The ignorance that some people continue to show on this subject is absolutely astounding.Leave the [censored] guy alone already about his religious beliefs,they in no way affect anything in your lives.

Yang should maybe be bashed for his play, but not his character.

He's a great guy imho

It was actually Pascal who demonstrated that believing in God is a +EV wager. After all, if you don't believe in God, you only get looked up when you're behind.

Pascal could only fathom a choice between JC and no god. It's like putting your opponent specifically on AA every time he raises pre-flop. The actual range is quite a bit wider, like, infinity.

My personal favorite Yang quote:

""The Lord was watching over me," replied Yang. "When I had 4-4 and I was all in I prayed, 'Lord, give me a set.' Then the flop had a 4 and I survived that hand. I have seen the miracles of God at the World Series of Poker."




Lawl......"....lord, give me a set."

Now that's [censored] gold!

God must have had a football or baseball game to decide that day and was unavailable.

The only relevant grouping is the subset of gods who threaten you with eternal damnation if you don't believe in them. If there are multiple gods that fit that description, your play is to select the most plausible one and go with that. It certainly can't be +EV to choose none of them.
