‘Survivor: Ghost Island’ Episode Twelve Betting Odds

–This is the 36th season for CBS’s reality show.

–’Survivor’ was one of the early pioneers of the reality TV genre.

–’Survivor: Ghost Island’ Episode 12 airs May 9 at 8:00 PM Eastern.

Not to toot my own horn, but I do a reasonably good job of keeping everything straight. It’s not easy–currently I’m keeping track of five different reality shows, doing advance research for several more, keeping up with pro wrestling, politics, sports, horse racing, awards shows, etc. My ‘secret weapon’ is Trello–the only to do list/project manager that I’ve ever really found to be useful.

So imagine my embarrassment when I realized that there have only been 10 episodes of ‘Survivor’. What happened is that I counted the first episode of the season–a two hour extravaganza–as two episodes. That means I jumped from Episode 1 to Episode 3 when I should have been on Episode 2. At this point, I’ve got to live with it–in theory I could go back and change the previous articles to make everything as it should be but that would mess up the site permalinks and be a bad thing for SEO. So you’ll just have to pretend that there have been 11 episodes of ‘Survivor’ to date and not 10. Actually, some sources have followed with my numbering system including Entertainment Weekly who also listed the 5/2/18 episode as ‘Episode 11’. I guess that means that I’m not as wrong as I originally thought.

There were two contestants eliminated in the previous episode (what we call Episode 11 but is really Episode 10) and our numbers were at least *half* right. Michael Yerger was one of the contestants who met with elimination and he was our favorite to be eliminated at +200. Jenna Bowman was the other contestant sent packing and I didn’t expect her to go out at this point. She was in an interesting position–I didn’t really expect her to win and had her priced at +1000 making her the seventh favorite out of ten contestants heading into the episode. At the same time, I had her priced at +1500 since she didn’t strike me as vulnerable.
