American Idol Betting Heats Up As Two Are Sent Home

American Idol moved from nine down to seven on Wednesday night as Katie Stevens and Andrew Garcia were booted off the show.

In a way, Andrews departure was a little bit surprising. After Idol picked their top 24, bookmakers in Vegas had Garcia a clear favorite to win it all. However, as the weeks wore on the only thing clear was; he had to go.

Katie was given the axe even though she seemed to be getting better and better each week, but it was not a total shocker to see her leave.

Now that we are down to the “Lucky Seven,” Crystal Bowersox is still clear the favorite of the bunch with Lee Dewyze a distance second.

If Crystal doesn’t win this thing I will be shocked. Bookmakers are saying her odds are sitting at about 4/5.

The biggest long-shot at this point has to be Tim Urban. I really don’t know why he is still around. Apparently, he is more popular than talented. He is sitting at about a 40 or 50 to 1 shot.
