Wynn Las Vegas Race and Sports Book sets odds for Oscars 2017 wins

The Oscar nominations were released Tuesday and are already getting a lot of buzz for both the season’s frontrunners and the notably diverse nature of this year’s nods.

“La La Land” matched “Titanic” (1997) and “All About Eve” (1950) with a record-tying 14 nominations.

“Arrival” and “Manchester by the Sea” tied for the second most nominations this year with eight nods.

Johnny Avello, director of race and sports operations at Wynn Las Vegas, has his own idea of how it will all unfold on Feb. 26.

As always, these odds are for entertainment purposes only.
