Crazy Betting Rumor From "Frat Kid at Penn State" Causes "The Favourite" Director's Odds To Drop From 45-1 to Off The Board

Yorgos Lanthimos, the director of The Favourites, was a 45-1 longshot to win the Best Director award at the Oscars, until rumors resulted in bettors placing a flurry of wagers.
FanDuel dropped his odds all the way to 5-1 before taking the prop off the board due to the lopsided action.

On Sunday, there was serious movement on Best Director odds: Yorgos Lanthimos, the director of The Favourites, rose from as high as 45-1 at FanDuel all the way down to 5-1.

FanDuel, which has an app available in New Jersey and runs the sportsbook at the Meadowlands, tweeted that Best Director was taken off the board “w/a flurry of similar bets coming in amongst many books.”

Lanthimos’ rise seems to be at least partly connected to rumors from college campuses. One person reached out to The Action Network, saying they heard the rumor emanated from “a frat kid” at Penn State, whose father has major Hollywood connections.

Another gambler told The Action Network that they heard the Lanthimos rumor started at the University of Richmond, where a student received word from his aunt, who is on the Academy.

I don’t know #### about movies, but I love a good gambling leak like the one we have here. Yorgos Lanthimos was 45-1 to win best director. Then all of a sudden today a rumor from a “Penn State frat kid” caught fire and caused Yorgos’ odds to drop all the way down to 5-1. Now they’re off the board! HOLY ####!!! Where there’s smoke there’s fire. I’m all in on this story, and I have every reason to believe it’s legit and this guy is the winner. The internet has literally never lied once…ever.

So obviously none of us can cash in on this because it’s off all websites. Well, I’ve got a theory I cooked up with a buddy. If the voters love this director so much and he’s going to win, that must mean they love the movie The Favourites. That means we’re cooking with another category with someone from this movie. I’ve got my bullseye on Rachel Weisz for best supporting actress at +350. This was up to +650 at one point today, and suddenly it’s free falling. Let’s take a chance and beat the system. It’s our time to win.

These stories are always interesting because somewhere the result is already known.

 
Booty woman is excited at the fact we could win five G's on the Oscars - She coming over a little earlier tonight than normal. I got her some Colombian blue jeans as a gift. And some locally grown Walker's Texas Honey as a gift. From their farm in Rogers, Texas. You may not know this but they say if you eat locally grown honey you don't have to wear a condom.

 
Looks like all the yorgos bets at sportsbook.ag have been cancelled, glad I didn't jump thru hoops to get funded there.

FAKE

 
I swear to god I knew the Spurs would lose. They've alternated wins and losses in NY against the Knicks the last seven years. I had Spurs as the road fave in the last leg of a ML parlay back in 2014 and promised myself I'd fade them in that spot if I ever got another chance.

 
NBA teams 21-4-1 O/U L26 hosting the Spurs (13-0 O/U when that team is averaging more than 111 ppg; 14-1 O/U outside central time zone). Also faves 15-1 O/U L16 seeking revenge from the Spurs.

Nets o117½
Nets 1H o57 -110
Spurs/Nets o233½ -103

 
Pucks:

Devils/Habs FP O1.5 (-190)

Preds/Oil FP U1.5 (-130) 2U

Avs/Panthers FP U1.5 (+110)

Iowa +150
Iowa 1H o32½ +114
Iowa/Ohio State o141 -101

 
I tell you what man that Wiccan nurse is very orgasmic. She did it three times last night. She likes being on top. I could barely see her face looking up at her in the dark, but it's a shadowy image that's been tattooed into my brain that I can't stop thinking about. The other good thing about her is that she can read - unlike Booty Woman, whom I consider a pretentious illiterate with a short attention span as she always turns up her nose any time I want to watch a subtitled foreign film. And speaking of attention spans, boy am I ready for this Big Ten action to start. I'm going to see if I can wager a +475 on the Live Betting Extra total when the game tips off.

 
Buffalo 2H -9
