    Luck won the Camp award, should definitely put a little bit on Luck to win.

    The book is probably trying to get more votes on Luck by adding value. I am trying to find a comparison for this situation, and I really can't find one. Even with presidential elections you'd have to wager before the vote has been made, but this is a situation where the vote has already been made and a quarter of the voters have given out who they voted for. I still haven't bet it, but the line is still -950 for RG3 at my book. Its one of those things that just seems too good to be true. Why would any book still take bets on this? It seems like they are giving out free money.

    this reminds me a few a years ago when avatar was the humongous chalk to win best picture (or whatever movie awards it was up for i cant remember)..huge chalk. everyone knew avatar was a big movie that year..then about a week before the awards money came pouring in on 'the hurt locker' and that movie became the chalk

    avatar lost..

    Did about half of the voters reveal what Movie they had voted for before the awards? Because that is what has happened here.
