Barack Obama's parallels to Abraham Lincoln are well chronicled. They hail from the same state. Obama frequently invokes Lincoln's words. And the president-elect will be sworn in on the same bible used by Lincoln at his 1861 inauguration.
So it's a safe bet that Lincoln will be the first former president mentioned by Obama during his inaugural speech, right?
As it turns out, it is a safe bet - but not a profitable one.
In fact, the odds of Lincoln getting the first presidential shout-out are 10-11, according to BetUS Sportsbook.

I wish him well. ... he’ll need a lot of pressure to do what’s right by those most in need.

2 million are expected to descend on Washington to get a glimpse of the man who they believe is capable of bringing change to the US. Other policies Obama is expected to bringing include, full troop withdrawal from Iraq and the closing of Guantanamo Bay Prison.
If online gaming was legalized in the US it would undoubtedly create thousands of new jobs and could kick start an economey currently on its knees.

President Obama hit the ground running on Tuesday by showing the first signs that change is coming to the US. he ordered that all pending regulations that were signed into law in the last days of Bush's term to be halted.
On a day when the country was rejoicing having a new leader, Obama was already working. Among the regulations rumored to be part of Obama's stoppage, is the rules for the UIGEA.

this would be a welcome change especially here in Ohio 😁
Ohio has lost a lot of jobs over the past year , but recently voted down an opportunity to bring a casino to the state. Lyle Berman of the WPT was behind the group trying to bring it here & was promising minimum 500 jobs , but was still voted down. Maybe online might have a better shot here
