Gambling as an Analyst
Does anyone have an insight to sports gambling as an analyst in a state that does not have legal sports betting? I currently use a site like Bovada/Mybookie. Is there a compliance issue that could lead to termination?

Why would your work find out about your mybookie account?.... They’re not trawling through your personal web browser looking for BBW porn and bets on the Magic to win the finals.
Just don't use your work computer.
Jeffrey Epstein got away with massive scale human trafficking for ~15 years. I’m sure you can manage to keep your gambling account under the ropes.
If your state applies the "dominant factor test" you may not even be "gaming" but applying a skill.
But even if not, in most places simple betting should only be a misdemeanor. IF you get caught.
lol my BB specifically states employees arent allowed to gamble but how tf they gonna find out and do? if i wanna lose money betting on the knicks let me lose money betting on the knicks
This - just do cash bets at MSG or whatever the NYC Sportsbook locations will be
My workplace doesn't allow us to gamble, unfortunately, I mean, the employers will definitely find out as soon as we open a tab with an online casino.
However, betting is something different from gambling as our employers think, which we usually use for our purposes.
Sports betting, as for me, is even more profitable than even some traditional casino games. Perhaps, our employers are less concerned about sports betting since it requires higher intellectual skills. I mean, you need to be very good at counting sports betting odds(especially when it comes to football), you need to analyze all the ranges and tables with the highest level of accuracy. Actually, you can earn a lot of money betting.
Personally,I wouldn't recommend it on a mental health level. I don't gamble but I've had short-term call option positions which are basically gambling. I've got too much stress at work....adding more stress on top of that with money on the line is just too much. If you do gamble, I would highly recommend choosing to do so in quieter deal flow periods.
At first glance, it seems that gambling is just luck, but in fact it is a deep analysis of the small details

What analysts? In roulette, only mathematical statistics or probability theory works. In short, it is difficult to predict something without calculations, so I do not know what kind of analytics can be in gambling. Everything depends only on luck. In poker, the skill and feeling of the opponent decide a little, but luck is still the main thing. So I don't think you can be in that position. Why do I say that? Yes, because I played for a very long time on different gambling sites like this slot malaysia. And I can say with a firmness that only luck and nothing more decides in gambling.
as for me it's not the best idea
Is there like a workplace rule to prohibit betting? I mean, you should be very careful if that's the case. Luckily, my workplace doesn't have this type of problem, lol.
I don't think you'll have any problems with that. But it's a waste of time tbh
It's illegal for a reason.
