Chris Sligh Says "Good Bye", American Idol Bookie About to Fry

For the regular Gambling911.com reader, our own Jenny Woo predicted a potential windfall with the likes of Chris Sligh, listed with +800 odds and an $800 payout for every $100 bet.

This evening, our friends (they might think otherwise) at Bookmaker.com (see website here) are now suffering from withdrawal symptoms as hundreds - perhaps thousands - of Gambling911.com American Idol bettors make out like bandits wagering on Chris Sligh's fate.

"Bookmaker.com failed to heed our warning and now they must pay the piper," bellowed Gambling911.com's Payton O'Brien. 

As the oldest established offshore bookmaker catering to the US market, Bookmaker.com can afford a few more American Idol bashings. 

"Payouts are like clockwork so the good news is that there will be many American Idol fans with big smiles on their faces over the next few days," O'Brien added.

Forget March Madness and the Final Four.  The best bet these days is on American Idol where for three consecutive weeks, big underdogs have translated into even bigger paydays for American Idol bettors. 

Skip from Arkansas writes:

"Last week I won big at Bookmaker.com with $300 on Stephanie Edwards to be eliminated.  You folks are like sooth saviors.  Thank you.  Now I can buy that pickup truck I always wanted."

What lesson can be learned here?

American Idol bettors and bookmakers alike should listen to Jenny Woo  Of course it helps that she is not hard on the eyes either.
