Anyone Betting on Facebook?

Quote from Kendo86:

Bet on one of the worst performing IPOs of all-time? No thanks.

However, as Facebook grows it's virtual currency the less it will rely primarily on advertising. Over half of social gamers play games on Facebook, in numbers, that's around 300 million active gamers each month.

As the game developers make virtual goodies more attractive, I think we'll see more than the current 20% of people who have purchased them. Plus, online gambling getting in on the action is imminent (makes $30 billion per month), this could be a great pairing of Facebook (who have the people) and online gambling (who have the money).

I have this ironic bet on Facebook, which this thread reminds me of. It's an actual bet on the Facebook shares falling every day via the Facebook game Bookie Mania. I'm winning on that everyday...Pity it's virtual!

Nice one. I just went on Bookie Mania (although I found it at www.bookiemania.com) and made a bet on a bunch of shares and on a few sports too.

On your point though, I would bet (pardon the pun) that gambling is not going to be as big for Facebook as they seem to think - everyone thinks gambling companies make more than they do.

most sure?
that has a nice sound to it

I own a few 2014 OTM Leaps,
but I figure FB will have to increase it's EPS,
AFTER the substantial stock dilution coming...
