What did you bet on?

Minnesota and Colorado.

Not all my money... but pretty close to it. Betting is not for me... I should've known that when I lost 40 dollars on Scott Walker a long time ago.

 

[Owzers]

Rubio reminds me of Jeb. We're totally not losing.

 

[jiggle]

When do I start panicking over Minnesota y'all?

 

[Snowman Prophet of Doom]

Rubio looks legit fucking shook on Fox News. He's not making bad points about how Cruz's campaign looks like shit going forward, but his case for himself sounds desperate as hell.

I loved his straight-faced argument that kasich should drop out because he isn't winning anything except maybe vermont

bruh...

 

[BoboBrazil]

Had to turn Fox News off. I can't take more than a couple of minutes of Rubio.

He's so fetch

 

[BanGy.nz]

Oh, fuck, fuck, FUCK this reverse-racism bullshit argument on CNN right now.



FUUUUCK alllll of that.

He worked for Ray-gun so of course he feels like that.

Got to know when to cut your losses. I had 20 on Hillary for Colorado and started to see she was slipping. Quickly ate a loss and managed to cut my losses in half. Then turned around and bought some Sanders shares so I'm looking at a loss of 5 total.

The big outstanding one left for me is Alaska where I have another 20 riding on Trump.

 

[FiggyCal]

Colorado was a killer. I knew it was riskier than my usual bets but it still hurts to incur a loss of that size for the first time.

Good thing that Cruz in Texas more than made up for it.

It didn't look too bad considering how much you put down. I'm not mad... I lost 16 dollars from my initial investment of 20. It could've been a lot worse. As in if I put more money in.

 

[And_Gignac]

Kind of telling Clinton is winning the same states that Trump Wake up people! /youngturks

Bernie really needed to do well in Texas. Fuck.

 

[Diablos]

Had to turn Fox News off. I can't take more than a couple of minutes of Rubio.

Megyn and Brett were trying their hardest not to laugh at him.

 

[Y2Kev]

Seriously how embarrassing for Minnesota. Get out of the country.

 

[Snowman Prophet of Doom]

The thing is, if Rubio can't even mask a little anxiousness on debate stages and on election night, why the hell would anybody think he has the temperament to be POTUS, negotiating with foreign leaders on matters of policy? You wanna talk about Putin eating someone alive!

 

[Diablos]

Rubio was talking so fast. Like legit nervous breakdown.

They may even be tougher than Chris Christie

 

[Makai]

It's amazing that this whole election is a referendum on Donald Trump. It's supposed to be about the last administration!

 

[Slacker]

Rubio was talking so fast. Like legit nervous breakdown.

They rushed the "Con Artist" patch through development without testing it properly. May be a few bugs popping up in the next few days.

 

[shinra-bansho]

So Rubio is still below threshold in Texas, correct? What's the outcome if he ends up below?

 

[Y2Kev]

Wow basically CNN and MSNBC and even Fox kinda shitting on Rubio. The train is coming to a halt.

 

[kingkitty]

Karl Rove lost his microphone. Massive improvement.

 

[Rubenov]

Emperor Obama stays winning until his retirement

 

[Y2Kev]

I think he won't get any statewide delegates. We have to make sure Cruz doesn't get ABOVE 50%.

 

[Basileus777]

You can only play the expectation game for so long before people turn on you.

 

[Makai]

Overperform means you lost

 

[Snowman Prophet of Doom]

Seriously. Imagine Rubio being POTUS during the Cold War. Khruschev would have nuked Florida out of pure disgust.

 

[Officerrob]

Texas is more than going to make-up the delegate difference from all of Bernie's victories (including New Hampshire) combined

Bernie is going to win MN and CO, Hillary is going to win Mass. Dem night is over

 

[shinra-bansho]

Cruz is at 42, but the Upshot's modelling has him falling short of 50.

 

[Box of Kittens]

Seriously how embarrassing for Minnesota. Get out of the country.

The Vikings and Gophers are punishment enough.

I lost $36 in Colorado. Won a lot more in Texas but this was a good learning experience. I could have minimized the damage if I had cut my losses sooner when the first results came in, but I hesitated and the price dropped another 10 cents before I got out. Decisiveness matters. $36 lesson learned there.

 

[BoboBrazil]

 

[Y2Kev]

Ahaha Kasich is going to try to muscle out Poobio.

 

[NeoXChaos]

so what caucus states can Hillary win at this point? She's probably the 3 on the weekend.

HI maybe?

Take a few lessons from Trump. Just do shit from your gut, then find ways to justify it later.

 

[Rubenov]

Does anyone know the fastest way to track caucus results, specifically for Alaska?

 

[East Lake]

I can't wait to see Marcobot 4.0. Maybe he'll do a dance routine.

 

[Diablos]

The silver lining tonight might be GOP turnout. VA in particular was pretty massive

 

[CygnusXS]

Is it too late to cancel the primary and start over again?

 

[Daniel B·]

I've been completely ignoring the Republican race, but I just watched Trump's speech, plus Q & A (on C-Span), and I freely concede that I've woefully underestimated the caliber and likeability of the man.

Based on this, I predict the following: if Bernie doesn't win the nomination, Trump will be President!

 

[vicissitudes]

Minnesota and Colorado.

Not all my money... but pretty close to it. Betting is not for me... I should've known that when I lost 40 dollars on Scott Walker a long time ago.

Definitely thought about putting some money against Bernie in Massachusetts, Minnesota, Oklahoma, and Colorado earlier today. I thought Hillary would sweep. Glad I didn't. Betting's not for me.

 

[Subtle]

So what exactly happened tonight? Bernie is down hundreds of delegates, but still won a few states. Are delegates the only thing that matter?

 

[cartoon_soldier]

How is MA looking?

 

[The Technomancer]

Yes. A win in Rhode Island is worth less delegates than a win in Texas

 

[Macho Madness]

How is MA looking?

Fox called it for Hillary.

I'm clearly not good at this, but I think you're right.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Fox called it for Hillary.

Great. Delegate wise nothing, but big to win there.

 

[gutter_trash]

Minnesota has ruined my night

Yes. Delegates are all that matters.

Caucuses need to be banned.

Decisiveness matters. $36 lesson learned there.

There was a lot more opportunity to make money that I lost out on because I hesitated. Like whether or not Trump would be 35%+ in polling. Like holy shit ... the shares were in the twenties and I was nervous to put money down. And then I should have stuck with my no for Trump shares in Minnesota... but I wanted to pull out to break even somewhere.

And then I was an idiot and invested it in a bad market.

I'll put more money in next week. I need to cool off.

I'm glad you did well though. I would've felt a little guilt honestly if you lost more.
