How Often Do you Bet on Politics?

[hahay]

I have never done political gambling.
In my opinion this is truly unique to do, but who are the strong candidates in this matter. In which countries do the voting now? I do not know the political information here. So, it is difficult for me to try to bet on politics.

That's what happens, because there isn't always about elections which make gambling on politics not always available at all times. So, how often do we gamble on politics I think the answer will not be much different, because this gambling will be available when the election season is in progress so it can be said we are very rarely to gamble in politics and never even.

Politics itself is a game, but not really a game of luck in every country. in advanced countries like the USA and China it is still easier to predict with higher chances after manifesto.well, in some countries like mine where your prediction is right and after election, the winner is deprived of the position.it is very dangerous and violent to go gambling about it. so i don't do it at all.

Now i know why it is not too popular since the election will only happen during the election season. Though i've never done gambling before with these political people during the election but it's still good to know that everywhere gambling did exist for the sake of money.

I am never interested in politics so the question of politics is just out of the question for me.
By the way the idea on gambling on politics is good one and this can be applied on the gambling on the celebrities too.  We can gamble like how much dollars the next Hollywood movie will do the business and  this will be interesting betting option.

There is a pretty big amount being wagered on whether Trump will retain his presidency or not in Fairlay at the moment and these kind of bets are worth looking into, but lots of patience is required. I think Trump will retain his title.

What you mentioned is already available on sites like Bodog. For example, you can vote for the actors that you think will win in the upcoming Primetime Emmy awards.

This is one reason. I think betting in politics should be p2p, physical betting with neighbours .

How often do you bet on Politics? Any reason why most people don't really bet on Politics? Do you know any trusted betting site that offers good odds in American Politics?

I think politics is not an everyday, hour, minutes occurrence like games that are frequent. This is a major reason to me. Gamblers bet on happenings even if they are stage managed.

I haven't tried betting on it before, mostly coz I live outside America and I can't find anyone to bet with. I haven't really checked if crypto betting sites hold bets for our elections.

@OP that would have taken guts to bet on Trump in 2016 considering most surveys say Hillary would win. But that really would have made you money had you followed through.

Even I never come cross crypto betting on politics, it is completely new one which I have never seen before. Most of the reviews given to Trump in 2016 were completely negative, but finally, Trump won in the 2016 elections. Betting on Politics is really new one to me.

Maybe there will be for 2020 once the Democrats get their lineup fixed. Might bet on Trump. He's definitely not an underdog now but considering the scandals with censorship, that these media companies are actively trying to hinder him, I'm betting that there'll be enough outrage against it that people who aren't particularly fond of him might vote for him, just coz they dislike these tech giants.

What do you mean deprived of the position? Like the winning candidate don't even get to sit or they immediately remove him/her with a coup? If the politics in the country is that intense, I wouldn't be gambling about it. Heck, I'd probably not make my political opinions public and might not even show up at the polls. Stay safe there bud.

I never bet on Politics, I do like betting on "events" such as the Eurovision Song Contest for example and have made some good money there - simply because it cannot be compared to "usual" sports betting and the bookies dont have as much information - value all the way

[BUK2016]

Well, I don't play politics bet because political position is not something that is on a regular basis and in as much as I am a gamblers I only concentrate on the one I know how to do best and not to be jack of all trades and Master of none.

Well you cant bet on the bookie's knowledge that much unless you them personally. I dont but you might be talking about your local bookie, but what I know is that never consider the bookie as less knowledgeable that you because it is a good bluff to get gamblers into betting. A bookie would not open their shop if they were going to lose more.

I would say that political competitions are often biased and logically made. Although the concept of paid winning of politics is not proven in many elections - it will never be so, I feel this is more of a marketing attempt by many casinos than any real excitement of sports betting.

Yeah its a new way to grab people's attention. Last US election cleared so many things. IMO Online marketing means a lot for politician now. political parties can easily spread their agendas through online rather than making seminars on different states. That's the reason why Hillary and Trump were so much active on social medias during last election. Sometime this kinda marketing is really useful and can make a big difference.

I heard politics betting, but I just try it once because I just want to know what is the feeling when you are betting to some people ( like what is the excitement about it and the entertainment that it will give). But like in typical gambling game you are happy when your candidate won, but the worst part is when your candidate doesn't fulfill he/she promises on his/her speech.

[exbet.io]

We haven't seen PredictIt mentioned on this thread yet. They are a politics-only prediction market, for US only, I believe. They have a special permit to run in the US, but there is a maximum stake per user per market (around 500 USD?). No crypto accepted, and no sign-ups for users outside the US, but some pretty liquid markets, and a lot of depth on US politics. Definitely worth browsing.

We're different, there is also a thread inside our local board where everyone can join this kind of betting game, it's a senatorial election by the way, but I refuse to join. Though I know some about politics, I still refuse to bet because of the wide range of candidates, it scares me that I might possibly have a small chance of winning which result to money lose (I really hate losing money because I know the feeling of difficulty earning it).

But like in typical gambling game you are happy when your candidate won, but the worst part is when your candidate doesn't fulfill he/she promises on his/her speech.

Even you win few dollars from such game, you are still considered a loser because the candidate you voted is either corruptvor useless at all. *Sigh Sad life, I know what you feel because until now I can't feel our economy is rising.

I already seen this betting things on election few times before in some websites and they are really offering high odds, although I never tried looks interesting to bet especially if you are a US resident because you exactly know who is the leading candidate based on your friends and neighbors and speculations from other locations this is not so popular for now especially to some small countries but time may come it will be one of the most entertaining events we can join especially if they include local politicians based on our locations.

I think PredictIt is the only place that US residents can bet on politics legally. Nevada books haven't allowed it previously, and I believe that US sportsbooks after PASPA are strictly sports only...for now.

[Renampun]

just be honest, I've never been Bet on Politics.
in my country, there are no sites that provide this type of betting.

I heard politics betting, but I just try it once because I just want to know what is the feeling when you are betting to some people ( like what is the excitement about it and the entertainment that it will give). But like in typical gambling game you are happy when your candidate won, but the worst part is when your candidate doesn't fulfill he/she promises on his/her speech.

this is the reason I don't like politics and interests, they will definitely break their promises.

[ryzaadit]

Sometimes betting on a politic just for a fun purpose.

In my country, in 2019 there has some election between Jokowi & Prabowo. One supporter candidate was really over pride for their own candidate and makes me don't really care about the politic. But went the election was started, some betting bet make a Bet Match between this candidate. To be honest for me this its was really funny if i bet against one of this supporter who makes a lot chaos on an election day and my choice was right. That's was really funny.

If you bet on a candidate he will win you will be able to get allot profit. But I personally never bet on politics as i don’t found it invest worthy because of low information. But yes while voting I was happy that  the party I voted for was the winner so next time I will be able to bet but for this I will have to gain allot of knowledge.

[robelneo]

Politics seems predictable most of the time but looks like few people actually bet on it. Example, you know Joe Bidden has probably 50% chance of winning the Democrats primary. What stops you from picking and betting on that? Do you bet on politics and what are your winning stats.

Some time around October 2016 after the Access Hollywood tape was released, a certain betting site gave 108 to Trump winning the election. I believed strongly that Trump was going to win despite everything thrown at him. I had $5,000 and wanted to pick the odd. Somehow, I didn't follow through. That could have given me over half a million dollars in winning.

Top gambling sites only offer this when there is an election on the country where they have a lot of members like the United States, here in our country it's hard to do betting because if these so many survey site that predicts who will eventually win, and the worse part is they are always correct in their surveys, no local online gambling site will dare set up a bet here.
