Wow, I wasn’t aware of this. Were any other SRKers currently in WA aware?
This was a free entry tournament with over 3,700 players and made it into the Guinness World Rcord book…
Maybe I’ll check out these ones sometime. Has anybody ever played roulette with 0 and 00?
Thinking about betting money on Le Pen to win the French presidential election. Paying out 5x at the moment. Sometimes I feel like putting down 10K on it.
Fed keeping rates the same is paying out 8.8x. I so want to just put small money on it like 200$
What site are you using? I’m willing to put money on LePen. Possibly the federal reserve.
There are many sites on the net. I use betfair.com.au because they give the best odds. They take 5% commission from your profit.
Paying out 11x now if the fed doesn’t raise rates in a couple more days. Le Pen is paying out 4.9x now but beware…the polls are saying she will lose out to another right wing guy in the second round of the election. She will probably make it through the first round easily.
Also they will take bets for EU referendum in France if it happens before 2019. 3.75x if it happens.
I’m not so sure about the Fed increasing interest rates, but they have been hemming and hawing about it for quite a while. At 11X I’m kind of willing to throw some money down just to see what happens.
so how much money could I have made if would have bet 1k for the rate hike?
I lost 150 bucks betting on no rate hike.
Rate hike paid 1.08x
I ended up not betting, it looked too certain. I was thinking of throwing a few hundred bucks at it for lulz anyway.
Yeah, they were forecasting the hike for months and months. .25 Basis points doesn’t mean shit (a finance discussion) but no way was I going to gamble against it.
They were just waiting for the election to be over.
It was a lolz bet.
I’m thinking about MMA now, UFC 207. Ronda Rousey (1.6x) versus Amanda Nunes (2.5x). I need to see how these dykes fight before I wager. Thinking of betting 350… Not sure, I don’t watch MMA anymore so I don’t have a clue haha. I have an acquaintance that is always telling me his MMA predictions but he’s a complete moron that talks out of his ass. He was also the guy who tried to talk me out of betting on Trump.
Wasnt a Ronda Rousey a Bernie supporter. Didnt she have some stupid analogy about her being the ultimate pokemon?
Dont idiots say that she’s “The female Mike Tyson” when shes nothing of the sort.
Dont know much about Amanda Nunes but I’ll willing to throw down some cash on her based on Ronda Rousey.
I guess having an interest in DraftKings qualifies as gambling.
I joined DK back last year in December and have won close to $2700 in the last year, primarily on fantasy MMA.
On UFC 200, I won $2400 alone. I have a serious soft spot for Amanda Nunes after that night lol. I think she goes out and gets another W come UFC 207.
Capitalism is socialism for the rich and communism for the top one percent.
Ya’ll can use my quote for your sig or whatever
Uh… false? What does this quote actually mean.
Because the US system right now is way closer to socialism than to capitalism.
If I stuck the word “crony” in front of his sentence it would actually make sense
Where can Americans play/bet?
I bet at a local casino, but RECESSIONTIME uses betfair, and I was going to use it to throw some money at the LePen election.
Betting on le pen now pays out 4.5x with fillon paying out 1.75x. I’m not sure… The polls say she will lose but these are consistently wrong.
You guys got me wanting to hit up the Lumiere Casino lmao. I’ve always wanted to get into casino games seriously but veen too broke so stuck to cheaper gambling like lottery tickets. With things like the powerball I only buy those when the jackpot is really high.
