if wagering money on elections wasn't illegal, I would certainly be open to a large* wager on the subject at hand.

*in worthless, but numerous in digit, fiat money

Since when was betting on elections any more illegal than the hundred other things we bet on here? If GCYW is interested, this offer is still open. I'm not even requiring Paul to win.

I'm a bit confused on your terms. Am I reading it right that you're offering 1:1 on $100, and you win if RP polls less than 14% in NH? I'll take that bet any day!

you want to take the > 14% side? just clarifying.

if yes, speaking theoretically, how many digits' worth of fiat money would be your upper limit?

for sure.

adanthar,

how many digits? lol I only do friendly betting, but the total max I'd bet would be $500. If Iron already claimed $100, you wanna take the other $400? Consider it booked if so.

Wasn't someone offering me 1:1 on ron paul getting 8% of the vote in New Hampshire a few months ago? I'd love to take that bet, whoever you were.

lol sucks that my reading comprehension is what made me set the 14% limit. oh well, gambling's fun. and I hope you both lose very badly, but not because of the money! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
