| SPRTSBK You already know Casino's don't like "card counters." Did you know there's a group of people "Bookmakers" consider to be parasites, the scum of the..

I find this hilarious not because it's news: I've known it to be true. What's funny is this is the first time I've seen someone post this on a platform like Twitter (or one of its ilk.)

Did you know people are banned from places for this very thing?

Steaming games is interesting. Debatable but we can find the same thing in other markets/genres.

Steam chasing? These are your parasites.

@252BAMA broad definition the guy uses here.

limit bet the errors

How often could you have done that with Circa this season?

I always had the notion...

If someone makes the rules.....and you win....within the boundaries of those rules...... its ok...not being a parasite....even if you work through the unintended error room

SO are telling us that @the Bookie is a parasite? By the way, you didn't have to tell me I lose all my Bama Bucks!! I knew as soon as the clock hit 00:00! can't wait till the 2022-23 season is here. Also we don't play in any Peach, Jerry World, Mayo Bowl at the start of the 2022 season?

The outrage, if you will, started from a NBA game just a few days ago with D. Green. There was an a tweet just a few minutes before the game where they said Green would be starting in honor of Klay Thompson but sit the remainder of the game due to an injury.

Put that story in the gambling world...specifically with parlays.

The game itself came off the board quickly so adjustments could be made. In this case you had a lot of people playing props on how many points Green would score in the ball game. With that tweet now you knew he'd play (so the action was there) but he wouldn't put up any stats. HELLO UNDERS!

Parasites. Most of the books took their prop bets off when they started taking wagers on the unders. Some of the smaller ones ended up getting left on the board(s.) DraftKings took their headline Green props off the board and stopped there leaving things like Green in different same game parlays. People noticed, hit it, and it is estimated DK took a hit over a million bucks on leaving that one up.

Are you a parasite to look for those openings? Is it any different than shopping lines while in Vegas? There have been a few cases this year where the spread has been so close at -110 the money line has been the better wager. You can find that shopping one book to another.

I see it if they produce a line and option, that it's 10000% on them. They know little things the betting public doesn't all the time. Although I'm a gambler, this is one of the reasons I hate casinos. They think if you bet with them you should only be allowed to make stupid bets. Card counting shouldn't be illegal. They offer the game, so they should have to deal with the consequences if they face off against someone that can count. They damn sure take the money from those goofing off and that don't know how to play. How many drunks and impoverished do they take from? They refuse to pay if a machine malfunctions on a big win, but whose to say they aren't malfunctioning when we lose? I'm an idiot like a lot of others that succumbs to betting and giving into their rules and getting on the wrong side of the odds.

North of a million dollars lost on Green alone because someone, or a group of someones, didn't do their job correctly.

One, 'somebody gettin' fired.' And two, yes, it's on them.
