Want to bet that Donald Trump will be the next James Bond? What sounds strange at first could make the person who puts a euro on it in a British betting shop rich. It’s just one of the most curious bets in the world… which can be placed at TonyBet.
British bookmakers are famous for taking bets on just about anything. Currently very popular: betting on the new US president. Anyone who places a euro in a British Isles bookmaker’s office on Donald Trump becoming the next James Bond in the cinema can win 1,001 euros if they are right. The logic behind this is as simple as it is ingenious: hardly anyone believed that Trump could become the next president of the USA at the start of the primaries in the States. Now that he has proved the world wrong, the role of His Majesty’s secret agent is quite conceivable for him.
Trump as a 007 agent?
Getting rich with a Trump bet – a real trend in the UK at the moment. If you can’t imagine the US president conquering the big screen as an agent, you can also bet money on Trump’s first state visit. You could turn one euro into 200 by betting on North Korea and the country’s dictator, Kim Jong-Un. After all, there is only 81 euros for scientific proof of extraterrestrial life. Fans of the hit series “Game of Thrones” are now betting like crazy on who will sit on the throne after season seven. The odds are 200:1 against Brienne of Tarth, while Daenerys Targaryen has the best prospects with the bookmakers: the odds are 2:1 in her favor.
The craziest bets are still to be found in the sports sector, especially soccer. Anyone who is anyone these days no longer just bets on the victory or defeat of their favorite club. Nowadays, you can also bet on who will score the first goal with which foot from which position or receive the most yellow cards. Anyone who bets that a completely mediocre club, such as Leicester City, will win the Premier League in England must be crazy. In this crazy bet, the outcome of which is known, the odds were 5000:1 at the beginning of the season on the island last year. The lucky man Leigh Herbert, who bet 5 pounds on exactly that event, ended up winning 25,000 pounds.
Rising stars and music legends
The annals of the Bundesliga alone prove this somewhat reckless bet right. In the 1997/98 season, 1. FC Kaiserslautern won the German championship after being promoted. Anyone who had bet even one Deutschmark on this at the start of the season would have won the crown for the craziest bet.
The most unusual scenarios therefore bring the highest odds.
If, like Leigh Herbert with his soccer club Leicester, you want to make a lot of money for a small stake, you have to look for a bet with odds of 5000:1. The following suggestions are available: Elvis is still alive. Christmas is the warmest day in England in 2017. If you want to stick to soccer, bet on a woman. Five thousand pounds for a pound bet that a woman will become the manager of an English Premier League club this season. Good luck.
