Just to be safe you might want to put it each way, so if he comes in the top 3 you get money.

Unfortunately (or fortunately?) I have zero talents for any gambling concepts and especially when you people start introducing fractions and saying things like 'odds' and 'over/under' etc,
but,
based on your explanation (thank you for that) I would say this is a good wager as I would say he is almost certain to make it to the final 5 and very likely the final 3.
The only problem is that a mass of idiotic teen girls with mobile phones WILL slam John James and Josey into the Final 2 I suspect.

I have no idea how I would even start opening online accounts, clicking things about money etc so I wont do it,
but,
good for anyone who does.
