    Congrats Van and company!!!

    EVERYONE here should have something on Hillary at any odds. They are GIVING you money. You just have to wait for it.

    You'll NEVER see another one-sides election like this again.

    It's a shame some of the more close-minded posters here couldn't bring themselves to bet on Hillary. But come on. Is anyone surprised?

    If Hillary wins she likely continues the war mongering that will get us in a fight with Russia. 

    Quite frankly I don't think anything changes whatsoever with whomever is in the white house, but there's like a 1% chance it does with Trump. 

    It basically comes down to my belief that rooting for Hilary is rooting for WWIII, and the money just isn't worth it there.

    If I do vote, which I think is a scam anyway, I'll vote for Gary Johnson so the blood isn't on my hands.

    Great article Scal. I've heard that UK betting houses will pay out sporting events early as well. I'm pretty sure that all early pay outs are discounted. It would make sense.

    I agree that an objective bettor would have found it easy to fade Trump in this election. There were many opportunities to get HRC or "Dem Candidate" at -200 to -300 over the last year. But I don't consider it free money. It's an investment that should produce profit but risks are involved. HRC to win CA=free money. Great Article

    In 2009 Paddy Power was out  $2,000,000  after paying out Tiger Woods backers before the world’s best golfer teed off on Saturday.

    Woods owned a four-shot lead entering the third round and held a two-shot margin entering Sunday’s final round. Y.E. Yang won the tourney, besting Woods by three strokes after a sensational birdie on the 18th hole.

    Paddy Power was confident Woods would take home the hardware ..Woods was 14-0 when holding or sharing the lead at the start of the final round of a major championship.

    The collapse of local favorite Padraig Harrington helped the Irish bookies, but it’s clear that Paddy Power regrets its decision.

    Paddy Power is paying off early on Hillary for the purpose of advertising...

    Congrats Van and company!!!

    EVERYONE here should have something on Hillary at any odds. They are GIVING you money. You just have to wait for it.

    You'll NEVER see another one-sides election like this again.

    It's a shame some of the more close-minded posters here couldn't bring themselves to bet on Hillary. But come on. Is anyone surprised?


    As someone that has put down as much Hillary wagers sub -300 as I could get, I agree with you that gamblers should have been all over this.  Vanzack and others who are just making bets and not being delusional partisan lemmings have contributed to some rational discussions about presidential betting. 

    I disagree with a few of the things you said here.  One  is thenidea thay we will never see another one-sided election like this again.  Think about the fact that Hillary is not likable or a strong candidate and you still got this much of a complete buttkicking 

    Imagine if the dems ran strong, popular and likable candidate like Obama against trump.  The other thing to look at is that GOP has progressively gotten worse and after trump obliterated the party and their current stars or like Christie made them look like completely spineless sell-outs with no principles or character, I am not sure who the GOP has left.  I think it is possible that it gets worse as the GOP has run out of bullets and might be susceptible to another RINO reality tv star playing the pied piper.

    Books do this for free advertising. All the newspaper would cover it and they get tons of free advertising. But in reality it was probably lot less than million....no one can verify the amount paid out.

    The collapse of local favorite Padraig Harrington helped the Irish bookies, but it’s clear that Paddy Power regrets its decision.

    Paddy Power is paying off early on Hillary for the purpose of advertising...



    Paddy Power paying off early on HRC for advertising makes sense. And if they find themselves able to pay off early at a discount and create advertising buzz then it sounds like a shrewd move on their part IMO.

    Makes sense from a gambling/gambler's perspective.  We are on a gambling oriented website discussing this book and giving them free exposure so what they are doing seems to be working.

    But at the same time this is political betting and real gamblers know it is not the same as sports betting at all. So unlike a sports event with a heavy favorite and the dog having a fighting chance, I think it is now common knowledge around the world that the election is over. 

    I mocked trump and his supporters trying to get Hillary locked up or hoping she was too sick as being sad and desperate cards to try to play, but now that we see how bad trump is and more awful that people could have imagined it seems like the jail/sick cards were the only ones that trump and his supporters had to play regardless of how pathetic and sad

My account has not been credited yet. No early payouts being offered to me. It needs to play out.

The Brigade of Deplorables is now a GOP problem and Trump gets to walk way after the election and wash his hands of them.....The question remains what the GOP does with them. They are significant in numbers but are they relevant? The answer is Yes.....which is why I predict that we will see a grand public fight between The GOP and Trump campaign over who really is the rightful owner of Trump's small donor list after the election.

    I am telling you guys, this is a marketing PR job by the paddypowers. There is no way to to verify the total they are paying and the total that was bet on Trump.  How can they pay millions for this bet but they limited my betting account after my account gained $30,000 in 3 months when i bet the bettingresource wise-guy 10 unit picks at $2500 per game? these books don't like long term winners and shut down or limit winning account. they like to cater only to losing bettors. 

    This report is definitely a marketing stunt by paddy power. i hope trump wins just to see what they do!
