They're mostly right. I should know, I do bet from time to time.

This statement is illogical

So is your percentage.

You have no proof to back it up.

I do bet from time to time, in most sports, so I do know how it works.

I know how betting works, so what does that have to do with anything?

It only gives you a better chance of winning. If it was that easy, everyone would be doing it and winning, wouldn't they?

I've known about this for years - it doesn't work.

well the article goes on to say that bookies earn money by being right slightly more than they are wrong. They are wrong quite a lot of the time. BB especially. They were totally wrong on last years bb and wrong on celeb bb, so why not this year?

Blink_Me · 12-08-2006, 03:27 PM

Also, that is one website, with one report.

They had chantelle to win right and Ant to win. Can you prove they didn't?

How are they wrong most of the time?

Your 52% is still proving my point to be true, because that's till more than average they're right. I do believe it's way higher than that, because if that was he case most people would win, and I know it doesn't work like that at all.

You are kidding, right?

They had chantelle to win for the last week, nevermind the last day. Also, with Ant, he was favourite for like the last 3 to 4 weeks, I believe.

no, you are wrong I'm afraid

You keep saying I'm wrong, but you never prove it!

I'll prove mine now. I'll try and get old articles for you.

Nikky will cost pete much of his winning vote.And if Nikky puts a foot wrong this week, and she will, Ash will win it.Watch her vote rise through the week and remember Ash agreed to have Nikky back for Pete even though she cant stand her. Ash needs to improve her diplomatic skills especially when drinking but underneath there is a girl with a kind heart and atleast somone who knows right from wrong.All she said to grace was i hope you appologised and then got the `What the outside are saying` routine which is very manipulative and worrying for Ash as it has been throughout. Well Grace i`m on the outside and hope Ash wins!!!!!

tropical_sunset · 12-08-2006, 03:37 PM

Only BB know how the votes are going, so the bookies can only guess like the rest of us. And why be swayed by them, make your own mind up about who you want to win. Personally I dont think *******yne stands a chance. I used to like her (would you believe!!

) but she has done my head in lately

and I am fed up of all this fake tears

, stomping around like she is queen bee

, and generally manipulting everyone

(she drops them all after nominations). GET HER OUT!!!

texbex · 12-08-2006, 03:38 PM

I think she will have some sort of chance but if they do something like they did last year with eugene when he had to decide on taking the money or not and its her then her popularity will depend on that

So true.

That's what I keep trying to explain it to her.
