A British gambler has gambled on five million dollars for Donald Trump to win the presidential election – probably the biggest political bet ever made. The man, a former banker, made the bet through a betting agent registered on the Caribbean island of Curacao. If he wins, he is expected to receive $ 15 million, sources told the British Sun, according to the report, the anonymous gambler went all out after he said and consulted with “officials in the Trump camp.”
“We think this is the biggest bet ever made on a political outcome,” a source in the British gambling industry told the newspaper. Political gambling, which is illegal in the US, is popular in the UK and other countries, and the current presidential election is becoming the biggest gambling event of all time.

In the last four hours, 71% of the money wagered on the 2020 presidential election has been in Trump’s favor, which the OddChecker site’s marketing director says is an “extraordinary fluctuation.” He said, “The 2020 election has so far yielded a gambling pattern very similar to that of 2016 – so, as we got closer to Election Day, more gambling was in favor of Donald Trump.”
Gambling operator Paddy Power told Sun that 93 percent of its last-day bets were in favor of Trump, and betting site Ladbrokes said it identified a similar trend.
