Professional gamblers like to have free rolls and create overlays. That's how they make a living.

This is whether they are hurting or not.

I would be more worried if he didnt take the opportunity.

Jane Street Capital. 50-50 split.

[/ QUOTE ]

Mr. Sklansky, what's the lowest split you would consider in a stake in order to make the offer more profitable than playing it yourself, factoring in the work involved on your part having a real dollar value as well? If it's none of my business, I understand.

Not hurting, proving his intelligence again. I would give a speech for $25, I give my son them all the time and he doesn't even listen!

Just slap a few note-cards together, put them in order, and wing it.

If someone wanted to pay me to give a 2 hour speech on such topics as grinding out 10 tables online I don't think it would be too difficult.
And I'm somebody who has never done such a speech. Whereas I'm pretty sure Sklansky has stood before an audience to give a speech on this topic or that on several occasions.

Not to dis you, but giving a speech can be pretty hard - if you want it to be good. If you don't have any experience, it's way harder. Once you're very experienced and knowledgeable about the subject matter, you can wing a bit more.

Dunk,

"Do you guys actually think DS is +EV in the 50k HORSE event?"

I'm just surprised that he didn't feel his EV was higher.
