May 2026 Leaderboard Analysis: Excellence at Tony’s Picks
The month of May 2026 showcased outstanding performances across the Tony’s Picks handicapping team. Several cappers generated exceptional returns while maintaining strong winning percentages and disciplined bankroll growth. The leaderboard highlights a combination of volume, consistency, and profitability that defines long-term betting success.
While total units remain the ultimate measure of performance, examining winning percentages, sample sizes, and risk-adjusted returns provides a clearer picture of who truly excelled throughout the month.
Top Overall Performer
Tom Reighard
Record: 143-125-10
Units Won: +2161
Tom Reighard finished May as the undisputed leader in total units earned. His ability to maintain profitability across an enormous volume of selections separates him from the rest of the field.
Winning over 143 selections while generating more than 2,100 units demonstrates a combination of consistency and aggressive value betting. High-volume handicappers often struggle to maintain efficiency, but Reighard continued producing positive returns while managing one of the largest betting workloads on the board.
His performance established the benchmark for excellence during May 2026.
Most Efficient High-Level Performer
Shane Mickle
Record: 67-54-2
Units Won: +1670
Shane Mickle delivered one of the strongest risk-adjusted performances on the leaderboard. With fewer total selections than several competitors, Mickle generated an impressive +1670 units.
His ability to maximize profits without requiring massive volume suggests exceptional game selection and market identification. This type of performance is often indicative of selective betting rather than chasing action.
Mickle’s results place him among the elite performers of the month.
VIP Division Excellence
Tony’s Picks VIP
Record: 42-29
Units Won: +1180
Tony’s Picks VIP continued to reward subscribers with another profitable month. The combination of a strong winning percentage and four-figure unit production demonstrates the value of premium selections.
Generating more than 1,100 units while maintaining disciplined card sizing reflects a focus on quality over quantity. The VIP portfolio remained one of the strongest overall products available throughout May.
Breakout Performance of the Month
D’Andre Stevenson
Record: 8-1
Units Won: +800
No handicapper posted a more eye-catching winning percentage than D’Andre Stevenson. An 8-1 record translates into elite short-term performance and produced an impressive +800 units.
While the sample size remains smaller than the leaders above him, the profitability was undeniable. If Stevenson can maintain similar efficiency over a larger volume, he could become one of the most dangerous handicappers on the board.
Strong Mid-Tier Producers
Hollywood Sam
Record: 59-53-2
Units Won: +547
Hollywood Sam quietly delivered a profitable month while navigating a challenging betting environment. Finishing with more than 500 units of profit reflects solid market reads and disciplined wagering.
Consistency rather than volatility defined Sam’s May performance.
Damian Sosh
Record: 53-48-3
Units Won: +501
Damian Sosh also surpassed the 500-unit mark. His results demonstrate the value of maintaining profitability even when operating near break-even win percentages.
Strong money management and favorable pricing can often separate profitable bettors from losing bettors despite similar records.
Veteran Consistency
Ramon Scott
Record: 122-104-12
Units Won: +485
Ramon Scott once again demonstrated why volume handicapping can succeed when paired with disciplined execution.
Over 226 graded decisions generated nearly 500 units of profit. Producing positive returns while maintaining such a large betting card requires significant market knowledge and long-term consistency.
Scott remains one of the most reliable contributors on the board.
Positive Return Performers
Tony Tellez
Record: 56-48-4
Units Won: +290
Tony Tellez produced another profitable month, finishing with nearly 300 units of growth.
The record reflects steady performance and continued positive bankroll development. Maintaining profitability while navigating daily betting markets remains a key indicator of long-term handicapping success.
Nick Lagouretos
Record: 96-83-8
Units Won: +266
Nick Lagouretos generated positive returns through a large sample size. Approaching 100 wins for the month highlights both consistency and durability.
His ability to remain profitable despite substantial volume demonstrates strong market discipline.
Grinding Out Profitability
Jevon Jones
Record: 71-72
Units Won: +9
While the profit margin was modest, Jevon Jones still finished the month in positive territory.
In sports betting, avoiding losses can be just as important as generating large gains. Remaining profitable during difficult market conditions reflects resilience and bankroll preservation.
What Defines Excellence at Tony’s Picks?

Units won remain the most important measurement because they reflect actual betting success rather than simple win-loss records.
Volume Management
The best handicappers successfully balance high-volume betting opportunities while maintaining positive expected value.
Consistency
Long-term profitability separates elite handicappers from short-term hot streaks.
Market Selection
Top performers consistently identify pricing inefficiencies and capitalize on value opportunities before the market adjusts.
Final Thoughts
May 2026 delivered impressive performances across the Tony’s Picks leaderboard. Tom Reighard led the way with an extraordinary +2161 units, while Shane Mickle and Tony’s Picks VIP also posted elite results. D’Andre Stevenson produced the most explosive winning percentage, while Ramon Scott, Hollywood Sam, Damian Sosh, Tony Tellez, and Nick Lagouretos contributed profitable months through consistency and disciplined execution.
The leaderboard illustrates the diversity of winning approaches in sports betting. Some handicappers achieved success through volume, others through selectivity, but all of the top performers shared one common characteristic: they consistently found value in the betting market and turned that value into profits.
As the calendar turns toward June, the challenge for every handicapper will be maintaining the discipline, consistency, and market awareness that produced success throughout May 2026.
