Yeah, the eliminations seem nigh-on impossible as Chris Sligh did indeed go after losing out to Haley and Phil as they were in the bottom three. Chris Sligh never did justify the ridiculously early tag of being
THE favourite ante-post.
This week is 'American Classics' with Tony Bennett. Next week's theme is...Jennifer Lopez. This week's elimination odds from
Bet365,
BetCRIS and
Skybet:
Although Phil surely has to go some time, I don't think it'll be this week for him to be gone (this week may play to his 'strengths'). I don't think we'll get too many surprises and the bottome three should be Haley, Phil and probably one of Chris or Gina.
I like the 15/8 over at
Skybet on
Haley Scarnato to be gone if the bottom two is a showdown between Gina and Haley particularly if we get a 'gender balance' elimination in that a female gets eliminated. Gina at 5/1 to be gone is tempting.
The producers will play out this Sanjaya crap until he reaches the final five and then get rid of him (he is this year's Scott Savol).
Pinnacle's odds on where he'll finish:
Interesting to note that Blake Lewis has moved into joint second-favourite to win the whole thing with
Skybet although the offshore outfits like
Bodog,
Pinnacle and
The Greek are mixed as to who out of Blake, Jordin and Lakisha is Melinda's nearest rival.
Lakisha Jones to win AI6 is currently OTB over at
Paddy Power (!?).
