Now that the weekend is over and we are approaching a new Top 7 American Idol voting day the betting odds have shifted a little on both the
Bovada and
Pinnacle betting sites. I generated new graphs because, well, that is what I do for fun!
The interesting trend from Friday is that Phillip Phillips' odds are getting worse whereas Jessica Sanchez's are slightly improved. Colton Dixon's position as the odds on favorite remain steady. This week will be the big test since now everybody knows the save is used up and gone so now everybody has to vote to keep their favorites on the show. With Joshua Ledet's revisit to the Bottom 3, Skylar Laine has now passed him up in the odds which now places her as the fourth favorite. It will be interesting to see if either she or Joshua are in the Bottom 3 this week, as that will show who really is the 4th and 5th favorite. I am guessing Jessica will not be in the Bottom 3 this week, but next week her fans better keep voting hard to make sure she does fall then. I was curious if there would be any separation in the odds for Hollie Cavanagh and Elise Testone, but they remain together, both with 30:1 odds on Bovada and 49.48:1 odds on Pinnacle. I thought Elise would be in worse shape after ending up in the Bottom 3 even with the favored "pimp spot" performing last along with piles of praise from the judges. Maybe the producers will let her perform last yet again since they like doing so.
