Odds shorten on ... as BB winner

NEWS


Rodrigo has cemented his position with the bookmakers as the favourite to win Big Brother 10.

The 23-year-old Brazilian student emerged as the early frontrunner with Ladbrokes, who quoted odds of 5/1 after the launch show.

His odds to win the competition were then shortened to 4/1 and now stand at 7/2, while Saffia is the outsider at 40/1.

Spokesman Nick Weinberg said: "Rodrigo continues to go from strength to strength. We're waiting for a real opponent to emerge, but we've been disappointed so far."

He previously described the housemate as "the complete package" and revealed that "pantomime villain" Saffia had only attracted £30 of bets.

The latest odds to win the show are as follows:

* Rodrigo 7/2
* Charlie 7/1
* Freddie 7/1
* Cairon 8/1
* Kris 8/1
* Noirin 12/1
* Siavash 12/1
* Angel 14/1
* Lisa 14/1
* Sophie 14/1
* Sophia 16/1
* Sree 16/1
* Marcus 20/1
* Karly 25/1
* Saffia 40/1

Sophie's slipped a long way :(

For some reason, don't really think Rodrigo's done much to warrant that odd leading

[Kore]

I dont mind Rodrigo though, I think Charlie will go far

[BaDMaN]

Rodrigo did not react to Cairon's attempt at a joke by jumping on him so nicely, did anyonelse notice this last night? Im sure he see's Cairon as rival as they both like Dogface.

Think that's partly cos there's nothing to mind

Is it too much to ask not to put betting spoilers in thread titles?

I don't think Rod will win, he will go far though!

A lot of us don't like knowing who is favourite to win/go. No problem at all with the threads, I just think a little consideration would be nice. Thread titles like "The Shortening Favourite To Win Is ....." would just be as effective imo. Not moaning or anything, just saying it would be nice for those of us who don't want to know :spin2:

I'm sorry Tom. Won't happen again :thumbs:

Rodrigo is playing the quiet card right now, thats why he is popular. See Charlie has actually been entertaining which caused people to dislike him, so it looks like Rodrigo could win this by staying out of everything and going under the motions, which is not right. A winner should be someone that was entertaining and nice.

It always happens, the people who are quiet become popular in the early days.

[Kore]

I think getting the best odds at the start of the show jinxes the housemate, as people like an underdog.

[Joe_88]

Rod is favorite as he might as well already be in the final hes to nice to get nomed and if he did theres no way he would get evicted

[-HUNTER-]

My tips for nomination this week:

Angel
Saffia.

[Ramsay]

But..hes boring!

[Barmy-Army-2009]

I like a gamble every so often but i am not rushing to my local bookies to put money on Rodrigo even if he is shortening in price i still reckon a newcomer has got a good a chance as any to win this show!!!

[BIG-BRO-FAN]

I hate if latecomers win. The only one I didn't mind winning was Stuart Pilkington in BB9.

[bansheewails]

How can he be? I had fogotten he was in th ehouse!
:shocked:

[supernoodles!]

yay he is my fave so far

[MrGaryy]

they're total idiot for putting Sree so low, clearly C4 love him and are going to edit him in a good light.

But looking at the top 3, this could be my year!!
