The "sharps" have spoken and they unanimously believe that the New Orleans Saints will win the 2010 Super Bowl.
Bookmaker.com, who for over 20 years has built up a reputation for catering to the professional sports bettors, had the Saints getting the most betting action heading into Super Bowl Sunday.
"The sharp sports bettors aren't always right but they study these matchups with a fine tooth comb," says Don Shapiro of Gambling911.com. "They also weigh information that may be crucial to the end result of the game."
And for the sports bettor, sharp or recreational, it's not about who wins but rather who covers.
Bookmaker.com had the line at Colts -5 ½ going into Sunday morning. Some of the recreational shops moved the line back up to -6. Gambling911.com even saw a few -4's.
"It's been one of the most unstable lines we've ever seen with a Super Bowl," claims Shapiro.
Part of the reason involves uncertainty surrounding Indianapolis' top pass rusher Dwight Freeney. Thus far he has failed to practice and that has the oddsmakers and bettors alike believing - at the very least - he won't be at 100 percent.
Bookmaker.com was the first to post a line on the 2010 Super Bowl, opening at Indianapolis -4 ½. Be sure to claim your 20 percent cash bonus when joining. Use Bonus Code GAMBLING911. Betting restrictions apply.
