Who is your bookie? have they closed your bets on Trump? i have money on trump that i can't afford to lose.

on betfair and bet365. BETFAIR currently have odds of 1 to 19 on Trump.

i am 100% sure BETFAIR exchange will honor bets if DT wins - as said in their terms (i think by this year?)

i am 60% sure BET365 will honor the bets if DT wins, however, their terms state:

"Settlement of all bets will be based on the total votes cast and counted at the time of the election, and not on any subsequent legal challenge." And;

"All bets are settled on the winner of the election and not on the person who is inaugurated."

^ i think they have the right to not honour DT bets, but it is more about their reputation. there will be many angry based people if they don't pay DT. my bets with them are still open. i am waiting to hear back from b365 about this.

^just heard back from Bet365. They said "sorry, we have paid out bets as Biden as winner, but we are keeping the Trump bets open"

so i asked if they will pay our bets out if DT wins? They said - "not 100% sure, but that sounds like the case"

i guess time will tell, but wouldn't bet365 lose a hell of a lot of $$$ since they already paid out sleepy joe?

degens please post, many degens don't know what is happening with our bets.

no this isn't for popular vote.

currently BETFAIR exchange have odds of 1 to 20 for next president for Trump, which is INSANE

Some of the local sports betting businesses over here have already paid out to people who bet on Biden.

Boy are they in for it come Jan 20th.

Actually they’ve pulled US election off the internet. Apologising for ‘service outage’. Hmmm.

TAB paid out Biden but will also pay out Trump win.

TAB Aus? that is very interesting. and more good promise that b365 will do the same.

the betting totals are INSANE. Betfair exchange alone have close to 1 BILLION dollars in bets placed.

one bookie i know (can't remember name) makes around $200 mil per year profit. but if they pay out both Biden and Trump - they set to lose close to $80 million.

makes you wonder how these bookies will pay out both parties - maybe they have some type of insurance to cover this? or they just count it as a loss?

I have around 2500 on Betfair in play still, spread between Trump win, Michigan and Trump popular vote.Hoping to see large numbers of ballots invalidated shortly via courts.

They may stop USA election betting after this disaster.

good luck not only for us, but the world.

but you will feel glad you placed those bets on Betfair exchange, as they will 100% pay you out.

The SJWs who backed Biden on Betfair will be spewin as they will lose when Trump wins.

Most betting sites have insurance, so theyll prob pay both sides at the end of this
