1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:02,040
Speaker 1: Jonesy and Amanda in the morning.

2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:08,080
Speaker 2: The man in Canada has has had a bet with

3
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:11,319
Speaker 2: a like this is a grown man had a bet

4
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 2: with a friend or a colleague. I'm thinking over a

5
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,600
Speaker 2: game of rock paper scissors. When's the last time you played.

6
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,160
Speaker 1: Rock paper scissors? I can't remember.

7
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 2: They have international championships, I know, and even I look

8
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 2: at that and think, grow up. Why don'd you go

9
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:25,599
Speaker 2: and play conquers?

10
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 1: Is it luck or skill with rock hates?

11
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 2: Well, this is the point because this guy lost a bet.

12
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,839
Speaker 2: Do you know how much he had to pay the

13
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 2: other guy five hundred and seventeen thousand dollars on rock

14
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,559
Speaker 2: papers one go? Ah, Well, this is how much he

15
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:43,959
Speaker 2: had to pay. He was forced to remortgage his home

16
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 2: to meet the costs.

17
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 1: What did he went through with them?

18
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,200
Speaker 2: But well he was going to do it, but went

19
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 2: to court and you said, is it skill or is

20
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 2: it luck? This is what it came down to, because

21
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 2: according to Quebec law, any contract for a bet requires

22
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 2: the wage you to be based on an activity requiring

23
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 2: skill or bodily exertion on the part of the parties,

24
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 2: not simply chance. So the court said, this is really

25
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 2: just a game of luck, so therefore the bet doesn't stand.

26
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 2: But then they had another court of appeal that said, actually,

27
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:19,319
Speaker 2: it is a game of skill because in certain this

28
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 2: is a quote in certain circumstances that does call upon

29
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:25,040
Speaker 2: the skill of the parties, particularly in the speed of

30
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 2: the execution, the sense of observation, or the putting in

31
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,480
Speaker 2: place a strategic sequence. So he then was going to

32
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 2: have to pay up. But then the Chief Justice ruled

33
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 2: that the size of the bet was too excessive, finding

34
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:40,960
Speaker 2: the contract was invalid. So it sounds like it was

35
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 2: one bet five hundred and seventeen thousand dollars on a

36
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 2: game of rock paper sis.

37
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: Imagine if we do that right now, five hundred and

38
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,520
Speaker 1: seventeen thousand dollars, right would you do three?

39
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 2: Like one two three? Go or do you go on

40
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 2: the third?

41
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 1: If we come and get past this.

42
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 2: Oh, you've lost your house.

43
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 1: What a shame? Okay? One two three goat?

44
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 2: See no go one two three goat one two three

45
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 2: paper scissors?

46
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 1: Sucker, you own me your house. Damn.

47
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 2: I wish i'd thought this through.

48
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: Tell Harlee and the kids they better be moving out.

49
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 2: There are some people though, and I reckon you'd be

50
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 2: like this with your brother or something. Some people who

51
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 2: will bet on anything.

52
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 1: Well, you know, I've had my four age of betting

53
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,679
Speaker 1: last week and then I gave up.

54
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 2: Oh what about didn't you have an arm wrestle?

55
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:28,360
Speaker 1: Oh yeah?

56
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 2: Was that for money?

57
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 1: No? That was just for for I don't know, for

58
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 1: being a young man.

59
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 2: But did other people bet on it? Yeah?

60
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 1: Well I fancy myself as a bit of an arm wrestler.

61
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:41,119
