Interesting they must have dofferent odds depending where you are. This is what I get

@Sundy nope same odds they are just live betting at moment so Stu's odds keep going down

Posting a SC here. Luke still has the odds fav spot

So if Stu's max loss is the lowest does that mean that Sportsbet is thinking he is F1?

It certainly appears like it

I am all for a mix up and a bit of a spanner in the works. I mean if Luke is F1, very predictable and his SM and travel was all a ruse. If Stu is F1 then it would make sense given Luke's SM activity/traveling as well as the rumors about Stu winning (not to mention Soph hightailing it out the country). Will be interesting to see if Stu's odds or max loss changes over the season  

Either way, things have gotten interesting 

Interesting indeed, @AllAboutLove. The fact that Stu's max loss is the lowest but Luke's odds still APPEAR the best without taking into account the max bet is super shifty, IMO. Makes it look like they're trying to eek out a few more dollars from Luke bets before Stu's odds narrow.

Think of how many weeks betting has been open - with Luke apparently the firm favourite - and how much money would have bet on him. If Sportsbet knew the winner WASN'T EVEN ONE OF THE OPTIONS and they've been taking bets all that time.... I honestly do not know how this is legal. Seriously.

@Sundy what does it mean "wait for confirmation for stakes over the max bet?"  Are you able to bet more under certain circumstances?

@Bobette you called it though weeks ago that Sportsbet could be using Luke to gain some $$$ when Stu comes in and put Stu at a bit higher odds than Luke but have Stu's max loss less. And just like that.... predictions coming true once again with ol Sportsbet 

As for it not being legal... I don't see how betting on a pre-recorded program in the first place is legal so anything else seems fair game I guess

I said it but I didn't actually think they would stoop that low.  WRONG!  Sportsbet will make so much money out of this they could probably afford to buy Channel 10 and Daily Mail and still have change for the vending machine.  I think I'm in the wrong business.

OMG!!! Paging @Bobette


Stu now with lowest odds!!!
