Far out, things are heating up. Tempted to chuck more on Trump before the odds plummet over this coming week with these videos and the debate.

Can you guys please clarify for me (as I haven't been able to find it mentioned in this thread):
What are the fees involved with PredictIt?
I signed up and then learned about the 5% withdrawal fee (which is steep) and apparently there's a 10% transaction fee on funds where you win a significant amount (as opposed to lose)?
Up to 15% fees seems crazy high.

betfair.com.au is pretty legit. 5% commission on profit, free withdrawals, great odds.

Every time I try to go to one of these EU sites to bet on Trump I get redirected to a .es domain that only lets me bet on sports.
Fucking Spain.

What are other politics betting sites in US?
I am afraid that women appreciate cruelty, downright cruelty, more than anything else. They have wonderfully primitive instincts. We have emancipated them, but they remain slaves looking for their masters all the same. They love being dominated.

I'm not sure if this has been discussed on other threads but could not find it in this thread. For anyone doing last minute bets on Trump or for any other sport, DO NOT take any bonuses that these bookie sites offer, this makes you susceptible to rollover requirements. Example below...
I believe bet365 has a 3x deposit + bonus rollover requirement, meaning if you deposit $100 and get a $100 bonus, you'd have to bet 3x$200 --> $600 before you can withdraw your earnings.
I'm sure most of you know about this, but just wanted to clarify for anyone out there interested in making last minute bets.
Otherwise, have any of you had any issues otherwise withdrawing from Bet365?

^^^ That only applies to the bonus amount.
What you actually deposit (and stake with) can be withdrawn at any time.

I don't think the markets on PredictIt have moved in proportion to events over the past few days. One of two things is happening:
1. What many of us have suspected, the markets were being manipulated, and that money won't leave until election day.
2. The Hillary bets are in denial and refuse to liquidate even though they should.
Or maybe both.

protip:
There are multiple markets where you can bet on essentially the same thing - a Trump victory.
There is a 2016 Presidential Party market, a President market, VP market, and a "will the next president be a woman" market.
Check all of these before buying to figure out the best odds.
While you're at it, 'NO' is typically cheaper than 'YES' for some reason despite betting against a party (taking the field) being a better or equivalent deal as voting for one party.
Right now, for example, you can bet that Trump will win, at $0.34, or you can bet that Kaine will NOT be VP (different market) for $0.28. No brainer
Don't be a chump, shop around and maximize your winnings

I've used bet365 for years and have never had issues withdrawing. They're a wholly professional outfit.

What's the most you guys have ever put on bet365? Have you gotten paid out and withdrawn with no issues?

Yes, please do this Lux. We want you to succeed. Feel free to post your betting slip here for extra congratulations!
Yeah Lux, I dare you to post something. I'll refrain from calling you names here because I know you're FOS anyway, and the gnashing of your teeth will be satisfying enough.
Trump to the House!
Do not underestimate the high energy of Trump's supporter.
