Odds Mean Absulute Nothing

So Not All Favs Win,
Like BB8
Samanda Was Hot Favourite
An Brian Won

And Also
RachelWhite+Sunshine! i mean they wasnt even favourite to go
by bookies or Polls.

So Dont Go By Odds.

Rachael White

They do mean something, theyre a good guide.

[oddballmisfitsFTW]

odds are not exact but they do give the best indication for BB especially when compare odds over course of a few days and weeks and whether the odds are drifting or shortening and by how much etc

with Brian and Samanda

Brian was the favourite for many weeks and he never drifted beyond about 4/5 to 1 so he was always very likely to win

Samanda got to 1/10 at one point but Brian never went out to like 10/1 or anything

I reckon Brian won because his fans voted repeatedly and Samanda fans were not as hardcore in their votes

same will happne this year in my opinion

even though John James is drifting I think he has a big fanbase who will vote OVER and OVER and OVER

repeat voting is what wins and John James' fans I think are crazy enough to vote until they either run out of credit or get caught using the phone

[ILoveTRW]

Just because they are not 100% doesn't mean they don't mean anything.

[oddballmisfitsFTW]

and Sunshine's odds shortened dramatically after vaginagate so it was no surprise she went

[Jordan.]

They best be right this week.

Agree with this unfortunely :/

I've been saying this for months ==

We all found out odds meant sh*t when Marcus OWNED Noirin and Halfwit in the evictions and the bookies looked like fails for saying he would go.

NOOOOO!!! Noirin was favourite to go all that week. I hate it when people try to make Marcus out as some underdog hero.
He was nothing more that a perverted old fat bastard.

[Jase.]

Corin or Sam will win, though.

freddie fisher was edited badly all week so marcus would stay.

[Claymores]

Eviction odds are seldom wrong unless one of the eviction candidates makes a huge boo-boo in the period when voting is open.........jungle-cat Victor, Freddie, Rachael, Sunshine all self-destructed. Those are the only 4 examples I can think of from recent times where when the bookmakers' clear opening fave to go didn't

Winner odds are seldom correct as a lot of the money is placed wweks before, and circumstances change as events/behaviours evolve. Winner odds tend to become solely a daily snapshot, and it iis the way HMs odds move is the only indicator of any significance.

Nonsense. Marcus was ten times worse than that.

Thats why he's arguably bb's greatest housemate....bar none. Fantastic.

[machotrouts]

I'm not sure how, from odds getting evictions right the vast majority of the time rather than 100% of the time, you conclude that they "Mean Nothing! FACT". If you jumped off a roof every week but didn't break a limb one in every ten tries, you wouldn't run through the streets screaming "Basic Self-Preservation Instincts Mean Nothing! FACT".

[Blink_Me]

They don't mean much in my opinion.
