Triple Play All-Access Baseball Pass – Includes 5% Best Bets – ONLY $49!

For a limited time, get every baseball play from your favorite handicapper for three full days — and any 5% Best Bets released — for just $49. That's only $16.33 per day for every premium baseball release your handicapper posts. You'll receive instant access the moment plays are released, ensuring you get the best possible number before the lines move.

Individually, these plays would cost well over $100, but the Triple Play All-Access Pass gives you three days of nonstop baseball action for less than half the price. As a bonus, if your handicapper releases any college or international selections during your access window — including College Baseball, KBO (Korea) or NPB (Japan) — those are included at no extra charge. Don't miss a single first pitch — lock in your Triple Play All-Access Pass today and start cashing tickets!

*Access includes all MLB selections and any college/international baseball released and played during your 3-day window.

WAGERTALK 2026 WORLD CUP ALL-ACCESS PASS — $149!

The biggest sporting event on the planet hits North American soil June 11 through July 19 — 48 teams, 104 matches, 39 days of action. From the opener at Estadio Azteca to the final at MetLife Stadium, lock in every play your expert releases from the group stage to lifting the trophy.

What You Get:

  • Every World Cup play your expert releases, June 11 through the July 19 Final
  • Coverage across the matches and markets where your expert sees value: sides, totals, props, futures, and live-bet alerts
  • Group stage through the Final — all included, no upsells when knockouts start
  • 5% Best-bets and top-confidence plays
  • Same-day delivery before kickoff with the full write-up

Why $149: A single sharp play can pay for this card multiple times over. Six weeks of capper-grade analysis on the most-bet soccer tournament in history — one flat price.

The Edge: World Cup markets are flooded with casual money — tourists, squares, flag-wavers backing their home country regardless of value. That's exactly the soft market a sharp capper feasts on. Your expert is selective, hunting spots where the number is wrong — not forcing a play on every match just to fill a card.

Lock it in before the June 11 opener — once the ball kicks, this offer disappears!

3-Day All-Access Pass — ONLY $49

For a limited time, get three full days of all-access service from the handicapper of your choice for just $49 — only $16 per day for every play they handicap across all sports, including MLB, NBA, NHL, WNBA, soccer, UFC, tennis, and more.

That's $20 off the regular site price.

Need more than 3 days? Stack 'em up. Buy multiple 3-Day passes and ride the same low rate as long as you want — they'll run back-to-back so you never miss a play.

And here's the kicker: while your pass is active, you'll also have a 25% OFF coupon good on regular-priced daily packages and Flex Passes!

Whether you're following a proven expert or trying someone new, this deal gives you full access to every selection and every piece of analysis — no restrictions, no exceptions.

THE PLAY: Total Under 8.0 (-113) Emerson Hancock (RHP), Sean Burke (RHP) Must Start
