    It's a cancer and should be limited like cigarettes

  2. @miniharez

    I bet legal online sports betting doesn’t end well…any takers???

  3. @Jorhan

    Ban advertising

  4. @GENGamerZ00

    High quality culture is becoming a risk. The highest pop culture is sport. Now it becomes a gamble. I lost interest in sports trends.

  5. @VeraHannaford

    2:50 It's only a matter of time until there is a major sports gambling scandal. Professional athletes are, for the most part, young men with phones.

  6. @Mitjitsu

    You're not going to get banned from being too good at playing the stock market or poker, but they will do it when it comes to sports betting.

  7. @KevinJosephMedia

    Maybe they should worry more about the major drug epidemic in our country that's destroying lives and families.

  8. @ComboKingMC

    Thats crazy its almost like its our governments fault. Maybe focus on the real problem of the average person having to work a job they hate 40hrs+ a week for 40+ years just to survive and retire in middle class.

  9. @JeffthePharmacist

    If you happen to be a successful bettor they kick you off

  10. @kakarot6627

    Gambling while driving? Could you please explain that a little more?

  11. @George-uy2kb

    Putting money into long term savings > putting money into gambling

  12. @aronneal

    This is a got damn hit piece

  13. @oliversykes7520

    Match betting and value betting is the only way to profit

  14. @travismester

    A simple meta analysis would show that Bill Miller is flat wrong on his stance of technology use not being addictive for phone betting.

  15. @SteMcloughlin

    Millers a joke😂

  16. @rockymntdan1

    They're doing it on purpose to help create another economic crisis. Then they will "save us" with their "solution". "You will own nothing. And be happy"

  17. @JS-lc4kg

    fanduel pulled out? noway! how weird

  18. @JS-lc4kg

    at this stage, this even being reported as news shows just how lost we all are lmao. good luck stopping the casinos nothing will happen until they own every piece of everything

  19. @BlackishSayian

    I use a barrier, my account is on my wife’s phone 😂 so I have a built in time and money limit 😂😂😂😂 the best one that exists to date 🫣

  20. @Christizm

    Every sports betting consultant is a winner thats what they say when in reality there just gambling addicts and want action without having to use there own money eventually they lose customers and need new ones it’s a dangerous game as they could easily get bashed or murdered for losing peoples money

    Personally from experience the only way to gamble is with your own money if you don’t got it then no gamble for you simple.

  21. @iREP87

    You will lose if you gamble.

  22. @ozbeatz9757

    Personal life matters of the players, will affect your bet💯

  23. @cj1614

    My best is 8 wins in a row. My worst 21 straight losses.

  24. @Dslicckest1

  27. @atlntcostv7293

    How: it’s all fixed 🤝

  28. @marleygee1189

    Basically full time sports betting is a GRIND. Don’t look for the money right away. Create your system and pick your spots WISELY.

  29. @sheldonleroy3963

  30. @DuffmaneB

  31. @user-py7nw6ov1b

  37. @seanbrownsociety
