This guy is absolute garbage. all he does is blow his own horn 24/7 on twitter so i got on board for a free weekend pass. he goes 0-5 in mlb and manages to hit a crumby pre season NFL game. when i contacted him after the trial to see if i could get a couple days to get back my winnings, he tells me he can 'cut me a deal on his nfl package' thats guaranteed to profit. his writups are lame and look like he basically cut and paste some sentences from MLB.com. he has hit less than 40% of his plays for the past 2 months but has a record of +40 units?? his best month was in January but theres no picks showing how or on what he made that money, smells like a scammer trying to get some quick cash. also noticed that kiddpicks.com had different numbers than kiddpicks.net when you look him up. couldnt find anything to verify the records anywhere and the only thing i have found is forum posts on sbr, covers etc of people basicall warning you to stay away. take it from me your dumb if you even bother with a free trial, you nuts if you give this dude your money.
Well I sent in my review earlier but i was so pissed at the level of service and the way i was brushed aside that i did some digging and have what i think is enough to qualify this "professional" as nothing more than scam artist.
lets start by looking at his site. his only wins come on parlay plays and if you actuall go back a week or so his combined odds are juiced by sometimes 0.40. he doesnt ever mention what book hes using to get his combined odds or parlay odds and from what i can gather by looking at his twitter feed timeline, basically refuses to have any outside documentation of his picks other than his own site. If your so "transparant" (that seems to be his favorite word) why wouldnt you want to quiet the nay sayers by simply posting your picks on a site like this one?
another odd thing that a lot of people have posted on twitter as well is his addition of units. his website clearly states that his plays are to avoid paying juice, which implies he is playing a win units system. problem is what little documentation there is on the site if all over the place. one day he had 2 units on a -115 game, it lost and he claimed to lose 2 units. to me that implies were playing a "to risk" system cuse a 2 win system would have actually cost 2.3 units. a couple days before that he has a 2 unit game on a -110, it wins and he wins 2 units. so its not exactly clear whats going on but you cant have it both ways.
but the best was after a little looking all you find is BS. you look him up on FB and other social networks and it claims hes occupation is something completely different, although most of the other stuff such as location etc are true.
the rest of this report has also been sent to stats.com and espn.com because within 15 minutes i was able to pick out CLEAR signs of plagiarism where his write ups are WORD FOR WORD what these sites had up for their daily previews of the games.

im pretty sure if i took the time to look at it all, i would be able to see that its all copied from one place or another. the funniest is he sits there and brags about his writeups and daily recaps all day on twitter.
and lastly if your crazy enough to follow this guy, be prepared for the bombardment of emails, mentions on twitter and DM's on twitter that your going to get. hes like a hybrid of a telemarketer and TV evangelist promising you something your never going to get
