Cinderella Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 This is what I call an encouraging news just one day before the voting... From 1/13 to 1/5 in 24h. Come on, we still can do it!!! Bwin Begawin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob. Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 http://www.oddschecker.com/specials/olympi...16-olympic-host According to OddsChecker, Madrid's and Chicago's odds are both shortening whilst Rio's and Tokyo's are both drifting. So possibly we're seeing more bets on the Spanish and American cities than the other two. Interesting to speculate, but the bookies got 2012 notoriously wrong, offering ridiculously short odds on Paris in what was, after all, a five horse race. The odds on Chicago are similarly ridiculous and terrible value. The odds on Madrid don't look particularly great either to me in terms of value. The odds on Rio, on the other hand, look rather tasty for a city which is considered joint favourite. And, Tokyo is at 35-1 with some bookies - I reckon that's certainly worth a punt!

Wow... quite a difficult webpage for me to understand, sorry What's the 7/4 & 4/7? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob. Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 7/4 means if you put £4 on you'll get £7 back, plus your original stake. That's generally how odds are written in the UK. In the top right, you can change the page to show decimal odds if you prefer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob. Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 No slash denotes what you'll get back from a £1 stake. 8 just means 8/1, for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I prefer decimals Anyway, I'm glad to see Madrid shortening in international bet pages. Spanish television is saying all week long that Gallardon & the team is doing a very stong lobbying in Copenhagen. Maybe is it working a la London? I WON'T BE ABLE TO SLEEP TODAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!
