Go to any social media platform and check out the comments. You'll quickly realize that half the world appears to suffer from confirmation bias. The idea that an opinion is correct, even when faced with scientific contrary eveidence, leads to some entrenched thought processes. The same holds true with all forms of gambling. In sports gambling, as well as casino games, many gamblers will base future bets and wagers on the previous positive outcomes. But there's no connection between the two.

If you pay for betting tips, then there's a good chance you're a mug, and will receive nothing of value. All tipsters are scamming gullible gamblers. If you had a fool-proof way of picking winners, would you share those profit making tips for just a few dollars? These tipsters prey on desperate gamblers and those with no understanding of how betting works. In a way they are paying someone to make the bets for them. Even if you were to win, the fee for the tip would swallow any possible profit.
