I'd bet that the bets at AAM will be mere "shots in the dark", while the correct predictions will NOT appear in the game, because the real insiders will keep quiet as they make much more money IRL if the outcome stays secret beforehand, and the non-insiders don't have enough fantasy (or madness) to guess the outrages yet to come. Same as it was in 9/11.....
