Bachelor Betting Pool 2019
The new season of The Bachelor premieres on Monday night, and you can play along with the show from week-to-week in The Bachelor Fantasy League. Each week, we’ll pore over all the episode previews to give you the best fantasy picks. Which contestants are surefire fantasy locks in Week 1? We’re here to help.
- The sexual tension is at boiling point on the photoshoot group date. Things get super steamy between Matt and Abby and the pashing continues onto the cocktai.
- The most recent season of The Bachelor featured a man choosing from a pool of 30 women. Most legitimate Bachelor betting sites offer advantageous bonuses for first-time depositors, as well. ABC will give us multiple seasons of the show. In 2019, for example, we had a season of The Bachelor, a season of Bachelor.
- Ideas for improving the site and any issues with the forum software. Issues with staff or other members should be addressed through pm to admin.
Bachelor Fantasy League is an online fantasy game where viewers can pick a team of contestants each week that will score points according to a set of weekly categories. Each week, ABC will reveal a specific set of categories for a given show – “receives a rose” or “kisses Colton” – and you have to pick the 10 contestants who you believe will score the most points.
All you have to do is visit ABC.com/BFL and sign up. Then check out the categories for this week and select 10 contestants. Make sure to lock in your picks before 8:00 p.m. ET on Monday.
Situated on 11 acres overlooking the famed Atlantic City Boardwalk and Atlantic Ocean, Resorts AC offers 942 guest rooms and suites. Stay in our Rendezvous Tower offering the largest rooms on the boardwalk or stay in our Ocean Tower and enjoy its proximity to the beach and boardwalk.
You might be thinking that Week 1 is a total toss-up, as we don’t know much about the 30 different women who will by vying for Colton’s heart. You’d be mistaken! ABC has given us plenty of teaser and preview footage that can help shape your fantasy roster.
You can watch a short 20-second video introduction from each contestant on the Bachelor YouTube channel. It’s a good way to get an early indication of who your favorites may be, and should help you attach a name to a face when the show finally begins. There’s also been a number of episode previews floating around Twitter. Note: Our picks are based on all available footage that emerges prior to an episode. Some of these picks could be considered small spoilers.
The objective in The Bachelor Fantasy League is to pick the 10 women you believe will score in multiple categories. If one of your picks checks off more than one box this week, for example, you’ll get points for each category they score in. Keeping that in mind, here are our best picks for Week 1:
Receives the “First Impression rose”
Past relationships with Aly Raisman, Becca Kufrin and Tia Booth lead me to believe Colton is into brunettes, but HANNAH B. is one of the darkest blondes…. These are very scientific calculations.
Ultimately, I think Hannah and Colton will bond quickly over their mutual love of football, as she’s from Tuscaloosa. I’m fully expecting a “Roll Tide” as she gets out of the limo. – Marissa Kasner
Receives a rose
Last year, 21 of the 29 contestants received roses in the first episode, so this pick is really more about choosing the woman you believe will A) receive a rose and B) score in other categories.

We know KATIE uses a prop in her entrance and ERIKA wears something sparkly, and I have a feeling that both make it past the first rose ceremony. My initial favorite to win it all, however, is Hannah B., who I believe can be seen crying in this preview. – Nick Schwartz
Wears something that sparkles
If ABC is generous and includes jewelry, you’re pretty safe to take the field in this category. We see in previews that ERIKA and COURTNEY wear sparkly dresses on opening night. – NS
Brings a gift or uses a prop for her entrance
I’ve never seen an episode of The Bachelor in my life, and if you think that means I consider myself better than you, you’re 100% correct. But it makes fantasy predictions sort of tough, especially in categories like “Brings a gift or uses a prop for her entrance.” I had no idea contestants use props, or even that they get discrete “entrances.” Based on a thorough evaluation of the bios on ABC’s website, Alex D. seems like a pretty safe bet, in that her occupation is listed as “sloth” and one of the trailers shows a woman wearing a sloth costume. Probably that’s Alex D.?
Still, my choice here is undoubtedly CATHERINE, a Dr. Seuss-loving pescatarian DJ whose bio references “her dog daughter, Lucy.” Catherine has all the makings of a reality-TV wildcard, and as such I expect she will do something outrageous upon meeting Colton McBachelor, who is presumably a handsome lunkhead that will praise her free spirit. – Ted Berg
If you want the sure-fire bet, we’ve seen from previews that KATIE uses a deck of cards in her intro. – NS
Kisses Colton (on the lips)
CATHERINE. Maybe it’s the fact that she’s “an up-and-coming hip-hop DJ” that made me think she’ll want to party with Colton right away, leading to a kiss. First impressions are key. – Charles Curtis
Cries (tears rolling)

As there’s not much to go off prior to Week 1, I thought I’d look for qualities that aligned with our favorite franchise crier – Ashley I. – and found more than what I was looking for in CAELYNN. From the east coast, broadcast journalism degree, fabulous lashes. Cry for me Miss North Carolina! – MK

Speaks to Colton in a language other than English
You have a few options here, but none are locks. Revian’sbio reveals that she’s fluent in Mandarin, Courtney says she can speak “gibberish,” and Nina revealed that she’s fluent in Croatian and also learning Spanish.
It’s unclear whether gibberish would even count as a separate language, so we’re going with NINA, who I believe is a pretty safe choice to receive a rose. – NS
Wears the same dress as another woman to the rose ceremony
So I thought I had no chance of actually making the correct pick here, but then I saw this tweet over the weekend…
That’s HEATHER and LAURA. One problem: I don’t believe that’s a rose ceremony — it looks like the first night — but since I have no other reason to suspect two more women will wear the same dress. – Steven Ruiz
