betting can be used a little for trends - at times.
The post you are referring to is about morondoog reckoing jim's screenshots of his betfair bets are fake. You know one of those Trumpies on the far right that think because they are on the far right, they are always right?
It's hilarious!
it gets very complex though - because betting houses start covering themselves by laying off and peer to peer betting - gets as confusing as people take to arbitrage betting and similar - and of course - other betting sites are played in a similar fashion.
All the other betting sites are arbing on betfair and with their own affilliates.
polls aren't as complicated.
Polls are just snapshots and are unreliable. Those polled may or may not vote and can change their mind. Hillary Clinton is an example.
this election - IF Harris and Trump are the final contenders - is very easy to guarantee a win ----------- but, one has to put a shitload of money on to make it worthwhile.
