Tour de France Odds: Avoiding the Favorites at SBG Global

November 30, 2010 By Smith

Cycling

The Tour de France odds that typically attract the most action are the Tour de France betting lines for the top few racers. In other words, a large portion of the sports betting on the 2009 Tour de France lines will be on riders such as Alberto Contador, Lance Armstrong, Cadel Evans, and Andy Schleck. However, by looking beyond these Tour de France betting lines and examining some of the underdog racers, online betting fans can often find some of the best value on the online sportsbook betting boards.

The Tour de France lines  for riders like Contador, Armstrong, Evans, and Schleck are appealing because these favored riders are extremely accomplished and online sports betting enthusiasts know the riders have a very reasonable chance of winning the race. Nevertheless, one possible drawback of wagering on such Tour de France betting lines is that sometimes these sports book lines are inflated because so many bettors are eager to wager on the racers. Consequently, sportsbook gamblers should not be reluctant to carefully consider Tour de France betting lines for riders who are considered genuine underdogs in the race. For instance, the 2009 Tour de France lines feature dozens of such accomplished and up-and-coming riders, including Ivan Basso, Andreas Kloden, Roman Kreuziger, Michael Rogers, Robert Gesink, Samuel Sanchez, Kim Kirchen, Antonio Colom, and Francisco Pellizotti. It is true that none of these riders can boast the same level of talent as riders like Contador, but these underdog riders still have the skills necessary to vie for first place.

Moreover, the Tour de France odds reflect the underdog status of these riders. To wager on the Tour de France lines for a rider like Contador one must accept that, even if Contador wins, the payout is going to be quite small. By wagering on the Tour de France odds for an underdog rider, on the other hand, one can receive a massive payout from a winning wager. Additionally, because the payouts from such Tour de France lines are so large, one can easily wager on the Tour de France odds for a handful of underdog riders. This way, one can significantly increase the chances of placing a winning wager, and the Tour de France lines are set such that if any single wager wins then the overall winnings will be much greater than the cost of placing a handful of wagers. This is in great contrast with wagering on Contador’s Tour de France lines , for instance, because his Tour de France lines are set such that it would be illogical to place a wager on any rider in addition to Contador.
