Off Topic The Betting Thread

Interesting - cheers for that.

 

Was looking at the Monte Carlo tennis odds the other day, not much value in any of Murray, Djok, Rafa or Stan so had a tenner on any other winner at 20/1, 1 down 3 to go

 

2 down 2 to go, any other guaranteed in the final now, he's been on great form this season has any other, surprised he's so underrated

 

A betting question for the Socialists on this forum.

@SuperChrissyisfantasticPardswasatrocious @DickPlumb @DonCorleone @The Kish @ForestHillBilly @charltonted

How many seats will Labour win at the General Election ?

I will buy lunch (if you want it) for the Socialist who comes closest.

 

Only if there is a bit of pork on the menu - we know how much you guys like it.

Actually, better not.

 

You have lost me ?

 

No got it - pigs heads

 

Socialist

 

I predicted in a PM that would get a bite

 

Anything over 150 will be a result. Minimum 130. The polls are showing 170, but there is always a late swing to the Tories.

 

Can JC beat what the LibDems currently have?... so 8 or 9

 

I would have said 150ish too. But I'm an optimist.

 

I am guessing that you are a muesli and lentils sort of guy - they are on me if you come closest.

 

Muesli > pigs head

 

Two can play the Stereotype Game

 

Sorry still none the wiser?

3 down, 1 to go, now just supporting anyone against the greasy Spaniard

 

For people who are interested in both gambling & politics (just about everyone on here ) the odds on each individual constituency are now out. There is the potential in this market to make money.

I may have told this story before but at the 2015 General Election I had a 15 constituency acca - I got 14 out of 15 right including a couple of outsiders and just missed out on a £2,800 pay day. Wirral West will forever be engraved in my mind.

The Conservatives are currently 2/5 to win the safe Labour seat of Hartlepool - another example of the new type of politics from Jez.

 

Betting on politics? I need to retain a shred of dignity somewhere!!

 

Labour's spread on seats today is 162-168

That may be a little high
