That's wild to me that it was illegal to bet on sports at a building dedicated to gambling.
I don't need Google to tell me that Lefty Rosenthal was some kind of gangster.
Is that the sport with the little, you use like little, big ice cream scoops to whip a ball around?
So explain what you mean by that.
Presumably you don't mean safe because they're not going to get taken out back and worked over with a shovel if they welch on a bet.
All right.
So this is one of those terms I've heard in every gangster movie ever and every episode of The Sopranos or whatever.
And I have no idea what it means.
Well, Vig, you apparently do.
So can you explain what the Vig is for me and everybody else who didn't grow up with an uncle who was a bookie?
Didn't grow up in a mobbed up family.
Okay, without getting too deep in the weeds, what does that mean slash what would that look like?
So at the very least, it's slightly less stupid than just pumping your money into video poker.
Okay, what's expected value again for people who didn't take statistics slash gambling class in college?
Yes, that is definitely really sus like, oh, you're too good.
You're out of here.
And it's not cheating.
You're not cheating.
You're not hacking anything.
It's not even like sportsbook version of card counting or whatever that might be.
