It may be illegal to bet on sports anywhere in the US except for the state of Nevada but don’t tell that to former US President Bill Clinton.

During an interview with CNN’s Piers Morgan Tuesday night, Mr. Clinton took the British host up on his offer to place a $100 bet on the upcoming Ryder Cup.

But in true Clinton fashion, the former President stipulated that whomever wins would donate that money to the charity of their choice (we know where the President’s money is going…hint hint here)

And needless-to-say, we know who Clinton is betting.  Go Team USA!

Europe, Pier’s choice, was listed as the -130 favorite.  Team USA was at EVEN odds at BetOnline.

Now as far as the Presidential odds go, Bill Clinton may not be betting his own money – at least not on live television – but he was pretty emphatic that President Barack Obama would ultimately win.  He’s currently between 1/3 and 1/4 odds to do so
