Bodog DJIA Prop Bet
Bodog current offers the follow prop bet:
Bet On: What will be the Dow Jones Industrial average closing total be on December 31st 2007? Over 13,600 Points -300 Under 13,600 Points +200 How could the under NOT be +EV? With close to zero analysis, I have to believe that the index, currently at 13,520 has a >33% chance of staying under by the end of the year. For a reference point, the last contract for DJIA to be over 13,750 on 12/31 on InTrade sold for 45.5, or roughly +120. The last contract for over 13,500 sold for 55, or -122. According to these odds, the 50/50 mark is probably around 13,625 (this is a very rough estimate - do the math to get a precise #). With that in mind, I love under 13,600 for +200. If someone wants to run some further analysis, feel free. |

Definite value there. Probably best to look at futures markets as they are probably more efficient that whatever gambling site yuo're looking at ;p

Re: Bodog DJIA Prop Bet
I agree - I'm not familiar with futures markets however, so I didn't get a chance to look around.

Re: Bodog DJIA Prop Bet
lol - moved it to +150 and has a $50 max - not worth the effort for me. Still probably some value though.

FWIW, DJIA is currently below 13600.

Re: Bodog DJIA Prop Bet
Looks like this was pounded down. There still might be value at +130, however it's probably marginal.
