Hedge your bankroll?

[Art Vandeleigh]

I don't have time to read all the posts on this page, so sorry if this is embedded somewhere.

Intrade.com has a new contract up, or at least I haven't seen it until just now.

The contract reads:
Next Major Sportsbook to withdraw from U.S. by Dec. 31, 2007

Nominees are:

WSEX
CRIS
BODOG
Greek
Sportsbook.com
None of the above


CRIS and Bodog shown as most likely, WSEX least likely. Place your bets or make your own market, and good luck

Can't disagree with the pricing, would make CRIS a strong favourite in light of their recent marketing and location. Bodog may be slightly too far in, not sure the price includes the rumored move to Panama away from CR.

Do they define "Major Sportsbook"?

It's only a hedge if your bankroll takes a hit when the site closes. I think even if one of these major books close down, everyone will get the funds (bankrolls) back.

Why is there no market for TS closing down?! lol
