Dropped $500 on Ossoff on Predictit

Of he loses, he's dead to me

That's the craziest bet since my Leicester vs. Atletico Madrid bet today.

I dropped 15€ for a Atletico first half lead, followed by a Leicester win at the end of the game.

Quota is 1:51. If I win, I get 750€.



Anyway, good luck with your bet.

Pleaaaase 1 more goal for Leicester ...

I dropped money on an outright win for Ossoff. IMO if he doesn't outright win he doesn't win at all. He'll miss out on a ton of the previous enthusiasm he had and nobody likes voting twice. If Republicans vote like its a primary he should win. Good luck on all of y'all's bets.

[Confused Democrat]

I bet $10,000 on Ossoff winning.

[Ronnie]

You're lying.

[Dr. Arch]

You're lying.

He needs to give me that money instead.

[Tender Branson]

Its the 85th minute. Cmon Leicester !

Obviously, but someone needs to up the anti on Mondale's $500.

$500 is the max you can do on Predictit but you can get around that by opening more accounts

$850 is the max on any individual contract, but you can sometimes max out at $1700 by going all in on Yes X and NO Y.

[Tender Branson]

Leicester vs. Atletico ends 1-1, after a Atletico first half lead.

Didn't win the 750€, maybe Mondale has more luck with Ossoff.

[Classic Conservative]

I feel like Ossoff will win outright.

[Classic Conservative]

Do we have any turnout reports from Republican areas?

[RFK Jr.’s Brain Worm]

Same here. It will be narrow though no higher than 52%.

Only report we got from the Republican county is than they asked for voting to be allowed for two more hours, due to "technical issues".

This race is obviously the most pressing issue currently facing the nation.

No, that was in Fulton County, which is the middle of the three in party leaning.  Cobb is the most Republican, DeKalb the most Democratic.

I don't feel good about this race the expectations has gotten way to high.

Damn...this while time I thought the max was $500. Oh well, I'm not ready to bet more

DO IT

Expecting Ossoff to win outright *is* too high an expectation.  That's not to say it can't happen; it's probably no more unlikely than a Trump win appeared to be on Nov. 6.  I'd guess that Ossoff would be satisfied with anything over 45%.  That would put him in pretty good shape for the runoff.
