O/T:- Betting odds for US Election [The USA Politics Thread]

[Elite_Pie]

Not sure if it's OK to talk about betting on here (disclaimer: I think it's fun but it is a mugs game and a certain percentage of people WILL get addicted to it).

As I have said many times before on here, betting is only a mugs game if you're a mug, but I wouldn't argue when you say a certain percentage of people WILL get addicted to it. It used to be easy to make a profit if you took advantage of the offers, but since affordability checks were introduced those offers have dried up.

Regarding the US election, the betting odds suggest a Trump win. Trump is a general 8/13 (62% probability), Harris is around 13/10 (43% probability). If you think it really is a coin toss, Harris is your value bet but I wouldn't recommend it.

I've learned a few things on NCM and one of them is from EP. Bugger the polls and the media, just follow the bookies. I don't gamble, but they seem to know a lot more than everyone else.

I've also learned how to block, which is liberating . Makes the discussions much more enjoyable.
