What the story behind your user name on the LP
It's the name I was already using on a sports betting (make-believe bets) website, and what football games start with.

The most successful system in LotteryPost history
Broulir32
The most successful system for any game is being the house and letting the players pick their own losers.
I worked in Vegas for many years and besides the house in all that time I knew one guy who did pretty good at sports betting. But he didn't exactly bet, he just booked other people's action.

Delaware legalizes sports betting
Gambling is gambling, regardless of what kind.
