I have been playing @Showdown_TCG a ton lately and really enjoying it. Looking forward to today's highstakes tournament.
Game is great mix of Magic and poker, completely free and runs smoothly + instantly in browser. Proud of my friends they managed to build something like this
You can try it here:

Use the best code Flash which nets you extra rewards and most importantly, incredible luck!
And quickly before I lose it, here is a screenshot with me as #1 ELO player!
Small caveat is that I am crushing free games and losing $100 ones, but "luckily" ELO doesn't care for that :D

A few years ago I finished game Return of the Obra Dinn (detective game). Then I kept thinking about how awesome the game/music was, to the point that enough time passed by and I realized I finally don't remember enough so that I could replay it. It was somehow better second time

If you’re fine with mass surveillance because you’re “not doing anything wrong,” just wait until they redefine what “wrong” means.
I got baited by the vintage cube and played 10 direct runs. Won 7 boxes, played 63 games and had 71 % winrate (45-18).
No idea what this spiderman set is, I am sure that set is great and these boxes will be very expensive!
As I am falling asleep at 3am while thinking about Arena Directs, I just realized that you should be drafting these differently than normal money draft cubes. “This deck will be insane if I get a Brain Freeze, otherwise it can’t win” is great in direct, bad in normal draft

@Showdown_TCG weekly money leaderboard, Flash made $1,274 in 154 games. That's over $8 per game, ~$50 per hour of gameplay.
I posted long explanation with my math on FB (last person on earth writing there), but I will try to go with TLDR.
EV of the ticket is 1 mill, but high variance - let's lower variance with lower EV. Your personal utility curve and mix of current/future net worth are important.
Person with net worth $200 000 should sell for $290 000 with range 156k - 420k based on risk appetite. Bottom of range is for people with logarithmic utility - scared of losing, and top is for those with high risk tolerance
