How is Joe Biden -745 to win the popular vote not free money?

**Booya711** · 10-23-20, 05:02 PM

Still don’t understand the idiots that think this braindead dementia fool is popular??

**thetrinity** · 10-23-20, 05:02 PM

Seen more like -550, that’s an awful number.

**pavyracer** · 10-23-20, 05:04 PM

Better bet is Trump wins popular vote but loses election.

Granted my entire balance will be tried up for a week and a 1/2 but at least I don't have to worry about doing something stupid and losing the whole thing by then. Any advice would be appreciated.

Look up the threads in 2016 that were very similar to this one. You might want to save your money for other bets.

I know. I'm just saying the polls are screwed nowadays, and a number that high is not as much of a lock as it looks. Just looking out for you.

Doug dodgers tonight or they lose series. so ask yourself are they gonna win the world.series?

**Frilla129** · 10-23-20, 05:16 PM

Biden to win popular vote should be -5000, I agree. If there weren't better opportunities available on politics I'd dump my money right into that one, but some of the state and Senate lines are similarly flawed.

Democrats have won the popular vote in 6 of the last 7 elections (Bush 2004 being the exception). California, among other states, will see a massive increase in voter turnout, and California alone will be enough to tip the popular vote to Biden, regardless of what happens in the EC.

It is free money

You ain't kidding..I'm seeing -650 on Betonline & -600 on BetUs. I'm stuck with -745 at BM.

**jjgold** · 10-23-20, 05:21 PM

Hillary much tougher opponent than Biden all you need to know

Appreciate it man but I feel way safer laying this number on something pretty much predetermined than on a random tennis match or college football game ML.

Thanks man you pretty much swayed it for me. Actually right now I'm at 6100 so if I could get it up to 7450 by the weekend to win at least $1K I'm definitely making the bet.

**gauchojake** · 10-23-20, 05:31 PM

Doug if I had 7500 I would totally do it. What could go wrong???

Honestly biggie I could definitely see them losing tonight and still winning the WS. I think there's way more value in the series price -195 cuz there's too many variables involved in a random game that's not nearly as big as 5 or 7. After the Stros almost choked that series and the way LA came back I'd be shocked if they don't win it this year.

**INVEGA MAN** · 10-23-20, 05:47 PM

I’m on it like stink on shit. In Calif he will lose by 4 million. That’s a lot of votes to make up

I get what you're saying but this is a one off bet. I would only risk my entire balance on this much juice on something non sports related if it's pretty much a mortal lock. Just checked fivethirtyeight.com. They got Biden winning the popular vote 96 in 100. Unless he drops dead by Tuesday please tell me how this loses?

so bet it, post the ticket and ill put the popcorn in the microwave

**Doug tushyterror** · 10-23-20, 06:04 PM

I most definitely will. Not to sound like a total douche but I'm not here to BS or attention whore. If I say I'm gonna do it, I'll do it but I gotta get my balance to 7450 to make it worth it. Not there yet.

The main reason the democrats win the popular vote most years is because republicans don’t campaign in California, but many people on California are sick of these absurd shutdowns, I don’t see democrats running up as huge margins in California and New York because of how unpopular the shutdowns in those states are.

So you don't think it's a good bet? I meant to post my balance with the election odds not the World Series price..my bad. Anyway it just went up to - 764. Even though I'm not egomaniacal enough to think my post moved the number I probably should've kept my mouth shut and just bet it & then posted it.

Hey man appreciate the response considering it your 1st post

**MinnesotaFats** · 10-23-20, 06:31 PM

With so many mail in ballots there's a chance ,if anyone is declared the winner early and the other guy concedes, that CA and west coast don't actually tally the votes, ergo the winner in the election is determined, and CA, OR, WA, NV doesnt count 5.5mm mail in ballots or contested ballots for President

**SBR_Guest_Pro** · 10-23-20, 06:33 PM

I don't think it's a lock at all. you're better off putting that money on the Dodgers to win the series

That's a good point and I'm also worried it might be like 2000 where it could take days or weeks till they get the official results. If I could know for a fact the bet will be graded by Wednesday the latest it's a no brainer but now I'm having doubts.

Honestly I can't do it..as much as I like the Dodgers to win it I could never consider baseball a lock.

**lakerboy** · 10-23-20, 06:44 PM

I actually looked at this earlier today and said to myself how could this lose?

**biggie12** · 10-23-20, 06:45 PM

Dodgers a lock to lose if they don't win tonight. Tonight is the play on dodgers dont think -190 is a good price. This is dodgers game 7 and ur getting -150~

my two cents.

I did blow through over 30 yesterday

**pavyracer** · 10-23-20, 06:47 PM

There are some reports out there that Biden would surpass 5 million more votes than Trump.

I liked your bet on TB on Wed. & I can't argue with you on this one but if they lose then the LA SP at even money or better would be the way to go.. no need to start chasing game 4 at -160 or whatever.

**SBR_Guest_Pro** · 10-23-20, 07:01 PM

i'm taking the under 7.5 tonight. 2 good pitchers

I'm looking at a Newsweek article now from October 12 that says Biden has a 99% chance of winning the popular & 91% the electoral. Not to be all wishy-washy but I'm starting to think the smarter bet would just be Biden to win the election $2140 to win 1K. Same win amount over 5K less risk
