Las Vegas oddsmakers eye Twitter IPO

Las Vegas is putting its money on Twitter 𒐪listing on the New York Stock Exchange𒉰.

Kevin Bradley, the Sportsbook Manager at Bovada.lv., puts the odds of the ♚San Francisco microblogging site choosing the NYSE at 4 to 7 — a clear favorite.

That means for a $7 bet, you’ll win $4,

Nasdaq’s odds for grabbing t♈he listing is 7 to 5, according to Bradley.

Although it’s unusual for bookies to formulate odds on a Wall Street IPO, Bradley says that the buzz around popular tech compa🦂nies like Twitter make them good betting plays.

“We offered odds on the Facebook IPO back when it✨ went public,” Bradley noted via email.

“We tend to offer these lines when there is a good amount of public interest in an IPO and socia𒀰l media platforms inherently seem to fit the bill because of the buzz they tend to create in the media and amongst eve🍃ryday people, not just the investors, “ he added.

Bradley said t💛hat bets on Twitter 🍒have been ticking up since odds on the stock offering were published last week.

The fact that Twitter decided to file a con𓄧fident♔ial S-1 also has helped drum up intrigue around the company.

Bettors can 🍒place their Twitter wagers on everything from when the offering is likely to launch its IPO to what its most likely ticker symbol will be.

So far the🧸 odds are 🉐5 to 8 that Twitter will go public before Dec. 7.

The Post first reported that the tec♐h company was eyeing an IPO around Thanksgiving.

Odds makers also appear to be leaning toward the ticker sym🌠bol “TWTR” (odds of 5 to 6), over “TWIT” (3 to 1). Possible ticker “BIRD” and EGG, have long odds 🦩of 35 to 1 and 50 to 1, respectively.

“After excluding possible ticker symbols al♛ready in use like TCO, TW, and TWI, we made a list of possible abbreviations based off the word Twitter,” Bradley wrote.
