Eurovision
Even if you are not watching it, you should take a look at Eurovision this evening.
I’ve done well backing outsiders that shorten during the contest in the past and early voting patterns can often give you the ability to dutch a range of long odds into shorter prices. Don’t leave it too late to get out though, as winners can become apparent very quickly and will shorten fast.
My biggest ever success came from backing Lordi a few years ago to win. Finland was embarrassed by the entry till they realised the performance struck a chord with the voters and their price shot in from 65’s. Jedward appear to be the following a similar path this year, but lets not pre-judge anything. Azerbaijan appear to be attracting a lot of support as well. Eearly voting patterns are usually the key. I don’t think England will win because we have tried too hard. I doubt we will get votes for that, probably the opposite.
I’ll skip the singing and tune in for the voting. Hopefully I will get more then ‘null point’ in profit terms.
