American Idol
Odds: Adam Lambert best odds to win American Idol
The
American Idol 13 are now officially 11, after in the last
elimination round Jorge and Jasmine were voted off, following
the record 33 million votes. Clearly at this stage of American
Idol 8 the ratings of the show are going through the roof and
the sports betting websites as usual are quick to jump on the
American Idol odds wagon. Ever since the show began in January
it was impossible to see any American Idol odds posted by
reputable sportsbooks on the grounds that the Season 8 will not
be as popular as the American Idol has been in the past. I guess
people proved them wrong - 33 million votes for the top 13 was
an record-breaker and the odds makers are now scrambling to
correct their mistake.
The online sportsbook
BodogLife is once again the
first to publish odds on who will win the American Idol season
8, after the top 13 went down to just 11 contestants. The bookie
now goes with the public and the blogs, making Adam Lambert from
California the favorite to win American Idol with odds 7/4. For
those AI fans who just want to know what the betting community
thinks of the contestants, the 7/4 odds on Adam Lambert mean
that people will win $70 for every $40 bet on Adam to win
American Idol. Danny Gokey from Wisconsin is the second
favorite, coming close with odds 11/4 to win Season 8 of
American Idol and Lil Rounds from Tennessee is the third most
likely American Idol contestant to win this season with odds 5/1
on her success. The rest of the contestants will pay on double
digit odds with Michael Sarver being the American Idol underdog
with long odds 40/1 on clinching the recording contract.
