Jesum.....have any of you bettors really thought this through?
Don't you think a guy willing to put up $100,000 with 2:1 just MIGHT know something you don't?
Alarm bells are ringing.
I'm pretty sure that the bet is 1:1, as was clarified early in the thread. That is to say, if you put up 10 BTC, he would pay 10 BTC (thus giving 100% ROI). I may be wrong on betting lingo, though. Even with that said, though, someone willing to put up ~$100,000 against what many people feel is a "sure thing" is almost certainly not shooting blind, but that's what makes this interesting. I'm in on the bet to hedge against Pirate, as well as to just have some more fun in the $#!%storm that will develop in the next couple of weeks. SOMEONE BRING ME SOME POPCORN!
