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.

Sean Higgs

Sean Higgs is a PICKS and PARLAYS Orignal Member (2008). On sites since 2006, Higgs has been beating the books since the early '90s, long before "analytics" was a buzzword and long before most of today's handicappers ever set a betting line. While stats, trends, and angles are useful, knowing how to apply them is key—that's Sean’s specialty. The results speak for themselves. 11 #1 monitored titles and 38 Top 10 finishes across multiple sports since 2015. That's not luck. That's three decades of pattern recognition, discipline, and knowing exactly when the numbers matter and when they don't. You don't need to become a professional handicapper. You just need to follow one.

Jesse Schule

Who is Jesse Schule? He's no soothsayer and he doesn't have a crystal ball, but Jesse Schule can indeed predict the future. As a professional handicapper, it is actually part of his job description. His clients have accused him of secretly possessing Marty McFly's Sports Almanac, but he tells us the secret to his success is thanks in part to his fascination with history. The idea that you can predict the future by studying the past is nothing new. Historians have been doing it for years.
