NEW YORK, Sept. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Today a significant number of accounts were opened at Sportsbook.com to wager solely on reality television. All the new bettors were from California and all placed the maximum wager on Lukas Rossi to win Rock Star Supernova. The show has a live finale, so the winner should not be known. Sportsbook.com has decided to halt betting for fear that the band including rock legends Tommy Lee, Jason Newsted and Gilby Clarke has already chosen their front man in Rossi and the word leaked out.

Lukas Rossi has been a hit with fans on the popular CBS show since it began airing so it was no surprise he had the best odds at Sportbook.com. Rossi posted odds of 10-13 this morning, ahead of his competitors, Dilana Robichaux at 5-2, Toby Rand at 3-2, and Magni Asgeirsson at 4-1. When betting was halted Rossi's odds closed at 5-9.
