Yes and it is a fine question to ask.
Billy Walters was generally considered the top dog I think, but he went to jail for some bull**** insider trading stuff with Phil Mickelson.
Harablos Volgarious, aka H-Bob, is widely considered the best guy now, but there is much debate about the true source of his income. Some say he was just a bookie. Some say he was the best NBA totals bettor ever. I think the truth probably lies somewhere in between. I sure would love to see a big bet between him and whoever doubts him though, as I generally find both parties to be insufferable.
There was a guy in here back in the day called rsigly who claimed to be a millionaire bettor and built a huge wax musuem in a bunker with a movie theater or something. He was weird. He invented the salad pill too.
Kelly in Vegas is an NFL betting expert. Everyone should buy her picks and her advice is great too. Love when she buy half points on college football totals to grab that ever important hook in the 50's.
Steve Stevens claims to hit 70% and I believe him. If you cant trust a guy named Steve Stevens who wears sunglasses in side, who can you trust?
"vegas dave" is another super star sports bettor. Sure, the haters will point out his photo shopping of tickets to make them look bigger and the fact that he only posts winners after the fact, but with a name like "vegas dave", whats not to like!?
And of course you have your random internet message board slob around here wholl undoubtably claim to be better than all of these guys. Dont buy it for a second.
