Las Vegas Odds For Dancing With The Stars Season 28, PureDWTS Angels Weigh In

The Las Vegas Odds makers of Las Vegas Sports Betting have placed their bets on the new season of Dancing With The Stars. You can analyze them below. Does this look about right? Let us know in comments. The Pure Angels weigh in below. As you can see we have different opinions…and that’s ok….

Dancing With The Stars Odds to Win DWTS
Ray Lewis +400
Lauren Alaina +700
Ally Brooke +600
Karamo Brown +550
Kel Mitchell +600
Kate Flannery +1400
Hannah Brown +1000
James Van der Beek +450
Mary Wilson +1200
Lamar Odom +2500
Sean Spicer +5000
Christie Brinkley +1200

Dancing With The Stars Sean Spicer to Say Trump in Episode 1 DWT
Yes +1000
No -2500

Dancing With The Stars Who Will be Eliminated 1st
Ray Lewis +150
Lamar Odom -200

Vogue: I don’t think Ray, Lamar, or Sean will be leaving on night one or anytime soon. We will see? I’m leaning towards Kate or Mary leaving first. Here’s a BIG REASON (Sean Spicer’s Casting Explained? Red States Love ‘Dancing With the Stars’) why I don’t think Sean is going anywhere anytime soon.

Heidi: It’s real easy to stick around for a long time when no one is watching or voting EXCEPT the red state folks. Just sayin. I don’t know what’s going to happen, but I’ll be voting very hard for anyone without the initials SS. Coincidence? If that person is anywhere near the finale, this show is done for, totally.

Court: Off the bat, I think they’re seriously overestimating Ray’s ability to win this thing (both based on dance skill potential and popularity) and underestimating both Hannah & Kel’s. If there’s three contestants I think are going to excel regardless of which partner they get, it’s Hannah, Karamo, & Kel – they’ve got Karamo about right, but the other two need to be higher.  Van Der Beek may be able to stick around based on popularity, but a natural dancer he is not – ditto for Ally, although I think her time in Fifth Harmony gives her a small leg up. Lamar’s a bit of a wild card for me – I think he could actually be decent, if his partner is able to pull him out of whatever funk he was in at the cast announcement…and I think that could be an uphill battle. Not even gonna weigh in on He Who Shall Not Be Named…

PureDWTS Season 27, Week 3 – Vegas Odds Update

So we get our first Vegas odds update this season. When we last checked in with the Vegas oddsmakers prior to the premiere, the odds looked like this:

1.) Tinashe – 11/4
2.) Mary Lou Retton – 10/3
3.) Evanna Lynch – 7/1
4.) Juan Pablo Di Pace – 8/1
5.) Alexis Ren – 8/1
6.) Milo Manheim – 9/1
7.) Nancy McKeon – 10/1
8.) DeMarcus Ware – 12/1
9.) Joe Amabile – 12/1
10.) Nikki Glaser – 12/1
11.) Danelle Umstead – 14/1
12.) Bobby Bones – 25/1
13.) John Schneider – 26/1

Now, with the update from Bovada prior to last night’s show, they look something like this:

1.) Tinashe – 7/2
2.) Juan Pablo – 15/4
3.) Milo – 15/4
4.) Bobby – 15/4
5.) Alexis – 8/1
6.) DeMarcus – 8/1
7.) Evanna – 9/1
8.) Mary Lou – 11/1
9.) John – 15/1
10.) Joe – 40/1

Since these were done before Nancy was eliminated, her odds (which I didn’t include in the list) were 18/1.  I see DeMarcus’ odds rose from 12/1 to 8/1 (good thing I placed my bet when his odds weren’t as good 😎 ), although I still think he’s on the low end – I’d actually put him somewhere in between Tinashe and Juan Pablo/Milo, if not at the top.  With all the funny business going on with the voting and the scoring, I think he’s still got the easiest path to the MBT. Mary Lou & Evanna both dropped rather dramatically, while Juan Pablo & Milo had slight boosts and Bobby shot up dramatically (which I don’t necessarily agree with). John improves a bit, and Joe’s pretty comfortably in the basement now.  Curiously, Alexis’ odds remain exactly the same – part of me wonders if the oddsmakers can’t really reconcile the fact that she’s a technically good dancer with the fact that she’s kinda fading into the woodwork, personality-wise.

Thoughts?

PureDWTS Season 27 – Las Vegas Odds Headed Into the Premiere

The Vegas odds…usually make me chuckle.  Bovada has posted their odds headed into week 1, and as I usually do, I find myself wondering just who they put in charge of making these odds…and how much (or how little) they know about how this show works. I tend to think they go more off of how well they think the contestants will dance, and don’t pay as much attention to the voting demographics of the show, or even the popularity of the pros the celebs are dancing with.  So here are the odds at the moment, with the “most likely to win” at the top and the “least likely to win” at the bottom:

1.) Tinashe – 11/4
2.) Mary Lou Retton – 10/3
3.) Evanna Lynch – 7/1
4.) Juan Pablo Di Pace – 8/1
5.) Alexis Ren – 8/1
6.) Milo Manheim – 9/1
7.) Nancy McKeon – 10/1
8.) DeMarcus Ware – 12/1
9.) Joe Amabile – 12/1
10.) Nikki Glaser – 12/1
11.) Danelle Umstead – 14/1
12.) Bobby Bones – 25/1
13.) John Schneider – 26/1

So right off the bat, I think they have VASTLY underestimated DeMarcus.  They really think Nancy, a middle-aged actress who’s been out of the limelight for awhile, has got a better chance of winning this than a recently retired Superbowl champ that spent most of his career with “America’s team”??? 😯 Oof…do you, Bovada. If I were the betting kind, I’d go put some money on DeMarcus right now, while his odds are low. I think they’re vastly OVERESTIMATING Mary Lou – sure, she’s a former Olympic gymnast, but she’s no spring chicken anymore, and likely can’t do the same stuff she was doing at 16; she’s also kind of splitting the nostalgia fanbase with John and Nancy.  I don’t think she even makes it to the finale. I think Bobby has a better shot at winning that John, Nikki, Danelle, and Joe, since he fits in well with the main voting demographic; I would probably drop Alexis a bit, as I’m not convinced her Instagram followers are really going to come through for her.

Thoughts?

Dancing With The Stars Season 25 Pre-Season Las Vegas Odds

Sports Bovada has made their new pre-season Dancing With The Stars Odds for Season 25. Note how they’ve put Nick Lachey at the top to win it all. WHA? Us Angels weigh in below. Let us know what you think in comments too after you take a look at this….

Nick Lachey +400 +
Lindsey Stirling +800 +
Debbie Gibson +800 +
Sasha Pieterse +800 +
Frankie Muniz +900 +
Jordan Fisher +900 +
Vanessa Lachey +900 +
Derek Fisher +1000 +
Terrell Owens +1000 +
Victoria Arlen +1000 +
Drew Scott +1200 +
Nikki Bella +1200 +
Barbara Corcoran +2500

Vogue: Wow! They seriously aren’t giving Jordan Fisher any thought at winning like they should be. In my opinion, I do think Nick Lachey will be a force this season, but, I still think Lindsey and Jordan are the top two contenders. I’m also shocked they would put Sasha, Debbie, and Frankie so high. Did they even study up on this season’s celebrities before predicting? Whatever the case, I do think they have Barbara in the right position. I also think Frankie might be one of the first to go. One more thing: I trust Courtney’s Power Rankings way more. Ha! 🙂

Girls, what do you think?

Courtney: Ooh wee – who made these odds? The president of the Nick Lachey fanclub??? I’ve said it more than once, but here it is again: I am not at all convinced that Nick is going to follow in the steps of every other boy bander to do the show and be a decent dancer from the jump. I go back to 98 Degrees being the one boy band that didn’t dance, and the fact that many of us seem to agree that Drew likely won his season due to it being a lot less competitive back then, and having Cheryl as a pro – he would not fare so well on a more recent season. I’m also not convinced that Peta is back to being pre-baby Peta in terms of focus, and if her performance last season with Nick (Viall) was any indicator, her head might not be 100% in the game. I’d put Nick at least 5 or 6 spots down – I’m not even fully convinced he’s gonna make the finals. Looks like the oddsmakers are also seriously underestimating Jordan, who aside from having some dance chops, also has a huge advantage in Lindsay – I’d put him tied at the top with Stirling. I’d drop Debbie down to 6th or 7th, and drop Vanessa, Sasha, & Frankie all closer to the bottom – and I’d bring Drew & Nikki up to 4th or 5th. Victoria probably could come up a little – but I think T.O. & Derek are about right.

Heidi: Well, technically, they have Jordan third most likely to win by wussing out and making a three way tie for second and a three way tie for third. Hell, anybody can come up with those kind of odds. 😀 I don’t think Nick wins this season and I agree with Courtney that he doesn’t make the final. I also don’t think that Barbara is the first person out this season. If not for Alan being her pro, I would agree with Debbie’s placement, simply because she is right in line with the DWTS demo…and she might be the only other person who is, besides Drew. No, I do not believe that either Nick or Vanessa qualify. Still a bit too young and a bit too invisible. Still don’t know (or care) who Sasha is, which is a bad sign for her seeing as how I’m on the young end of the demo myself. Right now, before anyone dances, I would rank Jordan and Lindsay at the top, followed by Drew and Nikki, then one of the Lacheys, then Victoria, then the athletes, then the other Lachey, then Barbara, followed by Frankie, Sasha and Debbie, in no particular order. Very possible still that Debbie could be closer to the top or could trade places with Victoria. But who knows? Lindsay and Jordan could be too unknown to the general audience and the top two could be very different – but I still don’t think it will be Nick. We’ll see.

DWTS Season 24: Las Vegas Lays Odds on the Couples Before Week 1

Well, lets see what the odds makers have come up with for this season…and how we feel about those odds. We usually disagree, I think mainly because the people who come up with them are not fans of the show and seem to base betting on their knowledge of the celeb. And right on Bovada Sports book, where these came from, it says that it changes by performance when there is so much more to the show. 🙂  These are the odds to WIN the show, not a ranking although we tend to look at it as a ranking.

Simone Biles          +200
Heather Morris     +500
Bonner Bolton       +700
Normani Kordei    +700
Erika Jayne             +750
Charo                       +800
Nancy Kerrigan    +1000
Rashad Jennings +1200
Nick Viall              +1600
David Ross           +1600
Chris Kattan         +2000
Mr. T                      +2500

Oddly enough, they could have the top 4 right! They *could*…I still think that either Normani or Heather are going to go out at the quarterfinals or earlier. I don’t think the show can sustain that many ringers and there are three in their top 3. On top of the numerous ringers, there is a ton of personality in this cast, both male and female. And absent some kickass choreo, personality can go a long way.

That said…not as far as Charo, I don’t think. 🙂 They think she’s gonna take both Rashad and Nancy?? That strikes me as wrong, but I guess we’ll have to see. I usually have a much better feel for how it’s going to shake out after week 2.

Vogue: Gosh, I don’t think I’ve ever been so conflicted about what the odds should be? For what we have in dance ability this season (whether they are young or older), they make up with the entertainment or charisma factor. I think the odds makers have it right with the first two. Then again, I’m getting a Hope Solo vibe with Heather in that she won’t be very well liked. I think I’d put Normani at #2 or #3. I think Rashan could make it to the top 3 or 4 too. I think they have the last four right except for Mr. T. I can’t imagine him being ousted first. I also wonder on Charo? Like Miss Heidi, I would think Nancy and Rashad would beat her for sure. I can’t wait to read everyone’s thoughts on this. *so conflicted*

Courtney: Pump those brakes, Vegas – no way I see Charo doing that well. I’d put her maybe above Chris Kattan, and I’d actually move Mr. T up a few spots – I think he’ll be a nostalgic favorite, even if he isn’t a fantastic dancer. I’d switch Heather & Normani – seems to be a lot of skepticism from fans about Heather being a professional dancer already, and if these annoying Harmonizers that seem to be coming out of the woodwork are any indicator, Normani may have some staying power; and I’d bring Rashad up – from what I’ve seen so far, he’s actually showing some promise. Erika should probably drop down a bit; the one I’m left not really sure how to feel about is Nancy – I think she has the talent to do well, but I’m very skeptical about how her pro is going to harness it…and whether they’re going to get along well.

DWTS Season 22 Week 2 Las Vegas Odds – Let us know what you think?

Sports Bavada didn’t post Las Vegas Odds for Dancing With The Stars Season 22 Week 2, but, Bookmake.eu.com posted their odds again.

ANTONIO BROWN 355
PAIGE VANZANT 373
JODIE SWEETIN 379
GINGER ZEE 508
NYLE DIMARCO 636
VON MILLER 781
MISCHA BARTON 891
WANYA MORRIS 943
KIM FIELDS 2049
DOUG FLUTIE 2830
GERALDO RIVERA 3967
MARLA MAPLES 4030

Below are last weeks odds:

JODIE SWEETIN 410
ANTONIO BROWN 550
PAIGE VANZANT 560
GINGER ZEE 570
NYLE DIMARCO 645
WANYA MORRIS 715
MISCHA BARTON 834
VON MILLER 889
KIM FIELDS 1230
DOUG FLUTIE 1600
MARLA MAPLES 2700
GERALDO RIVERA 3962

Vogue: I’m really disagreeing with the odds makers at BM this week. Why is Marla last? I fear it’s because some can’t get past that she was once Donald Trump’s wife which is sad. I was also surprised to see Kim so low as well. She and Sasha are so fun and they came out like firecrackers for their first dance. I would think both of them would be in the middle of the pack somewhere. Also, Jodi Sweetin is too high and Wanya is wayyyyy too low. Nyle should be more at the top as well. And what about Mischa? She should be at the bottom. What a goofy week in odds. Be sure to tell us what you think in comments. Heidi and Court what do you think?

Courtney: Whatever the oddsmakers are on – I want some 😛 It’s almost as if they’re a week behind – as if these odds are based more on the preseason hype we heard and not what we actually saw on Monday night.  Heck, it almost seems like they were lurking here – several of us were talking about both Marla & Geraldo as early outs, and how we thought Antonio was a lock for the finale.  Then Monday happened, and things kinda got shaken up – right now, rather than seeing a clear front-runner or a clear order, I’m more seeing tiers of skill/fanbase. I would argue that, based on Monday’s show, Wanya & Nyle should be about neck-and-neck for the top spot.  The next tier would be some combination of Ginger, Antonio, & Von – not sure what order I’d really put them in; right below them should be Paige, Jodie, & Kim (not necessarily in that order); Marla & Doug slightly below that (again, not sure who I’d put higher); and then Mischa & Geraldo in the basement.  I fully expect this could change come Monday, as I think Antonio could potentially surge, Ginger will likely get lavished with praise again, and Wanya and/or Nyle could get nitpicked a bit. Part of me kinda hopes it’s Mischa going home instead of Geraldo, because I’m getting the impression more and more that the former is not having much fun and at least the latter seems to be enjoying himself.

Heidi: As per usual, they have things all screwed up. It does make me wonder though…are they getting their odds based on actual betting? Because, when you look at their odds that way it puts a new spin on things.  Only not really, because you have the Steeler and the MMA girl at the top and there’s tons of sports betting all the time so to people who gamble, those two are really familiar.  🙂 It does make the rest of their lineup interesting. Sort of. You would think, though, that they would TRY to inject some reality into their odds because they’re likely going to get hosed on finale night unless Antonio does pull out a win – and that is NOT a sure thing anymore. I have to agree with Courtney’s tiers – ole Antonio has some serious competition from Wanya and Nyle and some of the other competitors are no slouches either. We’ll know more after this week, since they have far less time to prepare – but if  Sharna and Val don’t step up the choreo, they could find themselves seriously outclassed. And, therefore, on the losing end of this season.

KIM FIELDS 1230
DOUG FLUTIE 1600
MARLA MAPLES 2700
GERALDO RIVERA 3962

So, after taking a look from two different sources, do the odds makers have it right or wrong? Which set do you agree with more? Let us know in comments while the Angels weigh in below.

Vogue: Wow, it’s always interesting to read the first set of odds every season for Dancing With The Stars. If I had to choose which set of odds I agreed with more, I think it would be from the second source as I can’t imagine Ginger Zee or Jodi Sweetin taking last and getting eliminated so soon like the first set of odds say. It’s interesting too how one source puts Geraldo so high and the other so low. I’m also shocked one source has Wanya Morris winning and the other source has Jodi Sweetin winning. Well, one thing is sure, this season is a mix up of characters and talent and hard to predict. Next Monday night can’t come soon enough.

Courtney: Hmmmm…are the folks at Sports Bovada high or just not very well-informed? 🙂 As much as I’d like to see Wanya win this, I daresay he’s gonna have an uphill battle against the likes of Antonio, Jodie, Ginger, & Paige.  I’d say the second set of odds is mostly right, although I’d probably switch Doug & Mischa and Antonio & Jodie.  Unfortunately, I don’t have a whole lot more to add – just eager to see how things shake out after night 1, when we have a clearer picture of how good everyone is (or isn’t).

Heidi: They’re high, Courtney. 🙂 Seriously, they have two women with dance experience at the very bottom? In what universe does Jodie get beaten out by the likes of Geraldo (to name just one). No clue what’s going on there except I think they have every single placement wrong – I don’t see one that is likely to be correct except maybe Paige. They clearly did no research at all. The second group, on the other hand, has done a much more realistic job – I would put Geraldo at the bottom. I think their top four has a reasonable chance, except for Paige who’s early-ish elimination seems somewhat likely. I also don’t think Jodie should be in the number 1 spot, but then none of the odds makers ever seem to take into account the pro that’s dancing with the Celeb – to their detriment.

Dancing with the Stars Season 21 – Who’s the Odds On Favorite in Week 7?

Okay, so here are the odds from Wynn Las Vegas:

Odds Week 7

This is interesting. Most of the odds makers in the past have been basing their odds solely on the judges scores. It seems Wynn is putting a bit more thought into it.

That said, I’m not sure I agree with a lot of it. I don’t think Tamar is that far out of the running, and I don’t think Alexa has that much of a shot. I think they have the top two correct, for sure, although I think I would put them closer together.  I think they have Alek in exactly the right spot…and the rest are pretty much a toss up, I think.  I will be very curious to see how it really shakes out.

What do you all think? Close? Or no cigar? 🙂

Las Vegas Odds For Dancing With The Stars Season 21 Week 3 – Do You Agree?

Sports Bavada has posted their new odds for Dancing With The Stars Season 21 Week 3. Take a look below and see if you agree. Let us know in comments. In my opinion, Bindi is too low…and same with Alek. I’d be putting her at first or second…or tied with Nick for first. Everyone else may be about right.

Nick Carter +200 +
Alexa PenaVega +225 +
Carlos PenaVega +700 +
Tamar Braxton +700 +
Alek Skarlatos +700 +
Bindi Irwin +800 +
Hayes Grier +1200 +
Andy Grammer +1600 +
Gary Busey +5000 +
Paula Deen +10000 +

There are also some Odds posted at Broadway World. Bindi is first in their odds. I think I like these odds better, but, I think Paula should be last.

Heidi and Courtney, what do you think?

Courtney: Hmmm…these seem wonky to me. I don’t think Alexa should be nearly that high – I think that Alek, Bindi, Hayes, and even Tamar might have a better shot at the MBT. Truth be told, I’m a little uncertain of just who is voting for Alexa – are there really a ton of Spy Kids fans around? And I would put Bindi at about even odds with Nick – with Alek not far behind.  As I’ve witnessed from the switch-up voting – Alek seems to have surged to the top of a lot of folks’ lists as the “guy to beat” this season.  Also probably helps that he’s just kind of an awesome human being, too 🙂 Surprisingly, I’ve found a lot of folks have yet to be really impressed by Nick – I hear the words “intense” and “hard to connect to” thrown around a lot. Is he perhaps more of a Kendra Wilkinson than an Alfonso Ribeiro? I also think Gary is on his way out – so I’d swap he & Paula in the odds. I think the only one that’s about right on the money is Andy – I see him possibly being an early exit.

Heidi: Twitter noise is notoriously faulty when it comes to predicting winners, don’t forget.  I’m as big a Derek fan as they come and I think I’ve cast five whole twitter votes – and for several different partners. 🙂 Alek will do well as long as his scores hold up, but we haven’t gotten to any fun latin dances yet.  I think that Nick is still the guy to beat with women of a certain age who aren’t broadcasting it on twitter…but I don’t know if that will hold up for long, because I do agree that Alek is gaining ground. Nick needs to get out of his head or he’ll find himself on the outside of the Top 2 looking in. I  very much agree on Alexa – way too high.  Where this is coming from I just don’t know. Carlos too, for that matter. Alexa is behind Bindi, Nick and Tamar in the BW odds and I think THAT is still too high. Both sets of odds also have Hayes too low, I think.  Ultimately, Bindi, Nick and Alek are likely to be at the top in the end, along with Hayes and Tamar. Alexa or Carlos could sneak into the top 5 if Alek’s latin is not good…but I wouldn’t count on it.  I think Andy and Alexa are going to be surprisingly early boots, with Carlos out in 6th place unless he suddenly comes on strong.  That’s my very long way of saying – these odds are a mess and BW is marginally better. Marginally. 🙂 They do kinda make me want to put some money on Bindi, though…
