Jennifer Hudson’s Odds Slashed To Win Voice UK After Avalanche of Bets

There has been a massive gamble on Jennifer Hudson to be the Voice UK’s winning coach this season following the first of the battle rounds at the weekend.

J-Hud currently has the top two singers in the Outright betting, Nicole Dennis, who is the 5/2 favourite, and Moya, who is a close 4/1 second favourite. Having stolen one act and seeing one sent packing, punters evidently think Jennifer is building an unbeatable squad.

We were forced to suspend betting on the winning coach market on Monday after an avalanche of bets saw Jennifer’s odds crash from 6/4 and her liability soar.

As the dust settled on Tuesday, Ireland’s largest independent bookmaker re-opened the market but J-Hud is now odds-on at 8/13.

Will I Am is next in the winning coach market but at 9/2 he is no competition for Jennifer and will need to make some solid decisions in the battle stages if he is to even cause her to break sweat for the title. Both Olly and Tom Jones are tied in third at 11/2 apiece.
