Nyquist Drops Put of Belmont Stakes With a 102 fever

October 28th, 2019 Belmont Stakes Betting

NyquistExaggerator has officially become the new odds-on horse betting favorite to win the Belmont Stakes after it has been reported that Nyquist will skip the race as a result of illness. Looking back on the Kentucky Derby winner’s run, it always seemed rather unfair that he was constantly and negatively compared to last year’s Triple Crown champion American Pharoah. However, in light of this new development, coupled with Nyquist finishing the Preakness Stakes in third place, it appears as if this horse was doomed to not a second more than his 15 minutes of fame – but since a horse year is equal to 6 1/2 human years, then 15 minutes would equal… well, you get  the idea.

Rory McIlroy skipping 2016 Olympics

October 28th, 2019 Olympic Sports Betting

Rory McIlroy skips Rio OlympicsIt’s been 112 years since the last time golf was seen in the Olympics.  Golf betting  fans are getting excited for what’s coming… or not.  They might have to see one less star on the field, perhaps the most important one, as Rory McIlroy is considering not going.   It’s not because of the golf betting odds, it’s because healthcare officials are saying that the Zika virus in Brazil may turn into a “full-blown global health disaster” and it seems he rather play it safe.  The 4-time championship winner moves golf betting lines easily, but this time might be the exception. Rory admits he was looking forward to the Olympics, but he is putting his future before the gold.  His engagement to Erica Stoll and the possibility of starting a family is what may stop him from going.  The Zika virus is linked to births defects and other conditions.

Novak Djokovic ‘not obsessed with winning French Open’

October 28th, 2019 Tennis Betting

Novak Djokovic favorite to win Roland GarrosThe Serb is usually the man to bet on tennis, with the only possible exception being the French Open. He insists that he is not obsessed with winning Roland Garros, and it’s just as well because he has lost all three finals he has played in Paris, including the last two years. Djokovic is going into his 12th attempt to win, and he would set a record for the most attempts taken to win the title if he finally pulls it off. It would surpass the likes of Roger Federer and Andre Agassi, who both won the event at the 11th try. Goran Ivanisevic holds the Open era Grand Slam record of requiring 14 attempts before winning Wimbledon in 2001.

October 28th, 2019 Live NBA Betting Lines

Raptors tie series 2-2The possibility for an online betting upset came into fruition last night as the Toronto Raptors wagged their fingers (literally!) at the Cavaliers and said: “Not in our house”. This means that the series is going to six games at least and that Jurassic Park will remain open for business for said crucial game at Toronto. DeMar DeRozan and Kyle Lowry combined for 67 points, and pretty much demonstrated that they are up to the challenge and are not going to let Cleveland walk into the NBA Finals so easily.

Lightning Delivers Sweet Chin Music to Penguins

Lightning deliver sweet chin music to Penguins and HBKFans betting on hockey can eagerly await a crucial game 6 where it is do or die for the Penguins, after the Lightning put them at the edge of the abyss.

Much like when Shawn Michaels did to Bret Hart at Wrestlemania XII, the Tampa Bay Lightning delivered Sweet Chin Music to the Pittsburg Penguins at overtime in game 5, leaving them one win away from the Stanley Cup Finals. Adding insult to injury, the Penguins had invited the original Heartbreak Kid himself to attend the game. Michaels was in attendance wearing a Penguins jersey, after Pittsburg fans invited him to witness the HBK line of Carl Hagelin, Nick Bonino, and Phil Kessel, it all seemed like a celebration that came crashing down when Tyler Johnson scored after just 53 seconds of overtime. The Lighting now gets the series back at Tampa, looking to seal the deal.
