Top 5 candidates predicted by bookies to win Miss Universe 2019

[Sanitough]

I watched the Miss Universe pageant and was disappointed when my bet did not make it to the top 10, it's a loss for me so I will just congratulate those who win which I'm pretty sure few of them only since the winner is not part of the favorites in sports book.

Lesson learned, don't bet on the top 5 as they don't win. 

Congratulations to the South Africa and its bettors, enjoy your big winning as this contestant has a great odds .

South Africa   +2500

That's $2500 return for a $100 bet. (very unpredictable).

Yep, huge returns if you have bet on Miss South Africa.



No back to back title for the Philippines, interesting to note that this two countries (South Africa and Philippines) are battling it out in the last 4-5 years in this beauty contest. Time for the Philippines to take the game one notch higher next year.

Part of the marketing strategy on the sports betting sites and yes, this must be a lesson to learn and a competition like this is unpredictable.
I also never expect who's gonna win and I think it is impossible that the Philippines will win again.

I have been watched the pageant of Miss Universe2019 last night and Congratulation to Miss South African candidate who got the crown and of course their bettors I'm sure they are celebrating right now. "Wakanda Forever" to the South Africans.

I remembered this scene of how happy she is.



"Wakanda" as a salute to there excellence.

Yeah! I do not hope too much that Philippines will take home the crown once again simply because the preceding beauty queen is a Filipino as well. If Gazini won, I'm pretty sure that bad critics along social media or even different countries will approach in no time. Most probably they say that "judges are biased" blah blah blah. What I'm not expecting is that she failed to be at least on the Top 10 because the previous Filipina candidates did. So sad . Anyway, I'm happy that South Africa won — she now reprepsent a new face of beauty .

Oh ! You made me wonder. What if there's really a place called Wakanda and she came from from lol . (What a coincidence!)

The first time I see the Miss Universe this is the first thing that I thought. She looks like Okoye in the black panther.
I think the Philippines also have a pretty solid candidate but still, the South Africa candidate won the crown I have no complaints I think it was a great choice.

I cant even imagine how anyone will select one candidate in all of these ladies. Miss South Africa is definitely deserving but I dont think I would have bet on her. Miss phili is beautiful and definitely would have been my choice for the win.

She's not my bet either I thought Puerto Rico will take home the crown, we are not one of the judges and we have not seen what these judges have seen, but congratulation to South Africa, there's so many meme's about her winnings like Wakanda forever, I don't it think should be that way, she came from South Africa not from imaginary place like Wakanda

He deserve it as the judges seen the talents that she've got. I see your point as most of us who watched the coronations didn't expected the outcome
but I agree that judges have it's own point of views regarding to how they will give the points to each ladies who participated from this event. I congratulate Miss South Africa for returning the crown to their country.

@sheenshane, WAKANDA FOREVER... lol,, you have some kind of humor man, ...

Anyway, big congratulations to Miss south Africa, the final 3 contestants all gave a brilliant answer but her answer is more specific and complete.

[bitcoin31]

Actually we have already miss Universe 2019 and that is Ms universe South Africa and I watched the pageant yesterday on the television and I really like her answer.  I bet Ms.Philippines also but she is not in the top 10 only in top 20 and that is wild cart choice but she do her best to show her beauty and personality to the whole world and congratulations among those candidates who join the competition they are so brave and unique women in the world.

Of course, she did here best but it was not what we are expecting, she doesn't look smart or witty with during here interview and maybe one of the reasons why she was not part of the top 10. Anyway, the competition is over, so better luck next time, this time around is for WAKANDA> haha

I still don't understand how sportsbooks do give odds for such miss universe things, I mean I get that there were leaks about who would be the winner and chances (not always right) but isn't beauty subjective? So, we are all thinking about what the judges of this competition will see as beautiful and try to guess that.

There are like 5-10 people as judges and those people may think beauty in women could be being blonde, being tall, being short, being skinny, being curvy, there could be millions of things, literally millions of things, that shape one persons beauty understanding and the odds basically are saying "judges understanding of beauty is this woman" which is something insane to think about.

I also don't think the winner is the most beautiful of them all, she would be top 10 easily but not the winner if you asked me so I could have never guessed who could win and bet on such a game.

South African has always represented the continent Africa well when it comes to beauty pageant. Although the first black miss world was from Nigeria, the South African beauty queens has always made us proud especially in the miss universe category. This isn't the first time they're emerging the champions and on numerous occasions they have been runner ups. Just glad black is finally been recognized as beauty as I read online some prestigious beauty pageants winners are blacks. (e.g miss USA, miss Teen USA, miss universe etc)

Watch the video of when Miss South Africa was announced Miss universe and what caught my attention was how miss Nigeria force her way from the back to the front to congratulate her and how other black contestants plus others huged her, it was a thing of joy and sigh of unity. Congratulations to her once more.

Wakanda forever... 🤗

These kind is the events that we shouldn't let to pass. What I mean is that, sea games, miss universe, and other tournaments that is worldwide should be taken as an opportunity to gamble and bet. If and only if there would be someone to manage a betting game about these games, we could earn profits and at the same time, be proud if ever if the contestant is part of the country, and they win, then lots of fun could be extracted from these.

No, last year, sportsbooks' top picks included Philippines, South Africa, and Puerto Rico; and all these three made it to the top 5 with Philippines getting the crown.

So I don't think sportsbooks always get it wrong. In many cases, the predictions of bookies come true or come so close to the final results.

Unfortunately the candidate of Philippines Ms Gazini Ganados stuttered during her introductory spiel and the way she delivered her speech sounded like she memorized it thats why the was a moment she paused and continued. That ended the streak of Philippines to be in the top 10 for the last 10 years.

Bad choice as a candidate or not just a lucky year for the Philippines?

Anyway, I think this thread discussions has gone too far, may I request the OP to lock this thread already, sending a PM Now. sent

Bad choice as a candidate or not just a lucky year for the Philippines?

Not really a bad choice. The candidate sent by the Philippines come prepared however, there are times that when you got nervous specially on this kind of events where the world is watching you, you become conscious on your surrounding. If you watch how the Philippine candidate answer, it looks like she is nervous and her eyes are not focused on just one direction.

[peter0425]

well lets close the issue since the event ended couple days ago.

but like everyone South Africa this time is the last to win for me,because coming from behind?he successfully take the crown from the strongest candidates like philippines and other countries.

anyway Congratulations to South African Miss U,and i think OP needs to lock this thread.

I am not actually used in watching Miss Universe, but I think it is quite feels to good if your nation wins but sadly, Philippines lost. I am quite happy about this on the other hand because I haven't initiated any betting in relation to the miss universe, so I haven't lost any amount so far which for me is what matters the most.
