Surf Betting is Legal

263

in Australia, betting on everything is legal.  and even betting on each heat in the WSL is legal too.  isn’t that crazy?  so you can bet everyday on your favorite surfer.

we always go to the sports bar to check out the odds.  it’s very interesting to see who’s favored to win the heat before it even starts.  nobody knows better than surfers right?

so when Griffin Colapinto was favored to beat Seth Moniz 3 to 1, i would have bet a million dollars on Seth.   but since i don’t bet, i just thought to myself “lots of people will lose money on this one.”

one smart player put down $50 on Seth and won $157.50.  so if i did bet, my $1M would be $3M in a day!  next year i might bet a million if the odds are like this again!

there is a casino downstairs from my hotel.  there are slot machines, beer, live music, and dancing.  such a cool place to hang out.

Seth and Tony playing the slot machines.  all winners tonight!   i’m glad gambling is illegal in Hawaii.  if it was legal, the homeless rate would quadruple.

you see the weirdest things when you’re traveling.  Where’s Waldo?
