The odds for the 2010 Oscars are up and, in some cases based on the huge favorites in certain categories, a winner has already been determined by the online gambling websites. Note that Vegas does not offer betting on the Oscars.
Sports Interaction.com featured the following odds for the 2010 Oscars:
2010 Oscars - Best Picture - Some great value here as the competition between The Hurt Locker and Avatar means both have near even odds. Should another film win (and the Oscar voting format for "Best Picture" makes this a possibility), the payouts will be astronomical.
The Hurt Locker -125
Avatar -105
Inglorious Basterds +1000
Up In The Air +3300
Precious +4000
Up +4000
The Blind Side +5000
An Education +10000
District 9 +10000
A Serious Man +10000
2010 Oscars - Best Actor
Jeff Bridges -714 Bridges is the huge favorite and requires a $71.40 bet to win $10 (the $71.40 is refunded in the event of Bridges winning).
George Clooney +600
Colin Firth +1000
Jeremey Renner +1400
Morgan Freeman +2000
Odds for the 2010 Oscars - Best Actress
Sandra Bullock -278 She is not that big a favorite and Meryl Streep certainly has value paying $20 for every $10 bet should she win.
Meryl Streep +200
Carey Mulligan +1000
Gabourey Sidibe +1400
Helen Mirren +3300
Odds for the 2010 Oscars - Best Director
Kathryn Bigelow -455
James Cameron +275 The payout would be $27.50 for every $10 bet on Cameron at Sports Interaction.
Quentin Tarantino +2000
Jason Reitman +3300
Lee Daniels +5000
2010 Oscars - Best Supporting Actor
Christopher Waltz -3333 The biggest favorite out there. Don't even bother betting on this category. He's a virtual "lock" but the price is outrageous.
Woody Harrelson +1100
Stanley Tucci +1200
Christopher Plummer +2500
Matt Damon +2800
2010 Oscars - Best Supporting Actress
MoNique -2000 Another out of reach favorite in terms of the price.
