Today's Hottest Plays

Ralph Michaels

Ralph Michaels has a math mind, steadily searching for a value in the numbers in addition to matchup edges, situational advantages, and hidden gems of information. Ralph finds more big bets in the college versions of football and basketball, but his handicapping approach also uncovers selective winners in the professional leagues. Small conferences are particularly profitable due to mispriced injuries and his profiling of exploitable coaching tendencies.

A former professor at UNLV, he taught football handicapping and co-hosted the famed "Stardust Line" radio show in the ’90s.

Drawing on elite Rotisserie league knowledge, extensive gambling and media sources, and mentorship from icons such as Dave Malinsky and Lem Banker, Nover is known for his sharp, deeply researched, and original betting analysis.

Mark Zinno

Zinno handicaps football (college and NFL), basketball (college and NBA), Major League Baseball, and golf. He uses game script and his own personal line-making, along with situational handicapping to formulate his plays. Multiple bets across multiple sports are the norm.

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.  

Jackie Mack

Jackie Mack has been crafting winning betting strategies for over 20 years. With a Bachelor's degree and minors in Statistics and Economics, she uses her deep knowledge of data, trends, and probabilities to deliver consistent, profitable results. Jackie takes emotion out of the equation, focusing strictly on analytics to identify value and mispriced odds. Her disciplined, stats-driven system has generated long-term success—not just for herself, but for a loyal client base who view her insights as investments rather than a gamble.

Marc David

For well over 40 years Marc David has been following and betting on sports all over America. As a teenager, he started on the other side of the fence and eventually in his mid-twenties, had his own business running successfully. Watching those customers for years has given Marc insight into how to beat the point spread and how to avoid the mistakes that are common among novice bettors.

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.
