Italian football player G. Buffon (Goalkeeper) has betted a lot of money even millions of euro!
He has been accused of being part of scam system (rigged match) but at the end he has not been condemned.
I don't care, I mean it's their choice.
The only important things is to not scam other people / bookmakers or players.

In recent times we hear that more sports person were involved in gambling and you cannot determine whether they made decisions to favor their priority for the bet they made and if they did it is unfair and illegal. There used to be sting operations in cricket and many cricket players were caught in the past but i have not heard about any high profile bust in any other sport.

What is sounds strange each time, for we as "normal people" it's just to see famous player get involved in betting!
But they are humans and even Michael Jordan has normal habits/vices like any other humans Wink

If you are playing in a team, you are not even allowed to pass inside information and can put them in legal trouble let alone gamble, being human is one aspect but gambling is a billion dollar industry and if they change the course of the match to suite their priority someone else who made a bet would loose huge amounts.

I’m hoping everyone here knows who Michael Jordan is and in ESPN latest show his gambling history was revisited, and he admitted to gambling but with a twist something which I wasn’t expecting at all. According to the show Jordan indeed indulged in gambling but he only wagered on his own golf playing skills, and it’s pertinent to note that he ended up wagering big bets something you don’t usually bet according to the former NBA commissioner. Furthermore Jordan also admitted his love for blackjack, but it isn’t clear if he visited any online casinos to play blackjack or no, but what do you’ll think is there a possibility that he visits online crypto casinos to play blackjack as a hidden user?.

This is really an issue? Dont know why people are making controversies with this one yet there are no rules or laws to people to gamble no matter how popular he is.
So what if he do play on online casinos or do play jackpot? Its none of our business imho since its his own money after all.Its up to him if he would spend all of those and wrecked up.

Even average joe or average earners do gamble.How much more into those who do have millions of usd? Grin

i didnt knew that golf was a kind of gambling too . thought it was only a kind of sport that rich people do for fun but then i remember that there are now many sports that involved on sports betting so its still not possible

. there is also no need for him to hide himself if ever he play online gambling ( blackjack ) because no one will believe on him that he is michael jordan even if he didnt change his username or he can use different names too .

Didn't able to watch the gambling part on his documentary but on what period does this Blackjack activity happened?

If it's on his prime days as a player in NBA, I doubt online casinos are hype at that time so it's possible he is actually visiting a physical casino but not just shown in public news. If it's current, then I don't see any big deal if he plays in an online casino.

Like any sports personality, they have their own gambling experience history. As for Jordan, he treating it as entertainment.

He indeed visited physical casino, the one that was most talk were he stayed for almost till morning when they have their game against Knicks during their Eastern Conference showdown in 1993. They said he looks tired during those 2nd game.

Quote from: https://nypost.com/2020/05/03/the-last-dance-michael-jordan-says-he-never-had-gambling-problem/

The sixth episode of the hit ESPN docuseries covered the Bulls’ 1993 Eastern Conference Finals showdown with the Knicks, when Jordan’s gambling entered the national spotlight. After Chicago dropped the first two games of the series to New York, it emerged Jordan had been in Atlantic City the night before Game 2.

A New York Times report said he was seen in the casino lobby as late as 2:30 a.m., and Jordan appeared tired in that second game. In a present-day interview, Jordan maintains that it was all overblown, and the Atlantic City trip didn’t affect his play at all.

People are always going to judge whatever good you have done before will just be nothing with just one mistake. It always feels that way for celebrities' life is an open book. The eyes of the public are going to keep watching for that mistake.

Micheal may have tons of money and famous friends but his privacy will always be in the light and learning gambling habits will not make his followers proud. That's what we have been thought like it's unforgivable.

There is no way one of the biggest names in the world who owns a freaking NBA team would want to go to crypto places to play, dude could literally call up on rich people to his house to gamble whatever he wants and there will be lines out the door to play with him, even losing all your money to Jordan on a game of poker would worth every single penny to many celebrities, you have to understand this was THE DUDE in 90's and he still has a huge name, with just one documentary about him (and also in the right moment during lockdown) he became the most watched netflix documentary of all time, he is still very famous.

Crypto casinos are for people like me who have no other place to gamble, this dude could just call up pokerstars and get everything set up to him ready made with a laptop setup on his own house and just gamble there for couple hours, he is that big, he doesn't need crypto casinos at all.

I've known his gambling addiction in the past this is not new to me where in fact there are hollywood stars also who has the same problem with MJ that you wouldn't think they would do it. Gambling games is for everyone but there are times that most of these people don't know how to stop when they were starting. The possibility of MJ visiting online crypto casino is possible as an anonymous user especially this time he probably visited those online casino again.

There is a high chance because crypto casinos that he can play with doesn't require him to verify who he is. And for someone popular like him, it's favorable that he doesn't have to go through verification process and anonymity is a must for them so they can quietly do what they want.

Unless he win big and the casino has to verify him and ask for identifications or depends to the rules and regulations that casino he might be playing with. Just like the stories of other gamblers who were asked for KYC when they've won big and about to withdraw.

Today he might even be playing blackjack to online casino. The gambling habits get worse when Covid19 starting locking us at home. More people are spending their time on Facebook, youtube, netflix, and online casinos.

When you become rich, you'll find ways where to spend your money. A rich man will even buy a banana art taped on the wall just to show his wealth.

Perhaps there was a time when he just don't know what he will do with his money. Grin

I hope I could be at that same foot.

Online gambling? Hmmm, I doubt that will waste time for that and it is the gambling of the new era.
But, I also doubt this man could still think about that with his kids growing and then his cute six year old daughter is there.
He might be having the best time of his life.

I don't want to block the possibility for him visiting online casino's but maybe in this pandemic time he is now visiting an online blackjack site, but it is still not confirmed that he really is in love with blackjack yet but he got a lot in things financially when it comes on playing gambling so the thing is even though he is a well-known celebrity he can sure gambling on the public when he likes it.

And I guess he is 100% into skill-based gambling that is why he just gamble in trust with his golfing skills that I think a lot of gamblers would love to do.

Well, I will never forget this famous or a legend of a basketball game. A famous player like Michael Jordan may possibly play gambling through online casinos with a hidden identity probably that is to reduce his boredom or stress, either way, can be his reason but the amount he bets would definitely be really big compare to our bets because they have money. If Michael Jordan will reveal his identity when playing in an online casino's most gamblers will intend to play with him because of the money at stake that they perhaps take home.

No God or Kings, only BITCOIN.

I thought he could be an ambassador for responsible gambling or he already does? Playing online? I guess he did, we never know for sure, not these days to play physically on casinos where social media is seeing everything about your life, yeah playing online could be done by Jordan, there's big good online casinos out there to play with. I've heard it many times about his gambling habit and also the love of the sports golf.

Quote from: Lakai01 on May 05, 2020, 08:28:52 AM

If he truly was an addict I don't believe that he was only betting on his own golf playing skills. I didn't watch the series till now, maybe his gambling addiction is explained in detail there?

Quote from: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cbssports.com/nba/news/the-last-dance-michael-jordan-documentary-watch-live-stream-10-part-series-tv-channel-start-times/amp/

The series focuses on the 1997-98 season for Chicago -- Jordan's last year with the Bulls. The first few episodes largely went backward and established Jordan's background as a player while setting the stage for the eventual breakup of the Bulls. They also shed some light on Jordan's head coach, Phil Jackson, and key teammates Scottie Pippen and Dennis Rodman.

But I think maybe a glimpse of the story of his gambling addiction could be cover up on that series too. I haven't watched it but I guess it's better to let the series finished first before I would do.

Why wouldn't he? It's online, nobody knows who you are and you play with other complete strangers without having paparazzi all over you.

As a celebrity, intimacy is probably something you drool for - this brings not only privacy of his true identity but also connects him to others from around the world and is able to do and say normal stuff without having the fear of being judged for it. If I was a celebrity, I'd do it. Especially as lots of people tend to judge you over your casino habits & enjoyment.

If he really involved in Casino using crypto?then this is one big thing to celebrate because if once player here discover where he is playing then i am sure more bettors will enter the site and this is another good news for crypto market as well.

Having one of the most popular sportsman living is playing crypto casino is such a legacy we must be proud and will remain helping our market here to advertise the use and advantage of crypto currency that using fiat.

Nothing new, I have heard about Jordan's gambling addictions many times before. I don't think golf was the only sport he bet on. Someone who knows basketball as well as he does probably bet on some NBA matches occasionally. He can't do it himself but who can stop him giving money to a close friend or relative who will make the bets in his name?

He had the money so it is not a problem for him.
Also, he will not get broke since money is still coming in up until now.

He likes blackjack but I don't think he is into online casinos.
This players wants something better which is exciting and that means playing it at live casinos where rich people are also coming in.
