sucker.
No evil alliances here
If you see a banner link for a sportsbook on the Web Site of a sports handicapping service, then there is a chance for a percentage of your eventual losses with that book to be awarded to the sports handicapping service.
Don't let that happen to you.
Since Sports Reporter steers well clear of ANY business alliances with sports books, our members never have to worry that their source is "in cahoots" with the sports books.
Sports Reporter Online members are constantly winning battles against the books, armed with the best sports information available that doesn't simply copy the dull, 'lack of info' styles of most others in the sports handicapping business. Sports Reporter represents the player's interests only, and will not take advantage of the relationship by engaging in shady deals with devils.
Two against one will win -- You and Us, vs. the Book. But if you're looking elsewhere for info, it could be You vs. Them. In that case, the odds are in 'their' favor. -- sportsreporter.com
