Betting on the Super Bowl (2010)
Betting on the Super Bowl 2010 is getting more brisk as we approach the big game and more odds are becoming available each day as well.
At Sports Interaction.com, the line on the New Orleans Saints vs. Indianapolis Colts remained at Colts -6. That number had been -5 ½ throughout much of the week prior to Thursday and Gambling911.com continues to monitor any line moves closely.
The total on the Super Bowl has held steady at 56.5 at most online sportsbooks.
The good news for all you Saints backers is that, with the spread moving up to +6, the money line also becomes more enticing. Yes it is rare for the underdog to win in a Super Bowl but just two years ago we witnessed the New York Giants walk off victorious as a pretty big underdog. Here we have the Saints paying nearly 2/1 odds if they were to win outright at Sports Interaction.
Betting on the Super Bowl 2010 will encompass literally hundreds of different prop bets, some of which offer the potential for lofty payouts.
Early on the books were not shy about posting Winning Margin odds. For example, if Indy were to have a 16 to 20 blowout, the payout will be $80 for every $10 bet or $800 for every $100 bet.
Other Super Bowl prop bets include which team will score first, what that score will be (touchdown or field goal or other), highest scoring half, first offensive play (pass or run), team to score the longest touchdown, and tons of half time and quarter betting options.
Among the most popular Super Bowl betting props is the coin toss, which nearly always pays even odds (team to win and whether it will be heads or tails).
The player to win MVP is pretty much always part of anyone's card who is betting on the Super Bowl and, with Peyton Manning paying even odds this year, Gambling911.com says it's "like stealing candy from a child". This year we have the following odds being offered on the MVP: (+100 means a $10 bet pays $10, +300 means a $10 bet pays $30, and so on)
Peyton Manning +100
Drew Brees +300
Joseph Addai +800
Pierre Thomas +800
Reggie Wayne +1000
Marques Colston +1200
Dallas Clark +1400
Pierre Garcon +1500
Donald Brown +1600
Reggie Bush +1600
