Daily Fantasy Sports: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)

Daily fantasy sports sites claim they are not gambling enterprises, but they seem awfully…gamblish.
If only their ads were more truthful.

    2015, the time before everything was about a selfish, smug liar who doesn't know he's the biggest loser on earth. with a following of idiots behaving like a cult…. those were times when everything wasn't about how stupidly bad he took that loss in 2020… IT'S BEEN FOUR YEARS YOU MANGO DICTATOR! YOU!!!….

    John sucked during lockdowns, he really needs an audience, and no plandemics in sight. I unsubbed back then but now resubbed.

    PS: Covid is the Fort Detrick disease, masks don't work, and I can happily say that my blood is still pure and of high value in the medical world (unlike vaxxed blood which is useless). The joke is on believers, per usual. Jesus also still not back 😂

    And now gambling is completely out of control in sports.

    Gambling in sports I’m so surprised

    And now, Prop bets, on anything, live while the thing's in progress. For example, Vegas has the over/under for John saying Holy Shit in this episode, at 1.5. Going in, I'd say over.

    If John Oliver were the next James Bond I might actually watch it..

    how about we make gambling illegal or limit how much you can invest into it?

    Some day you're going to have to go back to your middleman trap, your magnetic coils, and your Five Points soapbox derby, and I'll still be here. No offense but that Druid sacrifice will eat you alive.

    wtf I'm actually beginning to wonder if Janice in Accounting is an actual person that works for HBO

    The disappointment I felt when I found out Daily Fantasy Sports wasn't Quidditch

    Former poker pro / current day trading pro here…
    If a fair player can turn a profit over an infinite sample, it isn't gambling. Or, absolutely everything is gambling.

    You can't define an activity as "gambling" because it features an element of chance. You define it as "gambling" when every player has a negative expectation over an infinite sample. Otherwise, every speculative activity – real estate, mining, hedge funds, etc. – would also be classified as gambling. But they're not. Why? Because skill can, and routinely does, overcome the presence of any and all chance elements within those fields.

    The USA needs to get its shit together. It's been almost two decades since UIGEA, and still, online poker is not organized at the national level. Almost every other country figured it out by now. Online poker desperately needs all those losers back! lol
