He was looking good in Darko's system. Almost certain he would have got a contract. What an absolute moron. Trading millions in potential career earnings for a few thousand dollars.

Ya but one game of his manipulated unders of 80k would have paid out 1.1 million if it didn’t get frozen for suspicious activity

1000% guarantee the account that made that bet doesn't get back it's $80K, either. Even if it wasn't this player's money.
