Yet, one thing has changed A LOT over the past month: How betting markets see the race. To answer the "why" behind the movement in betting odds, I reached out to Rufus Peabody , a professional sports bettor and partner at the analytics firm Massey Peabody . Cillizza: Can you explain broadly how betting markets like Betfair and Bovada work -- for politics and sports? Peabody: Simply put, there has been an influx of money bet on Trump, which has driven his price up. I am always inclined to side with liquid betting markets over polls -- they have a track record of outperforming polls and pundits.
