Zijn de stemmen al uitgedeeld van de vakjury?

Dat gebeurt vanavond.

Andrew’s Predictions
It is a very tough Semi Final to call only six songs will fail so instead of predicting the qualifiers I am going to predict the non qualifiers. Definitely out for me are San Marino, Latvia and Iceland. Then I will call Albania to be out. That leaves 2 non qualifiers. Very tough call as its between Montenegro, Belgium , Netherlands and Portugal. Sticking my neck out here

I am calling Portugal and Netherlands to just miss out.

Ik dacht dat vorig jaar ook de 'echte' opnamen van de dress rehearsals te zien waren, en niet alleen die crappy met-een-telefoon-in-de-zaal-opnamen.

Valt er vanavond nog iets te beleven?

The Netherlands’ ‘Calm After the Storm’ exudes quality and remains utter jury-bait. Waylon and Ilse know what they’re doing in every camera shot.

Ilse and Waylon looking ready for tonight as they have done since rehearsal 1. The way this is staged is a textbook lesson in how to stage a slow song well.

Waylon boeit de punten niet zoveel hoorde ik net op de radio.

Nou mooi.

Toch nog maar eens iets positiefs:

Kan iemand mij in het kort uitleggen hoe ik de odds moet lezen?

Zo: http://sofabet.com/understanding-betting-odds/

Sometimes, like on Betfair, you see decimal odds. These are even easier to understand. The same odds would be expressed as follows:

1.5 Geraldine McQueen
4.0 R Wayne
8.0 2Up2Down

Here the numbers represent the total youd get back for each pound bet: £1.50 for Geraldine McQueen, £4 for R Wayne, £8 for 2Up2Down.

That is, of course, if your bet wins. If it loses, you lose your £1.

Now, what do these odds imply in terms of an acts chances of winning? They mean that bookmakers and punters collectively think that Geraldine McQueen has a 66.67% chance of winning, that R Wayne has a 25% chance of winning, and that 2Up2Down have a 12.5% chance of winning.

Thanks!

MAAR wat bedoelen ze met back & lay in de link die ik net postte? En zoals het overzicht daar staat, zou Nederland toch een aantal plaatsen hoger moeten staan?

dat back en lay snap ik ook niet.

Meer specifiek: tussen België en Hongarije?!

Zouden dat misschien de gemiddelden zijn van alle verschillende bettingkantoren?

Backing and laying

On Betfair you can back and lay.

To 'back' a selection means you think it will happen, like you would do with a traditional bookie.

Or you can take the opposing viewpoint and 'lay' if you think your selection will not happen (i.e. won't win).

Every fixed-odds bet, whether it's with your local high street bookie, a betting exchange or even two mates in a pub, requires a backer and a layer, you've probably just never thought of it that way.

Imagine two guys betting a pint on the Merseyside derby - one cheering Everton, one cheering Liverpool. The Everton supporter is automatically opposing, or laying, Liverpool if he decides to go with his heart. Likewise the Liverpool fan backs his team for a pint, but is laying Everton in the same process.

Lay betting is the other half of the deal from a back bet. Both are bets but opposing views. Without one, you can't have the other - it's like trying to sell your house. Until someone is prepared to buy it, then you don't have a sale.

Helder! Maar dan klopt de volgorde toch nog steeds niet?

Is er al wat te zien ergens ? Hole?
