    • i love to take seemingly bad ideas that exist in the real world & flip them

    • looking to make them good in another form

    • i believe that everything that exists has its good side as well as its bad side

    • this project attempts to do exactly that with the gambling industry

    • i have imagined turning gambling into something more fun & educational

    • this vs. the current model which takes your money & gives it to profiteers

    • who are exploiting your natural desire to try to get ahead in life

    • what if i could give you all the fun & excitement of gambling

    • even the opportunity for cash & prizes

    • but greatly reduced your cost to play

    • what if we took the 5% to the house component out of gambling

    • and instead made it much like playing any other popular game today

    • that has a minimal cost to play

    • yet we maintained all the same games with the sames win/lose odds

    • the easiest way to do this is to pit you against other players

    • this vs. against the house

    • what if winning & losing was a relative to other players proposition

    • vs. who you did at defying the odds

    • think about playing any gambling type game

    • you act & react to situations in time

    • a series of repetitive hands or games

    • with no real beginning or end most of the time

    • you can walk up to & away from any game at any time

    • now imagine you do this simultaneously with many other people

    • you all play exactly the same hands/games at the same time

    • you make decisions & they make similar or different decisions

    • your decisions yield either good or bad results for you

    • over a series of play in time

    • you net either positive or negative results

    • and these can be compared to everyone else who played the same hands/games

    • i can then compare your results to their results

    • and determine winners & losers this other way

    • you can play this way with fake money

    • and still have the same incentive to do your best

    • i can even require you to pay a little real money to play

    • and have a chance at netting something greater than your entry fee

    • this is what the gambleland platform looks to create

    • you pay something like $1 per hour to play

    • you have fun & you learn

    • and you still have a chance to come away with something

    • if you indeed have superior playing skills over others
