 |  Online casinos offer newer, stranger odds
15 Aug 2005
It seems the odd odds coming from Bodog never end. Fresh from the odds offerings on NFL curses stemming from video game cover cameos and odds offerings on who will be the next Major League Baseball player to get suspended for failing a performance-enhancing drug test and when that suspension will happen and how long it will be, the Bodog online casinos and sports book site has now posted odds on what new name the holder of the current moniker “P.Diddy” will choose. The current favorite, at 3/2, is “Sean John” which incidentally is the name of Sean “P.Diddy” Combs’ popular clothing line.
“The significant increase of pop culture wagers placed at Bodog simply reflects the popularity of wagering on the most talked about entertainment events," says Calvin Ayre, Founder and CEO of Bodog. He adds, "We are the online casinos industry's driving force behind these types of online casinos and online sports book wagers.”
The potential new names that follow “Sean John” in popularity include the uninspiring “Sean Combs”, his actual name, at 2/1, with “Sean John Combs” at a respectable 3/1. Other, less likely names include “Sean Daddy Combs” at 10/1, “Snuff Daddy” at 50/1, “Papa Combs” at 100/1 and the extremely unlikely and in fact quite in bad taste “J-Lo Combs” at 200/1.
For those who are not necessarily interested in Sean Combs moniker odds, Bodog also is offering online casinos odds on what country will next have the honor of Angelina Jolie adopting a child from among their citizenry. Russia is currently the favorite in that category at the online casinos site Bodog at 3/2, with Uganda following at 2/1 and Ethiopia and Cambodia along with Kenya tied at 3/1. For those not necessarily interested in Hollywood star adoptions, they can get their Michael “Wacko Jacko” Jackson online casinos odds fix by looking up the odds on whether or not the King of Pop will take up permanent resident in Germany – but anti-Jacksonites, don’t get your hopes up as the odds at the online casinos site Bodog currently stand at -125. That’s negative 125.
