Today's Hottest Plays

Ben Burns

As the single most popular handicapper in the two-decade history of Covers Experts, Ben Burns' reputation precedes him. Known for possessing an uncanny ability to consistently deliver with his biggest plays, Burns has numerous documented #1 titles to his credit in all the major sports.  Ben has dominated the NFL for more than two decades and he finished as our #1 OVERALL FOOTBALL HANDICAPPER this past season. He's also our #1 Pro AND #1 College Basketball Handicapper Of All-Time. 

Ricky Tran

Ricky bets on NFL, NCAAF, NBA, NCAAB, NHL, MLB, Soccer, and CFL and makes a living attacking opening lines and is almost always on the right side of line movement. All of his picks come with ‘key trends’ where he illustrates how they apply to the current situation. Ricky is extremely sharp with numbers and represents a new breed of handicapper. Youthful, enthusiastic, technically savvy, and up to date with the latest tools of the trade; but he's not shy to trust his gut on any given bet and ignore the stats.

Bryan Power

A consistent winner since first emerging on the scene back in 2011, Power did not have a single losing calendar year in his first decade as a pro handicapper!  In April & May of this year (2022), he went on an amazing 154-99-2 (+$41,322) with all plays! Bryan handicaps all the major sports, including props.
