Would you pay a tipster just to be profitable in sports betting?

would you actually pay a tipster just to improve your chances of winning?

Do you really trust these people? I mean, if they’re really that good at predicting games, why would they even sell their tips instead of just betting and earning quietly for themselves?

Some say they do it to “help others” or to share their system, but honestly, if it’s that accurate, they wouldn’t need to rely on subscribers.

So what’s your take, do tipsters actually help, or are they just making money off bettors who are desperate to win?

[Strongkored]

That's something I don't want to do.
First, it feels very foolish to have to spend money upfront just to be able to win a bet.
Second, it doesn't guarantee a profitable because tipsters are just like bettors who only try to predict, and the results can be bad, leading to double losses.

So that I will get scammed? Tipsters are scammers. The money you are paying them is their income and not the money they earn from betting. They are even losing while betting just like almost all us all.

Just avoid them or you will learn in the hard way because at the end, you will only noticed that they are scammers after they have scammed you.

Anyone who pays a tipster to give them games for betting cannot be considered as a gambler and is likely to lose both ways (that is, losing the bet and also losing the amount paid to the tipster). But i don't even know why some people are so blinded to depend on a tipster for games to bet on because what these people does is to publish previous bets that their predictions worked on and some people will just believe that they will continue bringing out predictions that will likely win. Before someone can become a gambler he should be able to make predictions for himself, whether he wins or losses. Instead of even paying tipsters for games to bet, it is even better to take predictions from other gamblers and maybe just scrutinize each of their predictions and add to your bet.

[Shinpako09]

Nah, I will never do that. If the bet loses, which is likely to happen, you’re basically losing twice with one bet. While you lose, they make a profit or at least break even because of the payments from bettors. If they were really profitable, their services would have already trended. Surely, if that were the case, bettors would have flocked to them by now. So, just do your own analysis and make your own predictions. After all, they’re still just predictions after analyzing, and luck will still play a part in the end.

There's already a thread about the tipster you can see here. Do you use "tipsters" when placing your bets?

Some say they do it to “help others” or to share their system, but honestly, if it’s that accurate, they wouldn’t need to rely on subscribers.

It's just an alibi they say to help others but in reality they sell tipster to others who believe in them, usually in certain telegram channels offering tipster services for those who believe.

So I'm not sure about the tipster.

[SmartGold01]

That should be last thing  any responsible gambler should do as they are not real, reason being that no one would see where Milk and Honey and is flowing and will like to call the next person to come join and milk with them, instead they wouldn't mind calling their relatives first to come join them before they could think of outsiders to come join them. In rarity, they can never be sure of the outcome and even though they have tried their hands severally and have winning but to any games they gives out they are not sure of the outcome so, it is left for you the gambler to know whether you would be with huge amount, or pay them.

I will never pay tipsters for sports betting predictions because football is a game of uncertainty, and nobody has the ability to foresee what will happen in the future, so paying tipsters for sports betting predictions is just a waste of time and resources because there's a big possibility that their predictions will go sideways.

I didn't know what a tipster was before, but from what I understand, it's a group or individual who sells strategies to sports bettors. Although these tipsters' goal is to make a profit, I think the odd thing is, as you said why would they sell strategies when they can place bets themselves and increase their chances of winning?
Regardless, to increase your chances of winning in sports betting, I think it's better to do it yourself by seeking in-depth information to increase your knowledge and improve your analysis. This will provide additional knowledge. However, I don't think paying a tipster provides any knowledge. It might provide some, but it's not worth the effort.

[Darker45]

I guess every sane bettor knows this is nothing but a scam. I have tailed a few of these scammers' picks in this past. Some won, some lost. It was all for fun. Nothing big was staked. You must have noticed these scammers sometimes pop out of nowhere here on the forum. But I never subscribed to their paid tips. I never payed a tipster for a signal that's not even reliable. I can make my own analysis. I'm not running out of odds to bet on. It's just the money that's always limited.

There is no much different from the games predicted by this tipster and the game predicted personally, just that most people believe that the prediction made by this tipster are more accurate  than their personal prediction and it make this tipster feel more important and they make money from it. I guess if people don't patronize this tipstar they wouldn't feel like they are offering help to others.

So what’s your take, do tipsters actually help, or are they just making money off bettors who are desperate to win?

I will say both, they offer help to people who profit from them, but make off money from bettors who are desperate to win. Because people will view them differently, a person that wins huge from prediction made by tipstar will see them as good people who are professional, but those that lose in the process will view them as otherwise.

So that I will get scammed? Tipsters are scammers.

Hold your horses!
There are legit tipsters, for god's sake there are tipsters that are actually employed by sports channels and newspapers.

There is a huge difference between no name scammers on Telegram and actual real-life persons like Rob Wright, who has been doing this for The Times for 20 years

Just because some services are scam it doesn't mean that every tipster is a scammer
Tom Segal - works for racing posts, tipster for 10 years, 10% PLA for the last 5 years
Hugh Taylor - attheraces, been around even longer than that, positive ROI since 2014!!

Some of them are not literally just doing it to help others but rather to have more profit than what they already have, people are paying them for their insight not just on what they think will be the winning team. Personally I don't have problem paying a tipster if they are really reputable and the results of their predictions were quite good but those tipster are not 100% accurate and a lot of tipster were actually just after the money of others. A lot of good tipster doesn't really ask you to subscribe and they are sharing their thoughts for free.

I'm wondering if anyone here have subscribed to a tipster service and what are the results as of now?

[Pandu Geddon]

I will not pay to get betting signals from someone else. Besides, Tipsters also will not guarantee that their signals will always be accurate, and if there is a loss, they will not compensate for our bets.
If someone is truly an expert in predictions, I am sure they would not sell their predictions for their own profit. It's clear that by doing such things, they are running a business.

[mirakal]

Shame on them for using the words “help others”.. there’s no such thing as free in this world, especially on the internet. Information can be free, yes, but if it promises guaranteed money, then it’s clearly a scam. Tipsters are everywhere, even the ones who sound so convincing. They talk well, but their tips aren’t consistent. You pay the price, they take the profit, and you carry all the risk.

Even if there are a few profitable tipsters, it doesn’t mean it’ll last forever. The best thing to do, in my opinion, is to build your own skill and knowledge. That way, you won’t have to rely on anyone and you won’t get scammed again.

[Odusko]

I see those that make deposits for upfront gambling as somewhat naive and stupid thing to do, most especially those that registers on certain predictions site or groups and pay fees to get game's predictions as sure odds when you already know that there is no such thing as sure odds in sports betting so those paying tipster to get access to winning odds are just deceiving themselves and wasting their money when they should already know that gambling winnings such as sports betting cant be pre speculated to win.

[DaNNy001]

I understand that some of us prefer to use tipsters perhaps due to the fact that they aren't good with predictions which is normal, but what I can't really understand is why they would pay for tips when they can get it on different platforms for free...I feel like people that do this just lacks information, paying for predictions is a waste of money because there are no guarantees of winning those games you paid to get.

Interesting, so there really are some profitable tipsters out there. But since they’re already popular and probably big names in their field, I’m curious, do you have any idea how much they usually charge for a subscription to their service?

Also, do they have any social media channels or platforms where we can actually verify their results or profitability?

It would be good to see some proof before trusting what they claim.

Ask yourself, why would someone need to take money from others, when they could just use those tips themselves? Why would they choose to use their free time to beg money for their in the internet?

These are fraudsters, who are making their money with referral links / affiliate marketing / paying subscribers. It doesn't even matter if they are altcoin influencers or gambling tipsters, as their methods are same: They will slowly start to remove all their past tips that didn't win money, and they use that modified track record as proof of results.

Newbie would provably do that, but me? I don't think so since I always think that premium tips is just waste of resources.

There's no assurance that we could able to pull consistent win with those predictions they drop. Also much better for us if we do our research since for sure this is more better since we could learn lot of things with this.

I always think that people paying those kind of services are desperate to win huge. But unfortunately they realize late when they know that they are just been fooled by those people saying they are expert.
