Play The Charles Jay Line at BoxingScene.com for some "Breathtaking" Action

Charles Jay provides some of the most creative and innovative fantasy proposition wagering on the internet, on forums like the one at BoxingScene.com

Elkhart, IN (PRWEB) May 7, 2006 -- On Monday, May 8, magician David Blaine will attempt to hold his breath underwater for almost nine minutes, breaking the previous world record. A nationwide audience will be watching this feat performed live on ABC Television.

Can Blaine pull it off?

Charles Jay thinks so.

Jay, arguably the most creative oddsmaker in America, has established Blaine as a favorite to set the world record, according to "The Charles Jay Line," the service currently propelling the vBookie system in the well-trafficked user forums of Boxing Scene.com (http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/).

The forum has over 35,000 members, many of whom enjoy fantasy betting on boxing and other sports, entertainment, politics, current events, pop culture and more. Jay supplies the odds, including hundreds and hundreds of original propositions, as players "wager" against the house for bragging rights and - soon to come - monthly prizes.

One of the bets they'll make involves Blaine's quest. Jay has priced Blaine at -165 to be successful (meaning one would wager $1.65 for every dollar returned in profit), and +155 not to make it (win $1.55 for every dollar bet), essentially making him an interpolated 8/5 favorite.

This comes on the heels of Jay putting up nearly 100 wagering options on Saturday boxing events, including the pay-per-view fight between Oscar De la Hoya and Ricardo Mayorga, in which he made De la Hoya a 3/1 (-300) favorite to win Mayorga's title at 154 pounds. "Oscar's got a class edge in this fight, despite the long layoff," said Jay. "And with many millions on the line in a prospective fight with Floyd Mayweather, you better believe they picked this opponent carefully. However, Mayorga's dangerous, so this isn't a runaway."

Charles Jay also put together a slew of propositions on Saturday's Kentucky Derby, which included head-to-head matchups between horses, quarter-mile and finishing times, and much, much more. Brother Derek was listed as the favorite, at 9/2.

All this, in addition to the wager offerings that are updated on a regular basis, including odds on each episode of "The Sopranos," reality shows like "American Idol," professional wrestling, weekend box-office figures, Ebert & Roeper movie reviews, political propositions, even wagers on the weather and the stock market.
