I've bet him $200 at 2-1 odds that Obama wins the election.
I'd bet him more at higher odds, but I don't have a lot of cash, and I'm not a compulsive gambler. I'm looking for an escrow agent . . .

9-Man, send me your money and I will give it to GaGambler after Obama Ben Lyin loses in November.
If you have more confindence in your guy don't be scared of a little money. Two hundred it is, unless you'd like to raise it. An escrow agent is unnecessary IMO, If either one of us welches on the bet, the satisfaction of seeing the welcher run off the board would be payment enough.
If anyone else (Moosie) wants to bet, I'm accepting all wagers on the same terms from anyone who's had the same board personna for at least two years, except JackO. He's already proven that he's all mouth.
No joke, no catch.
I do not support either candidate nor do I see that changing.
But I am intrigued at the energy here, and the fact GaGambler has accepted your wager.
Even though Doc and myself have had some quite heated arguments that I usually won, I would wager 10000 to 1 he is one of the most honest people you could ever find on this planet..
Whatever happened to the 8 to 1 odds???
I would get in on some of that... but 2 to 1 ...I am definitely no gambler..
If I played Black Jack it would be a business..
that I would trust as an escrow agent, it would be Doc. With the small amount of money involved I see no reason to escrow the money. Somehow I don't see Zin cheating me out of a paltry few hundred dollars and giving up any credibility he ever had in the process. OTOH I doubt that Zin is too worried that I will give up my right to post here over a couple of hundred bucks either.
If an escrow agent does prove necessary, I am more than willing to trust Doc with my money. We have disagreed on many a subject, but IMHO he is as honorable as they come.
