I mostly just lurk so I avoided the whole back and forth between the Trump and Biden bettors in the last 100 or so pages but it was very clear to me early on that Trump bettors had a lot more at stake in this election than just money. Seems like a lot of Trump bettors were either hedging their Biden positions or they were major supporters who built their entire identity around him.

And now it all comes to an end with Trump's last press conference being held across the street from an adult bookstore in Philadelphia. Kinda sad but also a fitting end to his presidency.

I know I'm mostly dealing with guys in their 30's here, but it's not like we go for beer together afterwards and I'm trying to hang with a younger crowd. It's a forum, not a bar. Am I too old to post? And I'm not 60!
But what what do you mean no self awarenes?

I'm fully aware I'm a guy who wins a 100 dollars who shares a forum with guys that win a 100 thousand dollars.
I know my place. I also don't go around telling people what to bet. I'm usually here to get info, and ok, once in a while voice my opinions too.

If I'm viewed as a total idiot Ivr, just say it. I can take it.
But you'll have ruined your chances of me letting you date my daughter.
You blew it buddy.

Obv my personal account is long gone, but I know a lot of rich whales. It helps.
Nice. I figure there is no way to keep accounts open for any length of time at soft books. Just making a 4 figure deposit probably sets off alarms in their system.

that actually makes a lot of sense, and i kind of feel bad now for how rude i've always been to him.

i think older people are not as stupid as the come across on the internet, there's just some kind of cultural training which they never received, as they were already adults when the internet first appeared

i'm sorry nepeeme. it wasn't fair to be so rude to you. i still wish you would post better, but i understand that you're viewing things from a different lens.

you should check out reddit.com, if you haven't already. they have politics and gambling forums, and they are very welcoming for people like you. i think you would like it!

If he was telling the truth he lost a lot of money. He must be devastated now.
He didn't seem like a bad guy. Just overly enthusiastic about his candidate.
Reminds me of our fallen hero Elves.
**** that. A bet is a bet. Nobody here gives a **** if whb lost money. Don’t agree to bets you can’t pay on.

Trash poster the whole way through.

lol.

I was maybe throwing some jabs your way, too.
Thanks. I still respect that you're an older poster and successful.

I'm not at all offended by the sarcasm because you're sort of right.
My posting is sometimes truly bad and I post way more than
I should. But I do have some discipline. I don't post in the other threads anymore.
I'll continue posting here on the politics thread, as long as it's still running, because it's been positive ev to my accounts. I don't see why I should give that up. But I'll try not driving you guys nuts. I'll post less.

And I'm 54, not 60!!

You're right. I'm too soft. He should pay. Especially after all that bluster of his we had to endure.
And when we spoke up about it, Holiday and Poogs were offended at how nasty we liberals are. Shockkinng.

Apache County reported 1,171 Trump 1,068 Biden, or 52.3%. Apache had split 30% for Trump, so if anything close to that continues and provisionals count at reasonable rate Trump wins AZ easily.

Guys, I don't really care but I'm going to say it anyways.
Don't listen to the right wing media. Fox and all those people, especially that low life Newt, belong in jail for this BS.
What I'm saying is, if you put money that somehow Trump will be declared the winner, you can kiss your money goodbye. And if you do, you actually deserve to lose it.

This is why I warned people betting Trump that you needed to shop for a line asking the question of "Who will be President at the end of the day on January 20th, 2021?"
I was quite dismayed to learn my book would go by the NYT call, given Trump promised to cast doubt on the election outcome several months ago. The closest proxy on PI that I can see is "Who will be Sec of State on 2/1?" With Pompeo gathering steam, doubling in price in the last day.

Considering all the poll fraud and some people knowing about (possible) fraud they could v cashed in fraudulent as well knowing the outcome.

Unibet:

Winning Candidate: Donald Trump (Winner)Additional InformationWinner decided by who reaches the required number of Electoral Votes on Election day. If there is no clear winner on election day the offer will be settled as soon as a candidate is projected to win beyond reasonable doubt.

Well there is doubt. So why are they paying already. Can we sue them if T gets elected anyway?

Didn't Trump tell his supporters to vote twice? Seems like this investigation of fraud will probably find republican fraud if anything.

We're going to have people in this very thread betting on Trump until Biden is actually inaugurated aren't we

lol

Then those same people are gonna pump Hillary D nom 2024 markets and Trump to win 2024 markets because Qanon says she's secretly eating babies and plotting a comeback while Trump is secretly trying to stop her as a private citizen

We have people on this thread that think Ivr is a bettor poster than me Swoop.
You think they're not holding on to the last shred of hope that Trump somehow magically wins?
And I'd like to remind people that Ivr doesn't even wager!

Ivr, you remember way back around March when I offered a 500 dollar bet against you that Biden would win? And you declined?
You owe me 500 bucks.

also curious what people would say for a fair line right now, as we wait and see what happens with litigation and recounts
