Golf Betting Lines

06/18/2007 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Angel Cabrera's unexpected win at the U.S. Open on Sunday produced an expected result.

After shooting a final-round 69 at brutal Oakmont to hold off Tiger Woods and Jim Furyk, the Argentine climbed 24 places to No. 17 in the latest Official World Golf Ranking.

Woods and Furyk, while remaining No. 1 and No. 3 in the rankings, both enhanced their positions by sharing runner-up status. Woods extended his lead on second-ranked Phil Mickelson, while Furyk closed the gap from the other side.

Following Woods, Mickelson and Furyk in the rankings were Adam Scott, Ernie Els, Vijay Singh, Henrik Stenson, Geoff Ogilvy, Luke Donald and Padraig Harrington, who filled positions 4-10.

Singh moved up a spot to sixth, bumping Stenson to seventh, while Harrington flip-flopped positions with Retief Goosen for the third consecutive week, knocking him from the 10th spot.

Goosen was trailed by Sergio Garcia, Masters champion Zach Johnson, Rory Sabbatini, Trevor Immelman, Paul Casey, Cabrera, Justin Rose, K.J. Choi and David Toms to round out the top 20.

Behind Cabrera, Rose parlayed a nice showing at Oakmont into a one-spot bump to No. 18, while Choi dropped two places to 19th. Toms was up one place to No. 20, and Stewart Cink and Charles Howell III both fell out of the top 20.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.

MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.

Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.

Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.

After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.

Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.

Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.

If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.

Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
