If you aren't betting on chestnut you are just burning cash.

yup. lock city. he made it look too easy last year. no reason why you wouldnt be good to go again on that play for at least this year

I believe Kobayashi isn't even in the field this year; might want to try and cancel that bet.

They have a woman only this year on the side.

That little Asian girl ( black widow , I think).
I would live to see a line on her. She can put away some wieners.

Chestnut / Black widow parlay for
the max is the play for Independence Day.

The best part of the whole event is the announcer, george shea. Dude is pure genius.

"They say that competitive eating is the battle ground upon which god and lucifer wage war for mens souls."

"He is eating in an arena of pure emotion."

"His ancestors stand on the shores of time, looking up the highway of history at this, the culmination of his DNA."

"We arrive at this moment by the sum of all our paths and the unswerving punctuality of chance. By the individual choices of true americans."

Chestnut is a lock to win, Bodog has -500 Chestnut vs field. Also has Chestnut -9.5 dogs vs field at -130.

Kobayashi - 6 victories, set and broke his own record 4 times. I am sucked into the hot dog drama and think he comes out strong after last years media chaos. Its not like the guy is not a proven winner. He is still a champion competetive eater and the plus money for the field against Chestnut is a good value bet. Looking at past year numbers, Chestnut eats to his competion, Kobayashi goes out and does his best no matter what the field is doing. Yes Chestnut holds the record but he has never won by more than single digit dogs and Kobayashi has blown away the field in the past. As far as bets on eating goes it is not a regular thing for me but I feel it is good value on the field and Kobayashi has a good a chance to win, and I like him even more at plus money! Get some.

And yes the black widow can have my dog anytime. :103631605

He is not in the actual event- he will be eating from a rooftop in Manhattan in front of a big screen tv. He is still banned from Nathans for not signing a contract.
