Was 60k in debt (credit cards), 28 y/o, no sizable assets, was considering bankruptcy as a 'solution, thought if I go bankrupt, doesn't matter if it's 60k or 140k, so maxed out my credit (borrowed another 80k ish), Put it on Trump at a variety of odds like a week ago, got 330k back, will jump to 350k if he wins the popular vote (unlikely).

Who knew spending a few weeks lurking pol would pay off finanically haha.

How? I researched back before the primaries how to bet on Trump and all I got was that it was illegal unless you live in nevada. I guess I should just be happy Trump won, not bitter I missed an opportunity to steal money from shitlibs.

The downside being you have to live in the caliphate of britain.

>>1608035
>Could non-NV resident bet on shit anyway

Not that I could find. I guess there are illegal rings always, but I couldn't find a legal place.
>>
>>1608035
Depends on the site. For example ladbrokes in the UK does not allow registration for USA residents, but if you put a fake UK address in and logged in through a UK-based IP they'd probably be none the wiser, unless they decided to look you up (e.g. if you won something big perhaps). I'd imagine this would be similar in other countries with online gambling.

I couldn't recommend anything specific. Most sites have a restricted set of categories of things you can bet on... usually sports, politics, tv, that sort of thing. If you wanted to do something arbitrary you might be able to negotiate something with the business directly.

Don't forget you could always just ask some rich asshole to honour a bet. Good luck with that though.

Hillary lost it with the FBI reopening her case.

Surprised, really surprised, people didn't see this coming.

What's even more funny is she had the President of the United States campaigning for her and still lost.

I would have placed a bet for Trump if the case was not closed, but the damn case was closed before the elections day. This made me think the whole thing was rigged, which it probably is, but the win was so big that it was impossible to rig.
>>
>>1608315
Never have 0 BTC. I would always have 2 figure BTC in my portfolio, so keep at least 10 for long term.

>>1608317

I thought Hilliary was going to win too, don't get me wrong. I literally waited till the last 10 mins to place my bet. I was watching the live map that Google had and talking to my /pol/ friend. He wanted Hillary too, but he was like "Dude, if he wins Pen, it's over." That's when I placed my bet.

I was surprised at this, just as much as everyone else.

Another friend of mine tossed a coin and won $2.5k. Dude literally tossed a coin, head/tails that shit. I laughed hard af.

It's actually not that surprising if you followed Brexit. The media created the narrative, and it was an illusion.

You're correct anon about Brexit.

It's interesting the way the media works.

>You're correct anon about Brexit.

Not really since for brexit all that at least during the day of the vote polls wise everything was withing the margin of error and really was a 50/50 chance on the final day if you actually followed the media, They media hoped remain vote would win but it was actually neck in neck.

Trumps win threw everything out the window since essentially all previous methods of gathering data were invalidate at his win. Trumps win is even more surprising since again even brexit was within the margin of error in the media predictions.

With betfair the money is put in escrow so you can't get stiffed, and if you use a larger site you just make sure they're a big company, besides, bookies base their odds not on polls but where people put their money.
>>
>>1608705
it doesn't really matter. really, it's just money. losing 1 grand, 10, 300 or even a million doesn't change that. you had nothing to begin with, nothing to lose, the worst possible thing that can happen is you will end up back there again

Next time anon. There's always next time. I missed brexit, was caught up in the /pol hysteria, thought I should put money on it, didn't. Learn from it. Heck even this time, if I didn't hesitate, and went in when I had the capital when he was at 6.4 - 1, would have cleared an extra 200k :O.

I know enough math from working my PhD to know there was systemic error in the polling models used that showed Hillary was ahead. I knew that the odds were driven by these polls. I created my own similar model but tweaked the latent variable of a "likely voter". My model gave Trump a 50-50 shot, with most of the uncertainty coming from Florida. The odds at the time were between +300 and +450. I knew I was probably never going to get an EV this good for a very long time. I put in a little over 2 grand and came out with 10k. Would've put more but I'm a poor college student and was gun shy about dipping into my emergency savings.
