I'm putting $500 on David Archuleta at +215
David Cook is a one trick pony. Sure, he's good but the little guy has a better range. Cook has been mailing it in lately and Archuleta brings it every night. I think the teenyboppers who actually vote are going to favor Archuleta. And at +215 I see a whole lot of value there. I believe he was also the favorite when this whole thing started. Hoping for a David Cook meltdown...

5* David Archuleta +215

Good Luck!!

Archuleta NAILED it!!! - He blew the rocker away.
If Archuleta doesn't win, then this competition is fixed worse than the NBA.

Archuleta still better than a 2 to 1 dog at Matchbook. I can't see this bet losing after last night's performance.
This could be considered a

My only concern is that it is dated June 5 8:00pm -- hmmm

Bob-you mean that TODAY you can put in a play on David Archuleta at better than two to one odds ??? If I could I would play a substantial amount of $$$ on this one.

Yes, lines are up at Matchbook and a few others at better than +210.
Concerns me a bit as I really can't see Cook winning this thing; maybe the fix is in.

CRIS, 5dimes.com/tracking/Affiliate.asp?AffID=AF000189&mediaTypeID=220&AffUrlID=229" target="_blank">5dimes, Bookmaker.com/?cmpid=4437" target="_blank">Bookmaker. - Lines still up and look too good to be true.

+225 at Bookmaker with a $500 cap. May have to double this one up.
