A game being played in Canada this weekend will have a positive expected value. Rarely is there a legit game with a positive expected value. I am looking forward to playing it.

If you did indeed find a true +EV play to make, the last thing you want to do is publicly disclose what it is, especially on the internet (I have found +EV plays myself, and of course keep it to myself... loose lips sink ships). I realize you didn't say, and you shouldn't. So that said, may I ask what is the point of your thread?

What game did you find with a positive expected value?
I am keeping my game a secret only because I am not allowed to mention it here. It is a type of gambling game that is not allowed to be discussed on this gambling forum. Go figure!
Interesting, I wasn't aware that any topic was prohibited.
I don't want to get specific about the game I was referencing, even though it's no longer in service at this venue. But it involved a video machine paying out more in comp value than the EV$ to earn them.

I do not put a great deal of value on comps and would not normally count it in as part of the expected value. When I calculate expected value, I only consider cold, hard cash. The same cash I spend when I play the game.
That's fair. But because I spend comp $ so frequently (rooms, etc), I treat comp $ the same as real $. And when I said comp value, I meant direct points earned, which have 1-1 pt-$ value.

I don't think there's any game that isn't allowed to be discussed, so feel free.

Well, OP did have a running thread on Canada's lotto 6/49 that he constantly updated even when it wasn't +EV and people got fed up with it enough to delete it.
In OP's defense, lotto 6/49 has currently rolled over a LOT and is now $40M for a single winner ($2 ticket; 1 in 13.98M to hit jackpot). Since Canada doesn't tax lottery winnings, this could be a +EV lottery depending on sales.
No. You can discuss the game til your heart's content. You can't discuss what you're trying to do though.
Evidence to the contrary. A thread was created to discuss the game. Some members complained - some of the same members that are replying to this thread with sarcastic responses. The moderators deleted the thread. The reason given by the moderator was some members did not like the content.
There was no discussion on pool play in the thread even though one member trying to bait me in discussing.
