Two major entertainment awards precursors are this weekend - the Producers Guild Awards and the Screen Actor Guild Awards - and betting markets are presenting incredible opportunities.
In this episode of Lights Camera What’s the Action?, we review our BAFTA betting results and ask the big question: did we turn a profit?
We then expose where sportsbooks have mispriced Sunday’s Actor Awards, breaking down the latest SAG odds, Screen Actor Guild Awards predictions, and the hot selections that could deliver massive payouts.
At the Oscars, we analyse all 15 contenders across the Shorts categories, examine whether the Oscar favourite Sean Penn is vulnerable at the Actor Awards, and reveal our upset SAG prediction for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role.
Plus: what the Marty Supreme BAFTA shutout means for Best Actor betting and Oscars predictions, who we’re backing in Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture at big odds, and how Oscars betting markets - including Best Picture odds are likely to shift after PGA and SAG results.
If you’re serious about Oscars odds, SAG predictions, and finding value across the entertainment awards season, this is essential listening.
