The number of betting markets available to you is not comparable to those in sports such as soccer, tennis, basketball or handball. If you are used to dozens of different bet types from your Wimbledon bets or NBA sports bets, for example, you will have to be satisfied with much less when it comes to entertainment betting. But you never have to lower your expectations when it comes to lacing your bet at 22Bet.
However, as with transfer betting, the motto is small but mighty. Although there are usually only a handful of betting markets for each event, these cover all the important decisions. We will now introduce you to some of the most popular markets.
WHO WILL WIN THE TV SHOW OR AWARD CEREMONY
As you probably already know from sports betting with tips on the winner of leagues or tournaments, special bets also involve predicting the winner of the competition. While you have a choice of five nominees in most categories in Oscar betting, for example, you can choose from over two dozen candidates in the final for your ESC bets. The selection of candidates for the Nobel Peace Prize is even more extensive. As the winner is very difficult to predict, some betting providers have even listed over 50 possible candidates.
WHO WILL BE CHOSEN NEXT?
Before the winners are determined in various TV entertainment bets, the field of participants is first reduced. In most cases, one contestant has to leave the show in each episode of shows such as Let’s Dance. This is usually decided by the audience with their votes. In Let’s Dance, in addition to the audience vote, the jury’s assessment also plays a role. When betting on this market, you should always bear in mind that audience decisions are not always based on performance. Likeability or a large following can tip the scales here.
THE MOST IMPORTANT TV SOCIAL BETS
The jungle camp and Let’s Dance attract millions of viewers to their TV sets every year and provide plenty of material for gossip with their sometimes more and sometimes less prominent participants. Naturally, sports betting providers also want to benefit from such a large target group and offer you an attractive program of entertainment bets.
LET’S DANCE
The celebrity contestants have been swinging across the dance floor with their professional dance partners since 2006. The show is hosted by Daniel Hartwich and Victoria Swarovski and is broadcast on RTL. As a rule, you are spoilt for choice with three betting markets. In addition to the winner and the top 3, you can also place your bet on the celebrity who will be voted out next.
In addition to the judges’ assessments by Joachim Llambi, Motsi Mabuse and Jorge González, the audience vote also plays a role in the decisions. The record winner with three triumphs in the years 2017 to 2019 is Ekaterina Leonova. However, as the Russian dancer will not be taking part in the 13th season in 2020, she will not be able to defend her title.
DSCHUNGELCAMP
Every year at the beginning of January, millions of TV viewers watch the jungle camp every day and speculate about the winner of the reality show. The German version of “Ich bin ein Star – Holt mich hier raus” was first broadcast in 2004. It is based on the British format “I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here!”. In addition to the German version, you can also place your special bets on the American and English versions.
As with Let’s Dance, the program usually includes betting markets on the winner, the top three contestants and the next runner-up. The king of the jungle not only receives the symbolic crown, but can also look forward to a prize money of €100,000.
