Last year I came out a tiny bit up after betting on a couple of the awards ceremonies, but this year I'm trying not to play it so safe by betting on a couple of outsiders that may not be the favourites but still have good chances of winning.
I placed my bets at William Hill this year on the following nominees in the following categories:
Julianne
Moore - Maps To The Stars @ 12/1 Best Actress - Musical/Comedy
Stake: £1.00 Potential Returns:
£13.00
Amy Adams
- Big Eyes @ 10/11 Best
Actress - Musical/Comedy
Stake: £1.00 Potential Returns:
£1.91
Ralph
Fiennes - The Grand Budapest Hotel @ 9/1 Best Actor - Musical/Comedy
Stake: £1.00 Potential Returns:
£10.00
Alejandro
Gonzalez Inarritu - Birdman @ 11/2 Best Director
Stake: £1.00 Potential Returns:
£6.50
Eddie
Redmayne - The Theory of Everything @ 1/3 Best Actor - Motion Picture Drama
Stake: £2.00 Potential Returns:
£2.67

1/6 Best
Motion Picture - Drama
Stake: £2.00 Potential Returns:
£2.33
Felicity
Jones - The Theory of Everything @ 16/1 Best Actress - Motion Picture Drama
Stake: £1.00 Potential Returns:
£17.00Highlighted are my winners.
TOTAL STAKE £9.00
TOTAL POTENTIAL WINNINGS (I can dream): £53.41
ACTUAL TOTAL: £6.91
What do you reckon are my chances? Will I get my £9 back at least or will I lose it all?
