Bookmaker Lays Odds on Who Will Be 'Whacked' First
ST. JOHN'S, Antigua, March 4 /PRNewswire/ -- After a 15-month layoff,
television's most popular mob family returns Sunday, when HBO premieres the
fifth season of "The Sopranos". When viewers last saw the mafia's first
family, turmoil hit a high point with Tony and Carmela's separation, Uncle
Junior surviving his RICO trial, Christopher fresh out of rehab and Adriana
acting as an FBI informant. With fans of the mob drama anxiously waiting the
forthcoming season, BetWWTS.com today announced odds on the first Sopranos
character to be "whacked" or pass away during the upcoming season of the show.
A leading offshore gaming company for over 10 years, BetWWTS.com has
listed New York underboss Johnny Sack as the early favorite to be the first
character killed-off during the upcoming season at 3/1 odds (i.e., win $3 for
every $1 bet). Little Carmine, next in line to control the New York family now
that his father has died, is listed as a close second at 7/2 odds. Meanwhile,
Christopher's fiancee turned FBI informant Adriana comes in at 4/1 odds, and
new character Feech La Manna (played by Robert Loggia) is also a candidate for
early termination
"No other successful television program produces the suspense of 'The
Sopranos' where main characters can be killed off at any time and fans
constantly speculate who'll be next," said Simon Noble, CEO of BetWWTS.com.
"With the death of Carmine, control of the New York crew is up for grabs. As a
result, a power struggle between Johnny Sack and Little Carmine will almost
certainly ensue, which is why we made them the favorites. If anyone gets wise
to Adriana's dealings with the Feds, she could easily be the next to 'sleep
with the fishes.' Although he's a new character, it's rumored that Feech will
stir things up after his parole and get on Tony's bad side -- something both
Ralph and Richie Aprile did and both of their fates were quickly sealed."
Other members of "The Sopranos" who have a good chance to be the first to
get "whacked" or pass away during this season include: Uncle Junior, who just
survived the trial of his life, at 7/1; Tony's paroled cousin Tony Blundetto
(played by Steve Buscemi) at 8/1; longtime confidants Paulie Walnuts (8/1) and
Silvio (10/1); and Tony's therapist Dr. Melfi at 10/1. BetWWTS.com has also
created individual odds for the clean and sober Christopher (15/1), newly
married couple Janice and Bobby Bacala (both at 15/1), and Tony's good friend
and restaurant owner Artie Bucco (18/1). Characters that have very little
chance of being killed off first this season are all members of Tony's
immediate family. His son AJ, daughter Meadow and separated wife Carmela all
come in at 30/1 odds while the longest of the long shots to get whacked or
pass away first is Tony Soprano himself, currently listed at 60/1 odds.
Customers may also bet that none of the characters with individual odds
listed will be killed-off during the fifth season at 5/2 odds. For additional
