current law. Most states currently permit DFS, as they are not seen as predominantly games of chance (Huffman, 2014). Miller & Singer present the widely cited statistic that 91 percent of all DFS profits are won by just 1.3% of players (2015).

Those two categories (instantly winning, instantly losing) make up about 1/3 of the roles that you could receive on the first round of the game of craps.

The human trait of curiosity goes hand in hand with belonging. We naturally want to discover who we are, and for Saroo Brierley that took a bit more effort compared to the average boy.
