If I were to bet on Michigan vs. Ohio State, who would I bet on?

I'll answer this. In a high-liquidity market (which the PI Presidential Market certainly is - volume averages 400,000 shares traded daily in this particular market), bettors (at least the smart ones) buy whichever side they believe to be the better value. So if the aggregate of bettors thought Trump was highly over-valued at 40 percent, they would buy the Biden side because they're getting great value for their money. Given the amount of volume in this market, people who are actually buying shares are currently pricing in a roughly 38% chance that Trump wins. Because if they thought it was say 15 or 20%, then the Biden shares would get gobbled up immediately.

But how many are in my view wrongly factoring in 2016 by conflating this polling lead with that one? That was my point...

Holy fuck...

If you think they're just looking at raw polling, you are more naive than I thought.

You have to realize that polling is his gig here. If the polls are not a true reflection of how the populous feel, his toils are no more noteworthy than last week's weather forecast.

Here is a good example of RT losing his shit: https://www.mibuzzboard.com/phpBB3/view ... 15#p636385

Little nervous about the election, RT?

How does that show he's nervous about the election? Those are points that need to be addressed in my eyes, though I still disagree with RT on coyotes. MW continues to ignore.

Interesting you ignore audiophiles posting habits recently. At least 3 times his usual action.....then again, he claims he "is not a tRump supporter". The idiot Bidet? TC shits? bmw said he was leaving the site. All are off the rails from a posting standpoint lately. But the "dems" are anxious in your eyes. Uh-huh. And you probably think this is the year Michigan will beat OSU too.

I'd vote for Biden if I was guaranteed a Michigan win over OSU, no question. What has Audiophile said that is so offensive? Bidet is a one trick pony, low intellectual douche. It is unclear to me if TC shits is the leftie douche or the rightue douche whose name mocks the leftie. I like bmw, but him and I went at it pretty hard 4 years ago. He was right, I was wrong.

In terms of RT, he's mostly pompous, but he's been lashing out lately.

Didn't say audiophile was offensive...just that he's cranked up his posts ×3 recently. Seems anxious to me.

So you'd sell out your vote for a win against OSU?!? I would need a natty to vote for tRump.

If Michigan beats Ohio State, they are probably a title contender.

MCRF is clearly anxious.

How many new threads with just links with no comments did he post in last 24hrs? I count 8!

If I want an RSS feed, I'll make one!

Trying to educate is not being anxious.
They/them, non-binary and proud.

The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
