[The HOFF]

With it down to the final 3, I had to throw a little money on this guy at this price. I just pray something crazy happens and Bread's hopes and dreams come crashing down when Lambert is ousted.

[Data]

There are many fans who like both of the Big Two. If one of them does not make it to the finals then the other one wins in a landslide.

Do not waste your money, Allen has no chance.

[Bread]

Data is correct...Sorry Hoffster!

Hoff you gonna be around for UFC on Saturday? Are you even getting it after that last PPV debacle?

[andywend]

I believe Allen has a far better chance to win American Idol than people realize.

Throughout this whole event, he has consistently done better in the voting than his corresponding odds would indicate.

Each week there is betting offered on which contestant is going to get eliminated from the show and on several of those weeks, the odds indicated that Allen had a high chance of getting voted off the show and sites like DialIdol also predicted he would be voted off the show weeks ago.

During one particular week, he had a better than 50/50 chance to be voted off and he didn't even make the bottom three.

Women absolutely love the guy (far more than the other 2) and out of the remaining 3 contestants, Allen is the only one that should be wagered on based on the odds currently offered.

Hoffster, put your money down and good luck.

Yes!! It's all about the chicks. Good luck to you andywend.

I am not scared... I'm pretty sure the real Hasselhoff could take Data in a cage match (only if elbows are legal though).

I will NOT be getting this weekends UFC. I didn't bother taking off work. I've bought or watched like the last 10-12 but I just don't have the desire to spend $45 again for this card. I'll just watch the fights on the internet the next morning. I WILL be around for like the next four after that though.

I disagree. The only value I currently see is on never-been-to-bottom-three-Gokey. You can get him at +334 and I would price him at no more than +200 (and that is accounting for the current market price).

[Bread]

He certainly didn't hurt his chances tonight. He should be in the finals. Should...

[andywend]

Hoff, heres hoping you took the plunge and bet Allen at 10-1.

I am ABSOLUTELY CONVINCED that Allen is going to win American Idol and there is TREMENDOUS VALUE betting on him between +250 and +300 against Adam Lambert and here's why:

For all those new to American Idol, back during the 2nd or 3rd season, the finals came down to Ruben Studdard and Clay Aiken. It was obvious to any non-biased person that Aiken was the far better singer and also performed far better on the final night and yet Studdard took down the championship.

They interviewed Studdard's family on the final night and they were all bragging how they voted for him as often as they possibly could (this included his immediate family along with friends, cousins, etc). I have no doubt this kind of thing was happening throughout the season as Studdard lasted far longer than his talent indicated.

I believe this exact same thing is happening with Kris Allen and I am kicking myself for not betting more on Allen @ +250 to make it through this week.

American Idol needs to change the voting process as people should NOT be allowed to vote more than one time per week.

Unless Kris Allen absolutely bombs next week, he will be your American Idol winner.

TAKE IT TO THE BANK!!!!

[Robyn]

I have been certain that Kris Allen was going to win for quite some time now. It only makes sense. Not only do all of the little fangirlies love Kris, the genre in which he sings is what people are buying right now. I do not see Lambert being successful with record sales....who would want to buy an entire cd full of screeching?

[Bread]

I'm scared. Hold me.

[Robyn]

Sorry, my dear. I just don't see it happening. Although...I am sure Lambert will be fabulous on Broadway singing next to Constantine Maroulis.

[The HOFF]

I figure most of the Gokey voters will be voting for Allen.

[Bread]

I'm doomed!

[The Prick]

that emo wannabee elvis lookin' chick was excrutiatin to hear last nite. sang U2 an sounded like Urethra Franklin. sang Aerosmith and sounded like Ethel Merman. normally he dont make me feel like stickin forks in my ears like last nite, cept for that massacre of Johnny Cash but lat nite was horrendous. ouch, and hes gonna win. mebbe him an that Seacrest dude can become life-partners.

[Bread]

I think he did more harm (gay Elvis) the other night than he could ever mend. You don't butcher a U2 classic like that. And it started out sounding good til he turned into Bobcat Goldthwait

[RageWizard]

This is awesome, with Jokey hitting the road, I'm locked into some profits for this contest. I personally think Allen will win, because all the chicks love this dude more than the guy liner Lambert. I bet on Allen a couple of weeks back, and way the eff back I took the Wonder rainman Bread advisement and hopped on Lambert, literally, it was like riding a pig with all that squeeeling he was doing. I can believe that I'm gonna collect on one of these 2 future National Anthem singers for Talladega.

[Bread]

Rage, I'm so very scared for all my Lambert bets. I wish I didn't have them right now. He's still the odds on favorite, so I'm hoping the books know something that I don't. Because I'm not hedging. No way no how.

Is your BadBeats article irony?

[Bread]

If you call me getting my ass handed to me in the most unreal of manners, then yes. Hugely ironic.

[RageWizard]

What the eff am I doing up so early on a freakin Sunday.

I still hope Lambert wins, and not just because I want to see the guy liner drip down his face. If Lambert wins, it will give me the most coin as opposed to Allen winning. Of course Allen would yield some nice profits as well, but Lambert gives more.

If only everything in life was this easy.

[BadNina]

I think a portion of Kris Allen's win is the Gokey effect. The Gokey fans blamed Adam and AI for pimping so much throughout the season and vowed to wipe that smug look off his face.

[Bread]

Gay

[pavyracer]

Will this be the last season of AI? Show has been so bad lately next year singing will not be a skill required to enter finals.

[Robyn]

Pavy, are you talking about American Idol or Dancing with the Stars?

[arda10k]

you hit it off with +1000, nice catch, congrats..

[Robyn]

I figure most of the Gokey voters will be voting for Allen.

Hoffy, you and I are fabulous at capping MMA and AI. Should we be proud of that? yes.
