The Sick World of “Who Will Die First” Bets


I hadn’t planned on writing this article. No, I didn’t even know that you could wager on the mortality of both actors and public figures not with a sportsbook that is legitimate! Well, it turns out you absolutely can, and thanks to the twisted souls behind putting the chances for MyBookie.ag, it’s more enjoyable and less depressing than you may think.
For years I’d heard people talking their passing pools about the workplace and on tv shows. Usually, they were composed as a means to publicly predict that a star would be dying shortly (within the year, in the majority of cases), with small follow-through beyond the announcement.
Recently, I’d even heard of a more death pool being organized and run by comedian Doug Stanhope — with a organized everything and site! But those choices pale compared to what is going on at MyBookie.ag — and I am assuming other gambling sites as well — at the present time.
Yes, “Death Matchups” Actually Exist!
To start with, the oddsmakers in MyBookie.ag are hilariously sick, which I will make abundantly clear in later sections. Not only are they placing odds on when an wide selection of celebrities and public figures will perish, but they also set them up into”passing matchups,” where the follow-through picks that of at least two choices will croak first.
It’s how the bookies opt to create these pairs that shines a light in their brilliance. By way of instance, preparing a head-to-head between Demi Lovato and Artie Lange is breathtakingly insensitive. These two have nothing in common outside of heroin addictions and hospitalizations that are recent.
To reword the wager, it is essentially”which of these two troubled celebrities will die of an overdose first?” Dark, huh?
Obviously, they never come out and say,”This is our heroin showdown,” that will probably be depended upon. They set the lines and leave the remainder for you to find out. And while, the whole thing is pretty mean in the modern hyper-sensitive world; why shouldn’t we put our money where our collective mouth is?
It is not like we all are not hypothesizing this kind of thing with colleagues and our friends all of the time. This raises the stakes somewhat. Makes your “I told you so” a smidgen more rewarding.
