Eurovision Song Contest 2009 Update - Germany - 1pt E/W - 300/1

Last month, I had the following bets (the current new best prices are in brackets):

Ukraine - 50/1 (28/1)
Russia - 66/1 (50/1)
Serbia - 250/1 (100/1)

However, as stated in my post, there is no real way to tell how the 50% jury vote will influence the result. I've therefore had a new bet which may payoff if the jury vote becomes unexpectedly significant. I've backed Germany at 300/1 with Boylesports / Stan James (a 'cheeky' 1pt E/W). They have both cut this price, but 200/1 is still available at BlueSq.

After the disaster of 'No Angels' last year, they German public have selected a poor man's Ricky Martin called Alex Swings.

However, he may have more chance than you would expect by the fact that he has persuaded Dita von Teese to perform with him.

2 hours later and Germany betting is suspended in a number of places. Best I can see is 100/1 now!
