A smart gambler is called an investor.
And don't link a club full of people dribbling $10 through a pokie machine with a twat throwing a wage on the outcome of a game.
League wasn't built on match betting - which sadly can to match fixing.
Finally, IQ king, anyone that whacks a few grand on a footy game is Dumb. Can I make that any clearer?
DUMB!
You didn't specify, you said "dumb sh*t gambler", so whatever point I made towards that comment is perfectly valid.
Of course I wouldn't put a few grand on a footy game,because I can't afford it nor trust my judgement when it comes to risking such large sums of cash, but I'm not going to begrudge people the right to do with their money as they please. If you're going to put that large amount of money on things, the majority of the time its a reasoned investment much like the stock market (those dumb sh*t gamblers, look what happened when their stocks crashed, no sympathy!)
And do you honestly think it's $10 gamblers that make Leagues clubs? Come on now, you should know better than that, you've been around longer than me.
As for the sports betting thing, of course it wasn't built on that, nor have I ever agreed with markieboy's situation (I've said twice now I think it's phony), and I'd side with the bookie anyway. But match fixing isn't the average joe's fault.
and no need for the big letters you gigantic knob, you can paint the word "dumb" on a billboard outside my house and I still wouldn't agree with you :lol: If people can afford the risk, that doesn't make them dumb, they've obviously got the smarts to make it to that level of wealth, who am I to question? Otherwise they're just stealing to feed their habit, which isn't dumb until they get caught. Honestly you seemed smarter than that, you've let me down.
