@FezzikSports So you think that you can rate optimal picks in a large general pool contest as the same picks to use in a head to head contest? I have no dog in this fight, but your comment is just you self reporting your ineptitude in contest game theory. Not the flex you think it is

@ToddWitteles @PokerFraudAlert Your Harrah’s Tahoe info is wrong. They still have 3 different 9/6 JoB machines in the high limit room that are 100 play machines. Min bet is $25 so you have to play min 10 hands at $.5 denom. I played the machines in spring 2024. $10/point. Verified on VPfree2 as well

@PhdDfs The issue is the same as in finance. Incentive structures get fucked when the derivatives becomes bigger than the underlying market. Housing bubble, NBA refs, rigging TAS markets. It's all the same. More money being bet on the outcome than the profit made from the outcome itself

@abarber1 @DoctorRazzWSOP When I made the comment I was thinking more like the child slave labor that goes into the harvesting of cocoa, but I suppose there is not a high enough tariff you could put on cocoa to incentivize US production of cocoa simply because our geographical climate doesn’t allow for it

@abarber1 @DoctorRazzWSOP 100% agree. Americans have shown to have a low tolerance for adversity and it will cost Trump approval rating short term. But I am pro tariff for long term effects. IMO anti-globalization is the easiest path to a non K-shape economy. And decreased reliance on slave labor is a +

@abarber1 @DoctorRazzWSOP Why do you assume 100% correlation with someone being pro-tariff and thinking his approval rating stays at the same level? That’s a ridiculous assumption. So many policy issues determine the latter. And tariffs are bad short term and take years to have see the positive effects.

@nflwiseguys @SurvivorAtlas @JeffreyBenson12 @DerekJStevens @VSiNLive @CircaSports Tapout is supposed to go LAC instead of ATL but he most likely won’t click it. If he does he’ll be the only one that can win the 14 million

@davecinc The 2x wild version is just way more volatile. Lots of 0 bonuses and then once in a while you’ll get a 200x

@SurvivorSweat Washington was the #1 team week 12 when they lost. Them and MIA both had 33 entrants.

@strassa2 100% agree, but in the same way that holding USDC for short periods of time to transfer into cash, move around exchanges, etc is important (I'm not huge into crypto but this is my understanding of it). In both cases some of the money is efficient but most is inefficiently used.
