Why do you need to fly to Australia? Do you not have any friends or family living in a European country where Betfair is legal?

Wouldn’t it be quicker and cheaper to fly to England instead ?
last time I checked Australia was the only country still offering the betting market, idk why
You're thinking of placing a $10,000 bet on Trump and you don't even check the markets. :shock: :shock:

You know Betfair well, but not well enough to realise it's not a bookie and doesn't have betting shops anywhere in the world, nevermind Australia!!

You also don't know bookies well enough to know that they have limits - they won't take a $10K bet on Trump!!!
looks like 10k to me fella, what you say?

I've noticed people getting frustrated whenever someone mentions something that doesn't fit into their personal belief system, look at the beginning of this thread,.I had a suspicion he was on about backing Trump, but the first replies assumed he was a Biden backer, I couldn't wait for him to tell the forum... look what happened, it went from calm waters to insults.
Insults are the last resort of insecure people with a crumbling position trying to appear confident.
That's not even wisdom you hairy nut sack, back flipping turtle turd!!!

Have to say I admire your conviction.

What are you going to do If (I'll play along) Betfair settle the market in favour of Biden?

You gonna accept the results and admit you were wrong or throw a tantrum?

I am intrigued, that's why I said you're hacking me. I'm always intrigued, regardless of which side of the coin the opinion is coming from.
I see, I never heard that term before in that context, every day you learn something new....
I just made it up... I like it though, it'll be in my toolbox of things to say going forward.

Really gets deeper to the point!

I said you won't get $10K on with a bookie - Betfair is not a bookie!

If you've got assess to Betfair why do you need to go to Australia? If you've already got $10K on what's the problem??

Depends on their ToS which are hopefully waterproof at this point. bet365 literally said we appoint the winning bet as whoever leads on election night which was like the biggest robbery ever. It's not my job to throw tantrums, even though if they appoint him next week there are still 6 weeks to go after that. Biden won't be president, I'm 100% sure on that. I admit I'm a nutjob and was wrong all along the day Biden poses in the Oval Office after Jan 20th.

Do they have betfair betting shops in Australia ? Or is just online only like over here ?
Skimmed the whole thread. But no (at least not any I have seen, but I don't get out much, actually, I never go out).

You cannot bet in-play in Australia either. You gotta bet from overseas IP or via phone (I haven't tried that).

But in short I don't know the answer :)

I can promise you that people will swing. :)

Trump is on this since Sept 2018 and the midterms. Just check how Gitmo tripled in size since he signed https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential ... -election/, thats basically all you need to know whats coming.
I've never looked at this before, wasn't even slightly interested.

Since this post I've seen the time lapse of it since 2003 to now and it's definitely been under construction, which is strange since I also learned that Obama said he would close it down.

One thing lead to another & here I am at 1am looking through videos of the flight log records into GITMO since election day, dig into that what you will (I'm not about to have Biden poms poms explode in my face so I won't go into it.)

What a wormhole... how anyone prefers CNN is beyond me, it's so dry.
