Greek Currency Betting Suspended at Ladbrokes and William Hill
Ladbrokes the sports betting giant has announced that after slashing the odds repeatedly, it has now been forced to suspend betting on Greece dropping out of the euro zone by the end of 2012.
A spokesman for Ladbrokes said that it is far safer for them to suspend betting than for them to continue cutting the odds altogether as things heat up in Greece. He added that Ladbrokes have been slashing the odds that Greece will be forced to leave the currency repeatedly over the past few days. The spokesman also undertook to open the book in the event of the gambling group receiving some positive news in the next few days.
Ladbrokes is, however, still offering odds that Greece’s stock market will lose more than 25% of its value in a single day’s trading by the end of 2012. The sports betting giant has also revealed that it is receiving lots of support for the 33/1 being offered that the Euro will cease to exist altogether by the end of this year.
Ladbrokes is also offering odds of 5/6 that the Euro will disappear by the end of 2015 as well as odds of 4/1 that there will be one or more countries leaving the Euro by the end of this year.
After being led by Ladbrokes, its close rival, William Hill has also opted to suspend its own betting market on Greece’s prospects in the Eurozone this year.
William Hill revealed that after odds were pushed right down to 1/4 it was forced to close the market.
UK Bookmakers offering Odds on American Idol 2012
After one of the most exciting seasons of fantastic talent, there are only four standing contestants left in the American Idol 2012 competition.
With popular Skylar Laine having been eliminated from the competition a few days ago, Phillip Phillips, Hollie Cavenaugh, Joshua Ledet and Jessica Sanchez are the four contestants still left in the running.
Twenty one year old Phillip Phillips is the favorite at popular online bookmakers to with the American Idol 2012 competition and bookies are offering odds of 4/5. Phillips is the only finalist never to have made it to the bottom three and this Georgian native has been told by the judges that they admire his uniqueness and that they desperately need originality on the show. The bookies feel that Phillips stands a very good chance of winning the American Idol 2012 title.
Jessica Sanchez, the 16 year old of Filipina and Mexican-American heritage is second in line to win, according to the UK bookies and leading UK bookmaker and gambling operator, Ladbrokes, is currently offering odds of 15/8. Jessica’s performance of “I Will Always Love You” was met with a standing ovation.
According to Ladbrokes online sports betting group, Joshua Ledet and Hollie Cavanaugh have much less chance of winning the competition.
Ladbrokes is offering odds of 4/1 of the 19 year old gospel singer, Ledet, winning the title.
It is felt that Hollie Cavanaugh does not have what it takes to win the American Idol 2012 competition and Ladbrokes is offering odds of 20/1. However, Randy Jackson, one of the judges declared that she has a fighting spirit which could see her advance a little further in the competition.
