Bodog.com Has Issued Odds on Survivor: Guatemala
« on: August 22, 2005, 08:09:48 PM »
 Sportsbook and Casino  - The Maya Empire

The online sports book, casino and poker site, Bodog, which takes television proposition bets, announced the odds on the Survivor: Guatemala winner.

"I am always amazed by the amount of interest the Survivor series generates among our bettors," says Calvin Ayre, Founder and CEO of Bodog.  "Our pop-culture bettors have such a deep understanding and knowledge of the show that they have successfully predicted the winners of each of the past Survivor editions."

The Bodog book managers use certain criteria to determine contestants’ rankings. The criteria include: Historical evidence, such as the character make-up of past winners and losers; demographics, such as gender, age, and physical attributes; and sentimental and popular culture value - an assessment of how the general public feels about each contestant.

Two contestants are considered the favorites at 2/1 odds: Danni Boatwright, a sports radio talk show host; and Gary Hogeboom, an ex- NFL quarterback turned real-estate developer.  At 20/1 odds, Lydia, a fishmonger from Washington State is the pick for first elimination.

Contestant Odds to Win:

Danni 2/1

Gary 2/1

Brian 3/1

Amy 4/1

Rafe 4/1

Cindy 4/1

Brandon 5/1

Jim 5/1

Morgan 7/1

Brooke 7/1

Brianna 7/1

Judd 10/1

Jamie 10/1

Margaret 15/1

Blake 15/1

Lydia 20/1

ROFLMAO. (looked for the icon of the rolling, laughing smiley face)..So according to THIS article .....Lydia should be gone first....although another Spoiler had her as winning!!! |(

Danni and Gary are not unfathomable as winners...but until I see another hint or spoiler, I am not putting down money!!!!! ]*]

Maybe we should look just beyond these two????   Maybe the next grouping??? I really have no idea!!!! :hapy:

Reality Shows set to return to the screens in September

    NEW YORK, Aug. 24 /PRNewswire/ - Reality TV season is upon us again and
Sportsbook.com is the first to post odds on two of the most popular and highly
anticipated shows - Survivor: Guatemala and The Amazing Race 8.
    "Reality TV has been an unbelievable success for Sportsbook.com. Judging
from the volume of bets we took in last year it's clear that fans of Reality
TV love to bet on the outcome of the shows," says Alex Czajkowski, Marketing
Director, Sportsbook.com. "Betting on the shows gives fans a chance to get
more directly involved in their favorite programs. It really adds to the
excitement of Reality TV."
    Last year, Sportsbook.com had to halt wagering on The Amazing Race
because it suspected that information about the winning team had been leaked.
Sportsbook.com noticed betting irregularities and immediately canceled all
future bets on the show. However, the web site has received a tremendous
amount of feedback from customers asking that Reality TV be brought back to
the fold this season.
    "Last year's leak turned out to be a real issue, but our fans have
expressed serious interest in Reality TV. We'll monitor the bets like we did
last year to ensure that the integrity and fairness of online gambling is
upheld," added Czajkowski.
    The Amazing Race 8, premiering on CBS on September 27, will have a new
twist this year, which should increase interest in the show. Instead of
couples vying for the title, this year's Race features families competing
against each other, with four members on each team.
    Survivor: Guatemala, premiering on CBS on September 15, will continue to
follow its successful model, pitting men and women of all ages and backgrounds
in the ultimate battle of physical and mental endurance.
