    Quick quick - Does it worth it??? - PLEASE LOOK
    Bet on Obama's speech - how long will it take??



    See here:
    The latest breaking UK, US, world, business and sport news from The Times and The Sunday Times. Go beyond today's headlines with in-depth analysis and comment.


    Is that for sure that the speech will take place 17 minutes???
    If so I'm on it, placing 2 equal bets on 14-17 min and 18-21 min


    What do you think people? 30 minutes left to place bet on it!!

    From here:

    "Obama's speech is expected to run about 15-20 minutes"

    Good find imo

      Betting is now closed there, but here's another good one!



      If he says the word "Dream" in the speech - odds: 2.50

      I think it's worth it, what do you think??

        FWIW I have read a lot about a responsibility theme for his speech.

              I would throw something down on that. He's bound to say dream, it seems to me. He is always referring back to figures he respects, particularly MLK and Lincoln. Looks like some value to me.

              I'm wondering if any books I have are offering that. I'm going to take a quick look.

                Crap. Intertops had it (@ -250) and just as I went to pull the trigger, they pulled it.

                They also had odds he would use the word Intertops. +10000

                        I could see him devoting a few minutes to all the recent changes at BetPhoenix, but Intertops I'm not so sure.

                          So eventually did he say the word "dream" or not? I haven't watched the speech lol. Also haven't bet on the word but just curious to know.

                              I wasn't focused like I would have been if I got my bet down, but I did not notice the word dream in his speech.

                              It's possible I could have missed it but I think I caught a small break.

                                This represents an example of what's known as confirmation bias.

                                  He didn't use the word dream in the speech from the text I'm examining.

                                    Now see, that's cool. I knew what I was seeing there but did not know the actual term. Now I do.

                                      Jew here. Never announced it before.

                                      Doing so now so you don't have to ask that question again. Or at least you'll want to amend it so that it seems less hateful.
