Zero volume betting markets in everything
Chess games, on www.intrade.com, but who cares about that tournament? I'd rather see betting on next year's Topalov-Anand match.
I thank Craig Stroup, a loyal MR reader, for the pointer.

Tyler, when you say you'd rather see betting on next year's Topalov-Anand match can I assume that you wish to place a bet on whether or not it will occur? Or on how many times the venue will be moved? Or on whether one participant will pull out shortly before it is to begin?

Aw, c'mon, Akobian is on that list! Vote for our guy! (although in truth, I guess I'd be thinking more along the lines of some of those Ukrainian GMs to be realistic)
