MONTGOMERY, N.Y., Oct. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Basports.com is gearing up to defend its title as the world's top hockey handicappers. For the past 8 straight documented hockey handicapping contests -- that's 4 years of regular and post-season contests -- basports.com has finished #1 in at least one category of either The Sports Monitor or the Las Vegas Sports Eye hockey handicapping contests.

No sports service -- other than basports.com -- has even won 2 consecutive hockey handicapping contests. Perhaps that's why basports.com has been recently named America's best sports handicapper by about.com and its resident gambling expert, Allen Moody.

Moody concludes his review of basports.com by saying this: "I can count on one hand the number of services I would give a positive recommendation about to a fellow sports bettor. Bob Akmens Sports would certainly be included in that select group."

This well-known sport-betting guru at mega-portal about.com, delivers the ultimate expert opinion about basports.com: "No other handicapper can match Bob Akmens in terms of winning on a consistent level."

And Bob Akmens, owner of basports.com, keeps winning contests and showing why that's true.

In addition to being the current leader of a pack of 118 handicappers in The Sports Monitor College Football Handicapping Challenge, basports.com has 219 #1-finishes in documented handicapping contests in all sports, far more than any other sports handicapping-service.

Basports.com is unique because they're the defending national handicapping champs in each of the major sports: football, baseball, basketball and hockey.

With the baseball post-season here, basports.com will be providing their expert picks as the defending baseball post-season champs, having won the Las Vegas Sports Monitor MLB Post-Season Championship last year.

Allen Moody of about.com also notes that "Bob Akmens ... runs one of the only sports services I know that gets respect from bettors of all backgrounds, including the wiseguys who bet for a living."

In an industry full of guys who burn as bright as a firecracker -- and last as long -- sports-betting expert Moody has said that Bob Akmens is "one of the most respected handicappers in the business," and that "you truly do get what you pay for, plus more."

Who could ask for anything more?
