I'm kind of anti-betting any way, so I wouldn't mind it being scrapped

I love looking at the odds, but thats just me. If I didnt look at the odds, i would start supporting someone who is very unpopular without knowing. I look at the odds, and I generally like the people that are not faves and are not least faves, but bang in the middle. Thats weird because I support both Rachel and Stuart and they are just above the middle lol

I dont think its fair that the housemates should be treated like racing dogs
i think betting on them is a bit derogatory

Can't ban it in a free society. Betting is however bad for BB as people bet for gain rather than which housemate deserves to go or stay. therfore the result of BB evictions can be skewed against the wishes of real fans..

For that reason I wish it could be banned and given back to real fans and not money grabbing betteing addicts.....

So basically, you decide your favorites based on how popular they are....
