A joke about name-dropping:

When I first arrived in ______ (Pick a city), I had a chance to meet ______ (Pick a legendary person) and he told me, "Kid, whatever you do, don't name-drop."

So the joke goes, "When I first arrived in Las Vegas, I had a chance to meet Frank Sinatra, and he told me, "Kid, whatever you do, don't name-drop."

Krackman offers so much free content on his shows, this is sad when people go out of their way to bash. The guy is legit, a proven winner and doesn't deserve this.

KRACKMAN is 20 units ahead in NFL.

EOG is weird, horrible handicappers are praised here while the great handicappers are ridiculed.

corrected, 20 units up NFL and CFB combined. vodka, krackman is a good guy. you used to defend milkshake, now he's tout.

Krackman shares a lot of pertinent stats and has access to great information. This is so undeserving.

Name dropping is an absolute necessity in Vegas.....A few years back I had to drop Fezzik's name over the phone at the Hard Rock to get the back room reserved
by the absentee Krackman....or did I pretend I was Steve?? Ahh so long ago I can't remember. :)

im not bashing him just saying what he is. many guys have grinded out livings betting into stale numbers, watching don best and suddenly having an opinion on a game when the screen blacks out, and piggybacking off other folks information to earn. dont have an issue with any of em, unless they act like they are true sharps and originating the market moves and trying to fleece the public who doesnt know any better. ive never seen him bet into a number that hadnt already moved elsewhere when i was booking him. never. guy only has an opinion when pinny and cris tell him to

Re: Krackman

Idk Krackman the tout but regular old Krackman is a pretty good dude.

And FWIW he has contacts on both sides of the counter that 99% of people selling picks do not have. Actually 99% of players as well.

Whether or not that can be translated into wins for potential customers I do not know but he certainly has longtime friends that go back to the beginning of the offshore industry.

Always stayed out of my business, I wish him well.

I'm not an insider. But it's an interesting concept to think that both the betting pubic and the casino books would be competing to buy capping info from someone they regard as a top capper.

When you listen on VSIN, one hopes to hear some handicapping talk, but it seems like when he's on, he's off on tangents most of the time. Very little talk of handicapping.

Krackman has become a human billboard for puffing big bets, high roller friends and ridiculing bookmakers. Oh and favorite eating stops back East.

I have listened to Krackman many times and my hunch on people is usually dead on. I don't think he knows how to handicap football, basketball or baseball. I'd bet a ton of money he gets which side to bet from his circle of friends.

I can not follow this guy anymore on Twitter....the constant name dropping and book bashing has become excessive. Ever since he went tout he's gone over the top. I think he forgets he started as a forum glory too.

Agreed... In person, he's a very nice guy.

The twitter persona is tiresome however. The constant sports book bashing, especially from someone who's never worked behind the counter in his life, is annoying.

You shouldn't piss and moan about being banned or limited from books especially when you're just chasing steam and picking off stale #'s.

I'll be on vsin tomorrow at 1230 pacific if anyone wants to listen we will be discussing smaller program bowl games, I don't know Krackman but seems like a good listen. I for some reason thought he only did NFL and mostly nfl x.

after jimmy left vSIN probably told him to say some interesting stuff for the people back east. I don't think krackman does not know that Rao's is moving to montcalir NJ

I don't think Faxman knows this.


I got the early scoop
