Game of Thrones is the biggest, most covered show on TV, but we know shockingly little about season seven. The cast and crew are extremely tight-lipped when it comes to spoilers (one of the many reasons it’s a shame Ian McShane’s character wasn’t long for this world), and the full-length trailer reveals both everything (dragons, Sand Snakes, and White Walkers, oh my) and nothing. But one thing’s for certain in season seven: death is coming.
To be fair, that’s true of every season of Game of Thrones — there have been over 150,000 deaths — but especially for this upcoming one. The “Great War is here,” after all, so you know what that means: it’s death pool time! Boylesports revealed the betting odds for which character is most likely to expire first, a list, perhaps unsurprisingly, topped by a cagey pervert.
Characters Who Will Die First in Season 7
Petyr Baelish: 1/1
Ellaria Sand: 4/1
Euron Greyjoy: 6/1
Gregor Clegane: 6/1
Melisandre: 7/1
Cersei Lannister: 8/1
Arya Stark: 10/1
Jaime Lannister: 12/1
Tyrion Lannister: 33/1
Jon Snow: 100/1
Daenerys Targaryen: 100/1

Thr frey house all of them will die first arya is gonna poison all of them (the men).
So no Sandor Clegane, Brienne of Tarth, Davos Seaworth, and Gendry (Barratheon)? And undoubtedly Hot Pie will return and ascend the iron throne. Lyanna Mormont will murder everyone.
CLEGANEBOWL 2017 – NOBODY DIES (FUCKING CONFIRMED)
Meanwhile Gendry keeps rowing around Dragonstone.
Lyanna Mormont. Even money. Sorry not sorry.
How is Littlefinger 4x more likely to die first than to die at all? Maybe I just don’t understand statistics, but if he’s the clear frontrunner to die first, how can his overall odds of dying be significantly lower?
Also, is this what people want? I hope Littlefinger survives all the way to the end. The way he manages to slither out of bad situations is one of the best parts of the show.
They aren’t. They are saying a $100 bet on him dying first gets you $200 net. A $100 bet to die anytime gets you $128.57 net, meaning the odds makers are saying it is more likely he will die at any point than die first. It is 3.5 times higher payout betting on him dying first. They are probably also hoping to offset some of the money bet on him as a favorite to die anytime this season by giving decent betting odds for him dying first only to have someone else go first.
I think I get it now. If the first number in “X/X” is lower than the 2nd, the odds are actually greater than 1/1(?)
Remind me to steer clear of Las Vegas.
Yes, if the odds are given as x/x, just remember that 2nd number is the number of units you have to wager to win the number of units on the left.
100/1 = not likely; payout is high
1/7 = very likely; payout is low
The Warriors are a 10/17 odds (huge favorites) to win the title next year as a reference.
I’m taking bets that no one of importance dies in the first episode of the new season.
Why would Littlefinger be so high on both of these lists? His death would be more surprising to me than anyone else on the lists.
