Default Voting strategy in a 3 way eviction with 2 going
I’m a fan of Katia, but resigned to the idea that she will definitely be out tonight – but who should I vote for in an attempt to save her the humiliation of being the first evictee?

Will supporters of Heidi and Sov be voting tactically against each other – could Katia benefit from this?

I did politics as a science at Uni - I can assure you that the people who overthink and do tactical voting have never changed any outcome in any election. Far less a few diehards on a website of BB. Vote with your heart or not at all and save a few pennies is my advice.

It always irritates me in multi-housemate eviction scenarios that BB never provide a breakdown of the percentages beyond that of the evictee(s).

If they gave numbers/percentages for all, any sensible gambling scam could quickly calculate the cost of swinging the next close one and go do it.

It iis a simple cost/benefit analysis on this small market

Regarding the betting market - i wonder if the bookies will get it right regarding Heidi/Sov - most now seem to have Sov as second favourite for eviction. I also wonder at what point BB decided to make it a double eviction as i think the best part of Monday passed between the nominees being announced and the double eviction being revealed.

We're donald ducked on sunday as LB has a broken leg and his replacement is crap - Romo can do crossing patterns all day long on a short drop.....hence why I've bet Cowgirls to win

They have her as second fave for the 1st eviction as against an odds on Katia.

This does not mean she's 2nd fave to be evicted FFS can you not read?

Of course i can ********** read - but i assumed that the person with the longest odds would be considered (by the bookies) least likely to be either evictee. For instance, when Sov was at 20/1 earlier in the week, it seemed she would be the favourite to stay.

OK Eistein - betting on 1st eviction is far different from betting who will be evicted in a double...........talk **** and you have the potential to misguide a fellow FM into wrong market - that is what I was getting at

Dude, its not like everyone is expert in betting odds!

I thought, that Heidi would be the favorite to go second, as she was the second favorite to go first. Obviously, its not the case, given the odds you presented, but it makes sense, that one would think so, if they are not gamblers.
