Im looking at the pie char from the website and I'm seeing 81% support for core and only 10% for Bitcoin Unlimited. This is based from nodecounter.com. Oh btw, why is this thread discussing more about bitcoin news and not really about gambling? Why not move this to bitcoin discussion board?
It is decided by the miners, not nodes. Both coin.dance and nodecounter shows around 61% support for Core atm.

(Bitcoin Unlimited, Classic & SegWit)
Bitcoin Unlimited blocks: 387 ( 38.7% )

SegWit blocks: 280 ( 28% )
In the last 24 hours (144 blocks), Unlimited + Classic hashrate is ~1288 PH/s (36.8%) of the total Bitcoin network (3500 PH/s).
In the last 7 days (1000 blocks), Unlimited + Classic hashrate is ~1382 PH/s (39.5%) of the total Bitcoin network (3500 PH/s).
This affects gambling and investing. In the event of a split, would you want to trust some websites with your coins?
IMO it is safer to divest, withdraw and keep your coins in a wallet you control.
