Political Bet

Back to lighter issues...

OK, so, I am tipping Obama to win the US election. I put all of my Nadal winnings on this at 1.49 which is still available at Betfair this evening.

What odds for it being the shortest Presidency on record?

That sort of bet is not quoted by Betfair for some strange reason or other! I reckon you could get 20-1 (or maybe much more!) for this kind of bet.

Yes I suppose you could make it self fulfilling

Possibly 'ethics' enters into the bookmaker's mind for this kind of bet?!!

On a lighter note, I had heard that someone once 'bet' there was going to be a streaker at a certain sports event and collected a bundle at about 10-1.
