How bad is this?

The worst part is not the "fixing" it is the fact that so many young'uns believe that they can make a living by sports betting.

As an ex-bettor that bet tens of thousands during my typical weekend for several decades, I can testify that the reasons that there are bright lights in all of the casinos in the world, is that the "mooks" pay for them, and I was a giant MOOK.

I was also successful in business and that prevented me from going tap city, but I urinated away multiples of millions before either sanity or senility stopped the negative cash flow.

There is no way to beat the "bookies", regardless if they hang out on the street corner bars in Pittsburgh or own a glitzy gambling joint in Vegas...they win.

I know, don't believe me, try it.

Whats the old rubric?

If you’re playing in a poker game and don’t know who the sucker is, then you’re the sucker.
