   I’m not good at numbers; does this mean that they’re listing a Yes vote at 90% likelihood and a No vote at 16% likelihood?
   1. Der April 27, 2015 at 9:19 am

      Correct. Odds of 1/10.
      Implied probability = 1 / (10 + 1) = 1 / 11 = 9.090909091
      Multiplied then by 100 to express as a implied probability percentage of 90.90909091%
      So rounding it’s actually 91%

      With a 16.66% for a no vote, again rounding would give 17%.

         You got the right answer but multiplied by 10 not 100, easier to just use: (Numerator + demoninator)/(Numerator), presuming everyone knows .909 = 90.9%

      Well 91% and 17%, nice 8% edge for them

   Pathetic attention seeking, gambling promoting, trolls.

      Exactly. So much (warranted) talk about banning alcohol & tobacco advertising and the gambling industry gets a free pass. The lotto especially, literally wraps shops up in GAMBLE NOW stickers and signs. My days.

         Good point Cotton, hadn’t thought of the ads inside the shops before ! …so obvious too :)

         What’s with all the neo-puritanism wafting about society these days? Your typical smug lefty is beginning to sound like a 1950’s parish priest.

   And on one fell swoop the doors to the green closet were finally smashed open.

    Outrange, vented spleen, opinions, and so on, or maybe just build a bridge from your dreams and get the f*** over it.
11. Mr. T. April 27, 2015 at 2:10 pm

    Paddy Power would hop on any passing bandwagon. Their marketing giddies need to stop thinking they’re hot stuff with their wacky ideas.

    That’s not a brand strategy. It’s the lack of one.
12. Anyways April 27, 2015 at 7:38 pm

    power to people to vote a big fat YES! :)
