Johnny Avello, director of the Race & Sports Book at Wynn Las Vegas Resort & Country Club, has released odds for the winners in several categories for the 65th Annual Golden Globe Awards and "Celebrity Apprentice," which premiered on Thursday, January 3 on NBC.


Odds-maker Avello's Golden Globe favorites include "No Country For Old Men" for Best Motion Picture—Drama, Julie Christie for Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture—Drama for her performance in "Away From Her," Daniel Day-Lewis for Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture—Drama for his role in "There Will Be Blood," and "Juno" for Best Motion Picture—Musical or Comedy.


For Donald Trump's "Celebrity Apprentice," Avello has actress Marilu Henner picked to win, followed by retired professional boxer Lennox Lewis.


With more than 20 years of experience in the gaming industry, Avello's predictions are derived from a combination of odds-making formulas, researching and reading, and networking with people in the business and community. Created for entertainment purposes only, his television-show odds are continually featured on numerous television programs including "Extra!" and "Good Morning America" with his predictions for "Dancing with the Stars." Next month, he will begin his weekly participation on E! Entertainment's "Daily Ten" with his favorites for the ever-popular "American Idol."
