We Lost. The Month Isn't Over! EP202

Every gambler has been told the same thing by somebody who does not gamble: do not chase your losses. TRG thinks that advice is naive, and this week he introduces Casino Wisdom number 35 to explain why. Plus a look inside the sports betting experiment, including what happened when the tool got tested against a full season of realgames. And in the War Room, the honest version of what a simulator can and cannot tell you about a night on the floor. Finally, in the Virtual VIP Lounge, TRG would just like a little empathy.
