Where can I bet the OSCARS?

While Vegas will give out an odds line they don't accept bets. After seeing the "The Kings Speech" yesterday, I believe it will sweep all major categories. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

Irish bookmakers Paddy Power currently quote "The King's Speech" at 3-2 for Best Picture, 6-1 for Best Director (Tom Hooper), while Colin Firth is listed at 2-7 for Best Actor.

"Social Network" is favorite for Best Picture at 2-3.

Some other UK books should have Oscar betting quotes, but not all yet.

Unlike Nevada, they will accept cash money on the outcome.
Problem is, US residents cannot do business with UK bookmakers.
If you have a friend across the pond, send some $$$ their way.

Good luck!

With the nominations coming out earlier today, I thought it a good time to update the Oscars odds with the Euro books.
I saw "The King's Speech" last week. It's excellent.
Still an underdog for "Best Picture", though.

Best Picture Odds (consensus):
Social Network -250
Kings Speech +180
All others 20-1 plus

Best Director
David Fincher (Social Network) is a mortal lock.

Best Actor
Colin Firth (King's Speech) is a bigger mortal lock.

Best Actress
Natalie Portman (Black Swan) -1000 (fagedaboutit)

The main categories don't look too bettable this year.
They do, however, have betting on 20 more categories, Geesh!
