Make Your Oscar Party by Betting on the Winners
I am a huge fan of every opportunity to gamble for small amounts of money. I am not going to spend hundreds of dollars on a weekly poker tournament, but I bet $ 5. I can beat you on a board game, or agree to clean up after dinner if my Chopped choices don’t make it to the end. show.
So I’m a big fan of Oscar betting too.
If you have an Oscar party at home or are watching with friends, the betting sheet can be an easy way to entertain yourself.
Betting on your party
There are several different places where you can download them, but what I like the most is FanDuel . The site has taken into account the winning odds of certain films, so for example, if you choose a long shot like Yorgos Lanthimos as the best director, you will get 2,800 points, while choosing Spike Lee will only bring you 750.
The official game “Oscar”
This ceremony of “Oscar” will be held in the framework of the official games “ Oscar “ . With it, you can earn 10 points for each correct forecast and 1 point for each survey. The person with the most points at the end of the show will receive $ 50,000 (or more likely, $ 50,000).
Tally
My friends and I also used Tally for Super Bowl predictions. The app offers a prize of $ 50,000 to the one who makes the most accurate predictions in the app. This prize increases to $ 100,000 if 15,000 people decide to play.
There is also a (different) Oscar game in the app where you can place bets on everything except the real awards. Questions include how long the broadcast will last, whether anyone will drop anything during the show, and how many times Donald Trump is mentioned during the broadcast.
If you are watching with friends, you can create a “Party” in the app so you can track your progress against friends and also compete against the big world.
