mircea_popescu: not risk per se, just, bitbet is a valuable business publicly owned, its internals may be discussed up to a certain - arbitrary - point.
mircea_popescu: all i'm going to say is that bitbet server holds less than 10 btc at all times.
mircea_popescu: so few people actually try to game it this way.
mircea_popescu: you lose it.
mircea_popescu: furthermore, trying to game it this way exposes you to the following risk : if your bet doesn't make it into a block before bet is closed
mircea_popescu: if you look you will ocasionalyl see "refund" on the bet list.
mircea_popescu: zebedee_ no, for two reasons. one is that bets coming in after the fact are refunded
mircea_popescu: (such as the avalon delivery bet was)
mircea_popescu: there are however bets which only resolve on their stated date, regardless. this is obvious from the wording
mircea_popescu: if the stated resolution is close the bet is resolved now or then, depending on load.
mircea_popescu: there's two loose cases here. if the stated resolution is far off (ie, more than a week), and the bet is clearly satisfied then the bet is paid off now.
mircea_popescu: np np
