Do you think gambling platforms should avoid political events?

When we look at how many people bet on this US election, we can conclude how popular it is to bet on political events, especially when it comes to big countries. When interest is high, there must be a market for it.

Gambling platforms will not avoid political events when people are interested in betting on them. Is this right or wrong? I think it's OK to bet on politics, it's a competition and it's fine if some people want to bet on their favorites. We can say that it has gone to the next level when we look at the markets on Polymarket.

Exactly. If political events is what makes gamblers more interested and excited to bet, then it’s something that should be included in the gambling platform. The fact that it creates a hype in the casino, it only means one thing, people love it and so they want to make a bet.

However, if it doesn’t get the interest of the people, it shouldn’t be included then. Yes, the previous US election proved that this kind of bet is going to succeed, but it also depends on how prominent the people that they are going to bet.

Political betting is not new in the market and I don't know any reason on why people should avoid it. If other people don't think it entertaining or unethical on their side then they should avoid it.

But we cannot take out some facts that there are gamblers out there who love to bet on politics especially since this adds up the intense set up of that event they are speculating on.

Also for sure the casino would know if there's lack of interest on Political betting and for sure if they see that there's no people betting or had a little demand for this betting option then for sure that the casino would provably take out this option since for sure they don't want to waste their time and money for an option that doesn't get any profits for their casino.
