Betting on Hockey Dates Back The Early 20th Century
Betting on hockey can be traced back to the Low European Countries as far back as the Middle Ages, and is one of the four most popular spectator sports in the US. This is with good reason; it is action-packed, tough and great fun to watch. In a country like the US it is possible for fans to place bet on hockey at any time of the year. There always seems to be something happening.
This is a Winter Olympics sport which is when the most bet on hockey takes place. The NHL is also one of the highest grossing league sports for professionals in the world, so it is popularly watched and a great deal of betting on hockey takes place during NHL games. Winning The Stanly Cup is the highest accolade in this game and no-one team has managed to dominate the cup during the past decade, although the Detroit Redwings seem to have more first and second place showings than any other team. You will probably find odds on them will be quite short because of their brilliant game.
Currently fans of hardcore hockey action can get fixed and other odds at Bet770. They take bets on the NHL which includes playoffs as well as the Stanley Cup, NCAA - College Hockey, the IIHF World Championships, and all European leagues including the DEL, Super League, and the Olympic Games. Bets on offer are 3-ways, 1/3, spreads and goals! However Bet 365 Sports book offers odds on 14 popular choices of bet during the NHL season including playoff games: - Grand Salami
- Nightly Props
- Team to Score First
- Race to 3 goals
- Final Score
- Highest scoring period
- Odd or even total game score
- Home goals vs. away goals
- Money Line 3-way
- Time of first score
- Margin of victory
- Team scoring 1st wins game
- Team to score last
- Odd or even team total
This is essentially the Stanley Cup, and what makes it so much fun is there are nightly proposition bets also. They also offer European Ice Hockey betting for Sweden, Slovakia, Germany and Poland. European betting sites will offer odds in decimals for example Bet770 currently have 3.30 odds on the Pittsburg penguins against 1.91 on the Detroit Redwings. We said earlier that shorter odds would be available on the Redwings as they are the most successful NHL Team - these odds indicate that. In the US Money line odds are used and in the UK this is fractions. Placing bet on hockey has been popular since the game turned professional at the start of the 20th century. It all started out with the Western Pennsylvania League in 1902. NHL or the National Hockey League got its start in Canada in 1917 and in 1924 this expanded into the US. The first European professional league was founded in 1916 in Switzerland and now most countries in Europe are home to a pro ice hockey league; the Czech Extraliga is probably one of the most famous leagues but many of the best European pro players migrate to the US and this is for obvious reason - the money! |

| The blank sheet |
If there is someone within the poker world who cannot claim to have a blank sheet, then that would be Sorel Mizzi. The born Canadian got busted several times in his career in what seems to become a never ending story. Earlier this week Mizzi faced new allegations at a well known poker forum. On that forum Shaun Deeb posted on behalf of his friend John Racener a story about a once again cheating Solel Mizzi during a game of Chinese Poker. Apparently Mizzi dealt himself a joker from the bottom of the deck. A very old trick which was clearly not appreciated by John Racener. Solel is always the first to defend himself and this time was no different. Once again he issued a clear statement in which he claims to be innocent, for a change. Of course all this does not exactly add to his credibility. And then to think that his week started off so well! His old account at Full Tilt Poker even got unbanned and the Canadian had success at the virtual table. Still he does not seem to be able to stay away from trouble and it seems unavoidable that this story will be continued. |
