Boris Johnson - Mayor of London - 12pts - 7/4


The latest poll for Mayor Of London has the 2 leading candidates within 1% of each other. I believe that I am therefore effectively getting 7/4 on the toss of a coin. 12pts at Ladbrokes therefore seems a reasonable bet....

Hey, Just stumbled on your blog. I like some of the bets you'll be having this year. Especially Britney's - it'd be interesting to know what odds you'll get on her still being alive in 2008 never mind married!

Anyways, good luck with them and feel free to link to my blog over at http://selectabet.wordpress.com and I'll give you a link back.

All the best, sb

Is now possible to lay Johnson on betfair, to go neutral on other candidates and have a free bet for 15.6pts profit (current profit if he wins is 21pts).

Do you advise this please?

Cheers,
Jason.

I think that pices are now about right... I'm not going to layoff, but if you are risk averse, I'd not put anyone off doing that.
