Jon Snow Gains Favor in Game of Thrones Betting Odds to Win the Iron Throne

Jon Snow (Kit Harington) had his hands full during the Battle of Winterfell on Game of Thrones' latest episode, "The Long Night," but Las Vegas bettors are now more convinced than ever that he'll end up ruling Westeros by the time the show is over.

Although the Night King was taken care of by his sister/cousin Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) while the ice dragon Viserion kept Jon busy, Jon's odds of becoming the Seven Kingdoms' new ruler jumped from +225 to +125 after Sunday's episode, according to the experts at OddsShark.

Meanwhile, Bran (Isaac Hempstead-Wright) remains the second most likely character to ascend the Iron Throne -- or whatever seat denotes power once the action moves to King's Landing -- according to these wager stats, although his odds dropped from +275 to +450 this week. Perhaps the fact that the Night King theory turned out to be a bust is a bit deflating for Bran's chances, but he's still the Three-Eyed Raven and can see everything in the past or present, so bettors haven't given up on him just yet.

Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) has kept the same +550 odds as before, but with Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner) dipping to +650 -- perhaps seeing her wait out the fight in the crypts with Tyrion (Peter Dinklage) discouraged a few bets on her -- the Mother of Dragons is now the third favorite to win control of the Realm.

Gendry (Joe Dempsie)'s chances also decreased slightly from +650 to +750 after he was barely discernible on the battlefield, and he's just a hair above Tyrion, who has +850 odds. Interestingly, the hypothetical lovechild of Jon and Daenerys got a boost this week, with its odds jumping from +2500 to +1500, so don't discount baby Targaryen just yet. Oh, and even though Cersei Lannister (Lena Headey) managed to keep all her troops intact by skipping out on the battle in the North -- and, you know, she already occupies the Iron Throne -- she remains a bettor's long shot according to OddsShark, where she holds steady at the same +2500 odds she's had all season.

The sources at US-Bookies.com, however, paint a different picture of the betting pool right now. According to their calculations, bookies are liking Sansa's chances of thwarting Queen Cersei's rule, with two to one odds, compared to Jon Snow's five to one odds, and even Gendry has a better shot at claiming control than Bran. Here's a look at their odds list for Westerosian leadership on Game of Thrones right now:

Sansa Stark: 2/1
Jon Snow: 5/1
Gendry: 6/1
Bran Stark: 7/1
Arya Stark: 11/1
Daenerys Targaryen: 11/1
Tyrion Lannister: 12/1
Samwell Tarly: 25/1
Cersei Lannister: 40/1
Jaime Lannister: 66/1

Game of Thrones airs on Sundays at 9/8c.
