How does everyone feel about the Pritzker gambling story?

[Vinca]

I had been thinking of him as a 2028 possible contender, but the story about his big win in Las Vegas and remarks given later kind of bother me. Nice he gave the million+ to charity, but I got the impression he's a big fan of gambling given his promotion of it in Illinois while talking about the revelation. IMO - and I could be all alone - promoting something that has, in the past, become a dangerous addiction for some, is not a good thing.

On edit: Guess I'm in the minority and I hope I don't refer back to this post and say, "I told you so." No one seems to be appreciating what has been the sorry fact for many elections. Democrats are not allowed to get away with the same things Republicans are. If it was found out Trump is a gambler, he would be a hero. If it had come out Joe Biden was a gambler, he would have been Satan himself. Anyway, just my opinion.

[Mysterian]

1. Who gives a shit?

Lots of people gamble for fun.

The pearl-clutching is hilarious.

[Vinca]

4. I don't think it's terribly hilarious when people become addicted and lose everything.

One day I was standing in line at the bank listening to a woman whine to the teller that a gambling site had drained her account after she'd previously authorized payments. No grocery money for her.

[leftstreet]

7. What's not hilarious is the price of groceries n/t

[Bernardo de La Paz]

53. Epstein is not hilarious either.

[choie]

102. Nor is losing our democracy.

n/t

[markodochartaigh]

20. Alcohol has also ruined tens of millions of lives in the US.

But I wouldn't refuse to vote for someone who frequently had cocktails or wine with dinner.

The biggest type of theft in the US is wage theft. But if I refused to vote for anyone who had taken money from a corporation I would basically only be voting for the local mosquito control board chair.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

56. And whose fault would that be?

[MorbidButterflyTat]

94. How is Gov. Pritzker responsible for that?

[Happy Hoosier]

121. People blow their money on all kinds of crap.

As long as he can afford it, it’s his money.

[leftstreet]

5. +1

[BannonsLiver]

11. The concern is almost quaint in the age of Trump and all of his corruption.

Gambling?

[Cha]

87. lol Giving it to Charity! Horrors!

omg.

[Conjuay]

40. Friend, I worked at the Trotters, one of my first jobs.

Stand at a track and watch a women actually in tears plead with her husband not to piss away the mortgage payment.

Yeah, it's fucking hilarious.

[valleyrogue]

118. Comparing him to Bill Bennett, who really DID have a major gambling problem, is hilarious. n/t

[Bobstandard]

2. Legal gambling is a time honored sport.

Compare to serial adultery, fraud, and rape.

[PatSeg]

3. Doesn't sound like much of an issue to me

Hardly a game-changer.

[Vinca]

6. Guess I disagree on that. This is gold to the opposition.

[bluestarone]

12. Compare that to republicons of today and i say

You got to be kidding!! WTH?

[BannonsLiver]

13. So you don't think they'd find something else if he never gambled?

Why be so eager to allow them to define our candidates, who runs, and what the messaging around that person is? It's a classic "why we lose" mentality.

[PatSeg]

34. I suppose

Though they don't need anything real to attack opponents, they'll just make crap up.

It is mindboggling how they use minor or even nonexistent stories to try and undermine Democrats when the corruption and scandals among republican politicians is off the charts. Instead of addressing those issues, they just deflect their many shortcomings to Democrats. So many of their tactics are obscene.

I remember how they treated John Kerry and tried to attack his service record from the Vietnam War. Hillary and her emails and Benghazi. Obama's birth certificate. Biden's son's laptop. They don't really need scandals, they'll just write new ones.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

95. It's also mindboggling how some Dems fall for it

[PatSeg]

112. Yes, sadly like Lucy and Charlie Brown with the football

Though I think they are finally waking up and aren't falling for the same old sh*t over and over again. Gavin Newsom seems to be setting a new trend and he's really good at it.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

127. Definitely!

He's killing it, and I love it!

[PatSeg]

128. He certainly is a morale booster

at a time when we really need it. Governor Pritzker as well!

[MarineCombatEngineer]

57. Anything is gold to the MAGAt's,

shit they make up and lie about is gold to them.
This is a BIG nothingburger.

[Happy Hoosier]

122. How? NT

[BannonsLiver]

8. I couldn't possibly care less about his gambling.

These kooky purity tests really have to end if we are to survive as a party.

[bamagal62]

9. Why do we care?

[LymphocyteLover]

10. I don't care and he sounds like he was good at it. I'm more concerned that he had IL state troopers go after protestors

today:

State troopers in riot gear just plowed into the crowd, started arresting protesters and clergy.

[SocialDemocrat61]

14. President's are supposed to

bankrupt casinos.

[EnergizedLib]

15. What Pritzker gambling story?

America is coming apart at the seams, and I’m supposed to care about this?

[Gore1FL]

16. I'm missing the scandal.

He did something legal that he considers fun, was successful at it, and donated the proceeds to charity.

Any interpretation of wrong-doing requires a large leap.

[vanlassie]

47. He's Super Rich.

End of story.

[markodochartaigh]

17. I personally do not gamble.

But I have benefited from those who do. I have been several times to the Star Trek Convention in Las Vegas. That city and its amenities were built on gambling.

I care what a candidate's policies are, and especially now, whether they will stand up against the Republicans. I don't care what a candidate does in their personal life as long as it is legal.

And I sure as hell don't care what reich-wingers, or those too pure to dirty themselves fighting for democracy tell I me I should care about.

[leftstreet]

18. Nope. It makes him seem cool

He took on the house, beat the odds. Winner!

Then entire fucking country buys weekly lotto and scratch tickets. Spends weekends at res casinos

Come on

[JustAnotherGen]

19. 1. First I'm hearing of it and

2. I don't care.

3. We have to start thinking like magapub voters. They didn't care about voting for a 34 times convicted felon and adjudicated rapist who if we believe the many women who encountered if him via Epstein - is part of a pedophile ring cover up.

A Billionaire without a scent of being a scurrilous thug having a big gambling win? I'm not looking to fall in love - I'm looking for a dominant ruler who can cut the magapubs down to size.

[unblock]

21. 45 of the 50 states have a state-run lottery.

with a few exceptions, the government is not merely willing to allow gambling, but is an active participant in it, even advertising and promoting it.

never mind that we're in an era where the other party is happy to vote by the millions for a convicted fraudster and certified rapist and so on, a politician participating in a legal and government-endorsed activity is hardly anything to be bothered by.

if the other side had a nearly perfect candidate, then i pay attention to such minor issues. but this politics the way it is now, we have to learn to ignore such minor issues.

[WmChris]

24. As long

As long as he didn't win the Illinois lottery who cares?

[unblock]

26. Pretty much.

[rsdsharp]

107. We got a state lottery about the same time we legalized horse racing.

Our then gub’ner for life, Terry Braindead, argued that horse racing was just good clean family fun, but that the legislature should not allow a lottery, because organized crime would run it!

He was a genius I tells ya. When I was in my first year of law school I was under a lot of pressure. We were broke, I wasn’t working, and I wasn’t sure I could hack law school. I used to go look at Terry Brandstad’s class picture, and tell myself, “If that dumb son of a bitch can make it, so can I!”

And I was right!

[sop]

22. Gambling will help him with the MAGA crowd.

Buy a big truck and take up hunting, too.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

96. Oh please

[markodochartaigh]

23. If we wait for

" The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, holding aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that our candidate is to carry Excalibur."

We will be waiting for a long time. And anyway:
"Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony."

[unblock]

28. Dang, i can never find my coconuts when I need them....

[radicalleft]

48. Point of order

Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

[LuvLoogie]

79. Can we replace the electoral college...

with a watery tart?

[SWBTATTReg]

25. A lot of people gamble, and that's okay. What we don't hear, is how much did they lose prior to winning big?

How many visits to the Casino in where they lost tons of money?

[bearsfootball516]

27. I honestly could not possibly care less.

[Paladin]

29. Doesn't even register, compared to the $ haul trump is making off the presidency. (nt)

[RainCaster]

30. I don't care

[Ocelot II]

31. I couldn't care less. He's got a lot of money and if he wants to fritter it away in Las Vegas

or in some other legal manner, that's up to him and none of anyone else's business. Complaining about it is like criticizing someone for drinking just because some other people are alcoholics.

[Mz Pip]

32. I should be so lucky.

He got lucky. He donated the money. End of story as far as I’m concerned.

[Mike Nelson]

33. To me, the gambling story is...

... a negative. It reminds us Pritzker is wealthy - a billionaire. How do billionaires play? They can gamble with millions of dollars. He's probably lost a few, also. Still, I don't see this one story as a deal-breaker. He is doing his job, and like Newsom, works for the people in his state - and the entire USA. Also, I hear some very wealthy people play like Epstein and Maxwell. If it's legal and declared on the tax forms, it's playing by the rules.

[BannonsLiver]

39. You presume people care about someone being wealthy

There are those who don’t see the wealthy as evil cretins, but rather as aspirational figures. Sure, that’s lame and delusional, but it is a dynamic that exists in our culture nonetheless.

[Aviation Pro]

35. So, are we starting down the

”We must have perfection” route with our potential 2028 candidates? To paraphrase Winston, “Have we learned nothing?”

[LetMyPeopleVote]

36. The man is a billionaire

Who cares. This is not a significant amount of money for him

[Silent Type]

37. Even before that, I had my concerns about him. Like him, I just wonder whether he can pick up 5% or so of GOPer

voters in 2024 and 70% or so of those that sat on the sidelines that we need in midterms and 2028. The image of someone sitting at a Blackjack table with a visor on gambling is probably not good optics. But compared to trump admin, he's a saint.

No question I'll vote for him if he wins primaries.

[Midwestern Democrat]

114. I'll vote for whoever the Democratic nominee is, but I have my doubts about Pritzker winning any state Harris

didn't win - at this very early stage, Mark Kelly and Josh Shapiro are topping my list.

[Silent Type]

115. Good way to put Pritzker's appeal to voters in key states.

[50 Shades Of Blue]

38. Bothers me too. I consider gambling an absolute blight on humanity.

[BannonsLiver]

41. I heard he spat on a sidewalk once.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

97. OMG!

My tender sensibilities!!

[leftstreet]

42. You don't buy scratch tickets? Lotto?

That would make you very unique in this country

[50 Shades Of Blue]

45. Nope.

[DFW]

89. Is that so prevalent back home now?

My brother, sister, elder daughter and their families all still live in the USA and they don’t buy those things at all. At the office in Dallas, if there’s anyone who does buy them, not a one has spoken up to say so. But we don’t ask, either.

[leftstreet]

91. Well, this wiki is from 2018

In fiscal 2018, Americans spent $77.7 billion on various lotteries, up by about $5 billion from 2017.[1]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lotteries_in_the_United_States

I'm sure there's more current data, but yeah it's a big deal

[MichMan]

43. What charity was it given to?

All I've seen is statements that he was planning on donating it. He won it in 2023

[Ritabert]

44. Non-issue to me. I could care less.

[bluestarone]

46. Guess my question to you, would be

Would you vote against a person that will save our democracy and stop what's happening today in our country, because he gambles? After watching republicons take everything away everything America stands for. As an American, HE has as much right to gamble as YOU do NOT to gamble. Can you not see this?

[MichMan]

50. Is he the only choice on a primary ballot?

[bluestarone]

54. Kinda think that is why we are the way we are today?

[Ocelot II]

59. It's his money; what's the problem? He paid taxes on his winnings and is giving it to charity.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

64. ....

Meanwhile, the majority of Americans are struggling to house and feed themselves and their families

And that's Gov. Pritzker's fault?

You might want to ask yourself whose fault this is.....here's a hint: it ain't his fault so why the snide remark about Gov. Pritzker?

[uponit7771]

74. Same, not a game changer cause his middle income advocacy speaks for itself

[bob4460]

51. Concern troll

[obamanut2012]

52. I don't mean this snarky, but what is the issue?

He has the money to gamble, and we all know prohibition of vices doesn't stop it. He isn't raping sex workers or anything. I like to throw away a few hundred dollars a couple times a year at a casino, and I pay all my bills and am an upstanding member of society.

Most people who gamble can control it, just like most people who drink are not alcoholics.

[greatauntoftriplets]

55. Taking on the house and beating it requires strategic thinking.

This is a necessary quality in a governor, and a president. He's my governor and I support him.

[GoCubsGo]

78. Yes, compare that to the guy who bankrupted his casino(s).

And, who is currently forbidden from running one in Las Vegas. None of which stopped tens of millions of people from giving him their vote for the highest office in the land. Three fucking times.

[greatauntoftriplets]

98. That's so true.

The irony boggles the mind.

[Keepthesoulalive]

58. So what do you propose

There is nothing the democrats can do that will make the media and the republicans not play dirty. The reason we lose is we are always looking for something to be unhappy about and then we amplify it. Hate ,corruption and assault eliminate candidates from our side but if he chooses to gamble so what.
Please stop handwringing over every possible thing the party of corruption can use against us. We do that to our candidates ourselves.

[ProfessorGAC]

60. Big Gaming In Vegas...

...gave preponderantly to Rs at both the state & federal level.
Look up Adelsen & Wynn.
Gambling support does not provide ammunition to the right.

[doc03]

61. Don't care, it is his money.

[Sailingdiver]

62. Who cares.

He got lucky. Not like he screwed a bunch of people by not paying them or cheating them out of anything.

[Ping Tung]

63. Politicians lie, fib, exaggerate, and, on rare occasions, tell the truth. *Shrug".

Part of being civil demands lying.

I.e. New mom shows a picture of new kid. "Isn't he cute!" , He's gonna be a movie star", He looks smart".

Said even if the kid looks like a potato bug.

"I'm gonna have to stay home. I've got the flu."
"No really, it tastes great but I had a huge lunch."
"Not tonight, I have a headache."
"The dog ate my homework."

There would be a lot more homicides, lost jobs, and divorces if we didn't lie.

[MichMan]

66. The gambling winnings were on the 2024 tax return he provided

[Ping Tung]

70. It looks like the Republican attempt at "Gotchya" politics blew up in their faces.

I suppose we can expect an apology from the Trump Inc.

[MichMan]

101. The Pritzker campaign just released his 2024 tax returns on Wednesday which is when it became known.

The story about the gambling winnings has been reported by nearly every media outlet the last couple days.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

99. What was on any of the tax returns *rump provided?

Oh, right. HE DIDN'T PROVIDE ANY.

[OneGrassRoot]

65. Re: your edit...

As long as people on the left (not the ones who continue to hound Kamala) don’t push for perfection or purity, I don’t think it should be a big deal. The right-wing isn’t always what destroys us; it’s usually people on our side always concerned about optics and how the other side will use it.

[BlueTsunami2018]

67. I care more that he's a billionaire than the fact that he gambles.

Nobody gets that rich without exploiting the fuck out of people.

[questionseverything]

86. He was born rich

[PCIntern]

68. And people wonder why we lose....

Loser mentality pervades this thinking.

John Kerry won medals for his military service and when they were questioned by Republicans, there was no vociferous defense of the man and his service.

What SHOULD have been said was : How the fuck dare you do such a thing. Your candidate was AWOL for his National Guard service and you fucking DARE to open your mouths about the Senator’s medals, you fucking traitorous shithead???

But NOOOOO…. we sat around and politely clucked about the need for “appropriateness” of our response. And here we fucking are.

Their Motherfucker is proud of “grabbing women by their pussies” and we are discussing the merits or demerits of a guy who legally gambled and actually won? This has gotta fucking stop. Right fucking now. If you don’t take the gloves off now and hit them in their balls, we are finished. Done.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

103. Wow.

[krawhitham]

69. Made him seem like an out of touch billionaire

[MarineCombatEngineer]

72. How?

How does this make his seem like an out of touch billionaire?

He didn't keep the money, he donated it to charities and he paid his taxes on it, so what's the problem?

[Cha]

100. Gov Pritzker Won the Money for Charity! So

Out of Touch! smh

[krawhitham]

116. BS, It was not a charity event

The only reason it was known was because it was on his financial disclosure, because HE RECEIVED $1.4 Million.

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/jb-pritzker-won-14-million-vegas-playing-blackjack-rcna237961

“I went on vacation with my wife, with some friends. I was incredibly lucky. You have to be to end up ahead, frankly, going to a casino anywhere — it was in Las Vegas — and I like to play cards,”

As a deflection he mention that he also has started a charity in Chicago

https://abc7.com/post/illinois-governor-jb-pritzker-explains-how-he-won-14-million-gambling-las-vegas/18025942/

Pritzker noted that he had founded a charitable poker tournament in Chicago "that has raised millions of dollars for the Holocaust Museum here, and particularly to stand up for civil rights."

It was in his 2024 tax return that means the event happened in 2023, so in 2023 he won $1.4 million and now in 2025 his campaign was required to disclosed the winnings.

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/10/16/gov-jb-pritzker-reports-1-4-million-in-gambling-winnings/86731483007/

The massive winnings were reported on Pritzker’s 2024 tax returns

So 2 years after winning the money he now suddenly says he will be giving the money to charity, wonder why that could be?
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/jb-pritzker-won-14-million-vegas-playing-blackjack-rcna237961

The governor will be donating the money to charity, according to his campaign.

Why would someone 2 years after winning a large money suddenly announce he was giving that money to charity?
Maybe because it made him seem like an out of touch billionaire and he want to be POTUS

[krawhitham]

117. No he GOING to donate the money

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/jb-pritzker-won-14-million-vegas-playing-blackjack-rcna237961

The governor WILL be donating the money to charity, according to his campaign.

He's donating the money TWO YEARS after he won it, because it was bad PR and it made him seem like an out of touch billionaire


It was in his 2024 tax return that means the event happened in 2023, so in 2023 he won $1.4 million and now in 2025 his campaign claims he will be donating it.

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/10/16/gov-jb-pritzker-reports-1-4-million-in-gambling-winnings/86731483007/

The massive winnings were reported on Pritzker’s 2024 tax returns

[MarineCombatEngineer]

124. And????

He's going to donate it, I was wrong, but the point is that this is a big nothingburger.
I couldn't care less if he donates, keeps or spends it, it's none of my, nor anyone else's business what he does with his winnings.

I don't know why people are getting their undies in a twist over this.

[leftstreet]

77. LOL no it didn't

Trump BANKRUPTS casinos! Pritzker BEAT the casino!

In a world where everyone and their grandmas buy scratch tickets, lotto, spend weekends at res casinos, this seems totally "in touch."

Pfft. At his income level, his ante is probably equivalent to you or me throwing down $1

[Hassin Bin Sober]

71. Trump immediately bankrupted a casino. He had to have his daddy buy chips (and not use them) - an illegal loan

J.B. Is smart and beat a casino.

[awesomerwb1]

73. omg So what??

[tonekat]

75. Can we not let Perfect be the enemy of Pretty Good?

This is not the time for Dems to form a circular firing squad again.

[RandySF]

76. I feel nothing about it.

[OutNow]

80. I play poker every week. What's the problem?

I play poker every week. Low stakes. I usually lose money. It's a hobby. Lots of folks play poker. Some are liberals some are MAGA. During the last election I wore my Harris / Walz camo hat at the poker room. Some folks liked it, some folks really didn't. Oh well. Let's worry about real issues like the end of our democracy.

[NeoTrajan]

81. Dude is a billionaire

I've played in Poker tournaments

I almost always win at the Blackjack table

(Secret? ... DON'T hit on any thing over 11 - Let the dealer take that card)

The American people aren't going to be offended by this, unless their goal was to be offended by anything Dems do

[murielm99]

82. Oh, who cares?

[ZDU]

83. Trump owned a casino...

next.

[LogDog75]

84. Pritzker is a billionaire and that doesn't help his chances in the Presidential primary

The Orange Turd has given the billionaires large tax breaks while giving crumbs to ordinary Americans at the expense of those who rely on Medicare, Medicad, and SNAP benefits. The image of him gambling and winning huge amounts of money is a disconnect to average Americans who live paycheck-to-paycheck. If furthers the idea of there is an expanding gap between the wealthy and the middle classes and the poor. That's an optic that won't sit too well with middle class and poor voters. It'll look like he's another billionaire out to make more money by becoming the President.

[leftstreet]

92. Or, it helps him

He grew up with wealth. Maybe he'd be less likely to see the office as a way to grift, scam, and increase his fortunes.

[LearnedHand]

85. My first reaction was "here's another entitled billionaire who doesnt understand the impact of ...

casually throwing around mentions of large amounts of money.” It bothered me quite a bit. I don’t care if he gambles, but rich guy winning even more riches isn’t the flex he thinks it is. Keep it private, dude.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

105. It was on his tax return.

He wasn't bragging. Jeez.

[niyad]

88. My take: unless he was gambling with embezzled state funds, as a

previous scumbag governor of LA was purported to do (I cannot verify about the state funds, but the woman who generally accompanied him was not his wife), and as long a it was in a legally-recognized venue, I truly do not care.


My perspective may be a biit skewed, having lived around the gaming industry for many years, but right now, a legal gambling win is not on my list of concerns.

[Hekate]

90. It's not a "revelation" if he revealed it on purpose. I know people who gamble for recreation...

… and not addiction. It’s legal. So are alcohol and cigarettes. And pot, where I live.

My sins are few. I don’t get the attraction of gambling, tobacco has addicted more than one member of my family so I’ve never smoked, gummies for insomnia give me a hangover, and so on. I’m a very moderate drinker of Scotch and Irish whiskey.

The Pritzker story strikes me as being in the category of the DU game of “Let’s eliminate all the governors. “ Now that’s a game I actively discourage my friends from participating in. Beware.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

93. Perfectly fine with it.

It could be breaking news that the MAGAt racist "president" is a convicted felon, traitor to the US, known rapist, while BFFing a convicted pedophile, and a corrupt conman, pathological liar, psychotic sadist, etc.

Meanwhile a popular, effective Democrat indulged in a completely legal thing, that anonymous "others" have become addicted to. Uh oh, what about Dems who smoke? Or drink? Or have sex? Or....?

Just say no to purity testing Democrats.

[NoMoreRepugs]

104. Purity police alert. Tens of BILLIONS are gambled every year in the U.S. What's next,

he occasionally burps?

[FakeNoose]

106. You're making a big assumption here

Just because he won a big pot, doesn't mean he's addicted to gambling.

The story he told was that he only played for a short time, and happened to get a lucky roll, or maybe it was a lucky draw. I don't know. It happens. If he really was an addicted gambler (and he's not) he probably would have stayed at the betting table and lost the whole pot. That's what gambling addicts do.

[Vinca]

108. I didn't say he was, but he did say he enjoyed cards and then promoted casinos in his state. My only gripe is that

it is an activity that can become addictive (there's a reason for Gamblers Anonymous) and will most likely have a negative impact on a future presidential run. Voters also might not look kindly at a candidate who has so much money to wager he can win a million bucks in one sitting. You have to remember that Democrats are always, always held to a higher standard than Republicans, like it or not. Look at 2016 with Hillary vs. Trump. Here you had women lined up around the block accusing Trump of sexual assault, you have audio of him bragging about being allowed to grab women, you have a long record of bankruptcies, philandering, etc., etc., etc., but Hillary's emails, which amounted to nothing, brought her down. In 2020, Trump had all of that plus 34 felony convictions and pending cases, 2 impeachments, more sexual assault claims and shady dealings, but Kamala uttered one line about not changing anything Biden had done and it sank her. Unless the world sudden turns on its axis and things dramatically change, it will be wash, rinse and repeat for 2028 and we cannot afford that if we expect to retain our democracy.

[milestogo]

109. During the height of his greatness Michael Jordan used to gamble into the wee hours of the night.

Clearly, he had money to burn. The amount he lost did not affect his ability to provide for his family. It did not affect his ability to win professional basketball games the next day. And he enjoyed it.

People said it made him a bad role model, but he never asked to be a role model.

[sunflowerseed]

110. Dont care! Non story to me have ya seen the other guy!

[Torchlight]

111. I think it might rise to the grand heights a benign non-issue

anything beyond that will be chewable Vitamin-C(oncern) for the FUD crowd. Gambling doesn't concern me. People who win or lose gambling don't concern me. We all have out own perspectives on it, as well as our interpretations of tea leaves.
