Ludwig could tell a thousand stories about him -losing or gaining money- and no one would ever get tired of it

I would

That Ludbud seemed legit though

He seems legit, now is he doing it legally. Prolly not

@@Gelusss you can watch it as you’d do with any other podcast, mostly playing it in the background while doing something else

@@Firelove7k All that lootbox training wasn't for nothing

Exactly. In Vegas they have bookie agents. A "go between" you and the bookies. Basically a middle man who is good at what he does. BTW, I like your name. 🖤💛

That makes sense but why don't you just put more of your money in and make 100% of what that makes. Is it cus its more fun doing it with friends?

@@xeonbladev18 I do it for fun low risk, high reward since I have a full time job. Down the road this could be full time though. I love doing it for friends and also it's vested interest, win feels alot better when I'm winning for them too.

Ya some ppl don't understand that some bets need to be made in person. Just like rich ppl be having other go to auctions for them.

I wont be surprised if that's what will happen but i dont think Ludwig would mind if he takes a commission, by the sounds of things if that guy is as good as he is the amount Ludwig gave him isn't too much to him and he wont scam Lud for that much

bro hows eric rosen doing, ur legendary

Too true. Take your winnings and go

The dumbest thing in vegas is going

Unless you know how to gamble apparently

@@oaklogs7779 counting cards isn't chasing a win. It's chasing decks with a good amount of high cards to maximize your odds of winning.

Dude takes this shit to a whole new level, it isn't just making money its a fucking science to him.

@@TheBGYeti Sports are mostly analytics so it really is lol

Na he def doesnt care enough too, hes def doing these bets for his money too, so if hes that rich he doesnt care

@@TheBGYeti mans literally exploited irl money glitch

This did not age well

Why do professional betters ask for commission anyways? Can't they just bet more of their own money and make 100% of that? (Unless they have way less money but that doesn't seem like the case here) Edit: thanks y'all. Didn't think about the risk part and making the income somewhat stable by betting for multiple, returning customers

@@xeonbladev18 risk free money plus bigger bet=more dopamine

@@xeonbladev18 because they're doing the hard part for you?

@@xeonbladev18 I imagine it's a combination of less risk to lose other people's money compared to your own + taking advantage of the comped benefits while betting other's money (free money to gamble, etc).

@@xeonbladev18 Less risk. They get to gamble with essentially "free" money. If they bet and you lose, oh well, they take no loss. If they bet and win, they get a nice paycheck and an almost guaranteed return customer. You're gonna go back to the guy who won you so much money, after all. If you manage to get a bunch of customers you can pull a very shady move to guarantee money. If you have 9-10 people, and you use their funds to bet every way on a race, and take a commission from the winners, you're guaranteed to make money. Generally if you're charismatic enough you can convince the losers to stick around and reinvest, and the winners will do the same. You just keep skimming 10% off every race you bet on, sometimes more if it's one where you can win multiple ways. Rotate the winners and losers to keep everyone happy as best you can, and keep picking up new clients. It's hard work to keep everyone happy, but it's essentially free and guaranteed money. Just gotta be a people person, and be willing to sell a small bit of your morality.

It turns out the guy was a scammer soooo

I'm actually really surprised he was now, I watched the final scamming video before this one and did not connect the dots at ALL.

can they though? there can be a scandal or something, or suddenly you as a streamer/youtuber suddenly aren't popular anymore. that means no more stable income. most of the streamers are really dumb and don't invest any of their money.

@@SQERDOMOONLIGHT This is true, but they did a video about how Slime makes sure the crew have solid investment vehicles and also have other assets outside of crypto and what not.

@@SQERDOMOONLIGHT I think he is saying he can afford to be sick because he does invest elsewhere and he's not betting money he doesn't have/shouldn't spend. Even with Ludwig discussing how irresponsible he was being, he was playing with money he just won and didn't need. Even then, he only played with half of what he won initially. No amount of scandal would have had an effect on that - it was just extra money in the first place and not enough to ruin his life.

@@silentbovo1 that's smart. anyone has a link?

@@Chachixo he won 400k, 300k in cheques and 100k in cash, he was paying with half the CASH but only 1/8 what he won

No point running when you get to gamble with other people's money it is pure profit for you and doesn't hit you with a grand larceny felony

That would be dumb. He can make even more money with Ludwig if he’s smart about it

It's truly building up to a RuneScape-esque doubling-money scam lmao. Next he'll say he can trim Lud's Crocs.

Holy shit dude you predicicted it almost spot on (the money amount). This same guy scammed him from 100k but at least he's feeling the repercussions of it.

I knew it

Factual, just cuz we broke don’t mean his income should affect how we enjoy his story’s. Even when regarding a slew of money loss. If anything just shows he’s human and gets cocky like everyone else woukd

wait actually? i guess i just live in a rich country.

@@danielxu797 oh man what the hell

Yeah I mean usually I just make the comparison of like "this is basically the same as me going for like $400" and then it's easier to really follow, cause 40k is a lot of money lmao

@@danielxu797 where and then where in that "where"

@@DaFifaKid did you miss the part where he got banned for winning too much money

@@DaFifaKid they pay him only a percentage of what he bets. If he makes a profit every time of course they won’t let him gamble.

@@DaFifaKid yeah from what I’ve heard, professional gamblers have to play an interesting game to maintain their casino’s cause if they notice things aren’t in their favor they’ll ban you and they make a point of getting VERY good a noticing you. The owners can all count cards just like the pros and they notice if your abusing it. You mostly want to win slowly to keep the economy of the casino consistent and the higher ups happy. (From what I picked up off like 2-3 KZfaq videos so I could be wrong)

Yup my #1 concern is that Lud just got someone banned from a whole bunch of casinos.

@@budthecyborg4575 No way, this story is a huge win for the casino. Option A: Ludwig slowly loses $40k, has no story to tell, decides to cut back on the gambling a bit, tells viewers gambling sucks. Option B: Ludwig meets professional gambler friend, beats the casino for a few hours, has a good time, tells half a million people how fun gambling is, and STILL LOSES $40k. This is exactly what the casino wants, if anything they probably gave the guy a bonus.

maybe it's something unethical but not illegal. if they pay really good players to gamble and give them info on how to win, they win a lot more money. that encourages other gamblers to bet even more because they think there's a chance they'll get that lucky. the profit from that is way higher than whatever it costs to sponsor a few really good gamblers, meaning it's a win-win for everyone (except the other 99% of gamblers lmao)

It is quite literally the rich getting richer. It's strategic so that the poorer people can never win enough to get to the better odds where they can win real money. The one thing that casinos love more than anything is a class gap, because people in Vegas get desperate to escape average society, and they gamble, gamble, and gamble, always trying to chase a high, trying to reach back to even, and after they break even, they feel cheated, so they keep going, and funneling money back to the casino. The house always wins

@@classcalamity669 Ludwig was talking about people that spend more money at the casino getting compensated by the casino and was saying those comps were the rich getting richer. That’s what my post was about

"I put whose mansion on my wall?!"

cause unlike hammer 30 million can't hurt me

fuckin insane the fuck am i sayin

With free 100k I guess most people would get a little generous too

And it'll be an amazing story

him saying "I want to earn your trust" was a huge red flag for me too. I can almost guarantee he's gonna go "oh no bud I bet it all on a bad bet and lost it all," fake a receipt, then take a nice vacation.

@@NecrozmaJade I think he just professionally bets with other peoples money and takes a certain percentage. He probably is doing it for free so he can "earn your trust"

@@rileyneyman9789 Yeah, this is what I think as well since it's a real thing people do in Vegas. And judging by the skills he has shown more than likely he does it professionally.

THE MONKEY’S PAW CURLS

He's a cow about it

Fr. My bank account was over drafted a couple hundred recently, (which is an insane amount for me) and hearing him talk about money like this is cathartic in a way. It makes it seem humorous rather than stressful for a few minutes

Yo same. I have no income and am waiting for disability to be approved and I love living vicariously through KZfaqrs
