Daniel Day-Lewis is the big favourite at -10000, meaning you will need to bet $100 to win a single dollar.  Ouch!

Lewis is a virtual lock for his role as Lincoln in the film “Lincoln”, which would pay out $27.50 for every $10 bet to win Best Picture. 

Close to 22 percent of those placing bets on the Best Actor nomination were backing Lewis even at the high price.  Hugh Jackson for his role in “Les Miserables” was getting the most action from those seeking some value.  He would pay out $85 for every $10 bet.

The percentage numbers listed below represent action for each nomination.
