Wager on Survivor: China at betED.com
Sept. 11, 2007
A new season of Survivor premieres Sept. 20 and betED.com is offering various prop bets on the hit reality TV series.
Survivor: China, the 15th installment of the CBS series, marks the first time an American show has been shot entirely in China. This season, 16 castaways will be thrown into the wilds of China where they will compete for $1 million.
Two early favorites to take home the prize money at betED.com are Ashley and Aaron, both +650. Other favorites include Denise (+700), James (+800) and Peih-Gee (+850).
Other prop bets available are whether the winner will be male (-125) or female (-115), and whether any contestants will require medical attention during the series: Yes (+150), No (-300).
Filmed in China?s Jiangxi Province from June to early August, the contestants reportedly faced difficult weather conditions as the heat and humidity of the region is said to be ?indescribable.?
The series begins in the bustle of downtown Shanghai before moving to HuangPu Mountain's Mi Tuo Temple for a Buddhist ceremony where contestants are instructed to leave all of their worldly possessions behind.
The castaways are then taken to two separate islands on Zhelin Lake (translation: the Land of 1,000 Lakes) in the Jiangxi Province, where they split into two tribes, Fei Long (translation: Flying Dragon) and Zhan Hu (translation: Fighting Tiger). Each contestant receives a copy of Sun Tzu's The Art of War for tribe motivation and assistance throughout the series.
Each tribe will have a chance to get a Hidden Immunity Idol, which could save someone from elimination at a future Tribal Council. Two Hidden Immunity Idols will be in plain sight (one at each camp), although the castaways will not realize this at the start of the game. Each week, the winning tribe of the Reward Challenge will be allowed to kidnap someone from the losing tribe. The person who is kidnapped will receive a note from host Jeff Probst before departing for the enemy camp and will be instructed to give it to one member of the enemy tribe (the kidnapped victim will decide who receives it) in private.
The clue will inform this person of the Hidden Immunity Idol located somewhere at their camp. This person must then decide if they wish to share the information with their tribe or keep it to themselves. The kidnapped victim will return to their original tribe at the following Immunity Challenge.
