Not even mad at you for posting that. Typical case of schadenfreude: the joy of another's misfortune..I feel the same way about the lottery: why do other people get to win besides me sort of like I get to win 100k+ parlays & that's something you could only fantasize about. (Guessing you would've said this had no shot either with Sinner never getting past Djokovic, huh LB?)

Congratulations. I just like to see you always get worked up. Actually had Sinner in that final match so It was a good result. Cockiness is a good trait. This is a lifetime disease though and the higher you climb the more that fall will hurt eventually. You can always just sit on top of the mountain but a little slip and the effort to climb it will lead to more and more slips.
Good luck on your endeavors.

Must be from the upload host site taking them down after a certain point. It'd be a lot easier if there was a "drop image" icon here like at other sites.

But did you have him beating Novak in the SFs is the question? My cashout was 60k before the Finals & I didn't even consider it despite having nothing in the bank & this being ALL IN with about 50k in SF/BAL Futures that obv lost. Here's the thing LB, there's nothing anyone could say on here that's gonna really get to me at this point. Realistically speaking I have 0 expectations of this hitting based on how many things have to go right especially from an injury standpoint. I just know the only way I could ever win this kind of life changing amount gambling (tax free since it's below
300-1) is by having a high enough balance where I could take these shots on solid Futures to the point where one will eventually hit..otherwise I'm just spinning my wheels in place thinking I could ever get anywhere grinding out -110 straight plays daily. That might work for some but eventually one bad beat will always lead to chase, tilt, bust, reload (rinse & repeat). As opposed to these Futures which guarantee huge WDs much like the AO one & this recent one.

One big downside of that is all readers are forced to register and log in to see images in threads. Which is less than 10% of readers usually.
This is the best image host site https://imgbb.com/ click the upload link at top right to drag and drop images. Then select BBcode Full Linked to get embed code.

1) how much tax is it if price on such parlay is more than 300-1?
2) why the difference... is it basically taxed as a lottery on ultra long shots?
and which state is this?..(if I may ask)

24% & it applies to every state where gambling is legalized.

Appreciate the info Opti..much more efficient than postimg.cc
Was wondering if I could get your take on this as a mod? This probably doesn't give you the full context but just based on this chat would consider this heavy handed to just arbitrarily hand out 7 days bans?
