Handicapper Update: Phil Steele releases a two star on San Diego.....smart betters know to fade Northcoast Sports plays and they got an easy winner on the Seattle Seahawks. Thanks Phil. The Bookie "the Chaser" Basher is making new videos. On his Monday video he admits he lost 674 dimes last week. He put out a 20 dime play today which lost, its gonna take forever for his new subscribers to come back from last weeks huge debacle. He is now 694 dimes down since midnight Sunday, August 17. Stay tuned. That small town handicapper guy from back east, Bobby Clarke has been on a roll, up $3,255 last week according to the gregarious John Werner at ParlayHelp.com, the sports monitor. When everyone else was down today, Mr. Clarke was up another $200. Cool it Bobby, you are making these other guys look bad.
Take the Boston Celtics -4 at home over the LA Lakers as our Tuesday play of the day, 6:00 PM Pacific starting time. Its also our NBA Playoff Lock of the Year. Stu Feiner has released the LA Lakers as his 4,000,000 dime play tonight. That makes the Celtics a lock! Stu is like a broken record, losing five (now six after tonight) in a row in this playoff series betting the Lakers. His idea of money management is to double your bet after each loss. Even Stu admits its bad money management. Everyone is invited to the banquet we have planned in Stu's honor. We have scheduled Mike Warren to be the Master of Ceremonies. Pants required. Good luck on the Celtics, but you won't need luck as Stuie is on the other side!
RESULTS: Easy cover on the Boston Celtics. Stu Feiner loses six in a row and is down a whopping 7,850,00 dimes on the series. Of course, we bet opposite his pick tonight which is called a fade. We knew the Boston Celtics bet was solid. It was obvious to anyone who has been following this series. Pity Feiner's gullible clients who followed him down the road to ruin, upping their bets after each loss. Folks: Never pay for a pick! Anyone, and I mean anyone, can do a better job handicapping than Stu Feiner. All he does well is salesmanship, selling dreams and delivering misery.
"Mike Warren is a pathetic handicapper and a tremendous con artist," says Feiner. Says Warren, "Stu Feiner? He's got a big mouth, always talking big. He knows this hoodlum and that hoodlum-gonna break my legs. You know what? He can't break an egg. I gave him my address. He's so short, the only thing he can reach is my legs."

Total dimes lost last five NBA playoff plays -3,850,000
Stu's last five plays show incredibly poor money management. He urged his poor customers to double their bets each time. On his 6/10/2008 video he told them to bet everything, even borrow money to bet on the game. Listen to this sales pitch, he promises the moon to get $69 out of his gullible clients. The only good thing about that was they had no money left to bet on the next two losers he put out.
Utes win! Our play of the day record is now a lousy 4-22-2.
We add Brandon Lovell and Sebastian to the Handicappers Wall of Shame:

Thursday, October 04, 2007 BLANK CHECK GAME OF MY CAREER #11. Cubs vs Diamondback Must Win or 5 Days Free 10-0 With Blank Checks

From Sebastian Website Thursday, October 4, 2007:
100* Playoff Game of the Year
64-36-6 in football!!(+792 units!) FINALLY some BIG plays!! 100*baseball play(10pm start). REST OF FIRST ROUND ALL SERIES FREE if this game does not cash!!!
----------------
Both Brandon Lovell (he was asking $99 for this crap play) and Sebastian (he charged $79 for this play) had the Cubbies for the second game of the series on Thursday night. Again they do a disservice to the betting public by hyping what should be no more than a 10 dime (or unit) bet into some kind of "Play of the Year", after the Diamondbacks had already beat the Cubs in the first game. Where you uncomfortable on this bet too? Did you see the Cubs opening pitcher Lilly throw his glove to the ground. Hope no one lost too much money on this over hyped game. Brandon Lovell and Sebastian deserve a placard on the Handicappers Wall of Shame with Mike Warren.

Handicappers Wall of Shame - The A List:
Article written by Tom Somach from the Las Vegas Sporting News
Everyone loves Top 10 lists.
But Today We Have --- THE BOTTOM 10 --- SO STAY AWAY FROM THESE SCAMDICAPPERS...
So who are the Bottom 10 scamdicappers in the business?
MIKE WARREN SPORTS, BALTIMORE, MD. --- Look up "scamdicapper" in the dictionary and you'll find Mike Warren's picture. He's the badest of the bad, the most disrespected and disreputable sports handicapper of them all. He also couldn't pick a winner if his life depended on it. He recently scammed an elderly Korean War veteran in Buffalo out of big bucks by making bogus claims about his touting ability. Before that, Warren was fined by the New York City Department of Consumer Affairs for deceptive advertising practices, according to the New York Post. Warren also bilked people when he ran the now-bankrupt "Psychic Hotline," a telephone service that charged callers to speak to fortune tellers. Mike Warren isn't even honest about his real name, which is actually Michael Warren Lasky.
AGAINST THE SPREAD (ATS) CONSULTANTS, BALTIMORE, MD. --- This outfit is the second-worst tout service in America, almost as bad as Mike Warren Sports. And guess who runs ATS? Robert Lasky, nephew of Mike (Warren) Lasky. The complaints about ATS have been numerous, including allegations of credit card fraud, sneaky telemarketing scams and phone pager bait-and-switch scams and the bilking of a set of Iowa twins out of nearly $200,000.
JIM HURLEY'S NETWORK, JERICHO, N.Y. --- The third worst tout service out there. And, to no one's surprise, it's also run by a Lasky, in this case Brian Lasky, brother of Mike (Warren) Lasky. "Jim Hurley" is Brian's alias and it's no wonder he uses one. The "Network" is a typical Lasky con operation that's more interested in (and talented at) ripping off customers than picking winners. But then again, scamdicapping is the family business if you're the Lasky family. Brian also employs some of the rudest clerks in the business.
STU FEINER(Your Source), FARMINGDALE, N.Y. --- After the Lasky Boys, Stu Feiner is the biggest scamdicapper around. Sometimes called Mr Lisp because of his Speech problems. He too has been fined by the New York City Department of Consumer Affairs for deceptive advertising practices, according to the New York Post. He also has the distinction of having run the most annoying scamdicapper commercials ever seen on television: his shouting about his touting made one want to shoot the TV screen. HBO did a special last year on how STU FEINER ripped a guy off for $60,000 thru credit cards and Western Union.
KEVIN DUFFY(aka THE LIVING LEGEND), FARMINGDALE, N.Y. --- What is it about the scamdicapping business that makes it run in families? Kevin has earned the nickname COFFEE CAKES because of his terrible ACNE problem, but what is Worse than his looks are his outrageous claims to HIT 85% of his picks. But just like Stu, Kevin makes outrageous claims about what little handicapping success he has. That's why Duffy has also been fined by the New York City Department of Consumer Affairs for deceptive advertising practices, according to the New York Post. What specifically did Duffy do to earn the fines? The same thing Mike Warren and Stu Feiner did: he ran newspaper ads which contained phony claims about his success in picking winners.
JACK PRICE, LOS ANGELES, CALIF. --- Next on our list of the Bottom 10 is Jack Price. This guy looks like a Walking GORILLA. A former Price employee told the RGT Wager Watchdog that Price's picks are often made by flipping a coin. Price, whose real name is Mark Meghrouni, also used to run Paradise Casino, an offshore sports book in Curacao that went out of business. Last year, Price pled guilty in Federal Court to money laundering and tax evasion charges, paid millions of dollars in fines and back taxes and had a house and car confiscated, according to the Associated Press. In addition, Price was sued by former NFL players John Brodie and Deacon Jones for fraudulent use of the football players' names in connection with a Price tout service.
DAN PASTORINI, HOUSTON, TEX.--Yes, it's the former Houston Oilers quarterback, running his own tout service. Last fall, Pastorini had to run an apology in USA Today, saying he does not use "inside" sources from the NFL to make picks for his tout service. The NFL had sued Pastorini after he made such claims in an earlier USA Today ad.
ED HOROWITZ, NEW YORK, N.Y. --- This guy calls himself "The Professor." According to a story in Sports Illustrated, he is a former cocaine addict who was once arrested in New York on gambling charges. That's certainly someone you'd want to trust with your money, no?
JOHNNY DEMARCO, ATLANTA, GA. --- The real name of this scamdicapper is John L. Edens. According to a story in Sports Illustrated, he told people who called his free 800 line to call his for-a-charge 900 line for picks, and if the picks lose, there is no charge. That's a lie, however, because once a 900 number is called, the charge is automatic. He once claimed to have gotten inside info from a college basketball coach, but the coach denied speaking to him. He also claimed his tout service was top-rated by a monitoring service, but declined to reveal he was associated with the monitoring service.
