Sports tipsters have been around forever. But it's thanks to the internet we can see a huge rise in the number of professional sports bettors who have turned to the dark side and are now offering winning tips for a fee. They say there's a sucker born every minute. This is so true of those who pay sports tipsters. They cannot predict the future any more than you can. But by clever use of smoke and mirrors, they are able to sign-up a massive number of mainly young people.

Expected value is the means whereby you'll discover whether a bet is worth taking or not. Once you can calculate this, then you can bet where ever you find value, even on the losers. Remember that you're a for-profit bettor and this is another toll for your arsenal.
