Great way to handle it. Lots of books aren't settling till Jan (or even Feb). Paying out without settling losing tickets is not something most would even consider. Hopefully you don't have to pay the losers. I agree, a great way to handle the situation. And hey, I was one of the losers, I sure hope Trump somehow becomes President

https://news.stake.com/us-election-2020-statement/Official stake elections statement Summary: "We have chosen to pay out on Biden early while allowing Trump bets to remain unsettled until there is more clarity."
We're actively settling Biden bets now as a win, if you bet on him you will get paid within 24h. So, people will win either way.. no matter who they bet on? I know Eddie said that there was over $4 000 000 that was bet on this election results, just on Stake in his Stream over the weekend. Well, I will be happy... because I dropped a few dollars on Trump for a win.. even if I do not really like any one of the two. Thank you for keeping us up to date on this matter, because it dominated the discussions in the chat the last few days.

We're actively settling Biden bets now as a win, if you bet on him you will get paid within 24h. 1. Voter fraud is proven 2. Votes are recast 3. Trump receives 270+ electoral college votes 4. Biden concedes Please clarify point number 2, because recast means re-voting If I'm not mistaken (or re-arrangement?) What's gonna happen is recount in some states and re-arrangement of votes, it's unlikely they'll go for a re-vote unless the election as a whole gets invalidated and replaced. My question is most probably a technicality on the term but please clarify recast. Hey, Well if the Votes get re arranged in some states, which makes Trump win that state, then the electoral college votes for that state will go to Trump and be removed from Biden. Then Rule 3 will become effective. I think with them 4 rules, they have all bases covered in terms of voting.

Wow. Crazy accumulator win. Those odds are insane. I usually stick to betting on 1.1 or lower odds in such long accumulators for obvious reasons which is why your win is truly impressive. He most probably will, biden lead is shrinking and GA PA AZ went back to undecided and biden has 259 votes now, he will prolly lose others as the process unfolds.
You guys seem to be delusional in so many ways. Georgia and Pennsylvania won't flip anymore. Arizona could flip, but I doubt that will happen. Trump going to court and moaning like a loser won't change anything. Move on people.

What do you base the Biden Win on? Because the associated Press said so? Do you understand the Voting System at all? Seriously? The Media does NOT determine Presidents, if it was all done and decided why has the electoral College announced Biden as Winner? Oh wait, BECAUSE HE HASN'T WON!

Sometimes moving on don't solve your problem most especially when there are clear signs that moving on is not the best option for you. Sometimes it better to fight to the last point available on what you believe in most especially when you have evidence and conviction.

Great way to handle this bets around the US elections, showing once more why Stake is one of the best crypto casino's! That's a nice accumulator win! I tried in the past to create multiples with low odds, but I always failed .

You probably started following politics this election and don't know how this works.... Biden has 259 votes already.... PROJECTED ofc, will shrink further.
Am not an expert in the political sector or anything, but I do possess more knowledge regarding the outcome of this election when compared to your delusional rants in this thread. Biden has over 300 votes in his favor. You seem to be expecting Trump to suddenly turn things around in the swing states and win them over. Hilarious. His own family is asking him to concede instead of acting like a sore loser. He is fired plain and simple.

Now I know youre delusional! He has 279, right now! This number will go back and he will fall below the required 270... Where do you read this nonsense, please tell me so I can read these crazy claims

Trump initially accepts voting via mail or email then in the end, when he lost, perhaps the vote counting was misused, he opposed and said that there was fraud The political situation in America may continue for a long time - a month or more than a year I want to say that the site has settled bets election 2020 with a professional way. Where he assumed the loss of the users who voted for Trump . trump was the one who made a mistake when he accepted the vote via mail thank you for stake.com and stunna

Thank you for keeping us up to date on this matter, because it dominated the discussions in the chat the last few days. Yes, I as well feel this is probably the perfect way to handle the situation. We know that Biden won, many people talk about the 2000 elections like it was anything similar whereas there is a million different things happening right now with millions of votes difference total in multiple states versus just one state with few hundred votes difference back in 2000, so it is obvious that Biden won. However we also know Trump fans and we also know gamblers, when you combine it to have a gambler trump fan we all know they will cry out wolf and try to still have a single shred of hope that he might win and they are attaching to this "voter fraud" idea all this well because of it, they hate losing and unless Biden official becomes president there will be ones who will deny the situation.

What is singular is that Biden needs to concede for Trump bettors to win but Trump doesn't have to concede for Biden bettors to early payout. This is a discrepancy and shouldn't be a requirement if it's not applied to both parties.
Betfair, Paddy Power, William Hill, Pinnacle, MyBookie and others are still waiting because the Media doesn't have legal authority. It's fine if you guys want to pay biden early but I have confidence in "We will do our best to employ logic and reasonability around our outcomes as more information comes into play." So it's fine. But remember, the result is always certified by law, not by media, biden bettors weren't owed this outcome. Stake has proven to be a very fair and square platform beyond legal requirements. But I expect compliance and professionality the official result to be honored. The outcome and official result is disputed and not certified, so I expect Stake.com to abide the legal and certified outcome of this election in the same way all major and licensed providers will do. Otherwise there'll be elements for a class action, of course nobody wants that and it'll likely not happen but it's important to think the requirements very well because it's about the official result, media doesn't elect presidents, they called early because it's a collusion, anyways, we'll see. As of now I'm fine with stake.com approach as long as it's legal, fair and reflects the officials decision on the matter which is currently disputed and ongoing. Technically the counting hasn't even ended, and officials have clearly stated recounts, "glitches" are being adjusted and else. As long as the legal and official outcome is respected it's fine. Any action different from the official result will not be legal. Bush vs Gore election lasted 54 days. This is going to take less but I expect fairness to Trump bettors if he wins.
even if stake.com does not want to cancel the bet on trump and trump stayed in the white house and does not want to give presidency the for biden . I hope one of Trump's wealthy because will compensate the bettors of trump on stake.com only . because stake.com already doing a professionelle work

I tried in the past to create multiples with low odds, but I always failed . Parlays are hard to hit and it feels brutally painful when you miss a parlay by 1 or 2 bets and that is what often happens with me. I agree that the stake's stand towards election result is really good but to be fair they should just settle trump as lost and biden as win because clearly even google shows that biden has got it so I don't know why they are taking the risk in case trump wins from court or something like that happens. Good luck for trump bettors but really don't have your expectations too high because as sweet as it sound to have trump do the impossible by proving there was a voter fraud but really I don't think there is a realistic chance at all here.

How amazing it sounds to settle bets despite knowing that the user might withdraw the funds and move on later if they are known to lose somehow it would be a massacre for stake losing every bet technically. Stake keeps giving reasons to love them and really this is a great gesture from them, I was reading on their blog about this statement and really just don't have words for this kind of attitude towards the community, amazing! I did make a bet on Trump so I have little hope now that maybe Trump can reverse things and hopefully come out on top but honestly speaking if that happens stake will lose a big amount of money as they already paying out Biden bets now and will have to pay Trump bets later so I don't know if I should even hope for a Trump win.

I also see the same thing, it's really a good way of showing your truthfulness to your business, there's no need for Biden bettors to wait as it was announced that he win from that counts. But due to any circumstances or any reason from the other camp conceding is not an opton so there are legalities that may take place. Not sure what will happened once there's a turned in events, are stake willing to pay trumps bettors too? And how they'll be able to get those winnings bets out from Bidens bettors, that's considered as free money for them after recieving it.

This is our biggest market ever on stake, the risk for us is in the millions so it definitely sparked a debate internally. Our odds provider is not settling it until next year and we couldn't hold user funds till feb or prematurely say that trump had lost just because the media has called the race. We did however create a set of criteria for what a trump win would constitute in case Trump plots a coup . We tried to hit the right balance here and it has been amazing to see that bettors on both sides of the market have been telling us they are satisfied with our decision.
