This is a really CRAP site - how can you go on accepting 'bets' after the event?

AND - how can you adjust the odds away from what I 'bet' at?

CRAP!

@locris - I'm not sure I understand. As far as I can tell, this question suspended after the performance show but before the results show. So we allowed people to make bets (or predictions) based on what they thought of the performances and who they thought would go home. Let me know if the time wasn't correct, I don't live in the UK, so I'm just working off TV schedules I looked up on the internet...

In regards to the odds, they will continue to change based on what other people are predicting... its not a static bookie's odds, they will continually fluctuate as 'money' comes in and out of the market. Put 100$ on Diana to leave? Then the probability of Diana leaving goes up and the next 100$ you put in, you won't get as good odds. I hope that makes sense? Sometimes it can seem confusing. Looks like you still got a pretty great payday. Congrads on that!
