Listen to what he says at the end….
“Even with us telling them that the game is rigged, and that there’s no way to win, they’re still going to want to play it. They’ll still try to bet on the game, even if they know it is a con, because they just think they can put one over. But they can’t.”
It makes me think of people that put on trades even when their edge isn’t there… it’s human nature to think you can put one over on the markets, even if you logically know that you can’t.
