Okay, a few months back, Vegas Betting looked at the Berlin Film Festival. Now, we shift from the big screen to the smaller screen in your living room. for the 2024 Amazing Race Best Bets. Bovada Vegas online sportsbook give us some last-minute odds for this event. With only four teams left, the time is now to get in on the action. Now, keep in mind, the season finale is Wednesday night.
2024 Amazing Race Numbers | |||
---|---|---|---|
Ricky Rotandi & Cesar Aldrete | -200 | -250 | -200 |
Juan Villa & Shane Bilek | EVEN | +125 | EVEN |
Rod & Leticia Gardner | +450 | +475 | +500 |
Amber Craven & Vinny Cagungun | +700 | +650 | +600 |
The 2024 Amazing Race Best Bets looks at the duo of Ricky Rotandi and Cesar Aldrete. One of the strongest teams from the start of Season 36 has only kept their momentum rolling. The duo from New York City started in second place and have been in one of the top two spots throughout the season. Now, their biggest strengths have been the ability to stay near the front while excelling on legs three and seven.
Yes, it has not been all easy for the duo. Consider that mega leg in Cordoba, Argentina where the pair dropped from first to second. Some believe they might have fallen further if not for a bit of good fortune. Again, they were not in danger of being eliminated. The younger couple are both in their early 30’s. Fewer challenges have phased them compared to the other final pairings.
So, there truly is one favorite for The Amazing Race. Honestly, it becomes harder and harder to stray away from this pair. Again, being in first after six episodes is impressive. Though, this does not guarantee victory, final episodes of the show tend to gear towards “The Longest Minute Of Your Life.” Leg 11 ends the season in Philadelphia. Yes, that further helps this power couple who live up the turnpike as previous mentioned.
The only problem is the events in the finale. Now, early leaks suggest a few twists in the making. However, this couple has been so strong throughout. Anything can happen. Do not ask Angie and Danny about that illegal wrong turn that caught everyone guard. That caused them to be eliminated as they awaited a substitute crew. Barring something like that, expect the couple from New York to celebrate with some Philadelphia Freedom.
So, the Gardner’s still remain one to watch as far as the pairs. Honestly, there are three favorites in theory. 2024 Amazing Race Best Bets examine this longer shot. VegasBetting grew attached to the couple and not because Rod Gardner is a former NFL wide receiver. He did have one 1000 yard season in Washington before injuries caused him to retire.
With bets focusing more and more on someone lower in the standings, the married couple still may be worth a flier here. Getting +500 at BetUS may dangle the carrot enough to toss a few dollars on the Gardner’s who jumped from 5th to 2nd after Leg 9. Remember, the double leg (10 and 11). Leg 10 airs first followed by the finale in the United States. Three hours of exhilarating television await.
So, again do not underestimate the oldest participants left in the competition. Rod Gardner may be 46 but he has shown his mettle in crucial stages of the Race. Leticia is the perfect complement to her husband but has displayed a grace and quiet power as well. Note how well the couple performed in the first two legs, the tail end of the 6a-6b leg and then leg 8.
Simply, numbers should not budge much over the next several days. Keep an eye on where and when the books may close on betting. That is the one essential element. Therefore, the longer shot here may have a better chance of winning than most expect. Taking a shot here is not a bad idea.
Okay, how about those military pilots in the 2024 Amazing Race Best Bets. The second choice in the odds stand third currently in the standings before Legs 10 and 11. Do they have time to move up two spots? Sure, they do. Unfortunately, their number carries some considerable concern. They truly are a coin flip. Could they be eliminated before they end Season 36 in the United States?
Now, their series of mistakes in the seventh leg likely should have eliminated them. A little luck goes into some of the finalists in these types of reality shows. We have seen comebacks before. Books and bettors banking on this have buoyed the pair to EVEN at BetUS and Bovada. However, BetOnline stepped out a bit at +125.
Then again the young military pilots showed their bounce back in legs 5 and 6. Going from sixth to first was quite an accomplishment. Their navigational skills may be the best out of who is left. Only their exuberance might prevent them from claiming the $1,000,000 grand prize.
For the 2024 Amazing Race Best Bets, picking Juan Villa and Shane Bilek may not be throwing away your money after all. Military might could be enough.
