Can you please ignore Betfair for the moment as that market is currently a pittance with only £2500 staked in total.

I would also suggest for ease that you just use decimal odds which will be most understandable for more people (the lower the number the more favoured to go).

The only major bookmaker currently trading is Paddypower. Here are the latest odds (decimal odds in brackets):

Dave 10/11 (1.90)

Rachel 11/8 (2.37)

John 4/1 (5.00)

The trand since opening has been for Dave to become marginally more of a favourite (now odds-on), Rachel's position to remain static in 2nd place, and John'd odds to drift slightly.

I hope they stay this way & Dave goes.

John James is 2nd. Seren. Or am I reading it wrong.

OK - I'll risk the critical bit - when someone who doesn't fully understand gambling markets has ever tried to post odds, they end-up confusing people as the can't interpret trends and intepret them into easy to understand terms for laypeople. Please don't be offended.

People can look for themdelves at any time just using this easy link

You are reading the situation wrong. Oddchecker is currently out of date - the odds I quoted above were taken live from PaddyPower's website

I think I'll just wait for Friday's eviction now, because I'm even more confused over understanding these odds more than I thought I would be.

You've just ignored my above post about ignoring betfair which is mickey-mouse at the moment (£2500 staked in total across the UK)

To repeat:

The only major bookmaker currently trading is Paddypower. Here are the latest odds (decimal odds in brackets - the lower the number, the more fancied to go):

Dave 10/11 (1.90)

Rachel 11/8 (2.37)

John 4/1 (5.00)

I would like to think Dave would go but i suspect it will be Rachel

I'm just being ratty - it's good of you to post for people - I'll help FMs interpret when they don't understand.

Sorry for sounding a rat - it's just that this is what I do with BB - bet £000s on evictions, so I know all the details VERY intimately.

Not anymore, Paddypower now has Rachel as fav to go, also the margin on Betfair has widened, favouring Rachel to go (Rach 1.5, Dave 2.7, J 6.4).

You're right - Dave and Rachel have flip-flopped since I posted

I think this weeks highlights could be the key to who goes between rachel and dave!

[BigBrotherfan4ever]

I really hope Rachel doesn't go.

Or even John if he has a stinker Tue-Thu (Friday HLs do not matter so much as I've read research by bookmakers which says over 95% of votes cast by the time it starts)

Do u think John James is worth a cheeky bet Claymores? Paddy Power has him at 9/2, I have heard that in a three horse race u should always do the outsider, which certainly applied in the sunshine/shabby/keeva eviction!

I don't fancy it at all - BUT if you do, I think you should wait for a bit as I'm sure his odds will get even longer in the next couple of days

I just think some of his teenage fans might get confused with the split vote, he also does have a lot of haters as well as fans! Ben fans feeling bitter maybe..! hmm i might see how he is edited tonight!

People on fansites' forums are an irrelevance TBH as they make-up such a tiny percentage of the public vote - watch how the polls go on the mainpages of these 3 sites:

Main one - BBOnline

Others - bbspy, InsideBB

Google if not got them
