BRITAIN-ROYALS-BABY-GAMBLING

Screens offering odds on the gender, weight, name, birthdate, future university and hair colour of Britain’s Royal baby are displayed at a bookmakers in London on June 27, 2013. Will it be a girl called Alexandra, or a boy called Wayne? No one outside Buckingham Palace knows but it has not stopped punters from around the world betting on Britain’s royal baby. Bookmakers say they expect that wagers on the arrival of Prince William and Catherine’s first child will outstrip those for the couple’s wedding in 2011, previously the biggest market for so-called novelty bets.
