What a loser you allow it [/quote]

Allow it? He’s a grown man. He’s won six-figures. After building a large balance across apps he now transfers weekly winnings into a joint account. He’s playing with their money now. I don’t understand gambling, but I understand that our account balance keeps growing. You do you.[/quote]

This is not true. No one actually makes money from gambling in the long run. The margins taken are too high.[/quote]
Apparently if you win often enough you get banned by the app and have to switch.

My DH and I are big sports watchers but do not gamble on it, but we do play blackjack once in a while if available. I think universally available sports gambling is already making society worse - many players in record saying they and their families are getting threats. Even college kids are.

At minimum these need to be regulated so you can’t bet with credit cards.[/quote]That’s terrible that they are hooking the kids. [/quote]
That wasn’t about college kids gambling - which is bad enough. That was about college athletes facing threats from gamblers who lose money because the college athletes aren’t perfect. People suck.

Not college but here’s a 25-year-old Orioles pitcher who faced death threats.
