President 2016

[Dan Druff]

Can you explain?

Do you mean wait until the percentages for Sell Yes collectively add up to 112, and then Buy Yes the same amount for all 3?

You actually Buy No when Sell Yes is 112 or greater.

Sorry major correction you buy the same number of shares not same dollar amount lulz.

Here's the math from a minute ago

Trump Sell Yes - 71
Rubio Sell Yes - 38
Cruz Sell Yes - 5

100 Shares of Trump = $29.00
100 Shares of Rubio = $62.00
100 Shares of Cruz = $95.00

Let's say Trump Wins

-$29.00 on Trump
+$38.00 on Rubio
+$5.00 on Cruz

$43.00 of Profit - $4.30 in Fees - $29.00 Loss = $9.70 WOOHOO

This actually happens fairly often in multi-way races.

Remember you can only bet $850 max per person per contract.

I am a PredictIt n00b. You are showing $4.30 in fees, which would be 10%.

I thought withdrawal fees are 5%.

You do understand that he is lying right?

His campaign strategy is to think through everything he has stood for and done in his life and then say and do the exact opposite.

I could maybe, possibly support a Trump like candidate that held convictions, the problem is he is saying what he thinks will get him elected and then will do the exact opposite.

So in other words, Trump is nailing the game that is politics, on his first try?

Yea he is either 100% genius or 100% Hitleresque personality type

I can never decide and go back and forth constantly

Withdraw fees are 5% of your total.

So if you invest 100 and run it up to 500 and want to withdraw 500 you pay $25 to withdraw the $500.

he has changed his mind cuz American politics has gone completely in the tank the last 10+ years which is why we are supporting Donald the clown trump. Everything is trash and we need to get our own house in order for 8+ years then we can go back to letting everybody else taking advantage of us again.

You mean at the exact same time he started trying to figure out how to become President?

How convenient

Just to be clear, let me know exactly a couple very specific economic policies he has laid out that will get our "house in order"?

thought I made some good pro trump points and nobody refuted my claims and yet u are in this thread every day, must be smartly picking ur battles with ur own irrelevant nate silver data

Ahh, yes, we call that the Costanza method.

Worst election, ever

Also like Bernie in MA tomorrow at +300 and a flyer on Trump +500 in Texas

Terrible post, hes been thinking about running for president his entire life. Ur just like the media vs trump trying to cut everything out of context to fit ur ball-less opinion. Yes, anybody who is not supporting trump is seriously lacking BALLS. This is America, we are the biggest competitive freaks on the planet, we are going to prove we are #1 again whether u want to participate or not. Its either going to happen this year or shortly after, revolution is coming.

And I could give 2 shits about his policies, im supporting the obv smartest/most talented/biggest balls candidate, cant handle these bullshit politicians anymore.

Edit: and before u try to come at me for being ignorant about the policies, I just trust Trump to make good decisions

[Pooh]

No disrespect but trust and Trump should never be used in the same sentence.

I do think he has to build the wall at this point though. His entire candidacy has been based on this fucking wall.

agreed if he doesn't there will be riots in the deep south

Dunno if you missed this in the bernie thread:

This is how Hitler came to power, a socialist making absurd claims.

Yeah but Hitler was a nationalist expansionist. You know, a guy who wanted to make Germany great again? A guy who wanted to build a wall and make France pay for it. A guy that looked west and called Poland a bunch of losers, Russians irrelevant and the Brits needed to be taught a lesson. Something, something, kick out all the Jews. Germans ate it the fuck up.

[4Dragons]

I know 4Dragons already posted this, but now it's on YouTube, so it's easier to watch.

I have to say that I'm disappointed in Oliver here. While I often disagree with him, I respect his humor and presentation of the material. He usually makes a convincing argument.

This time he airballed it.

He attacked Trump for receiving $7 million worth of grassroots donations. Huh? Isn't that supposed to be a good thing? Isn't that the sort of campaign funding that Bernie Sanders is championing? Besides, $7 million is very little for a Presidential campaign, anyway.

He also spent a good few minutes on some petty Twitter argument as to whether or not Trump was really invited on the John Oliver show. Trump claims he was, and turned it down. Oliver claims he was never invited. Who gives a shit? And Oliver presents this as "proof" that Donald Trump lies, while at the same time failing to even prove that his people never called Trump. How can Oliver be certain that one of his people didn't make a hail-Mary attempt to get Trump on the show at some point, and is now denying it? In any case, if that's Oliver's best example of Trump lying, then he just proved that Trump IS an honest guy (which I don't even believe he is).

This more looked like an exercise in Oliver's people analyzing every word The Donald has ever uttered, and then finding any petty inconsistency to jump upon.

Which is too bad, because there's a lot to expose/lampoon/clarify regarding Trump, and Oliver dropped the ball by declining into pettiness.

Should I hold my breath until he does a hit job on Hillary? #InTheTankForTheSkank

Going to that huckster Jim Cramer's site to read the opinion of two buffoon poker players' view on politics.

Ridiculous to the point of twisted comedic genius. I had to stop and ask wtf. Well played.

Didn't read - just the idea was good enough for me.

Best post of day.

The best bet on a favorite tomorrow at least comparing Nate Silver projections with Bovada odds is Bernie Sanders-200 in Oklahoma. He has him at 83% to win the state or should be -500

[rollinx420]

[opalockafats]

Holy fuck. Last two Florida polls Trump up 20 and 16 points. Rubio doesn't take his own state then it's time to drop the fuck out. Same goes for Cruz.

Don't remember who the peckerface is that said Hilary will take Florida over Trump. Check the polls n-word.

Pooh this is peckerface aka opalockafats I think Hilary has a slight chance to beat trump in Florida in the general, willing to take Hilary over trump in Florida or for the presidency. 500 if Druff will hold escrow with 10% of win goes to Druff or freeroll for his troubles, bet open to first taker if pooh not interested

[4Dragons]

Just starting to realize just how strong the Florida PFA contingent actually is. Opalakaflats, Sanlmar, Pooh, 4bet, Michael.. who else am I missing?

[Dan Druff]

Turns out that the Donald Drumpf thing, while amazingly close to the Iceman's assumption of my name (Donald Druff), is a lie.

There are records of Trump's ancestors using the "Trump" name all the way back to 1608.

So.... another fail on Oliver's part.
