A sure sign of a scamdicapper is a claim that he owns a long-term record of making picks against the point spread of 60 percent, 70 percent or higher.
If you’re tempted to believe such nonsense, consider a public challenge just put forth by Fezzik, the one-name professional gambler from Las Vegas.
Fezzik says he is willing to bet anyone up to $100,000 that he or she cannot pick NFL winners against the point spread at a rate of 57 percent or better.
The basis for the person-to-person wager, according to Fezzik, would be the challenger’s performance in next season’s Las Vegas Hilton “SuperContest,” in which entrants select five NFL games a week against the spread for 17 weeks. A record of 49-36 in 85 selections would meet the 57 percent threshold in the contest, which carries a $1,500 entry fee.
“Anyone who claims he has an expectation of hitting 60 percent against widely available (betting) lines going forward is flat-out wrong,” said Fezzik, who estimates 55 percent is the best record that even a pro sports bettor can expect to achieve. “Against certain prop bets, or against overnight lines with small limits, it might be possible, but not in a sport like the NFL.”
The winner of this season’s Hilton contest hit 65 percent. Although that’s a wonderful accomplishment and a $205,200 score for the winner, Fezzik said, it doesn’t prove anything except that in a field of 300-plus contestants, a few can be expected to exceed 60 percent.
Fezzik opted to go public with his challenge not only because he believes he has “the best of it” — meaning he’d be favored to win such a bet — but also to expose as frauds touts who make outrageous claims about their records.
This was OPEN to all comers.......a nobody won!!!
