Default Does anyone here engage in online sports betting?

I watch the constant bombardment of commercials by places like FanDuel and DraftKings etc and they make me want to puke. Please tell me you don't feed this gambling monster.

No as I'm not into gambling.

That being said, I did consider better on Trump winning the election. After reading all the fine print, there was no way I was going to trust them with my bet.
Worked out well me (re: not betting) as Biden was installed.

I hear negros are the primary group of people stupid enough to do online betting. I wonder how soon before they get some Jew lawyer to sue over reparations for that too?

I suck at gambling so no for me but I know someone. There’s a lot of “free money” incentives and can’t miss bets. You can get in with a $20 swipe and win if you’re not an idiot. It’s entertainment not a retirement plan. This person is not a negro.

So the bottom line is, are they making money?

I suppose he makes money or ends up breaking even at worst. No huge losses, he’s not an idiot. I can only speak for one person, not a “they”.

I would lose big money but I’m not enough of an idiot to do it …anymore.

This person is a mathematician and a sports junkie. He’s actually not bad at it and has a lot of fun.
