Question 1

How are @thechalkvip's picks tracked?

Accepted Answer

The Chalk's picks are read from their public posts on X. Software extracts each pick, its odds and its stake from the post text and any screenshot, so a stake is what the post showed as read by a machine, not a figure The Chalk confirmed. A post that states no stake is counted at 1 unit. A pick that could not be read in full is shown as not counted.

Question 2

What is checked on The Chalk's results?

Accepted Answer

Two things: that each counted pick was posted before its game started, and how it graded against official game data. Of 5 picks tracked, 5 count toward the record; the other 0 are pending or not counted because they were posted after the game started, could not be matched to a game, or could not be graded. Realize does not check The Chalk's bankroll, whether a bet was placed, or picks they did not post.

The Chalk: +2.1u net on 5 graded picks
