Many gambling influencers/tipsters exist, but only a few can really be trusted…

I do listen to some of those influencers but in the end, I still follow my own prediction. If I lose consistently, at least I know I have to consider another aspect to look for when analyzing rather than focusing to only one aspect.

Gambling is a game of chance and luck, so its not surprising why some are actually losing. But believing on such influencers isn't the way to recover your losses, but they will only worsen the situation and lead you to bigger losses in the end.

The application of independent predictions as a major basis should lead to our learning of all our mistakes during the game. I understood that the constant losses made us more critical and consider new views to trace statistics. You pointed out that taking the recommendation of people in authority will make our financial position a lot more weak since these people do not assume any form of risk. The best way to avoid falling into the trap of losses that might be a consequence of their false promises is by their independent thinking.

Trust in gambling prediction is not complicated because it is based on results. If a tipster is giving out game, then from the result of the game it is easy to know hoe good he is in the business and that is how the trust is built. A tipster than does not produce winning or produce winnings that are far below the losses they generate will definitely lose trust  because no one wants to follow a failure. The reverse is the case when a tipster is producing winning tickets and helping people change their lives.

Only few can really be trusted as you said.

For me I don't even trust any influencers/ or tipsters, as a matter of fact I'm a tipster so I don't necessarily need to look into getting prediction from any body, it is only those who are curious to win in gamble that usually go after influencers or tipsters for prediction because they feel that their prediction is somewhat guaranteed than their own prediction and that's their own believe and not mine. and I don't care if anyone is wining in the Long run or not, I don't know the reason why I don't get moved by those wining stories.

Is part of the game, most especially those influencers working for the scam casinos, I meant those that have shady characters and have a lot of dirty deals to do just to keep the traffic to their casino, most times the influencers even go on fake bet, or fake winnings all with aim to get new players to believe in them, but when the play risks their money, the end up losing, is not new that is why you have to be skeptical about influencers opinions, since their are part of marketing too.

[Ivystar5]

There are so many of them on X and some even use ads in my country, paid ads to advertise themselves but however I don't have anyone who is doing it at my reach those are just only people and I don't take those online predictions seriously, sometimes I see evidence of their outcome but still believe that they do not post about their failures so that is very deceiving, I will rather do it myself and maybe cross check my prediction with their own predictions if they have similarities.

Most of these influencers give out inaccurate predictions on purpose because they get paid to do so...when an influencer or tipster drops a booking code that belongs to a particular bookie and more than a thousand people bet on it, the influencer is actually making a bonus amount of money while others that copied the bet are losing, it's all part of the deal...This is why I don't reslly really trust a lot of tipsters

[Cantsay]

What about you? Do you have any names/influencers in mind whose picks are 90% correct (any sport)? Do they really exist?

Trust me if there was really a tipster with a win rate of 90% out there you wouldn’t even hear anything about it and if you happened to hear about them, then know that their service wouldn’t be free or cheap because if they were that good they wouldn’t even need to charge people before they make money since they could simply just bet on their predictions and make millions of dollars from bookmakers.

For me, I have labeled all those people claiming to have a good win rate or know people who make correct predictions for sports as scammers, because if what they were saying was true they wouldn’t be charging $20 for it.

Yesterday, I watched a movie (Two for the Money) about a gifted former American football player who provides paid predictions for pro and college leagues. At the beginning, he was accurate, but once he became popular and a bunch of players started believing in him, he lost his spark and made many people lose big fortunes.
This is why I prefer to play without taking someone as an idol or reference. Whether I win or lose, I never look for an excuse. If I follow someone else’s predictions, I simply lose the fun behind gambling (Tbh sometimes I use Ai for stats, but it's not the same thing)

Following influencers ends you up in a wrong direction because at the initial stage of their prediction, they are always serious and wanting trust from the crowd to they do the right thing, but immediately they see that they have gotten the trust and firm they want, they feel so comfortable about it and don't care anymore about others, it is better not to follow those influencers because they will definitely break your trust with their odds, as they are there for their own personal interest and nothing, do your own research and get your odds that your will not regret.

Be it accurate or not, it’s all predictions still. They aren’t on the team else, they wouldn’t get to gamble neither are they officiating the match. We could argue that they could be part of match fixing syndicate but, this is very rear to come by. That leaves things to prediction which is what just anyone could do and even today, we have AIs making predictions based on available data and none of them is reliable.
If you aren’t ready to make your own prediction, then you probably shouldn’t be gambling because, it would mean you are indeed out to gamble for the money.

For a very long time i haha always been focused on doing analysis and making use of my own predictions because one mistake anyone can ever make is thinking that tipsters have the best predictions, that's false. like you said, only a few tipsters can be trusted because most of them are just after money. This is the reason why I learnt how to analyze bets by myself instead of relying on influncers. I figured out that most of them are not really as knowledgeable as we think they are many of them are just looking for ways to make profit from others

He cant be blamed for making people bet large or small.    Every tip has to make sense to the person betting if we're talking sensibly.
  The strategy of buying someone elses tip and entering it completely blind not knowing if its good or not, doesnt even sound fun to me and I think its too dangerous an idea to proceed with except with throw away amounts for testing the waters.
   Worst thing is to get too confident imo, there is no golden goose that always lays out a perfect bet and so the final say has to be me if its good or not.  I couldnt bet blind like that tbh.

I feel the same way actually once you start outsourcing belief to an idol, the responsibility and the fun quietly slips away. I don’t think anyone consistently hits 90% long term and if they did, they’d be silent and rich, not selling picks online. Using tools or stats is fine, but trusting your own judgment makes both the wins and losses feel real.

First of all, I agree with you. Look, when you want to start a business, many people will give you all kinds of advice and try to scare you. But you must keep your goal clear and strong. You need to have that stubborn determination in your mind — I will succeed in business no matter what. You cannot afford to lose belief in yourself. In business, profit and loss are both inevitable, but you must never give up. Always keep your own thinking and judgment above everyone else’s opinions.

Many gambling influencers/tipsters exist, but none of them can really be trusted. There you go. That's the truth. I've come across countless of tipsters over the years. They sometimes get it right. They sometimes get it wrong. In other words, they're far from being 90% correct.

Even here on the forum, tipsters come and go. I've tailed some of their bets for fun. Some won. Some lost. In the end, they left because their track record isn't anymore reliable.

But I haven't yet paid subscriptions for tips.

This movie sounds familiar! There is one account on Telegram that I follow called SeanPerryWins, and he seems to have some good picks. He throws a few up for free every week but I don't know what percentage accuracy rating he has. I'm just in the club and he has 30k subs. Maybe worth checking out. There is also this other guy I know from my old job that had a discord page but I just checked and he hasn't posted anything in a long time, making me think maybe he got burned and lost a lot of people some money too.

You make a solid point. The majority of tipsters and influencers do not participate in the teams, officiating, and controlling results and only give predictions, so whatever they say is not guaranteed. Others even make money out of persons imitating their bets and that is why blind trust is life threatening. Also AI predictions, which have been developed with massive amounts of data, cannot be completely relied upon since sports themselves are unpredictable. Where a person is unable to form his own, informed judgment then he is losing money, not entertainment and it is at such a point where losses are practically unavoidable.

I can clearly beat my chest that I don't believe all of this tricks made by most gambling influencers, sometimes I wonder why they can't come out plain and true knowing fully well that the mode in which they tend to defend is mainly false. Then I use to believe since they got the influence of being known the predictions made on that bet would be real but I'm glad I came to understand that the are show off and the are actually doing all that for money.

[Outhue]

Aren't influencers and tipsters all predictors? Whatever they say are not guaranteed, you are playing with fire if you choose to trust anyone of them, because all they do is predict until they get it right more than once and start telling the world that they are good at their game.

I have had past experience with tipsters before and it doesn't make any difference to me because they sometimes make the wrong predictions too, since then I have quit on looking for such group of people, I am better off doing the predictions myself and placing some money, you will be fine if you can keep risking only what you can afford to lose only.

[imthegreat]

Essentially, only those who see betting as a profitable hobby (an incorrect view) bet based on the predictions of influencers or other more authoritative analysts. But if someone bets purely for fun, they'll never listen to predictions, as that will only lead to a loss of interest. And of course, it's better for them to bet on their own, because it's much more fun to place a small bet, analyze the match in advance, and then see if you're right. And this is a perfectly healthy way to enjoy the hobby without putting strain on your wallet or self-control.

Let's say it's discreet betting.

Don't be overconfident and bet all in if you follow their predictions. If you don't want to be blamed for it in the end, only bet the exact amount you can afford to lose.

Yes, it's almost the same as predictions. The only problem is that they charge for the predictions they make as tipsters. Sometimes they also have subscriptions. If you are satisfied with your betting strategy, you will not need other people's predictions because that will just be an additional expense, instead of using the money to play the game directly.

For sport betting i have never rely on the tipsters or following the influencers because just like i said before that sport betting is the gambling games which you can learn the skill because as long as you are the fans of the particular sports i think you will understand how to predict the outcomes of the particular games and i think for those who involved to sport betting for years will be confident to their skill especially if they have high winning rates during their bets i think these people won't be necessary to listen or joined the tipster from the influencers
