And it's taken a massive manipulation by the prods to show it steve.
Well done on the tip |

He's almost certain to be evicted and yet he's still only 8/1. He'll be well odds on if he managed to stay. Jo's history, but who's your favourite housemate as we go into Week 10? Andrew 2% Corin 11% Dave 3% Joe John/ JJ2 1% John James/ JJ1 22% Josie 20% Mario 3% Sam 37% Steve 1% |

By:
Yep, looks very unlikely, but almost certain winner if he stayed imho
The public would react against the golden ticket holder. I've been buying a bit back at these prices as cover. |

By:
It's a slight disappointment we may not get to find out under normal circumstances.
It should also be remembered that Sam's 'cult' status and survival was also manipulated by the prods to a fair extent, and they made every effort to keep him in the house in the first place. |

It's bonkers Cider
A double eviction would have raised as much revenue imo, as Sam and JJ fans target Dave and Steve to save them With this format it seems pointless voting to me |

Feel quite honoured to be on this thread signing in

A double would have given Sam a good chance of survival and even JJ a sniff

I very much doubt that it is a revenue generating twist, GB.
Launching all stars on the same night on the final presumably means the action will be even thicker and faster than usual. This way they can get the more interesting exit interviews (as much as Dave allows) completed in a separate show. |

Well done TR. Did you manage to salvage your book?
|
|
By:
Yes George my origins are in bookmaking, started as a tic tac at 14 and been involved virtualy ever since. So big bro is mostly just short trades to build a green. As I invariably lay, Sam was a skinner for me when he walked in I now have Sam, Josie and Corin all equal which is lucky for me because when I had positions Josie was never one of them and Corin always has been. Im a shoite tipster but a good bookmaker.

You still active on course Topper?

By:
No Squares not at the minute worked for one of the majors for 18 years. Am now sort of retired, will be doing some clerking at the northern tracks over the next few years probably, only casual for a couple of mates who have pitches. It is what I always wanted to do it just didnt work out that way

On or off course for 18 years?
|
|
By:
off course unfortunately for me Squares. Worked as a shop manager R.P.M.O.Y. finalist 2 years running
Got promoted ended up trudging round shops as a line manager hated it but the money was good But the big three arent bookmakers anymore and most of their management have no bookmaking skills at all. Getting dismissed was in hindsight a life changing event for the better. |

By:
cheers Topper, UL with the RPMOY, eh?
Totally agree re: Big 3, and applies to just about all firms really. The industry has gone down an awful path. Halcyon days are long gone on course too. |

Aye you know when youre old you get nostalgic
Happy to be where I am in life though. And my eldest daughter is achieving a lot within the industry and loves her racing![]() |

Spread back up, with Sam 17-20. Hmmm, yts ?!
|
|
By:
Who would be the best buy iyo?
|
|
By:
Defintie sell @ 17 I would price him 1.1/2 ish to be evicted if he survives hes an odds on? dependent on Corin so effectively youre getting 17/33 or bigger a 1/5 shot.
|
|
By:
Cant really see who the value buy would be probably JJ @4 gives you 6/4 in a head to head with Andrew with the possible bonus of the teenie vote pushing him above mario or dave.

By:
Sell is clearly value, buys look ok on jj, Andy and Mars.
