Golf Betting Lines

01/07/2012 - East London, South Africa (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Defending champion Louis Oosthuizen and Tjaart van der Walt are tied atop the leaderboard after Saturday's third round of the Africa Open.

Oosthuizen, the second-round leader and 2010 British Open champion, birdied three of his last four to shoot a six-under 67, while van der Walt, who birdied his first four holes, fired an eight-under 65 Saturday.

The pair finished at 21-under 198 and matched the 2009 54-hole tournament record of James Kingston and Darren Clarke. Oosthuizen and van der Walt are one shot clear of two-time U.S. Open champion Retief Goosen, who carded a seven-under 66 at East London Golf Club.

Danny Willett managed a 65 on Saturday and is fourth at minus-19, followed by Richard Sterne, whose nine-under 64 was not only the low round of day, but it vaulted him to fifth place at 17-under 202.

SPORTS BETTING

NFL Football Betting Online

In terms of sports wagering, the NFL is "the most popular game in town." The explanation behind that is easy.

It is called the "pointspread."

Many years ago, NFL games, as well as the more popular college games, used straight odds as a vehicle for betting. For example, if the Bears were playing the Giants, and it shaped up as a competitive contest, the Bears might be, say, a 7/5 favorite. If they were playing an also-ran, it might be 10/1. Well, there is a point where a line becomes prohibitive, as far as betting the favorite. And who would waste money betting an underdog that has virtually no chance? Such a setup did not contribute to promoting betting action.

But in modern sports betting, a "pointspread" is used.

A NFL pointspreads are exactly that, a pre-established point difference between the two sides that will, for all intents and purposes, create a handicap that evens things out, and in doing so, produces comparable wagering activity on both sides of that proposition. So in lieu of a odds figure in which to bet the team to win outright, the Bears might be a three-point favorite over the New York Giants, and a 17-point favorite over the also-ran. Now that the team that is the underdog can "get" points, there can be equal action on both sides.

In sportsbooks, this is usually done with efficiency by charging the losing bettors 10% extra - in effect, bettors are laying 11/10 on those games. So they are actually betting $110 to win $100. If they lose, they pay the "vig." If they win, they simply collect.

The establishment of the pointspread as the corner stone around which team sports like football can be wagered upon was truly what brought gridiron betting into the stratosphere for online football betting .
