Most of my profit is unrealized. I'm set up right now where, if I let it all ride, I'll have a decent profit if Melinda, Jordin, or Blake wins. Actually, if Blake wins, I'll probably break even since I liquidated much of that position at a small loss.

I need to keep some Jordin to hedge the over 24 bet at Bodog. I kept hitting that for the max every time the line moved, so there's some exposure there if Jordin runs away with this. I also have several straight wagers on Melinda that I can't do anything with (besides hedge).

I'm fairly risk-averse, so I'm likely to maintain my positions such that I'll earn a modest profit regardless of who wins (of the front runners right now) rather than go heavy on a particular contestant and risk only winning a small profit or breaking even.

Right now I'm like

Melinda +$5600
Jordin +$5600
The 4 Scrubs -$12000

And voted for Jordin because of looks and marketing. Melinda has the better voice....but she just looks horrible. A three way between Shrek, Eddie Murphy, and a horse type horrible.

Not sure I can do much more than that. Should Phil or Blake, through some miracle of vocal chords, make the final 2 against Melinda or Jordin, I doubt their odds would be anything lower than 4-1.

Don't be too hard on yourself - I think a lot of people here were heavy on Lakisha early on (and I feel bad for the people who bought her in the 30s) but when the bad signs show, sometimes you have to bail.

From the beginning I picked Melinda and Lakisha but I didn't bet on either because I didn't like the odds. I started betting on Kiki when I started getting 9-1 odds or more. Hence my statement the best 9-1 shot ever. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

So if Melinda has no neck, then her and Jordin are currently what in this pole, neck and shoulders?
