The oldest established North American bookmaker, appropriately named bmaker.ag, has released odds on what will happen next to Egyptian leader Hosni Mubarak.
Demonstrations in the Arab world’s most populated nation continued for a [ninth] straight day with calls for Mubarak to step down.
Odds on Mubarak resigning were set at even odds.
Good news for the people of Egypt, odds were set at -130 on Mubarak not just stepping down but ultimately leaving the country.
His failure to resign had odds of +130, paying $13 for every $10 bet. Of the three options, this was the least likely according to the oddsmakers, though it is hardly a “lock”.
