Is Intrade legit?

I know they are legit, but their bets are too hard for me to predict. Obama versus Romney, 50-50. How do you bet this with positive expectancy???? its a casino!!!!
 
No, it's a market in which you are allowed to provide liquidity. At a casino, you cannot add liquidity. HUGE difference.

Intrade is a binary option market. You make 100 or 0. Of course you can sell/buy your shares back before the event.

It's a true market, in which the bids and offers are actually customer orders. There are no main MM's per se....the customers are.
 
I use Intrade, it's allot of fun. The best part is you can show a verlierer who was at your college 8 years ago that you spent $10,000 betting someone would win an election.

If it a "lock", go lay down for 65%.

This thing is much closer than intrade thinks. Rasmussen has Romeny back on top today, after odumbo bump from the DNC.

Rasmussen often had McCain ahead or tied when most of the other polls had Obama winning
