Is fantasy football like the lottery? Is it gambling?Reply
Fantasy sports wagering is more like raffles, horse racing betting, and tournament poker; the players are betting against the other players and not the house. Nevada has legal sports betting so it's obvious why they would ban fantasy betting. New York said it violates existing state law, but Fanduel and Draftking will appeal and already asked their over 600,000 NY players to send emails to the Attorney General.

Living off of the lottery...Reply
The "Wise Guys" in Las Vegas (bookies, professional gamblers in this use of "Wise Guys") figure of all gambling available, there are two and only two things that can be beat consistently, poker and sports betting. Professional sports bettors take an entirely different approach to betting sports than the public does. Absolutely no "heart bets" for one thing (betting your favorite team just because).

Tennessee Lottery should be online?Reply
In Kentucky the Senate majority leader ended the sports betting bill so you'll probably need to contact your state senator and state house rep and hope they have some clout. Casino gambling is legal in New Jersey, but Online wagering is illegal. Online lottery sales in KY began in 2016 and six years later no sports or casino betting.

Tennessee Lottery should be online?Reply
because there isn't much difference in having both. I believe 30 states offer sports betting but some have only in person wagering. In KY we can buy lottery tickets and wager on horse races Online, but no sports betting Online or in person. Another example of political hypocrisy.

Is this legal?Reply
I did read the article (duh, I posted it, nicht var?). How does the fact you can copy and paste prove you actually read it? And if you did read it, why did you say Usually those who run such pools save the best squares for their friends and try to get others to buy the not so good squares. when the article clearly explained the numbers are drawn after the squares are filled? And for your information, where sports betting is legal 13 run baseball pools are far more popular. The su

Picking numbers. Would you rather be Good or Lucky and why?Reply
The gambling industry considers the only two things that can be beat consistently are poker and sports betting. In poker the players are playing against each other and in sports betting it takes a 52.6 win % to break even, because of the vig. Granted in the lottery (jackpot games) it only takes one win but there are very few people who achieve that. Any discussion of any form of gambling that doesn't include the Luck Factor is really lacking something.

I voted yes. It isn't the difference of opinion, that is the put down , it is the name calling, assumptions, and insults that aren't relevant to a subject that isn't neccesarily right or wrong from either perspective. For eg. If I think I will hit big on PowerBall, and someone tells me not in 10 million drawings, you idiot, you'll spend 20million and then you'll be geriatric and to old to spend the money......etc. Play Pick 3, you're odds are better, yes I know, but I want the jackpot, not s

online gambling law
Legal Landscape of Online Gaming Has Not Changed Misleading news stories abound both online and in print regarding the passage of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act. The completely incorrect interpretation states that the new bill essentially outlaws most forms of Internet gambling. The new bill absolutely does no such thing. I have been analyzing legal issues for 25 years. I have gone to court thousands of times interpreting statutes and I have taught new lawyers the correct m

I'm not seeing a connection to the lottery here. According to its about page: VSiN, The Sports Betting Network, is the first sports media company dedicated to providing news, analysis and proprietary data to the millions of Americans who wager on sports and make sports betting a multibillion-dollar industry. Might be useful for the sports bettors here. The ways the balls are loaded into the machine will have an effect on the way they tumble in the first few seconds after the m

Have you ever seen a lotto store quite like this?Reply
Half way around the world in Asia, a gaming epidemic is out of control. The culprit ? Sports Betting. NBA and NCAA. Its Americas top export. Students are skipping class, wagering their tuitions, dropping out of school to steer clear of the enforcers, bankrupting parents who pays up.
