Seeing that โYour Accountโ message in the subject when going through your emails has to be one of the worst feelings ever.
You just know itโs them banning you or limiting you for no reason (reason being you win regularly)
@bet365 Would be nice if your site could actually allow us to place bets?
Always happens with you guys right before the games start itโs like you do this on purpose
@Mk3Gabs Following a further review, bets on England to miss their first penalty have now been resettled as winners as a gesture of goodwill. Thank you for your feedback regarding the rules, this has been passed on to the relevant team.

Lamine Yamal appears to take aim at Harry Kane in his most recent statements about the Ballon d'Or: "I think the Ballon d'Or should go to the best player in the world, period. Not to a player who's scored 80 goals, because when you score 80 goals, you get the 'top scorer' award for that. These are very different things that people aren't understanding. The best player in the world is the one that, as a commentator, youโre watching a game and enjoying - you see him and think, โHeโs a player who is very different from everyone else.โ. - When the award goes to the best, not the one who scores the most goals or the one who has won the most titles, then it will regain its true value."

World Class bottling from Ohio State fair enough.
Up 20 points to Texas and still somehow couldnโt see it over the line, missed field goal at the end to make it even funnier.
This account tweeting the actual timeline of 9/11 and the events before and after really puts things in a totally different perspective.
Crazy looking at it from this point of view
This is just coming in: there appears to be a major fire on the upper floors of one of the towers of the World Trade Center in New York City.
Reports claim that a small plane, either a Cessna or a private jet, accidentally flew into the tower around the 80th floor, due to either an air traffic control communications error or a malfunction on the aircraft.
The dozens of victims are in our thoughts. We will continue to monitor rescue and repair surrounding this alarming accident.
Donโt piss me off.
Why would you ever refuse coin flips like this? $100 to play and you have a 50/50 chance to win $125. You are mathematically more likely to profit even if itโs just a one time try
An MIT professor offered his class a coin flip: win $125 or lose $100. Most students said no. Then he proved refusing was the smart move, and it explains why you're bad with money.
The bet is a steal on paper. Flip a coin, win $125 or lose $100. Do the math and you come out $12.50 ahead on average. It's what economists call a more than fair bet. Most of the room still turned it down.
They weren't being dumb. They were being human.
Here's the idea underneath it. You don't actually care about dollars, you care about how much each dollar changes your life. And the dollars you already have are worth more to you than the ones you might win. So losing $100 stings harder than winning $125 feels good.
Then he pushed it further. He told the class he'd force them into that winning bet unless they paid to walk away. How much would they pay? The answer, with their standard math, was $43. People will hand over almost half their money to dodge a bet that's tilted in their favor.
That's not weakness. That's a law of how the mind values risk, and it has a name: risk aversion.
And it's the whole reason insurance exists. Being uninsured is just this coin flip in disguise. You quietly pay to never be the person who gets wiped out, even when the math says the odds are on your side.
Once you see it, you notice it everywhere. Every warranty, every premium, every bet you've refused. You weren't being irrational. You were pricing the fear.
