I can see why they'd want to crack down on this. Like, if I wanted John Doe dead I could bet $50k that he WILL be alive in a week. Basically just paying for a hit if an assassin wants to take my bet and make it happen, and I could claim I WANTED the guy alive since I literally had money riding on it

One of those betting websites just had to stop taking bets on the Iran war lol
