Justin Martin (JutPicks)

As a straight bettor, I do dabble a tad in parlays. I’ve had two memorable bets that I’ll never forget. I live bet the Eagles to score a TD on the last drive before halftime with a minute left at +2000. Miles Sanders broke off an 80+ yard touchdown to win my bet. Last season, I cashed a +1400 ticket on Justin Jefferson to lead week 14 (Sunday only) in receiving yards. He went on to catch 11 balls for 223 yards.

Being able to consistently have profitable seasons is what’s more important. Last MLB season on twitter, we were up +38units off straight bets. A grind is an understatement but that’s the best part of the job.

I graduated during the pandemic in 2020 from the University of Alvernia in Reading, PA. Sports has always been a joy of mine since a kid so working in the industry felt like a must. I started out my career with an internship with the Philadelphia Union and affiliate teams during college which jumpstarted me in the sports industry. Writing was never something I really enjoyed but when it came to diving into statistics and putting it on paper, the writing came naturally. In my spare time, I coach high school basketball which brings me much joy. Staying involved in the game and having the opportunity to coach young men is a joy that is indescribable.

Sports betting felt natural for myself as I always took joy in playing fantasy football starting at the age of 8. Analysing lineups and making those tough decisions was a thrill that was unmatched especially when it paid off. Back in 2021 I decided to take my talents to Twitter and post my thoughts and plays hoping that I could educate others that had the same interests. I started out posting all my NBA plays and it took off within weeks. Alongwith with Pickswise, I am partnered with Pikkit to track my bets, and write and edit NBA, MLB, & NFL stories for OddsShopper & Stokastic.
