Default Did someone walk?

Betting odds for the 11th eviction seem to have vanished?

Probably a lot of money has gone on Harry to go.

this only happens if a betting scam is afoot or someone has walked. After last weeks scam on Marc, I wouldn't put it past them to do it again.

Perhaps Harry brained someone and got kicked out.

On the C5 site all four are still listed as up for eviction, so who knows!

it does seem a bit strange. Sometimes oddschecker has problems with its feed so the odds are not displayed, but betfair isn't showing next eviction as an option at the moment - Has Harry walked?

I have just checked BF and there market is still active Harry is now odds on so this gives support to your above theory.Which if correct is a sod as I backed Sam at 6/1 to go.!

But at this stage the markets will still have small liquidity and it would not take a lot of money to cause this price crash.Another way to do this which costs nothing is to ask bookmakers for a large bet knowing they will refuse it.

So here is one for the plot fans I use some throw away money to create the panic about Harry as a result the prices of the other three increase Sam is currently > 7/1 on BF I then execute getting the real money placed on the HM I think will go at inflated and generous odds which also cover the costs of the organized extra votes to make the result.

The bookmakers use money to manipulate horse racing prices and markets in this way every day.The smart betting syndicates reverse this and use to there own advantage so why not for BB.

All theory I know but it can be done and at least it don't get boring.: laugh:

Some odds are now starting to reappear and Harry is now the 1-1 fav to go.I know she did not have the best of HL shows last night but I cannot believe this is the cause as many will enjoy watching her "tantrums".So I do think some price manipulation as part of an organized betting coup could be the cause.

Still living in hope that they are knocking the price out before plunging on Sam.

I can only quote on what I know. I am a VIP customer of several bookies as I am quite a big gambler and normally I can get any amount I want on based on the fact that I have a track record to go on. This latest round of betting scams have put the wind up the bookies and last weeks scam is a fact, not an opinion. Paddypower reported large payouts on Marc and this week nearly all high street bookies are limiting their bets laid totals to small paltry amounts, even to the likes of me.

So you can draw your own conclusions. The problem they are having this year is that with the manipulation by the producers and the Ofcoms new voting rules, the GBP are not voting in their numbers and the VTE can be so easily manipulated with a relatively small induction of funds and votes to one party. It has been suggested by numerous parties both online on the forums and the odds compilers at the bookies, that anyone can buy an eviction for as much as 20k worth of votes. So when thousands are up for grabs from all the bookies it works like this.

A scam punter places a series maximum bets all over the net with numerous bookies and they can rack up serious laid amounts in the region of several hundreds of thousands at big odds. He then employs a team of speed dialers and the vote goes their way. Last week a scam on Sam would have proved hard to pull off due to the votes already laid on her so marc was a safe bet as his odds were good at 9/2 and votes needed to get him over the line first were not that hard.

Don't forget that these vote counters are only humans and the betters can get an inside man very cheap these days, so if they know how the votes are looking, its dead easy to pull off scams of which Marc was one and its looking like maybe Harry is this weeks sacrificial lamb.

I don't know for sure, but if you look at the number of bookies betting on BB, they run into massive amounts and voting scams being so cheap in retrospect with the VTE, we are looking at easy money these days with all the electronic equipment available to potential scammers.

The independent adjudicators can spot scams with electronic equipment, and would discard votes that are detected

He was also very unpopular and it's a VTE. His fans are irrelevant and couldn't have possibly contributed to saving him, especially when they had three other people to choose from.

It's the same as the Nikki scenario, she was popular but she was also unpopular, and the ones who she was popular with split their votes between 10 other people.
