X Factor 2011
If theres a bet to be had there must be a thread on it :
Early days but looking at Oddschecker 1 name ranged to from 11,s to 25/1 on Bodog , although the maximum bet is £3.60 which is a bit weird and one name who won,t win but could well get to the televised stages and last a few weeks is Ron Davis - ( The big American black guy with the laugh )
In his category he should progress and in a show that throws up suprises all the time he is at least 250/1 as his name isn,t on any of the lists yet. I,ve emailed Sky along with some other bookmakers to request a price and if he gets down to the last 6 or 7 lay him off
Its normally won by young lads who are popular with the girls and can sing a bit so my tip would be
Frankie Coccoza 25/1 (he,s even got a cool name ) £3.60 at 25/1
Gonna try and get some more on him tommorow at 20,s
GL
EDIT - No prices available on Ron davis unless hegets through boot camp , but then you,ve lost your value so I,m sticking with my original tip. he was 20,s at another site but has since gonein to 16,s although i,ve found 28/1 on another site - Valooooo - So i stuck a tenner on
Frankie Coccoza 28/1 £10 win

£10 on Jade Richards at 7/1 (skybet)
Adele is one of the biggest female vocalists over last cpl of years and this girl; sounds a lot like her - not a nut case either like some on this show - very likable which will help with votes
if you fancy a long shot Skybet are offereing 66/1 on the Mad Chinese woman
favourite is now Janet devlin,the young irish girl although 5/2 with Skybet is to short and theres a long way to go and a lot of pressure
that tall skinny guy with glasses who didn,t know where Barcalona was might get a chance
...but I wouldn't bet until the live finals. The bookies already know who's through.
Still got Frankie tho . Its like Louis said tho - " PPl don,t just want singers anymore ". They want characters. Its not all about who can belt out the biggest note and I think Frankie wil get down to last 3, currently 8-9/1
The favourite is still Janet Devlin ( young Irish girl ) at 100-30 at Skybet and top price 4,s which I can,t see drifting much
Theres always a dark horse though and this lad is very likeable with a gr8 unique voice and will just get better imo as the competition goes on
£5 Craig Colton 16/1
had 1 last bet
£20 Janet Devlin to win at 7/2 , but if she is runner up i get money back
had 1 last bet
£20 Janet Devlin to win at 7/2 , but if she is runner up i get money back
£10 on kitty to be next eliminated 6/1 - although theres gonna be a twist so u never know - good value tho
x factor is rubbish :P

AS WITHOUT THE BENEFIT OF A FEW SHANDIES I SUDDENLY SEE IT FOR THE TOTALFIX WE ALL KNOW IT IS.
LOL - better than doing £35 on Tiger Woods
I,m confident i,ve got the winner of this covered now and am looking to make a definate profit as I have done for last 3or 4 year sin a row
My predictions for tonight
Boys - scouser with Curly hair and guitar to go
Girls - the dark haired one - Amelia lilliy will stay , the coloured one will stay and janet Devlin will stay
The over 25,s - I reckon its between the soldier and Jonny robinson
Groups - Definately 2 shoes to go
£100 on Sophie Habbis at 10/11 - first girl to go
£80 on Amelia lilly at 5/4
My predictions by ''mystic loony'' :-
Sophie Habbis to win, Janet Devlin second and third the Risk.
Groups have never and will never come 1st in this, their votes are spread too thin among the general public.
Kitty the nutter may be the next ''wagner'' by that i mean the public voting for her just to p iss Gary Barlow off, so i have a sneaky feeling she will escape the axe on the first public vote cull, unless two go!
The winner will have a number one.
By the start of the next series the mentors will have forgotten all of the acts and moved on to the next batch.
Janet is good & reminds me of Diana Vickers (who is still the only person to make me actually vote) but Mischa was superb on Saturday.
If there smoney to be made _ My value bet this week is
The only winner will be Cowell!
