Thank you sir. That link also goes to a much better source image.

Thanks for the original, I think this gets blurrier every time it gets reposted.

One of these things is not like the other...

I wondered that too. The joke is that every professional listed here is a criminal.

Horse racing is very legal in some states. And there's nothing illegal about playing poker or selling watches

[–]Lleamen 13 points14 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

What constitutes something as very legal? Do you get a "Get out of jail free" card for doing it?

[–]Eternitras 4 points5 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Well. At some point things become so illegal that they're extra legal like the politician!

[–]bitcheslovedroids 4 points5 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It's not playing poker, it's blackjack, if you're a good enough statistitian you could use probability to pretty much predict when to bet high or low, it's not illegal, but it's frowned upon, like masturbating on an airplane

Counting cards profitably does not require a statistical background.

Horse Racing is generally illegal in the US? (genuine question)

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

No, there are plenty of race tracks.

[–]JohnKeel 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It's not. I believe betting on it is highly regulated, though.

[–]Kalium 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It's highly regulated, and online betting is regulated in ways designed to prop up the racetracks.

And there's nothing illegal about playing poker

Uh tell that to fulltilt poker

Good point. However, the illustration does not include a computer

[–]GrownManNaked 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

i think the image is referring to gambling in general which is illegal in most states. The states that do allow gambling generally don't allow gambling outside of casinos or stuff like that.

Indeed. Organising horse races is an honnest job.

[–]GrownManNaked 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

the picture, to me anyways, is implying the man is a bookey(sp?) which is very much illegal.

It's so great to see people so passionate about their work. I mean just observe that look of joy across the athlete's face in particular. That's job satisfaction you can't buy.
