I have done really well making futures bets on politics and entertainment shows but the offerings are pretty limited at my primary book (bet jam.). Is there a specific book that is best at offering a lot of different non-sports bets?

Bodog has a decent selection...So does 5Dimes...Not really sure you'll find much in the handicapper think tank. This should be posted under players talk or sportsbooks and the industry.Comment -

They are a betting exchange located in Ireland, trying to measure public opinion by having people put money where their mouth is, not just answering opinion polls.
They accept U.S. players and most of their contracts are slanted towards U.S. events. Deposit/withdrawal methods not great.
Lots of betting available in business/economics, politics, entertainment, legal issues, current events etc.
NO SPORTS!
Liquidity not great in many contracts until time gets close to the event, they do have a market maker for daily stock market (NYSE)Comment
