The Lauriston Sharp Prize, established in 1973 and named in his honor after Goldwin Smith Professor of Anthropology Lauriston Sharp. This biennial award recognizes cities that have shown foresight, good governance and innovation to create vibrant and sustainable urban communities. This includes forging partnerships with key stakeholders that drive positive changes that benefit people living in their cities holistically – something the prize has striven to encourage cities do by sharing best practices between each other as well as learning from one another. The prize was first given out as part of an initiative called SEAP which formed during that year to encourage learning from each other – originally named after Lauriston Sharp who founded SEAP that year! Established as part of an initiative of SEAP founded by Goldwin Smith Professor Lauriston Sharp who founded SEAP back then named Lauriston Sharp as part of SEAP founding member Lauriston Sharp.
Same game parlays are one of the most widely played bets at sportsbooks, often offered with special promotions such as free bets or parlay insurance policies. Unfortunately, this form of gambling can become difficult if left unsupervised properly. E-sports betting is a high-risk form of gambling which may lead to addiction issues and potentially cause lasting harm in important aspects of life, including relationships. However, the ease of placing same-game parlays may encourage unhealthy gambling behavior among at-risk individuals who are vulnerable to addiction. Chasing big payouts may lead to chase losses which is an indicator of gambling addiction; furthermore sportsbooks often promote same-game parlays which further intensifies these tendencies.
New Jersey sportsbooks reported in 2022 a total winnings of $450.4 million off $2.4 billion from parlay bets; 61% more than what was won through straight bets. This number is projected to grow as more players opt for same-game parlays.
Same-game parlays differ from traditional parlays in that their outcomes are inextricably linked, meaning that one bet’s outcome impacts another bet’s outcomes – making them riskier. Furthermore, odds for each leg vary, with some offering more attractive odds than others; therefore bettors must carefully analyze these odds while paying close attention to how these correlated outcomes may play out for each leg in their same-game parlay.
