World Cup Update

Posted In: Football, Sports Betting

The World Cup is a week in, and already we’ve been privy to some fantastic football. While the goals haven’t been flowing as much as we expected, the betting opportunities have been first-rate. Bodog has all the odds.

Who would have predicted that Spain, Germany, and England would all be upset by lower ranked nations in the opening fixtures? Perhaps the biggest shock of all was last night’s 1-1 draw between reigning World Cup champions Italy and no-hopers New Zealand. Read the rest of this entry »

A Few More WC Novelties

Posted In: Football, Promotions, Sports Betting

Here’s one last hurrah before the World Cup kicks off on Friday. Paddy Power has released another horde of novelty bets for punters to have a wager on, so head over to the online bookmaker to start winning big.

Bookies are still very worried that England might win the World Cup. If the Three Lions manage to pull off such a feat, online bookmakers are staring down the barrel of current payout odds of 8/1 – drifting from 6/1 ten days ago. While the majority of punters are tipping Argentina or the Netherlands to make an unlikely run to the World Cup final, there are still plenty of England faithfuls looking for a massive payout come the end of the tournament.

“Unusually England are yet to be the most popular team in terms of number of bets, suggesting some punters are weary of getting their fingers burnt yet again by a heart-breaking Three Lions failure,” Paddy Power spokesperson Darren Haines said. “It may also be a case that a more betting savvy nation is increasingly gambling with its head than its heart, but even though they may not be the most backed team, bookies still fear the potential payout on an England victory more than any other team.”

Here are a few of the latest bets that you can enjoy at Paddy Power, but be sure to head over to the online bookie for the complete list of standard and novelty World Cup bets.

Themed WC Bets at Paddy Power

Posted In: Football, Sports Betting

With the World Cup being held in Africa for the very first time, Paddy Power has released a number of lucrative bets for punters to enjoy. Have a bet on a Desmond Tutu (2-2 draw), but don’t mention the Bore War (0-0 draw).

Despite being the host nation, South Africa aren’t even expected to get out of their group, let alone contest the knockout stages. As it stands, Bafana Bafana are sitting on odds of 7/4 to qualify for the Round of 16, but odds of 7/5 to finish bottom of their group.

Those football crazy folks at Paddy Power have even created a few humorous bets that are certain to entice any history buffs. Bore Wars and Desmond Tutu draws will be running throughout the tournament, but, hopeful of an exciting World Cup, odds for four or more Desmonds are sitting at just 8/11.
