As far as I know, the previous Super Bowl events did not have a 10% tax taken out of the winnings.

That was a big part of why I bet so much money in the past -- the improved odds of straight up, no fees gambling.

The event has morphed slightly from a purely for fun event into one used as a gil sink. :(

Idk if it was 10% but iirc he took a cut off the previous bets.

I don't think he advertised that.

If you go back and look at the old posts he specifically spells it out to have no tax.

Definitely seems to remove favorable odds or even perceived favorable odds from either side.

I think that was the first time he used a betting NPC. It also doesn't say he won't take a cut.

I did. It still doesn't say no cut will be taken.

Edit: And last years thread, viewtopic.php?f=16&t=8809&hilit=Super+Bowl

Again he does not say if a cut will or won't be taken out. I'm almost 100% sure he took a cut last year.
