These polymarkets need to be declared illegal, and all money returned, win or lose. Those that won get to keep their winnings.
Honestly I hope he wins
It’s a bold strategy, Cotton
Sounds like he’s doubling down in the bet
I hope he wins, but I’m guessing first thing they’re doing is saying “He signed a forced arbitration clause, and here’s the 42 places in the ToS where he signed that he was okay with it”, and the judge will throw it out
Forced arbitration illegal when?
not soon enough my friend. My work just tried to get me to sign one. Luckily it was optional, but holy fuck
A lot of arbitration clauses can be opted out of. This was the case with most of my credit card agreements when I was reading through them. It involves sending a letter saying that you want to opt out of arbitration. The clause is usually within the mass of text and not easy to find, but it’s there.
A lot of arbitration clauses are thrown out by courts once they manage to get it in front of a real judge and not a paid stooge. The feeling you get when the arbitrator goes against the company paying them though.
Private contracts do not override state and federal law
For this guy hopefully he proves that. For any of us regular folks what you’re saying may be true, but would bankrupt us trying to prove our case.
I wonder if Kalshi will set odds on the outcome of this suit?
"I lose $30,800 shame on me.
I lose $308,000 shame on you."
Hope he wins.
Just one more lawsuit… He’s gonna win some time…
Hope he wins.
Because you are tired of Kalshi?
Two reasons:
- Prediction markets ARE gambling and need to be regulated as such before it has a chance to create victims or empower insider trading.
- My moral philosophy is to side with the underdog.

I go into every sportsball game with this worldview. I don’t care who’s playing, I just like seeing the fallow with an upset victory and the response from the people that care way too much about something that ultimately doesn’t really matter.

leeeeeeeeeeetle late.
but yes, agreeing and teasing is all <3
Thanks. I have heard people complain about the constant ads, and I didn’t know if that was what got you too. I don’t watch anything on TV anymore (I do streaming) so I never see them.

Kakishi is a fucking HORRIBLE app to gamble on. Prediction markets offer horrible fucking odds, legal or not
TIL Kalshi doesn’t work from Italy.
I know it’s just because it would does affect the Italian Gov betting business but it’s still nice.
Remember, Kalshi will turn around and have you believe this guy is the best at predicting virtually anything.
What’s the bet on him losing this case
I was thinking of making a joke about how bringing a court case is gambling on a favorable outcome, but your joke is better and simpler.
