Elvis Odds On For 1000th Number One-bookies All Shook Up

UK -- (PRESS RELEASE) -- After taking a number of large bets, bookies William Hill have slashed the odds on Elvis having the 1000th No.1 this weekend from Even money to a 1/8 near certainty. On Sunday Elvis racked up his 19th number 1 single and this weeks release of One Night looks almost certain to rack up his 20th No.1 on Sunday. There are a number of other contenders who are in with a sporting chance and Hills make Ciara, a 19 year old R & B act from the States, joint second favourite with the Scissor Sisters at 14/1. The outsiders include The Killers 20/1, Steve Brookstein 25/1 and the Roosters at 33/1"Last week we were offering Even money that Elvis would have the 1000th number one but we had not factored in the fanatical nature of Elvis fans. Judging by the weight of money that we have seen for Elvis it looks like the Elvis juggernaut is definitely on the road. That said, we probably owe Elvis fans a payout as we have a taken a number of bets over the years on Elvis to be found alive which is currently 1000/1." said Hills spokesman Rupert Adams

BetWWTS.com Offers Odds on NHL 2005-06 Season

ST. JOHN'S, Antigua – (PRESS RELEASE) -- With Commissioner Gary
Bettman announcing the cancellation of the 2004-05 NHL season earlier today,
questions now arise whether the league and player's union will reach an
agreement to save next season. Just minutes after the announcement was made,
oddsmakers at BetWWTS.com calculated the odds on what would happen to the
2005-06 NHL season. The only company to offer betting options on the labor
dispute in hockey this season, BetWWTS.com has created odds on the NHL having
a full, partial or no season for the 2005-06 campaign.Now that the season has been called off, BetWWTS.com feels that neither
side will rush back to the bargaining table anytime soon, listing the odds on
the NHL playing only a partial season next year as the favorite at 5/8 odds
(i.e., win $5 for every $8 bet). Although it is likely that negotiations will
result in only a shortened season in 2005-06, there is still a chance that
both sides will come to an agreement in time to hold a full season, which is
listed at 3/2 odds to occur. Whether the NHL and player's association come to
an agreement or not, BetWWTS.com lists the odds of there being no hockey
season again next year as a 4/1 long shot realizing that the owners will at
least bring in replacement players to salvage their league.
