It did count as a win, and the payout on the bet actually spoiled it for me before I watched the episode :/
Bittersweet I guess.
congrats on the win anyway! Grin

Thank god I didn't bet on this. For some reason I didn't think Walter was gonna die, but he kind of had to.

Did the Breaking Bad one count as a win?

They showed him laying dead on the floor when the police arrived.

Would have said spoiler alert but the thread title should be enough of a warning Cheesy

***Spoiler alert***


I've watched Dexter from season one and have thought out how the end would come. To my surprise Dexter didn't take a dirt nap but I am pleased with the end result. It would of been ok if he went with Debra in the end and they didn't add the ending logger scene.

I think a more important bet for BB would be what will happen to Jessie

He's the perfect spin-off character but could also get brutally killed in the last season, or even arrested

In terms of the out come for Walt

I don't think it is very likely he will survive, remember he has the DEA breathing down his neck (Hank hinted at knowing in the last ep) and he has cancer which has been in remission but I think it's likely to be the thing that kills him

I remember watching in interviews with Vince Gilligan that they were going to have Jessie killed in the earlier seasons of the show, but he evolved into something integral to the show. But the way he says it hints that Jesse was always meant to die they were just postponing it. I would bet that Jessie dies in the end.

I can't believe that he didn't get discovered as the Bay Harbor Butcher, and the brain surgeon barely put up a fight. So weak!

Actually, just re-read your original post and see you didn't bet on Dexter and only bet on Breaking Bad!
Good choice there! Grin

**Spoiler Alert, if you open this topic you already know there are spoilers tough.**

Dexter didn't die, I don't know what will they do to Walter White but I hope he finds what he deserves. We'll see 3 days later.

Nope, he didn't. The whole final season was pretty weak IMO, they didn't make the shit hit the fan at all. Breaking Bad has been throwing the shit against the fan repeatedly all season, I have very high hopes for the double length series finale.

Yeah that season finale for Dexter was shit, I was actually watching it and thought you'd win your bet when he started to head his boat in towards the storm... then he became a lumberjack..?

A lot of this season was nonsense. Nobody notices a guy taking a body out of a hospital in broad daylight and walking onto their boat?? I know there was a lot going on but wouldn't somebody notice Cheesy

I predict the famous "ricin" that has lasted the entire series will be used on Walt on himself after he gives the police a confession to save Skyler. Or jesse will use it on walt.

But also there's a chance that everyone in Walt's family will die. Why stop at hank :\.

Best show ever.

After the last few episodes I am starting to think Dexter won't die by the finale.

Still think Walter White is a goner though  Lips sealed

Dexter was too close to call for me when I made the bet, so I abstained from that one. On the one hand, he has a son who we as the audience really don't want to see orphaned. On the other hand, ever since ****Dexter SPOILER ALERT**** Trinity took out Rita all bets are off as far as I'm concerned. Doubly so for Deb taking out LaGuerta.

RE: Breaking Bad, in the wrap-up show "Talking Bad" last week, the actress who plays Skylar said that all characters get the "ending they deserve," which to me means Walt is doneions. But we'll see...

Acc bought - used solely for signature testing
I heard about Breaking Bad from a friend, watched one episode then another and another and then I was hooked. Great series truly. I'm tempted to bet on this but I have no clue honestly what the ending has in store.

Interesting bets - if you ask me I'd lean towards both main characters getting killed off or going to jail in the final episode.

Dexter has a few people that could take him out between now and the finale - the blonde chick that likes poisoning people, the young guy that he's trying to mentor, or any one of the other characters in the series could discover who he is and catch/kill him too.

Walter White is also at risk of dying off, even if he doesn't get killed by something related to his occupation, don't forget he's still got the cancer so I think you chose wisely on that bet he could very easily get finished off by the end of the series.

If anyone wants to bet Walter White dies at the end of this season, I'm willing to give 2:1.

2:1 sounds very good to me. I might be willing to bet another 0.2 BTC on it if like the bet listed, you include jail as a winning outcome as well. Dexter will not go to jail, no way. WW would go to jail before he dies given the option.

If you keep your action on the site, the market will fix the odds for you per: http://trilema.com/2013/lets-understand-mutual-betting-together/

I'm intrigued enough by the concept that I would be tempted to play, and yet I don't want to click any links to do a bit of research because I don't want spoilers.. Argh, quite the dilemma. Sad

Series like these they keep the ending under wraps until the very last minute, shooting multiple alternative endings so even the cast doesn't know which one is real. All spoilers would be mere speculation I think.

I'm laughing so hard at OP trying to keep his bets alive.

Why? They actually seem like interesting bets.

I agree.

Also about a protagonist dying in a tv series -> Why not, it would fit into both series (getting arrested/killed where killed would be the better decision IMO)

It would have fit into House, or the Sopranos, or any season of 24 to name a few. Producers just don't like doing it. For what it's worth, Bryan Cranston thinks WW will die: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DT1gtOldpAo

Okay just rewatched the first scene of S05E01 on Netflix, he does do the 52 in the bacon, but 1) we have no sense of how far in the future it is, only that it's in the future, and 2) the date matches the date on his fake ID that he shows the waitress, there is no evidence that it is the same birthday as his real birthday. What there is evidence of is that he buys a big ass gun with no explanation as to why. Clearly he's about to have some kind of a showdown, he could easily die in the final episode of series.

As stated, episodes (roughly) 1-45 were his ages 50-51.

From my point-of-view, I don't think he dies or goes to jail.

It isn't concrete evidence, but it suggests that.

You're right in that the only flash-forward we've seen is him doing his weekly shenanigans.

But I doubt they'd be able to go from 51-52 in the final 8 episodes, however, it is possible.

But VERY unlikely.

It is very rare that any series ends with the protagonist dying, but if there is one to do it, either of these two would certainly be at the top of my list. Either way, you are absolutely fooling yourself if you think that the first scene is any indication that he lives; just like in the first season with the foreshadowing with the pool, the plot line will definitely coincide with the flashforward before it's all said and done. Even if you're right that the timing is off, he could have intentionally done the 52 on the birthday of his fake ID for the purpose of having an alibi for something else, or any number of other reasons. It is honestly MORE unlikely that his fake ID birthday is the same as his real birthday than him dying.

In any case, I appreciate the discussion; can't wait for the final eight episodes!

@Mooshire

Nothing has killed either bet yet...

I remember him buying a BFG in the opening scene at a bar, but don't remember what you're referring to...

If i recall correctly first scene was a 1 year flashforward, celebrating his birthday at that gas station restaurant

Correct.  Proving he doesn't die or go to jail (and it was Dennys, lol)..

Unless they do a MASSIVE fast-forward in the next 8 epsiodes which I doubt they would considering he was 50-51 in episodes 1-45.  I doubt in the next 8 he'll go from newly 51-52.

You don't pay close attention to detail.

Well that's a pretty douchy thing to say considering it was like a year ago that the episode came out. You sound pretty confident, you should bet 'No.' Otherwise go troll elsewhere.

Not trying to be a douchebag...  Just pointing out the obvious.

Plus if someone's going to bet, they'd know their facts... Especially if they KNOW FOR A FACT they'd win.

There also was a big flashforward at the end of the first half of the season when Walter stacked up all of that cash. If he wasn't going to have to fight for his life, then why did he buy that huge ass gun at the beginning of the season before the flashback?

Walter White doesn't go to jail...

Watch the first three minutes of S5E1..

Goes to show he lives to be 51 (maybe 52, correct me if I'm wrong) and a free man.   Failing to see why so many people are forgetting / forgot about that scene.

Just wanted to inform the gambling community of two bets that I put up and got approved on BitBet.us (links are referral links):

The title character will die on Dexter Season 8
The TV show Dexter's final season will include the certain death of its title character, Dexter Morgan. Bet will resolve at Yes only if character's corpse is actually depicted.

Breaking Bad's Walter White will die/go to jail in the final season
The character Walter White will either die or receive a jail sentence and be imprisoned in the final season of the TV show Breaking Bad. Bet will resolve at yes only if character's corpse is depicted and/or a jail sentence is explicitly made and White is depicted in custody.

I bet yes on Walter White, but abstained from Dexter. Discussion of said topics also welcome. Smiley
