And I thought that people hosting gambling games in RuneScape with house odds of 55 x2 was absurd house odds, but this is ridiculous. It shows just how badly people understand odds, of course the slot machine exists to take money and then taking 1/4th of their money on top that. It must be kids spending their parents money on 'adult' things, I don't have any other way to make sense of it.

Imagine winning it big and there is a whole room of people behind you in line all let down.

I don't see this as any different than grubhub delivering food for a fee.

Got caught and phone call was made to let them go? Seems like a simple and plausible explanation.

It probably competes too much with their online poker and slots

Not only is it completely inappropriate, but one of the sheets also mixes up 'to' and 'too'.
Like another commenter said, it's so bad you have to wonder if it was intentional.

It's easy to joke about that festival, but real small businesses were wrecked because they weren't paid. And people could have gotten hurt or sick.

Ok. Now hear me out...
If this becomes Fyre Fest X 10, then all of biggest "influencers" will flock to a remote island.
Once there, we can blockade the island and cut off all internet connection to the outside world.
BUT, we can let them post content for each other and fight to the death for attention.
Then the world can begin to heal.

I think you could do it all-in for less than $2500 which isn’t cheap but is very affordable for an island vacation in the Bahamas. Plenty of “regular” people could do that, especially for the kind of once in a lifetime experience they were promising.

It’s all good until you hit the jackpot, they get the winnings and you have to pay the taxes.

This sounds like an honest business operating inside a casino.
I ‘bet’ the casino sets this up as an official in house service.

"It was basically, the promises that got him last time"
Lol yeah if thats what you want to call advertising and selling rooms in Villas that didn't exist then sure thats what got him.
He should fire ahead though, anyone who buys anything from him ever again deserves to be parted with their money

So the N word is just dandy, and there's nothing that can be done about guns firing themselves. This paints quite the picture
