No matter how rich I get, I do not think I would be risking throwing away $30 million. I am also sure that the French authorities are making moves after this ridiculous amount of money betted to prevent encouraging their citizens from following in the gambler's footsteps.
Sports betting, casino betting and betting on becoming the president of America are not the same. In a sports betting, the result of the bet can change at any time, even if it affects the game, but such an attempt is never possible around the US election. For this reason, maybe that person got a confidence that he might win there. Although it was difficult to predict in advance who would win, but we can guess in advance about the wishes of the common people at that moment.
In the current world, the economic situation is not very good everywhere, and various kinds of problems have arisen almost everywhere due to war. In this case, the common people definitely want to see a new president and that is why they might elect Trump. Based on these factors, the bettor has bet 30 million. Because of betting such a huge amount, it will definitely be monitored by the government of that country.
The more gambling he has, the more risk he can take. However, since the amount of money wagered is very high, no ordinary gambler will ever take such a big risk. He has the ability to lose the amount he has placed the bet. Whatever the amount of money wagered in gambling, if it is within a person's ability, then it is not a problem.
