I just ran the numbers, and the poll collected 180K sat in bets, but will have to pay out 179,200 sat. After fees though, and our friend solitude loses money. :-(

I am doing it for fun, for BCH adoption and to promote on-chain betting.

If you feel bad for me though, make sure you put a like on my bets! That will make me happy :D

How can you do "betting" when you need an oracle?

Trust less bets in BCH are based on random numbers inside the system. Betting on real world result require oracles or a trust party.

It could work for horse betting too. As long as both sides agree on the 3rd party it's an exception it's workable.

Woohoo! Belgium won by 3 pts so my bet won. I bet the biggest too! Now I'm going to be about $0.30 richer! That was fun, thanks Solutide!

So Costa Rica has to win by 1.5 points? What are the numbers with x, the payout multiplier? So if I bet 1000 on CR & they cover spread I win 2050?
replied 2118d
Costa Rica has to win by 2 goals. In that case, you get 2050 if you bet 1000.

I miswrote. Belgium has to win by 2 goals. Belgium has to score 2 more goals than their opponent.
