28+ years as a Professional Sports Handicapper Grew up in Chicago: Birthplace of the Point Spread Professional Services Provided Expert Sports Predictions for MLB, NFL, NCAAF, NBA, NCAAB
I've been gambling on sports longer then most of my clients have been alive. It comes natural to me at this point in my life and it has provided me with tremendous opportunities over the years. My formula for success is knowing that handicapping is an accumulation of edges and I embrace the challenge every day in order to deliver for my clients. The 60's were a rough and tough time in Chicago and while gambling was looked down upon as a vice it was a way for me to earn an education that could not be taught to me in school. In fact, gambling kept me off of the streets since I was more interested in reading the papers and studying odds and matchup sheets then hanging out on the corner. Numbers became my gateway to success and over the course of 40+ years betting sports I have become quite efficient at building a bankroll and maintaining long term profitability. It wasn't until the last 80's when I decided that my experience, skills, knowledge and expertise can be put to use for the greater good and help the masses. Now after almost 30 years, King Sports has become my largest venture and avenue to reach clients on continents across the globe.
