WAGERWEB.COM POSTS BETTING ODDS ON THE 78th ANNUAL ACADEMY AWARDS
Entertainment betting odds, including the Oscars, have garnered huge attention the past few years. Wagerweb.com, one of the largest sports betting sites on the internet, continues to meet the demand for these type of wagers.
Hours after the nominations were announced on Tuesday the oddsmakers at Wagerweb finished handicapping the much desired odds for this year?s awards. Odds on the first six major categories were released including: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Actress, and Best Supporting Actress.
"The winners of the Golden Globes will attract the most money over the course of the next few weeks." said Dave Johnson, CEO of Wagerweb.com (http://www.wagerweb.com/) a Globe winner doesn?t always win the Oscar as many bettors like to think. Many bettors expected "The Aviator" to win Best Picture last year after the Golden Globe win. We listed them as a -200 (Risk $200 to win $100) favorite in that category for the Oscars. They ended up losing to "Million Dollar Baby" which we had handicapped at +200 (Risk $100 to win $200). This year we have Philip Seymour Hoffman as the favorite to win for Best Actor. However, I won't be surprised to see us take a lot of money on Heath Ledger in the category. At +400 (Risk $100 to win $400) Ledger will attract some attention."
