Default An Interesting Gambling Situation with NPA Ed Miller

OK, here's the situation...

You are in Vegas, and have had approximately 53 rum and cokes, 3 shots of Patron, and more Stoli than you can remember. Noted Poker Authority Ed Miller mentions that his maid is coming to clean his apartment tomorrow. It's already tomorrow.

I ask Noted Poker Authority Ed Miller if his maid is Latina.

Noted Poker Authority Ed Miller says "yeah."

I asked Noted Poker Authority Ed Miller if she was hot.

Noted Poker Authority Ed Miller said "nooooooo."

I said "That's too bad. Hot Latina maids are great, so I've heard. Do you think that's a porn website?"

Noted Poker Authority Ed Miller said "hotlatinamaids.com?"

I said "Yeah. What's the price you put on that? Name a line, and I'll take a side."

After much careful deliberation, Noted Poker Authority Ed Miller returns a line of -350 for the site being porn. By porn, I mean if I type in this address, then I get porn without clicking any further (beyond a potential Parental Warning Thingie).

What's my play?

I'd take it. That's gotta be porn.

What's the O/U for % of people who have read this thread typing that in to see? (downstairs with wife and kids so it's not 100% [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img])

It would totally rule if you owned this site and this was a ploy to get traffic, though I doubt that is the case.

There wasn't even a Parental Warning Thingie.

-350 was waay to easy. If there was a site at all, it had to be porn. The only way you lose that bet is if someone is sitting on the name and hasn't built a site yet.

I thought there was a decent chance of that.

I think that's usually going to result in what happened when I went there, you get linked to another porn site. I raelly can't imagine typing in that url and not getting porn. I think someone like -1000 is probably a better line.

Ed's married. I would think he's an expert on internet porn by now.

In the interest of gambling research I checked it out and clicked on the link that brings you "more naughty latin maids"(I'm very thorough) and was surprised to find that Mason has a spread on the second page.
