Firstly I have to say, that money and losses apart, I have never seen anyone play tennis like Rafael Nadal. He not only lifted the game of tennis to a new level, he wiped the surface of the clay court with the world No. 1, Roger Federer. The sports book sections of the online casinos were offering good odds on Federer and longer odds on Nadal, so I decided to go for a modest win. I would have been happy to get back $14,000 for my $10,000 bet. I was sure Federer would walk away with this game. Anyway it’s over and done with and I’m busy studying the odds for the Euro 2008 football trophy which is just starting. The 10 front runners at this time are Germany followed by Portugal, Spain, Italy, France, Holland, Croatia, The Czech republic, Greece and Russia. Odds range from 3:1 on Germany all the way down to 20:1 on Russia. Anyone looking for even longer odds can find many other European teams that have not made the top ten. An online gambling portal called http://www.euro2008odds.co.uk/ is a portal to 6 of the leading and largest UK online casinos who include sportsbetting and who will open a deposit account for you and allow you to place your bets. The football promises great entertainment for billions of viewers around the world. You have to hand it to the Ger¬mans, and if the bookmakers' odds are right, the Euro 2008 trophy is destined to be handed to Mi¬chael Ballack and his team at the end of the month. Form and favoritism, however, do not always work out. The new tournament starts in Switzerland and ends in Austria. Be¬tween now and June 29, there are 31 matches in 8 cities, a million tickets have been sold, and billions of viewers around the world will watch on TV. No one is guessing the amount of money that will be wagered in online casinos, but it is likely to exceed the national budget of the United States! Posted on: June 11, 2008
