With the same yardstick for both: here every pick is sealed against the market the moment it is published, so both yield, hit rate and average odds come from prices nobody could touch up. Comparing self-reported records — screenshots, private spreadsheets — is not comparing: it is choosing whom to believe.
Which is better: a higher hit rate or a higher yield?
Hit rate alone means nothing. A tipster hitting 80% at odds of 1.10 loses money by missing two in ten, while one hitting 35% at 3.50 can be very profitable. Yield combines hit rate and odds into one number — what every euro staked returns — which is why it is the first column to read.
How many picks does a meaningful comparison need?
With a few dozen, luck rules: any 20-pick losing streak looks like a crisis and any hot streak looks like talent. That is why the comparator requires a minimum record before facing two people, and always shows the sample size next to every figure — without the sample, the number cannot be interpreted.
Can you compare tipsters from different sports?
Yes, and it is one of the points of the tool: yield and drawdown are percentages of money staked, they do not depend on the sport. A 6% in tennis and a 6% in football are the same profitability. What does change across sports is market liquidity — how much money each price takes — and that shows on each profile.
Why are followers and testimonials not compared here?
Because both can be bought. Followers, likes and screenshots of grateful chats are available by the bundle; a cryptographically sealed price in a public ledger is not. This comparator only faces what no tipster can edit afterwards: their results against the real market price.
