A gambler living in England makes a $5M bet on Trump

[AbuBhakar]

All countries I think will focus on this election. Even though I am in a different country, I also always follow the development of the world from other countries
and also for America. About this bet, I was quite surprised because it turned out that there were people who would bet that big to support Trump.
But maybe this gambler from England is ready with all the possibilities that will happen. And he is also ready to lose if President Trump does not win the presidential election.
And the New York Times, which has a live vote on their website, shows Bidden getting over 270 votes beating President Trump.

It's too much amount though but maybe he's too rich to mind since with all the news and score Trump gets before there are strong or almost near scores between them before the election, so betting too much is really not safe as they are both in closed fight and have both their respective state supporters. Its hard to predict who will since it's politics that have their system.

It's definitely pure gambling because we have the odds and we are just betting on it, and also, we can never tell who is going to win even if the stats are showing a certain candidate would easily win, and we have proven that in the past when Trump was a heavy underdog but he surprised world and made him the president of the USA, this time, his charm doesn't work anymore.

It's over for Trump, Biden is now officially the new President of the United States

Those who had already staked their bets on the election and Biden's supporters survived with his win.

These two candidates are quite strong in defending their position but this is still surprising with Biden's official victory because he has outperformed 74 million votes, look at Google, and also I see the tweet by Trump's son who calls for total war whether he doesn't accept the defeat so whatever they do ?

Americans believe that with this new president they have freedom in any way and are wiser in making decisions.

Trump is the first incumbent President not to get re elected after thirty years,

You say it like its forever ago but that era is just Bill Clinton, I still count it as recent though I agree its generally rare for a president not to get the 2nd term we should also consider the reason Bill Clinton won which was famously 'the economy stupid' if you ever heard that phrase.

Its more a credit to the Federal reserve if you want to go that way as theres been a lack of recessions relatively though thats not true for everyone's prospects.  Constant inflation equates to infrequent recession in theory and also constant deficit and debt too, a mixed positive :p

Real ancient history is Carter who once again was knocked off the job during a recession of 1980 and that was a tough time apparently.

Last update information Joe bidden become the winner but still awhile and we need waiting for from election institution of United State announcement later, both candidate Joe Bidden and Donald Trump claim they are the winner and we most confuse who is real winner Joe Bidden or Donald Trump. Almost election in the world each candidate always claim his is the winner and better waiting for official announcement with who is the winner. Just check on google last minute Joe Bidden has a chance to win because of the voting results while he is superior to Donald Trump by more than 5%, but this is still temporary because there are several states that have not counted the results of their votes.

And for the guy who bet $5 million I hope he can get back his loss to other elections

There's more time to save for $5 million to be again, and I'm pretty sure this bettor will be betting against Biden. lol...

4 years is not enough to gain 5$million again not unless he will be lucky in gambling so he can accommodate the amount easily,but if not?then His business might need to progress faster to obtain such big amount.

Maybe he was betting on Trump because he was following the trend, which gives his bet a good chance to win though.
But this happened!

whatever His hints about the election still he may lose $5 million in just single Bet.Maybe this is one of Trumps partner in Business thats why he can risk and lose such huge amount.

Trump is the first incumbent President not to get re elected after thirty years,

Sad to say but YES.

It's over for Trump, Biden is now officially the new President of the United States

JOE BIDEN WINS THE PRESIDENCY

Joe Biden will become the 46th president of the United States, CNN projects, after a victory in the state where he was born put him over the 270 electoral votes needed to win.

He will take his oath on January 20th, Trump is the first incumbent President not to get re elected after thirty years, I guess the Americans have had enough of his chaotic administration, I hope Biden administration is a Crypto friendly administrator, so things will be easy in the US for us.

And for the guy who bet $5 million I hope he can get back his loss to other elections

Trump have a lot of haters even before when he still not running for presidency, I'm surprised that there is a guy that bet so much money amounting to $5 Million but sadly Joe Biden is the one who first reached the 270 votes that makes him to be 46th president of the US. I actually thought that Trump will win because of his millions of supporters across the states but it is not enough for him to reached the 270 votes. The guy who lose $5 Million are surely in a deep regret or emotional stressed. That money for me is so big wherein you can buy a lot of properties and asset with that kind of money. I hope that guy will regain the money that he losses but it will take time because that money is huge wherein you need a high capital in order to regain it. But for sure he understand the risk or maybe he is a multi millionaire and it is the reason why he bet that kind of money.

Just a good example of huge money lost in betting. But I am guessing there are a lot more gamblers that bet huge amount, maybe the guy from England is the only one that got out of public knowledge. Right now, instead of rejoicing, he is in sympathy with Trump.

For sure its not only him that also put a huge amount on Trump. Its just that he became the most popular one and possible the highest bet.

I'm a bit curious about what is that gambler doing right now after the election. I'm curious on what he is saying right now after putting his bet on Trump . I doubt that he is regretting on betting on him though. Anyway its over and the only thing that he can do is to just move on with it.

I like to believe that there are a lot of fo bettors who bet with a huge amount of money like a peer to peer bet, but this one is publicly recorded, I'm sure he is a high roller, no small-time bettor will bet such a huge amount of money that is decided by an election, because it cannot be rigged.

I don't think it is over yet but it is close.

Trump didn't admit defeat yet. There seems to be some fraudulent shit happened during the vote count and the Reps are carrying this to the court.

The courts decide the winner, not the MSM.

A British gambler has reportedly staked $5 million on President Trump winning Tuesday’s election

If someone can make a bet that size, then likely the money doesn't matter to them. If they don't mind losing $5m, then presumably they're not immensely bothered over winning the bet and netting $10m  (or whatever) either.
However - a bet this size obviously makes news around the globe, so I wonder if it's a mega-rich Trump fan who is trying to influence opinion a bit to increase the chances of getting him re-elected?
Obviously Trump has lost now, but the timing of the bet is a bit suspicious, along with the almost-irrelevance of making the bet at odds of 37/20.

He didn't admit it but the election is officially ended and Biden is the winner I even see it many news article vlog declaring he won this election trump just don't want  to give the position for the winner easly and saying he has been cheated.

[freedomgo]

The results are officially out and Biden is the winner. I pity for the person who just went crazy by betting the 5M on trump and after the news confirmation about it he would be really feeling sad about it. Though he would be very rich so he can bet 5M just on betting but surely it would hurt him for some time atleast.

Are you sure he went crazy with that bet? Maybe it was a well planned bet, and since there's no assurance about the result, we call it a losing bet, but who knows this person is still a winner despite of the lose, you know in gambling, we win some and we lose some, what matters is to be profitable in the end.

This was not planned at all, I guess, the gambler is really rich and tried to bet this just for fun and all as he sees the accumulated bet that leans towards Biden. I also disagree that he may be a winner, cause he definitely loses at this one, and non-other bets regarding this person had been said. But in overall, yeah, the person will not go crazy for this kind, as an assumption that he is very rich, and just having this for fun and games.

Having fun for $5 million bet? I think it's not done that way, well, he could afford to lose that amount and he is a big time gambler, that's it, he risk that huge amount because he believe that his prediction is correct according to his analysis.

Lots of speculation, but $5 million is a huge money for most of us bettors, so we can't afford that, the reason why our attention is on this bettor or this bet which is the biggest bet in political betting as per OP.

I would assume so aswell, to be able to bet $5 Million on one single bet, you shouuld definitely have a very good income. But even if money doesn't really matter so much. Why bet all that money on one single bet? For a president that is not even going to be in your country? If you would like in USA I would maybe understand it, because it could be a publicity act in trying to promote your political views. But living in UK and bet on so large on the US president, seems unreal to me.

[Janation]

Too bad he choose the wrong one. However I don't think it will bother him no one will place $5M on a single bet for sure this person is really rich that he can manage to lose that $5M easily.

I hope he can take that loss.

I think it just stings even though I am not the one that actually takes that loss. I mean, just imagine losing $5M because the people wanted a change, maybe. He should blame the people for that, I'm just kidding, He can take that loss and I think he's still salty about Biden winning. Trump can't go to the white house because it is forBiden? 

[bitterguy28]

This has been considered the biggest political bet ever.

This has been considered the biggest political losing bet ever hahaha

Biden almost proclaimed as president,surely he is now Regretting this decision all His life 

[hahay]

Maybe it is considered as a pleasure or their way of enjoying gambling but for me personally who only gambles for a small amount of money, then I don't think it is a way to enjoy gambling anymore because if someone has gambled large amounts it is an ambition and I don't know what is the impact if the bet loses. If he really had no problem losing that kind of money, it would obviously be a pleasure for him but if he didn't consider the worst, then that wouldn't be the way to enjoy gambling.

This is what you get when you bet all-in based on information from "Trump camp insiders". It seems to me that his source may be a little biased.
