Is this just because of how much people are betting on him? I mean that's why his odds are changing, it's not because he's more likely to go, right?

Yup. That's what people don't understand.
When hes odds shorten it jus means more people are betting on him to go. Which doesn't really effect voting.

Something is happening, oddschecker has his odds coming right in faster than a race horse on roller skates going down hill with a following wind. :shocked:

When people bet, they tend to vote too.

Especially if they were clever enough to get him at 40/1 earlier ;)

This is reminding me of Callums eviction. An outsider to go, then a spectacular meltdown, odds shortening like mad (while people claimed it was all false info from the bookies) then left.

I dont expect him to go,. But I dont expect him to be saved first anymore.

Mug bets. The bookies are closing down for the night after offering mug bets on sam. They know that some supporters of Dexter and Ginas will vote for sam to go because they know their own man cant win with Sam there. Sam Is still odds on to win even though he is up tomorrow. He is safe but please by all means vote for him because that will leave less in the pot for the final votes on Gina or Dexter.

Noticeably there are only 2 bookies offering odds right now and one of them is the tote, betfair.

You said this when Callum left. You were certain that he was safe and Hazel was a done deal.

Infact I believe you said at one point you were so sure you would apologise to everyone, and leave if Hazel didnt go?

I may have remembered the last bit wrong though (and I dont want you to elave, just making a point :laugh: )

ust so you know....Every bookie has to make a book. They cant put all 4 contestants at evens as it will show the percentages in favour of them by a big margin. If hazel is say 1/2 then the others must add up to an amount that makes the win odds balance out so if callum is 2/1 the twins and dexter must be at least 10/1 and 20/1 to balance the books.

Whats happening today is the crafty bookies are using a herring bait for the book. They falsely shorten Callums odds to make people think he is being lumped on and to do this they must put the twins or dexter bigger. In reality they are inviting sucker bets for no return and punters bite.

When you go to the horse track, watch a horse that's dropping like flies and shortening dramatically, mug punters follow it and bet thinking that the boys in the know have bet it and the horse comes nowhere. The bookies have just conned you by offering a @STEAMER@ when it had no chance. Tonight's steamer is callum. Save your money and back Hazel, she is certain to go, trust the Oracle, I've never been wrong before on the VTE.
