CFL Picks: Grey Cup Odds and Betting Predictions
by T.O. Whenham - 11/20/2012
I preview a lot of games every year, but this one is more special than most. I can see the home field of the Calgary Stampeders, McMahon Stadium, from my office window. It is close enough that I can stumble home with ease no matter how many strong Canadian beers I have had during the game — something I have proven more than once. These are my hometown boys.

by T.O. Whenham - 8/7/2012
The Olympic Games are nearing the home stretch, but that doesn’t mean that we are running out of good betting opportunities. In fact, some of the more interesting events from a betting perspective are still to come. Here are five events that stand out to me:
Usain Bolt vs. Yohan Blake Olympic Props Odds and Predictions
by Alan Matthews - 8/1/2012
With all due respect to the Michael Phelps-Ryan Lochte duel, the great story of 17-year-old American swimmer Missy Franklin and the U.S. men’s basketball team laying waste to every team in its path, the biggest and most-anticipated single event in the 2012 London Olympics is the men’s 100-meter dash to anoint the fastest man on earth.

Every four years some of the world’s greatest athletes come together to compete in a myriad of sporting events that have come to be known as the Summer Olympics. Starting this weekend, they will gather in London, England for the 2012 Summer Games.
London Olympics Men’s and Women’s Tennis Odds and Betting Picks
by Alan Matthews - 7/13/2012
Much like in golf, there is usually a lull of at least a few weeks in tennis following a Grand Slam tournament before all of the big names reconvene at the next big event. And that lull is usually a bit longer after Wimbledon because that tournament comes so closely on the heels of the French Open.

The Olympics are just around the corner, and now that the American basketball team has been named I’m itching to see some basketball action. Here’s a look at some interesting futures odds for the 12-team tournament, which tips off in London on July 29 (all betting odds are from Bovada):
World Series of Poker Odds and WSOP Betting Predictions
by T.O. Whenham - 7/6/2012
The World Series of Poker, a month and a half of high-stakes poker action in Las Vegas, winds down starting on Saturday when the epic Main Event gets underway. That’s where literally thousands of people pay $10,000 each for a shot at winning it all — millions of dollars and fame in the poker world. The Main Event is the biggest event on the poker calendar, though it has been muted somewhat this year since Antonio Esfandiari just won more than $18 million in the richest poker tournament ever — a $1 million buy-in event that finished on Tuesday.
2012 Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest: Odds and Predictions
by T.O. Whenham - 7/2/2012
As a Canadian I don’t celebrate the Fourth of July, but a lot of what you all do down there to celebrate — barbecues, parties, fireworks and fun — sounds great to me. In fact, this week I’ll be jealous as you do that while I sit in my office and work like any Wednesday.
2012 Tour de France Predictions and Betting Odds
by T.O. Whenham - 6/28/2012
It’s going to be a bit of a strange Tour de France this time around. Lance Armstrong is in the second year of his retirement. Alberto Contador is serving a doping suspension. Andy Schleck is out with an injury. There is still no shortage of talent, but the biggest names in recent editions of the race are not going to be there. That just makes things more interesting from a betting perspective.

2012 Indy 500 Odds and Betting Predictions
by T.O. Whenham - 5/25/2012
IndyCar racing is just a shadow of what it once was. The Indy 500 is still a magical race, though, so even people who don’t care about the sport most of the year will be interested in who drinks the milk on Sunday afternoon.
2012 World Hockey Championships Betting Advice and Predictions
by T.O. Whenham - 5/9/2012
The 2012 World Hockey Championships are underway in Finland and Sweden right now. We are almost halfway through the preliminary rounds, but the new format they have adopted is so ridiculously drawn out that it’s only now starting to be worth paying attention to.

CFL Handicapping: Grey Cup Predictions and Betting Odds
by T.O. Whenham - 11/23/2011
From the window of my home office I can see a CFL stadium. I’d take the NFL, or especially college football, any day over my home league, but I can’t help but be intimately familiar with the quirks and charms of our national undertaking.
Lots of Sports Handicapping Opportunities in the Summer
by Vegas Sports Informer - 7/13/2011
The dog days of summer are here, and for the sports gamblers these days are long and boring. You can go out and spend your money on baseball betting and maybe, just maybe, have a winning MLB season, or you can try and handicap the other “fringe” sports on the betting board. I’m not saying that you can’t make money betting on baseball, but I want to point out there are other sports that can make your summer a bit richer.
CFL Picks: Montreal Alouettes at Saskatchewan Roughriders Odds
by David Schwab - 7/7/2011
Montreal knows all too well how close these two teams are to one another after beating the Roughriders in the past two CFL title games by a combined four points. They also met twice in the regular season last year, with Saskatchewan pulling out a 54-51 overtime victory as a 3.5-point home underdog on opening day. The total went way ‘over’ the 54-point totals line. The Alouettes evened the score five weeks later with a 30-26 victory as a seven-point home favorite. The total stayed ‘under’ the 60-point line this time.
2011 Tour de France Odds and Betting Predictions
by T.O. Whenham - 7/5/2011
Much to my surprise, I love the Tour de France. I never used to pay it any attention at all, but I tuned in a few years ago for the first time when drawn to watching Lance Armstrong after my mother was diagnosed with cancer. I was hooked, and now I don’t miss a second of it. I know that there all sorts of issues with drugs and the like, but I just don’t care. These guys are incredibly freakish athletes, and the sport is just ridiculously packed with strategy, intrigue and drama. Great stuff.

This eating contest has been going since July 4, 1916! The hot dog eating contest has been big for the betting public since ESPN has been showing it live.
