Considered to be the king of NFL sports betting over the last decade, Jon Price from Sports Information Traders is on top of the leaderboard with a 64% overall winning percentage since 2009. Not only does he win consistently but he wins BIG. Jon is one of the few sports handicappers in the industry today that believes in his NFL picks and detailed information enough that he routinely bets on his own picks on a daily basis. In fact, Jon has won over $12.5 million in the NFL alone since 2013. That includes a $1.5 million bet on this year’s recent Super Bowl. That’s a man that stands behind his product.
Jon attributes much of his success to his formula that he first designed during his time at NYU where he studied general mathematics. What originated as an idea for his senior thesis, quickly turned into a money making machine as he says he won just over $90,000 his first season of NFL using his formula. What Jon did was he identified the 22 pieces of statistical data from NFL games over the last 15 years that have the highest correlation to the outcome of a game. While he stopped short of sharing what those specific stats were, he did insist that the oddsmakers at Las Vegas sportsbooks use very similar methods to producing their lines each week.
Speaking of Las Vegas based sportsbooks, Jon Price is considered enemy number 1 among many of the popular destinations on the Las Vegas strip. Given his star handicapper and picker status and extraordinary sized average bets, Jon is no longer able to place his own wagers in Las Vegas sportsbooks. Instead, he has to rely on associates to break up his wagers into much smaller bets, and place them at different sportsbooks along the Las Vegas strip.
While Jon Price is the first to cite his proprietary formula as the key to his success in the NFL over the years, he also says his disciplined means of wagering on sports is just as critical. He never bets more than two games on any given day. And even at that, he says betting two games is a rarity and he much prefers finding the absolute best value on the board any given day, and letting it ride on that. He disagrees with players that spread out their money, and insists that’s a formula for losing. Sports betting is a disciplined man’s game, and you’ll never come out on top if you’re chasing the money or playing by impulse, as opposed to being strategical and informed.
