You can cheat to help you gamble. You can not cheat via gambling.

And show me a test to see if a player or coach is gambling. You can't. If a player gambles and is caught - TWuG Aug 4, 19:07 6

- So, in your world, the uncertainty of knowing whether or not the integrity of the game has been compromised is worse than knowing it has been? -- nm - znufrii Aug 4, 19:10 4

      - You can never trust a gambler to play his best game. If playing poorly gets him more than playing well, he'll play poorly. - TWuG Aug 4, 20:00
