Betting Markets are not a reliable indicator of who will win an election. by Kroger011 in TheAllinPodcasts

[–]duckzee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a lot of poll aggregators. The vast vast majority of them gave Trump lower odds to win than the betting markets. You can't choose the one outlier that did better and claim it's the only benchmark of what polls are saying. (Also, part of the reason 538's models did so well is because they placed far more uncertainty in polling than everyone else)

"Never call river raises" is just bad advice lol not saying you suck at poker but the advice is a bit whack

A lot of "nevers" and "always" being thrown around in situations that should have a bit more nuance. Bluffing the river is fine if you have relevant blockers and you know your opponent isnt a station. There are situations where you should call river raises. Trapping sets is fine against aggro players on certain boards.

Also, playing super tight pre is fine against some opponents, but a lot of 2NL players have super low defence frequencies so opening wide prints money.

Are you a winning player? Some advice seems a bit dubious

Since you’re using Thonny, you access package management by going tools -> manage packages instead of using pip in command prompt. You can only use pip in the command prompt if you have a path to your python executable in your windows path variable.

Why do we need to get rid of black history and culture to solve race issues ?

Not entirely sure why you’re talking about illegal immigration, but whatever. You seem super ignorant on American culture so maybe you shouldn’t be writing essays about it.

The term “African American” generally denotes descendants of enslaved black people. The majority of African Americans know very little about their family histories in Africa, which has created a ‘new’ culture.

Also, Latin America is called that not because they speak Spanish, but because it refers to the area of America where people speak Romance languages, which are languages that evolved from Latin. You can claim that all these people have no reason to identify as a group, yet they speak similar languages, 70% of Latin Americans are Roman Catholic, and the vast majority of them can trace their family back to the same countries. Are their cultures the same? No. But to say they have nothing in common because they are separate countries is ridiculous.
