Sam's odds of winning Pop Idol have shortened further still despite Chris' shock exit from the competition on Saturday night.
Mark has continued to defy the bookies by staying in week on week but his odds of winning are still a distant 10/1 with William Hill.
Michelle remains second favourite at 11/4 but Sam rules the roost at 2/7 odds.
Elsewhere, the Idols are still 4/7 favourites to claim the Christmas number one against tough competition from The Darkness with odds of 7/2.
