Still think it will be Wolfie that goes, so thanks for those laying odds against on her yesterday!

By:
Just to echo that this cannot be voided, otherwise there would have been no reason to have the 'any other' option in the selections.
|
|
By:
betfair have covered themselves with the eviction market having "any other", the HS bookies didn't have any other, so they should void.

Anyone worrying that they might void it may want to e-mail BF to remind them of this too.
|

By:
They also have:
If there is an announcement of any change to the established eviction procedure then Betfair reserves the right to void this market at its absolute discretion. What is wrong for anybody with an interest is to leave it suspended while probabilities might change while they pontificate. |

I'm not so sure they want to get rid of Wolfy - it was obvious she'd of gone this week, So why change it?
|
|
By:
Wolfy most likely I guess...but only got two noms, as with Dan
Hazel and Daley could become targets, owt could happen in the DR really |
|
By:
Yep Shirl, they can void if they want
|
|
By:
Not least because the market was obv subject to insider knowledge for a short while. Whoever layed those bets will be complaining
|

By:
I cannot see why they would void this market, what is the point of adding any other ?
How do those poor sods that do their £2 every week ever get a result ? I have not bet on this market, so makes no difference to me, but seems bad if they void it and I noticed AO was matched at 29 for a tenner , so maybe someone had a clue but they still are far from drawing and I do not think it was Insiders otherwise would they not have taken a stripe out of wolfie at odds on . Be interesting to see what betfair do anyway. |
|
By:
They haven't changed the eviction procedure though, because there isn't one this week.
The next 'eviction' will still happen. |
|
By:
There definitely looked to be some insider money around last night.
|
|
By:
If they void this, anyone who lost on a previous 'any other' bet/lay should ask for their money back.
|
|
By:
They probably will

I haven't had a bet on this but wanted to add they are harming the market by their lack of understanding in suspending it. This is the sort of eviction that adds extra betting interest. There are clear precedents that make this market stand as eviction markets have carried forward before and the eviction will be by public vote.

I'm not sure there has been much insider money on BB.
Even back in the old days when the eviction market was open all week, you could still sometimes back those who were up at decent prices, after the reverse ferret or OTHH had revealed who was nommed. Backing any other and laying the others looked worth a punt after Marcus Bentley had said there was a twist but no one would be ssved. A HND was the most obvious alternative. fwiw I haven't had a bet |

Somebody else tell 'em please, I am getting nowhere with them on this :~(

By:
The amounts aren't big enough for me to care either way
|
|
By:
I will tweet them Shirl :)
I also very much doubt TPTB did this to save anyone. They tend to plan it out weeks in advance, even though it looks like they make it up as they go along. |

Have to remember they're doing it for the 'show' not for betting markets. So what FLL said is spot on.

Due to a potential change in the eviction process, the Big Brother 3rd Eviction market will remain suspended until further notice. Crazy |

By:
" due to what looks like a change in the process for the eviction, we are waiting for confirmation as to what will happen. As such, the market will remain suspended until we have that information advailable"
Agree totally with Clydebank, their understanding is harming the market , will lead to an eventual point of extinction imo |
|
By:
I'm the old git who tweeted betfair
 |
|
By:
A change in procedure would be if someone was evicted without a public vote.
There will be a 3rd eviction, decided by a public vote, so no change in procedure. Just a twist, that we have a numerous number of throughout any BB series |
|
By:
Agreed, but they can do what they like really
Just wish they'd hurry up |
|
By:
I've emailed them too to ask them to Unsuspend (wasn't easy finding how to email them from the site either - awful).
The only significant moves that I saw leading up to the announcement last night was some biggish money backing Dan down to Evens so I also don't think there was any insider trading. |

The clues in the number
|
|
By:
I remember one eviction. Was it when Charley Uchea was 'fake evicted'? The next eviction market was left running. When nominations were announced the following week, a second next eviction market was opened and the 2 markets both ran until the next eviction.
|
|
By:
I remember Alex? being thrown out and the eviction being cancelled and the market carrying over to the next week.
Having backed Sylvia @1000 for a couple of quid, who was up the following week and odds on to go, I was rather happy. Along with lori  |
|
By:
And ole Kenny Tong
|
|
By:
And the one who was thrown out for using the N word
|
|
By:
There's been plenty precedents for this (as above, and several others) - why is it so difficult for them to understand?
 |
|
By:
After she'd been in the DR all night, it seemed a good idea to lay her for that eviction and back a few others
|
|
By:
If there is no eviction during a scheduled eviction show, the market will be reopened at the end of the show
Guess with this phrasing in the rules we may have to wait...? |
