rich bookie

Doesn't it mean there's a very small arbitrage on whether Hilary is a woman or Democrat?

When did bookies go decimal?

I started seeing decimal odds quoted online in the mid 90s but you can generally choose which you prefer.

That bookie is an interesting case. It attempts to be decentralised and stateless...the theory is that it resides in the cloud and under no particular legal jurisdiction using some pretty cool tech to obfuscate where the swarm is hosted. It is obviously questionable whether they achieve statelessness but its an interesting project nonetheless.

tldr, decimal odds are the norm for international bookies.

A sensible hedge given the apparent difficulty of polling weird elections

Made all the more sinister by the fact it's a cake being delivered for the victory party at Trump Tower.
