(Let’s hope it’s a better investment than [Cersei’s decision](http://time.com/5588396/lena-headey-cersei-lannister-game-of-thrones-final-scene/ "undefined") to shell out for the Golden Company.) [Paddy Power](https://www.paddypower.com/bet "undefined"), an online betting site in the U.K., calculated the updated odds on a future ruler — or rulers! — of Westeros and survival rates for the rest of the _Thrones_ cast following the [penultimate episode](http://time.com/5588147/game-of-thrones-green-fire-jon-daenerys/ "undefined"). Things have certainly changed for Daenerys Targaryen, Mother of Dragons, following her fiery rampage at King’s Landing: she’s now by far the favorite to die according to popular opinion on Paddy Power, with 1/4 odds for her death, which comes to about 80%. Of the other still-living fan favorites, Jon Snow has 5/4 odds to die, 4/7 to live; Tyrion Lannister is 6/4 to die, 1/2 to live; and Arya Stark is 5/2 to die, 1/4 to live, making her survival exactly opposite of Dany’s projected death. As for the final ruler of the Seven Kingdoms? Paddy Power players seem to think Bran Stark will take the crown, with 5/4 odds. He’s followed by his sister Sansa Stark at 5/2 odds, Jon Snow at 4/1, Arya Stark at 6/1 and no one at all with 8/1 odds. (At the very bottom of the list, with 400/1 odds, is good old [Hot Pie](http://time.com/4355413/game-of-thrones-characters-returning/item/hot-pie/ "undefined").) The final episode of _Game of Thrones_ airs on HBO at 9 p.m. on May 19, at which point we’ll know which bets were dead on, and which were just dead. Because after all, when you play the game of thrones, you win or you die. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5588253/game-of-thrones-odds/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5588253/game-of-thrones-odds/"},"headline":"Here's What People Are Betting Will Happen on the Game of Thrones Finale","datePublished":"2019-05-14T20:23:45.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:58:57.994Z","description":"The odds are high that Dany will die","url":"https://time.com/5588253/game-of-thrones-odds/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Television","game of thrones","onetime","clickmonsters"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt829a1e3e68f00aac/69894982929fad3bf8bf329a/game-of-thrones-s8-e4-grey-worm-daenerys-tyrion.jpeg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Raisa Bruner","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt829a1e3e68f00aac/69894982929fad3bf8bf329a/game-of-thrones-s8-e4-grey-worm-daenerys-tyrion.jpeg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Game-of-Thrones-S8-E4-Grey-Worm-Daenerys-Tyrion","caption":"","creditText":"HBO","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5588253/game-of-thrones-odds/","name":"Here's What People Are Betting Will Happen on the Game of Thrones Finale"}}]}] ```
