I fully admit that I love a good Game of Thrones fan theory. I fall for just about every click bait article that claims to have a new one and after reading the article I scan the comments to see how everyone weighs in things.

Saying that, I hope you all don’t disappoint me in the comments below with your theories.

Variety just ran a piece that covered the gambling scene that the final season of Game of Thrones has created, including the current Vegas odds for a variety of outcomes.

For normal bets, they cover topics like who will die next and who will sit on the Iron Throne but they also go into some obscure happenings like who will win between the Hound and the Mountain in a competition called Cleganebowl, or how many living people will Arya kill.

Seems like you can gamble on just about anything.

Let’s take a look at some of them:

Will Arya Wear Littlefinger’s Face?
No: -300
Yes: +200

Will Cersei Give Birth?
No: -260
Yes: +175

Does Tyrion Have a Secret Plot with Cersei?
No: -200
Yes: +150

Who Will Win Cleganebowl?
Sandor “The Hound” Clegane: -480
Gregor “The Mountain” Clegane: +300
Both Die Or Are Destroyed: +350

How Many Living People Will Arya Kill In Season 8?
Over 3.5: -115
Under 3.5: -115

Will Quaithe Be Shown Again In The Final Season?
No: -400
Yes: +300

What Will Bran Warg Into Next?
Raven: +125
Dragon: +300
Human: +300
Wolf: +300
Other: +400

Who Will Die First?
Euron Greyjoy: +200
Theon Greyjoy: +200
Cersei Lannister: +500
Jaime Lannister: +500
Yara Greyjoy: +1,000
Arya Stark: +1,500
Tyrion Lannister: +1,500
Daenerys Targaryen: +2,500
Jon Snow: +2,500
Sansa Stark: +2,500

Who Will Kill Cersei?
Jaime Lannister: +130
Arya Stark: +150
Does Not Die: +550
Tyrion Lannister: +550
Sansa Stark: +1,000
Daenerys Targaryen: +2,000
Jon Snow: +2,000
The Night King: +2,000
Euron Greyjoy: +2,500
Qyburn: +2,500
Ellaria Sand: +4,000

Petyr Baelish: +1,250

Cersei Lannister: +2,500
Jon and Daenerys’ baby: +2,500

Brienne of Tarth: +10,000
Jaqen H’ghar: +10,000
Jorah Mormont: +10,000
Melisandre: +10,000
Daario Naharis: +12,500
Beric Dondarrion: +12,500
The Hound: +12,500
Gilly: +15,000
Theon Greyjoy: +15,000
Yara Greyjoy: +15,000
Tormund Giantsbane: +15,000
The Mountain: +15,000

Looks like Jon Snow is looking like the safe bet to sit on the Iron Throne. What I’m curious about is how they’ll have things with the Night King play out and will he turn out to be someone we know. We’ll see soon enough but until then, share those personal theories below!
