Survivor Australia bettings odds are suggesting that one of the remaining ‘Spice Girls’ will be the winner and take home the $500,000 prize money.

Last night’s episode saw fan favourite Simon Mee be evicted from the game and sent to the jury house. The move was orchestrated by ‘King George’, who George believes has three pawns in the game; Liz, Matt and Gerry. The three Survivor players appear to have consistently done George’s dirty work and voted with him, based on his plans.

However, betting odds are indicated that Liz, of the original Villains tribe, will be crowned sole survivor.

Popular betting site Sportsbet has listed odds for each of the remaining contestants on the show. The odds are broken down by dollar amount, and a higher amount means that the odds are less likely. For example, if one contestant had a $2 return and another contestant had a $10 return, the former has better odds of winning.

The website has Liz Parnov with the lowest return of $1.30, meaning people have bet the most amount of money on her to win. In second place is Matt Sharp, who has only recently been getting screen time, at $4.50. Former Survivor runner up ‘King George’  sits at $10.00 while Gerry is in fourth place with a return of $11.00. Meanwhile, Nine Twine is considered least likely to win, with a return of $13.00.

Sportsbet posts commonly create categories for popular Australian reality shows, and let people place bets about who they think will win. In the past, the contestants who have better odds have often ended up winning the show.

While the past has suggested that low dollar values are linked to a high chance that the participant will win, it’s important to note that insider trading is strictly banned on the platform and the connection could be purely coincidental.
