Tuesday at American Idol it's Judges Choice night. The final three contestants, Adam Lambert, Danny Gokey and Kris Allen will perform two songs; one chosen by the judges and one of their own choice. One thing is guaranteed; the judges choice will be challenging. A slip-up by any of the final three could mark the end.
Odds on Danny Gokey winning are 3/1 and Kris Allen 5/1. Here's how it works. To win $100 betting on Lambert you would have to put up $300 at 1/3 odds. A $100 bet on Gokey would net you $300 (3/1) and a $100 bet on Allen would net you $500 (5/1). So based on these odds, it does not look good for Kris Allen.
Last week Bodog oddsmakers least favorite to win the contest was Allison Iraheta at 8/1 odds. And sure enough those Bodog oddsmakers were correct as Allison said farewell. Of course these are gambling odds and not guaranteed numbers. That's why it's gambling.
