Do Not Bet Parlays

[redietz]

If this is what passes for gambling expertise at VCT, well, LOL. Try again, people.

"True answer counter-intuitive." Funny stuff. As if there is a population called the "general public" and a subset that isn't the "general public." What, do they wear name tags or do lapel pins so you can tell them apart? As if playing a nickel video poker machine somehow requires a different strategy than a dollar one with the same pay scale. If you really think that you're not the "general public," maybe you should show us your "Not the General Public" gumball-machine ID card.

This is why blackhole thinks you're all bullshitting.

Let's see if any VCT geniuses can answer the simple and obvious question, "What is the reason most (as in 98%) of parlay betting is indicative of bettor laziness?"

If you can't answer the question in 10 seconds or less, you have no business betting sports, period.

Well, you want people that are wrong about anything banned out of forums. Now you want people that are wrong about sports betting banned from betting. And you think you are the smart one. If all the dumasses were banned from betting you wouldn't have a place to bet.

What you fail to grasp, mickey, is I would be more than happy if the ending of The Stand happened tomorrow.

Your point is actually the same kind of argument BoSox used over at WoV to argue that kewlJ shouldn't be so hard on people who are fooling the "general public" with tales of extravagant wins because (drum roll) without the people buying the nonsense, winning at blackjack becomes more difficult.

By your logic, doctors who treat VD shouldn't be giving out pamphlets explaining how to not get it because (drum roll) that would cut into their business.

If there's no place to bet, then I won't be betting. If my only betting option were parlays, then I wouldn't be betting. If my only betting option were 6/5, then I wouldn't be betting.

Betting should be an opportunity, not an addiction.
