We discuss the scandal in Belarusian football – it turns out that even there, fixed matches happen regularly. We examine the contenders for the ‘Oscar’ in the categories ‘Best Film’ and ‘Best Director’ and our chances to profit from it (spoiler: ‘Joker’ stands no chance). We break down the scandal with the bookmaker ‘Parimatch’, which handed over information about their clients’ bets to the tax authorities and try to make sense of how taxation works in the Russian betting industry – a lot of it remains unclear.
