Matt broke into the professional handicapping scene back in 2002 but he was far from raw as sports betting had been in his life for many years prior. He made a name for himself with numerous top-five finishes at a prominent independent national sports monitor in his first three years:

He took a number of years off from being documented at sports monitors based on a few factors but with social media now such a big part of this industry, Matt feels it is vital to once again be documented by an independent source to keep his brand strong and Respected.

Winning has become a mainstay. This past season was a prime example as he finished No. 3 out of 84 handicappers in college football, No. 5 out of 96 handicappers in the NFL and No. 2 out 99 combined handicappers (both NCAAF and NFL) at Sports Watch Monitor.

Analyzing each and every game, no matter how big or How small the card may be is essential to be able to pull out the best situational plays. He is a contrarian at heart which is one of the best ways to beat the books on a steady basis.
