theblanketcomeswith | Kings

195 | 3 hours ago

cba agreement —-> state regulations —-> federal ban. so yes it is way easier to get individual states to advocate for bans especially since they regulate it all themselves anyway and thats why different books offer different things in different states. in laymans terms if they threw enough “lobbying money” at a state they would take the props off

prediction markets arent sportsbooks thats a whole other set of legal boundaries. more people are using them anyway because of taxes, regulations etc. the only downside is less protection/voided bets because of random outcomes (injuries, retirements, etc)

States have a lot of monetary incentives to not ban gambling in any way tho. AFAIK only Mass. has done anything about it and I think they cited “it’s better for the people”. Don’t see any other states doing the same. They would have already.

Prop bets shouldn’t be allowed, especially at the level they are allowed to get into. It’s a huge issue in basically every sport. Soccer has a rash guys purposefully getting yellow cards in specific time frames in the most obvious ways. Just hacking down people over and over right off the rip.

Not even just the players but for the refs as well. Taking the under and getting a player into foul trouble early, or taking the over and sending them to the line over and over again. It’s affects game integrity and isn’t so dramatic so as to be obvious

TrustDaProcess | 76ers

Basically you bet on a specific event happening.

In basketball you can bet on a player scoring over or under certain amount of points. This makes it pretty easy for players like Beasley to bet the under on their own points and then purposefully not score.

thejackel225 | 76ers

12 | 2 hours ago

Betting on specific stat based outcomes other than winning and losing. Player props = player-based stats, so common ones would include betting whether a certain player will reach X number of points/rebs/threes/etc

Waiting for the next article or podcast telling me it’s not a big deal or widespread, so I should keep gambling in sports.

So a year ago his attorney said he was no longer under investigation and now he’a indicted. Been watching too much law and order lately so my guess is he was a cooperating witness then decided to shut up

The promotion of Sports betting in major sports leagues has significantly harmed the integrity of sports. If you look at the 9 major sports leagues in the world (Big 5 European, 4 major North American), every single league has seen at least a player in trouble for sports betting in the last 3 or 4 years.

Side note: Australian gambling ads always have, at the end of the ads, a separate message in black and white that discourages gambling, and then with a number to call for those struggling.

YOU WIN SOME. YOU LOSE MORE.

IMAGINE WHAT YOU COULD BE BUYING INSTEAD.

WHAT’S GAMBLING REALLY COSTING YOU?

I’m not sure why, but those messages slightly freak me out, yet intrigues me at the same time. But if you’re gambling, please do so responsibly.

I literally dumped my ex because he was addicted to draft kings and defended sorsby after the fact. I’m sure he’ll find a reason to text me that this is ok too 😭

If you haven’t seen the Pablo Torre finds out episode about him, highly recommended. Even if the episode is almost a year old. PTFO
