Gambling/Poker 14 Years, 8 Months ago Karma: 0  
I play poker for a living in Canada. It is almost accepted in Canada/USA as a trade or professional sport. There is a certain raised eyebrow because it still has that 'fringe' element to it. It is a little risque, not so much as being a pornstar or drug dealer but it definately lies in that "lawless" direction.
I want to visit Japan soon and i wonder if there is much stigma involved with a full-time gambler. I know in the old samurai movies the term gambler was synonomous with Yakuza. At least in the english subtitles. What's your take on this.
Love the videos. You are a great talker and have lots of wisdom that comes out.
Thanks.

I don't think there is much difference to other countries.. but there are always people how look down on gamblers.. that's kinda normal i guess..

I regularly read articles on this gambling news site .. and there are often stories about gamblers from all over the world.. in every country a certain gambling culture exists.. so don't worry to much

Part-time Software Developer for Gambling, Statist 13 Years, 8 Months ago Karma: 0  
To the point: I have a betting system that seems promising; it?s based on some ?special odds? offered by certain sites that were simply not calculated correctly.

I?m willing to share my profits with someone who can put my ideas into easy-to-read code. You can choose between Java and C#.

Please send me your credentials at k1ur2tgei1ger77@yah1oo.c2o.u1k (remove all the 1s and 2s). If you?re not comfortable with statistics, you don?t fit my description or you?re a clumsy programmer please look elsewhere. You?ll need to understand why my system works if you expect to code it correctly.

That said, I?m not going to wait for Mr/Ms Perfect to show up, I?m going to go with the first candidate that fits the bill. These special odds may be gone tomorrow so we need to have this up and running ASAP. Estimated programming time: two weeks or less.

Kurt.
