PR:BF2 Online Gambling?

Post by Vicious302 »

Online gambling has been gaining steam. Recently my state, Delaware, completely legalized online gambling for interstate but congress has not speciffically outlawed online gambling, thus you do see online poker gambling. It may be feesable, it may not be, that aside, Not discussing the legal red tape and possibility, would you be interested in playing for money or some form of credit or prize?

Typically a person can except to spend $50-300US, (30-200UK) at a casino, forgive my numbers. On a low scale, paying for parts, spare change, on a high scale, having a second job, or proffesional gaming career.

Every serious sport or game comes down to one thing, money, it takes money to run servers, pay your bills, make time to play games, buy parts, pay off your kids/partner/boss for some free time. Is it time to take PR to that level? Would it help add that edge PR really needs to be played right? No more wasting the bomb car. No more giving up, or going out without proper medics. Yes there are tournaments, this isn't just a tournament, this isn't about the community, this is about the competition. Thoughts? 8-)

Do you have a gambling addiction?

No, seriously. How do you even make bets on a FPS game. I mean you can like bet on a team winning a round but if your in that game wouldn't you want your team to win anyways?

There's no outside wagering, so no one could "throw" a game. Say you bet 50, you win 100. You lose, you win nothing. You bet 300, you win 600. If having 300 on something doesn't make you want to win more or your saying you always want to win just as much, I think you should try it first.

We could even do 40 on 60 Insurgency rounds where there's over and under so maybe you bet 50 and only win 83 as an insurgent with 60 players or go BLUFOR and win 125 with only 40 players.
