Gambling911.com has your Oscar picks, or should we say Oscar pick since there is only one “sure bet” with decent value.
And that pick is on “12 Years a Slave”.
Unlike most categories, the Best Picture Oscar has decent pricing for the favorite – that being “12 Years a Slave” primarily due to “Gravity” having pull as a potential sleeper.
There is indeed value at Bookmaker, which had “12 Years a Slave” priced at -331, requiring a mere $33 to win $10 (the $33 is refunded assuming a win and the profit comes out to $10).
Most of the Oscar 2014 categories are considered “locks” but are priced too high to place a bet.
“12 Years a Slave” is the closest thing to a “lock” without having to risk a whole lot of money.
When it comes to the most competitive category, that belongs to Best Supporting Actress but this one, in our opinion, is too close to call. Lupita Nyongo and Jennifer Lawrence are bordering on EVEN odds with Nyongo a slight favorite to win.
