Pickler! Gone! We're Shocked!

No, I mean, we're shocked! Sure, she sang like a howling dog on love songs night, but she'd sung like a howling dog the week before and wasn't even in the bottom three. We really thought Paris was going home this week for sure.

And on the odds side, Chris is back to being the favorite, but you'd be surprised how close the other three are running. Oddsmakers really think it could be anybody's game at this point.

Pickler! Shocking!

I Love My Netflix

So, in the category of not shocking, Neflix is suing Blockbuster for patent infringement. I mean, honestly, I'm not sure if you can patent mail order delivery of dvds. I'm also not sure you can patent wishlists since, you know, Amazon pretty much did that years ago. But it makes sense, because Netflix can't compete wtih Blockbuster's marketing budget, and if they don't do something, the Blockbuster service will probably run them right out of business.

Even though Netflix stock is currently worth, like, 8x what Blockbuster's stock is worth.

Yep. You can read all about the lawsuit here.

And then, if you think you know who's going to win, you can actually bet on it at -120 for either side at Bodog. I mean, I'm just saying, I'm not really sure how Netflix wins this lawsuit. But that's just me.

Click if you wanna bet on the Netflix/Blockbuster battle of the mail order dvd systems!

It's only rock 'n roll, but I like it.

This should be easy money: Pete Doherty, Kate Moss's ex and singer for Babyshambles, gets arrested almost every week for some kind of drug offence. Will he get sentenced at some point this year? Here's what Bodog has as numbers:

Yes is even money.
No is -140.

Now, this isn't the kind of bet you can seriously cash in on. But, if you have a couple bucks left over, it could help build your bank a touch.

Listen, you have about 8 months before the end of the year, so really.

Idol Odds Tighten Up

Just to let you know, I swear I'm okay with Ace being gone. I still have his picture as my computer desktop, and that's really all I need.

The odds tightened up this week. Don't you wish you'd listened to us and put money on Pickler when she was at 12 to 1?

As usual, check the official American Idol Betting Guide for updated odds on all the idols.

Also, if you're feeling frisky, you can feel free to grab a HollyWagers Idol Judges Banner or a Taylor Hicks banner for your own enjoyment.

Survivor betting: bitch slapped.

So there was a leak. Some dummy decided to make a bunch of max bets on Survivor over at Bodog at the end of last week, and Bodog shut the lines down.

E Online said it best. (But don't read the article if you don't want a spoiler!)

What's the lesson we learned today, kids? If you have inside information, be moderate with trying to get your scrilla. Keep that on the down low.

America's Fat Bottomed Girls Were Not Charmed by Bucky

And so he went home. And it was as it should be, because OH MY will it be the best TV ever if Ace sings "If You Want My Body" on Rod Stewart week, which will undoubtedly be his last week on the show.

Pickler's odds are still inflated, and frankly we're shocked that Daughtry's odds are so good when DialIdol has had his totals slipping each week. Catch up on the week over week shifting odds for the American Idol winner in the American Idol Betting Guide.

Mandisa Goes Home. You Really Shouldn't Sing Shania.

So, Mandisa, Paris & Elliot in the bottom three. People are shocked at Paris being down there, but HollyWagers AND the official oddsmakers odds have been saying Paris can't win. And Mandisa going home? We're sad because we loved to listen to her, but she hasn't really rocked it in a while, so we're not all that surprised.

Bucky? When is he going home? Enough already.

The big Survivor merge!

Now it's really getting hardcore. The new Gitano tribe was formed last week, and now nobody is safe from being in separate tribes. Bodog says that Aras is even money, while Terry is right behind him at 2/1, and Bruce and Sally aren't far behind, both at 3/1. Check the betting guide for the latest numbers.
