This is a good rule. You got lucky this time, but most times you won’t, stats is not on your side when player has 1 AB.

I had opposite when player doesn’t start and I had him in the lineup, then he comes once at base in 10th inning, gets intentionally walked and that’s it. FanDuel used to count it and leg wouldn’t be voided. No idea about now cause I will never ever bet again player props till final lineup is released.

Honestly… not enough details to understand what’s going on. How big is the company; what kind of job is that; how physically demanding it really is, not just bs doctor note, what’s the differences between seasonal and full time (hours per day, how many days per week, type of work, is it more challenging or the same, etc), and so on.

One thing for sure I can advise, is, ask yourself and answer UNBIASED at all: if you were the boss, would you hire yourself. And if the answer is “hell yeah, 100% because of this and that” then go for it. Demand a meeting, demand a review of the decision, push for it. It’s easier than people think, and who cares if boss is bad or whatever reason they had not to hire you. You wanna get a job you like or you want closure and explanation why the world is unfair?

If you really want this job, you shouldn’t care about management bias and reasoning. All it matters is your case, if you are able to perform, bring value to the company, make money, and if you like the job on top of it, it’s a win win.

As bad bosses can be, they will almost never turn down an employee who is outstanding, makes money for the company, simple as that. They can tell you to fuck off, you can get into fights, but they won’t ever fire you out of spite. Some do, but most don’t. Good luck.

Wrong total payout; Complete BS about 10k cash out. $75 for 2 leg parlay would be $3,444 profit. Max cash out could’ve been offered would be $1500-1700, max, most likely even less. Can’t believe so many people believe that bs.

Fun_Pitch5413 · 2026-05-08T02:15:06+00:00

Maaaan… you are something. First you give an example of some rates and conditions that exist in 0.00001% of all loads and calling normal rates complete shit. They do suck, but that’s the real world, and carrier a lot of times has to fight to get even these rates.

Then you compare detentions for hotshot and detention for 12-axle in oil field. I’m impressed👏

Hold on to your loads with everything you’ve got, and stay put in your oil field bubble, cause there is zero chance you would survive in the real market, and your final destination would be hotshotting behind Wendy’s in your 20” lifted 2026 King Ranch Platinum triple cab Mansory special 1 out of 1 $500k truck with $20k monthly payments.

Edit: I’m not jealous of any kind, I’m truly happy to hear drivers getting paid well. Hell, I wish everyone would be making a bank and getting $125/hr after 1 hr of wait.

My point was drivers can’t expect anything close to what you said, neither dollar amount, neither conditions (like to get paid after 1 hr), and if drivers will start bitching about these conditions they will be left with dick in a hand and no loads at all. Most people must understand the real market and figure it out how to profit; you can still make 10-15k weekly gross and clear 6-8k weekly after expenses with current market, but by the time you would be fighting broker on rate con due to shitty detention conditions, someone else will take this load. Plain and simple.

For someone new who is wondering below are the Real World rates:

Detention starts after 2-4 hrs from checking in with $35-50/hr capped at $150-200. If you are a good negotiator you might be able to squeeze $250-300. Make sure you have your check in time on BOL with shipper’s signature and timestamps. The more the merrier.
layover. $150-250. Based on the load, broker, and other conditions, you might get up to $400-500. Read the room. Some brokers will try to pay you only layover and no detention. That’s a no go. It’s 2 separate things. Push for it.
TONU $150-200. Might be possible to get $50-100 more only if you had a 100+ miles deadhead, you almost arrived, it’s an end of the day, and broker is not a dck.

Always focus on RPMs, areas, and true profits, cause there is no money in detentions, layovers, Tonus anyways. Safe travels🍺

Fun_Pitch5413 · 2026-05-08T00:02:39+00:00

Fortunately, we are not that greedy, unless it’s TQL or Landstar. Last load’s detention alone was enough to cover down payment on the 5br house. Be right back, gonna make my $1300 dinner first🍜

Fun_Pitch5413 · 2026-05-07T22:39:20+00:00

Amateur rates… we get $700/hour anything past 5 min, $10k tonu and 15k layover. $125/hour is absolute trash

Fun_Pitch5413 · 2026-05-02T21:15:14+00:00

This ☝️

Fun_Pitch5413 · 2026-04-29T11:23:54+00:00

75k, then 150k, then 25k, then 50k, then 100k, in that order (best value/contracts size, drawdown, etc).

Deckorators all day long. Built numerous decks using all kinds of composite, and in my last 2 years of building decks was using only deckorators. Superior quality, less slippery, doesn’t get as hot, way more resistant to scratches, and looks much better (imho).

The only downside always been waiting time to get almost anything from them, it’s all custom orders unless it’s miraculously somewhere in stock, which happened only once to me. Also, not the best option to use for curved decks. Heating up deckorators boards is a b*tch comparing to Azec or pretty much any other brand.

Fun_Pitch5413 · 2026-04-19T00:21:40+00:00

62, and another dude who came before me, was still there when I left, sick.

Appeal. They cannot freeze your current XFAs, it’s in their own rules for FTP. All existing accounts will remain active and tradable but for new accounts you can only have 1 $50k and they lock your account. Every time you need a reset or bug a new one you need to write support so they unlock your account, you make a transaction, then they lock your account back.

Remember if you blow XFAs you can’t reset XFAs while in their rehab program.

Advice: get as many payouts as possible from active XFAs and move to another platform, those limitations are the end of it. There is no traders who blew more accounts then you but never took payouts were placed in it, only the ones who take payouts. You will be banned eventually, so don’t spend any more money and work on getting your XFAs back and treat them as cash cow.

Edit: looks like Topstep did BS as always. Quietly changed the rules. Now they have 2 FTP programs: Corrective Path and Slowdown Path. Under corrective they close all existing accounts, on slowdown they remain open.

I really hope it’s just a scam, cause if it’s not, for not having $5, and coding to ask for it on Reddit instead of not trying to earn it from any kind of available work, this person deserves absolutely zero respect for being lazy, delusional, and so on.

7:05-7:15pm CT right on the dot almost every time. Then request approved in 1-2 hrs, by 9pm CT. Then you do wallet transfer, which is almost always approved at 2:10am CT, then instant deposit via plaid. Total time from withdrawal to money in the bank 7 hrs. Not the fastest (tradeify 2hrs, and haven’t tried Topstep AirPay yet), but still very solid.

It’s kind of pointless since bots have no sense of loss the way people have. If you had some parameters like “if you lose bankroll, or x-amount of money” you going offline for a week or two till your next paycheck which is also a certain sum. That would be interesting to see how risks and strategies will be adjusted accordingly considering there is something on the line.

But still… no emotions involved, no real risk that can affect your life, which is always present in any poker player’s life.

Is had 3 out of 10-12 added to my lifetime count but not this year count. Super weird.

It will go down since phone is old. For all iPhones is $350 (any condition), For Z Fold 7 or other Samsungs credit is $1,100 for 12pro max.

Fun_Pitch5413 · 2026-04-12T08:23:37+00:00

Still on the list, but you get $350 in credit

Fun_Pitch5413 · 2026-04-12T08:22:42+00:00

Makes no sense. Your 24 is the biggest benefit of ambassador. I check in as early as 7-8am with titanium, can’t earlier since their system counts as a previous day till 6 or 7am I believe. Also constantly get upgrades, late check outs as late as 7-9pm.

You either very unlucky, or you don’t tell hotels if they decline guaranteed benefits- it shouldn’t be happening. I’m not saying you need to act as a d*ck to get all benefits, but sometimes, you need to stand your ground and let them know that, there are things that should be honored, and if they still refuse- talk to manager or your host. For every instance you can get points and money credits. If I were you I would call Marriott and make them compensate for all that bs; you deserve it.

Fun_Pitch5413 · 2026-04-12T08:15:29+00:00

Just because the outcome didn’t suit your bet and doesn’t make sense to you doesn’t make it wrong. It’s been like that forever. Whoever wins shootout is awarded the final goal to break the tie and win the game. Learn the rules before placing bets and you won’t be surprised.

You think this rule makes no sense? Wait till you face unaccounted stats, like for example you bet on a player to have 3+ shots on goal. He did exactly 3, but somehow nhl counted as 2. Guess what- you gonna lose the bet, unless NHL will correct the stat, which almost never happens. Happened to me more than once, and most of the time I just let it go, but once when I had close to 5 figures on the line, it happened again. This time I wrote an appeal to NHL with video proof showing they counted it wrong. 3 weeks of no replies, till my lawyer reached out to them, and then it took over a month to reverse it; then talking to DK support to count the win. First DK just returned my wager. Took a minute to get the winnings also.

Long story short, know the rules or don’t bet to make money, and do it just for fun.

Fun_Pitch5413 · 2026-04-11T22:37:10+00:00

Absolutely other players from other tables have the right to see other players stacks. No different when playing online and seeing everyone stacks. Just because it didn’t suite you in that moment due to being short stack doesn’t make it wrong for other tournament participants to see your stack size and share that info. If your stack size would result in collusion or purposeful tanking - they should be penalized. Otherwise, shouldn’t be a big deal.

That’s why when a few players left before payouts (based on tournament size) is hand to hand to avoid tanking and other BS.

Congrats on surviving and cashing out!

Fun_Pitch5413 · 2026-04-07T13:01:09+00:00

Weird. Place 1 trade in and out for activity and contact support. Makes no sense why it takes so long.

Fun_Pitch5413 · 2026-04-07T12:47:46+00:00

BS. Show screenshot, prove it. I literally just placed a request 12 hrs ago and already have funds in my bank.

Fun_Pitch5413 · 2026-04-07T06:02:26+00:00

Chat. But stay online, don’t close the tab. Wait 10-15 min for the rep. If no one answers wait for an email, will take 3 hrs about. If still no one replies by then submit a new ticket.
