99% of the touts/sports handicapping services lose
99% of the touts, including the ones that you see in this movie are just marketers, in the long run they will take your money and will not make you money, in fact they will lose you money. They simply pry on gullible, clueless or desperate people with convincing and somewhat silly marketing tactics. You will never see these guys show a history of their track record or talk about their ROI. Its all about a made up winning record or short hot streak or just the play for the day that they would tout it as game of the day, week, month, year, century etc.
However, there are very few handicappers who treat sports betting just like stock market. They use proper money management and they will have detailed records of their picks, odds, units bet and all sort of analysis of the earnings. THink of it as hedgefund...why do people pay other guys to invest their money...because they don't have time or the skill so they used other reliable sources. It can be done with sports betting too. For example, take a look at the spreadsheet from bettingresource.
