<b>PINNACLESPORTS.COM RELEASES ODDS ON NATHAN’S FAMOUS
FOURTH OF JULY HOT DOG EATING CONTEST</b>
Kobayashi Overwhelming Favorite To Win Sixth Straight Mustard Yellow Belt
WILLEMSTAD, CURACAO (June 30, 2006)—The ultimate contest pitting man
against frankfurter, Nathan’s Famous Fourth of July International Hot Dog
Eating Contest has been a staple on America’s birthday since 1916. With
the “Super Bowl of competitive eating” only days away, <a href="http://www.pinnaclesports.com/?refer=xulticap">Pinnacle Sports</a>
today released odds on the world’s most famous eating contest and lists
reigning five-time champion, Takeru Kobayashi as an overwhelming favorite
to successfully defend his title.
The largest sportsbook on the Internet, <a href="http://www.pinnaclesports.com/?refer=xulticap">Pinnacle Sports</a> has expanded
its sports betting menu into the competitive eating arena by posting
several betting options on the most intense 12 minutes of eating to be
witnessed this year. The greatest eater in history and world record holder
at the Nathan’s event, Takeru Kobayashi has been installed as an
overwhelming favorite at 1/4 odds (i.e., win $1 for every $4 bet) to
capture the Mustard Yellow Championship Belt for the sixth straight year.
<a href="http://www.pinnaclesports.com/?refer=xulticap">Pinnacle Sports</a> believes Joey Chestnut, who devoured 50 hot dogs in
qualifying, will present the biggest challenge to Kobayashi, listing him
with the second best odds to win the contest at 4/1. Sonya Thomas may
appear slight in stature, but proved her bite is bigger than her bark with
a second place finish in 2005 by devouring 37 dogs, and at 13/1 has the
third best odds to win this year’s event. Meanwhile, Chip Simpson who
finished 38 dogs in qualifying, is a 36/1 underdog to win the Nathan’s
contest.
“When people discuss individual dominance in sports they usually mention
Lance Armstrong’s seven Tour de France titles or Tiger Woods’ 10 major
championships, but Kobayashi’s consecutive win streak at Coney Island is
equally impressive,” said Simon Noble of Pinnacle.. “Although
Joey Chestnut is having an amazing year on the competitive eating circuit
and set a new American record with 50 hot dogs, it’s unlikely he’ll be
able to unseat the great Kobayashi. Champions respond under pressure, and
like Jordan and Elway before him, Kobayashi is the most clutch performer
in eating history.”
In addition to calculating odds on who’ll win the contest,
<a href="http://www.pinnaclesports.com/?refer=xulticap">Pinnacle Sports</a> has created several other betting options on the
world’s most prestigious eating competition. Although the oddsmakers favor
the winner consuming at least 50 hot dogs and buns at 5/8 odds, they
believe Kobayashi’s world record of 53 ½ frankfurters will be safe for at
least another year, listing a new standard being set as a 9/4 underdog.
Bettors may also wager on unique over/under lines on the number of hot
dogs the three favorites will eat in this year’s contest. The over/under
line for Kobayashi’s total has been set at 50 hot dogs and buns, while
Chestnut’s total is 45 and Thomas’ has been set at 37.
<a href="http://www.pinnaclesports.com/?refer=xulticap">Pinnacle Sports</a> has also created unique match-ups between eaters
participating in this year’s event. For a complete list of odds, please
