Betting on the 2006 Academy Awards - Oscars

Betting on the 2006 Oscars? You won’t be the only one. Hundreds of thousands of people will be betting on this year’s Oscars. And there is some terrific value to be had as well.

In addition to the more popular categories, there is also betting available on some of the other nominations such as special effects.

Watching the Oscars is occasionally a yawner, but betting on the 2006 Oscars is sure to keep one wide awake and at the edge of their seat.

Records should be set this year as more and more online sportsbooks offer betting on the 2006 Academy Awards.
