Demetrio Giotti – The European Basketball Expert

Looking for a professional, battle-tested, and easy to follow betting service that works with Pinnacle (or bet brokers) and doesn’t rely on soft bookmakers? Demetrio Giotti’s expert European basketball service ticks all these boxes.

As he enters his 10th season, he’s opening just 50 elite spots for 2025/26 — a deliberate cap designed to safeguard odds and sustain your edge.

By timing his bets when markets can absorb substantial stakes, Demetrio has delivered 260 points of profit and a 15% ROI across 925 selections since launching his service in 2016.

No reliance on soft bookmakers. No price chasing. No urgency to bet immediately. Just disciplined, long-term profitability in high-liquidity markets.

To protect value and minimize market impact, Demetrio’s service is capped at just 50 members for the entire upcoming basketball season.

No exceptions.

Once all spots are filled, enrolment closes until next year — and with the waiting list already counting hundreds of people, most likely places won’t last long.

Why This Matters

  • 👥 Limited Access – Capped at just 50 members to preserve price value and market efficiency.

Betting Market Edge: European Basketball

Demetrio specializes in European basketball, a fast-growing yet still inefficient market ripe with opportunity. He focuses on the continent’s top-tier competitions, including:

  • EuroLeague
  • EuroCup
  • Spain’s ACB League
  • Italy’s Serie A

While these leagues enjoy strong domestic followings, they remain underestimated by many bettors outside Europe – leading to less efficient pricing compared to heavily saturated markets like football, tennis, or major U.S. sports.

For those with deep knowledge and a disciplined approach, this creates a rare edge: a real and repeatable opportunity to consistently beat the market.

Betting Into Sharp & Liquid Markets

All official selections are quoted using Pinnacle prices and placed in core, high-liquidity basketball markets:

  • Moneyline
  • Handicap
  • Totals

Demetrio times each bet for when the market can absorb significant stakes, typically only advising plays when Pinnacle limits reach $1,000 or more. This signals a mature and stable market, less prone to sharp movements from early or speculative money.

In slightly less liquid leagues — such as EuroCup or Serie A — bets may be released when limits are in the $750–$900 range, still comfortably tradable for most bettors. For major events like EuroLeague, limits always exceed $1,000+ at the time of release.

The service is designed to be simple and easy to follow, with a clear emphasis on long-term, steady profit.

Each tip comes with a recommended stake and a minimum acceptable price, allowing subscribers to back the bets with confidence and clarity.

What This Means for You:

✅ You’re betting into mature, efficient markets

✅ No pressure to rush — prices don’t collapse instantly

✅ Bets can be placed via Pinnacle or brokers

✅ Softer books may even offer better prices, if accessible

All of this leads to one conclusion – Demetrio Giotti provides tips that are suitable for those at Level 3, 4 or 5 in their betting journey. His selections can be followed using sharp bookmakers—either directly or via bet brokers—as well as through traditional soft bookmakers, depending on your access and setup.

Where His Edge Lies…

Leveraging his deep knowledge of European basketball and years of experience, Demetrio identifies value opportunities across the markets, typically sending out 15–20 carefully selected tips each month.

Rather than chasing volume, Demetrio prioritizes strong value:

‘I firmly believe in quality over quantity and nowadays with the markets getting more efficient with every passing year, specialisation is necessary to get an edge over the bookmakers.’

Demetrio combines qualitative methodology with detailed statistical analysis to make his selections.

Demetrio’s Profitable 10 Year Record

From 2016 to the end of the 2025 European Basketball Season, Demetrio Giotti has built up the following record:

  • 925 bets 
  • 259.5 points profit 
  • 15% ROI

A full, bet-by-bet record can be viewed on this regularly updated spreadsheet.

As we can see from the year to year results, the service has been extremely consistent, with only two years (2020, which was impacted heavily by Covid-19 and 2024 where CLV was actually stronger than ever!) showing a loss:

Demetrio Giotti’s Review Analysis (Updated in September 2024)

Ahead of the 2023/24 season, we published a full set of results analysis in SBC Issue 136 and a follow-up on this in SBC Issue 145 from September 2024. Here are some of the findings from this review (if you hold an SBC membership, you can read these in full in this magazine via the members area).

Firstly the different odds ranges that Demetrio bets at show an excellent level of consistency:

Although these bandings are arbitrary, what we can conclude is that Demetrio is finding value at both ends of the market or as he puts it:

‘Small sample size aside, we clearly have to be very careful isolating narrow and ultimately arbitrary odds bands. For example if instead we had picked the odds band up to 1.92, we would have noticed a ROI of 3,6%, so nothing out of the ordinary. At the same time, if we look hard enough, I’m sure we could also find a specific odds band even within the very lucrative bets on the longer odds that isn’t making any profit currently. It doesn’t mean we have to avoid betting on this narrow band however.’

Both main bet types also contribute to the overall ROI, with moneyline selections (which generally have longer odds) providing the majority of profits, with handicap bets keeping variance low at a strike rate approaching 60%. (Additionally, since late 2023, Demetrio has started recommending bets in the Totals market, which have performed exceptionally well to date: 58 bets yielding 27.66 units of profit, a 23.8% ROI, and an impressive 65.5% strike rate.)

Starting Bank & Staking

All of this has contributed to a service that lends itself perfectly to steady bank growth and excellent returns on capital (or ROC).

Based on our analysis (which is available to read in depth in SBC Magazines #136 and 145) we would recommend a 50 point bank for this service. Using that starting point, the service would have delivered the following Return On Capital figures since 2016:

Analysis of all of the above can be read in the deep dive analysis of Demetrio available in SBC Magazine #136 and #145 (which can be read via this link – SBC member log-in required).

Demetrio’s Unofficial Bets

Over the past three seasons, in addition to the official bets, Demetrio has also started sharing unofficial plays—exclusively available via Telegram for subscribers with a season-long plan. These are complementary side bets that include long-term wagers (typically found only on soft bookmakers) as well as standard picks in familiar markets such as Moneyline, Handicaps, and Totals (all available on Pinnacle).

While these selections may not carry the same level of conviction as the official bets, their performance so far has been equally impressive, as shown below:

Long-term bets: 18 bets, 41.6u profit, 231.1% ROI (level 1-unit stakes)

Other bets (Handicap, Moneyline & Totals): 93 bets, 11.7u profit, 12.6% ROI (level 1-unit stakes)

What To Expect During The Season

  • Tips Sent Via Email (and Telegram for season-long members)
  • 15–20 bets per month during the European basketball season
  • No micromanagement needed — just actionable advice

Service Nuts And Bolts

About: Demetrio Giotti uses his extensive knowledge of top European basketball leagues alongside analytics to provide value selections in the Moneyline, Handicap and Totals markets.

Bet Timing: There is no fixed time for tips being sent due to games being played at different hours, days and sometimes time zones. His typical tipping window is 08:00 – 20:00 CET (Central European Time).

Bet Notifications: Bets are sent by email. Season-long plan members also receive them on Telegram.

Bet Type: Handicaps, Totals, and Moneyline markets.

Bookmakers: All bets are quoted using Pinnacle as the reference. In other words, you can follow the service effectively with just a Pinnacle account (whether directly or through a broker). Access to soft bookmakers – particularly Bet365 – is not required, but it can help you secure better odds and place every unofficial bet as well.

Number of Bets: The service advises around 15-20 bets per month during the European basketball season, which for the 2025/26 season starts in late August.

Staking: All stakes are 1 or 1.5 units for bets on outsiders and 2 or 3 units for handicap bets and totals bets

Betting Banks: All bets are based on a 50 point betting bank.

Season Duration: The basketball season typically runs from late September to late May. International tournaments are usually held during the summer.
