the Gambling Wiz

Internet betting on sports is now the largest form of sports gambling. It used to be that you had to go to a live casino, place your bet, and then patiently wait for the outcome of the game. Then you collected by either going to the cashier window, or mailing the ticket in from out of town. This was fun, but very inconvenient.

Now with Internet Betting, you can place sports bet from your own home, just minutes before the game starts. All sports betting sites will have the lines and odds up the day that the games are taking place. For sports such as football, the lines will be up at the beginning of the week, and it is recommended to place your bets as early as possible because the lines may change according to the way people are betting.

Internet Betting on Sports
Many sites will also give you a chance to do some internet betting on props. Props are little statistics that will happen during a particular game. For example, you can bet on which team will score first, or if the total score will be odd or even. I have even see props that allow you to bet "heads" or "tails" on the coin flip at the beginning of a game.

The bigger a game is, the more props it usually has. The Superbowl had so many props that you might get dizzy just trying to decipher them all. Some sports betting sites will let you bet on things other than sports as well. There are bets on who will be the next president, the next James Bond, and if Britney Spears will get married this year.
