I can't understand why he's not shorter priced than Steve?

Anyone else explain it - from what we've seen not 1.2 to go? Steve is barely featuring while on the HLs shows Dave sits around with his belly out (yuch) encouraging attacks on Corin - he's also had some pretty high eviction polling in the past (probably close with Ben).

Agreed. But then these markets have had such few pennies traded on them that there have been a few bits of value around, laying Mario next evicted at 9's, backing John James to go at 1.2, backing Dave to go at 1.5...

Just grab what you can imo.
Report shrewdbury August 18, 2010 12:56 PM BST
I had some matched on Dave at 1.6!

I'm a little worried he might scrape out of it, but it will still be beyond me how if he does!

Corin will be rapidly adding votes, Mario slowly adding votes, Steve and Dave I'd think would be getting very few votes at the moment...

I reckon it's all closing up after last night. God knows how Sam's doing in the vote though.

i'll be suprised if we dont get 1, its an entertainment show after all. thats what the viewers want.

also if it was that easy to predict who was going/staying, the books would be skint and we'd all be rich.

the bookies love nothing than creating false favourites for the mug fav backers, bread'n'butter of the idustry.

in fact the only people that think steve has a chance of going is us and DS, i think BB would see it as bad press for the cripple to go friday.

Report ghatroonh August 18, 2010 6:00 PM BST
Steve is the big question mark for me.

On the internet his support his terrible, but he does have a profile which does tend to garner disproportionate hate on the internet and on polls namely:
1) He's old
2) He's boring
3) He's a "token" hm who is perceived to have an unfair advantage in the vote.

Generally anyone with any of the above characteristics does better than what internet polls suggest - and Steve has all 3.
Report ghatroonh August 18, 2010 6:06 PM BST
although I do also wonder whether forums and such will manage to get someone out themselves, without the casual voters, with it being 4 evicted.

In any case, I think the 4 going will be:
1) John James
2) Sam / Dave
3) sam / Dave
4) Steve / Corin

Corin is sadly getting lots of airtime at the time she could do without it. She has a big fanbase but also has a fair number of haters - and airtime could spring them into action. She is also the only female up for eviction.

You missed the John James not being 1st but 2nd, shock. Possible if one of the others behaves badly enough in time and gets a bad edit to boot. A 'shock' because nonetheless unlikely to happen.

DSpy have a pretty big hatred of Dave - isn't it the forums that will decide the 3rd and 4th place here?

He's currently second only to JJ1 on negative polling.

Am I being mugged by an insider here? Taking 1.9 Dave to go and laying 1.25 Steve to go.... weird odds.
Report Topper Robson August 19, 2010 11:33 AM BST
Think the key to Steve might be if they show his Keeley comment from yesterday. We are in funny territory here where the vote will be dominated by John James, the other things to consider are will the casuals vote and how long will the lines be open for on Friday.
Four people have to go and as unthinkable as it may be we are faced with losing both Corin and SamSad

I'm responsible for around half the Dave lays on here. Thought he was a terrible price at 1.5 but sadly the market's been very slow so haven't laid as much as I'd hoped. I think he's marginal value now as I make him odds against. I have JJ and Sam goners, Steve probably gone and the fourth spot wide open between Dave, Corin and Mario - with Corin obviosuly coming into the picture after the last two days.

3)you rely heavily on the sympathy vote

Not at all, I'm relying on the fact that he is not a high profile in the edits at the moment, the public have enough hate figures to contend with.

I am, however, relying on the sympathy vote if he does not get evicted, and makes it to the POSITIVE vote.

Nice Top Male book BTW
