Paying $$ for picks?

I am new to sports betting... just starting to get into it. I've spent quite some time on this site reading opinions and such, but I've been wondering. Has anyone tried one of those pay sites that "guarantee" the win. I understand they only credit your account the price you paid for the pick, so you could end up losing a lot of money if their picks suck.

Has anyone had experience with these types of sites? If so, can you please offer suggestions of which ones to use/not use? Or is the whole idea just a complete scam?

Thanks in advance!

When you pay for info for "FIXED" games, in all likelihood, you will cash.

With the touts, its "hit and miss"

there are some very sharp cappers in each sport. if you are looking for picks then find these guys and you will cash. a couple that come to mind of NBA are goterps and the judge. both very sharp imo
