Novelty Betting Guide

Novelty and Special Betting has become increasingly popular over the last decade with the advent of Reality TV and also TV Talent Shows which are now some of the most viewed shows on TV. With this popularity has come the betting markets alongside these TV shows which have proven to be lucrative for many in recent years.

Novelty Bets

The sort of Novelty Bets that are available for Reality TV shows are headed up by the Series Winner Market which offers odds on who will win the show outright whether it would be Big Brother, X-Factor or Strictly Come Dancing. This is normally the market which attracts the most money no matter the show and it will do through the duration of any series.

Within these shows, each week will see a contestant voted off, evicted by either judges or the public which means that punters will be kept interested throughout a series. There will be a Next Person to Leave Market where Punters will have to bet on which contestant will leave the show next.
