“This dude takes the Victim mentality to the next level....sheesh SMH”

The next level would be to sue the Jaguars for giving him access to the credit card.

If suits like this were to succeed there would be no gaming industry.

75% of the people who play are probably “addicted” to some degree.

If you don’t want to lose, don’t play. If you lose, go whine to your mother.

I don’t gamble so I’ve never lost a dime.

The old arsonist’s argument that the matches and gas can made him do it.

Pete Rose was banned from the HOF, Fan Duel pays LeFlop big bucks to appear in commercials with Kevin Hart. Dak Prescott touts Blockchain during Cowboys games.

Am I sensing a double standard? I was never a Pete Rose fan, he admitted to betting on baseball.

Hes not a woman - the defense of blame shifting and playing the victim card for bad personal choices, will not be allowed.

It might have a chance of working if he “identifies” as a woman...

Winner == professional high stakes gambler

Loser == victim / gambling addict

Tangentially, how is the site supposed to know who’s an addict and who isn’t?

How do you tell between an addict and a regular normal or professional gambler?

Further if the addict is a good player and wins more than he loses can the site sue the player? Why if the addict is a bad player then they want to sue the site? For letting them lose?

He will be absolutely crushed in court.

"He accused the betting site of preying on his gambling addiction."

He needs to start praying because his preying lawsuit doesn't have a prayer.
