In response to "who do we think is going to win?" by kare

David's current Top Chef odds (spoilers if you didn't watch last week, I guess)

2:1 Jeff - Bonnie is totally right about the mirrors, but his experience in cooking on camera is huge. He also always seems to have a game plan when he cooks.

3:1 Radhika - Doesn't seem to make mistakes but her cuisine always seems more finite than some of the other competitors.

5:1 Fabio - Seems genteel enough in his Italian caricature to hide the fact that he's about as manipulative as Stefan.

7:1 Hosea - Really coming on strong in recent episodes as he gains more confidence that he is among the most talented contestants this season. I like him as a dark horse to win it all.

10:1 Stefan - Personality seems poised to implode, negating his unmistakable natural talent. He's closer to getting eliminated than to winning at the moment.

12:1 Ariane - Sometimes she's the bull and sometimes she's the cow. Even she doesn't seem to know which it is going to be on any given day.

15:1 Jamie - An odd mix of ego and insecurity, she seems convinced she's the best chef there on some days. On others, she seems hopeful the judges will just eliminate her and get it over with. Toward the start of the season, I thought she could win. If she had delivered a bad dish last week, I think she would have gone.

20:1 Carla - Was a coin flip to go home last week. There were 17 contestants to start the season. An elimination tonight would put her in 8th place, which is about right for her down home flavor, I think. I'll be surprised if she is still a contestant by Valentine's Day but keep in mind that a finalist last year scraped the bottom every elimination then almost managed to win the show.
