Super Bowl Betting – Don’t Forget Halftime. People love to bet on Super Bowl action but what they sometimes forget is that wagers can be made at the half.With the game going on and the hoopla with Super Bowl parties, bettors sometimes forget about the halftime wager in Super Bowl betting. Oftentimes the halftime bet can be a great wager, so don’t forget about it this year when you look at the odds at SBG.
Super Bowl Halftime Line
The halftime line will be available a few minutes after the Super Bowl goes to the half. The line is pretty easy to estimate as for the most part the Sportsbooks will just divide the opening line in half and make a few minor adjustments based on the score of the game. The line may also be influenced by what the public bet before the game began as Sportsbooks may not want to be overloaded on one side.
The Hedge
One thing that the halftime wager becomes good for when you bet on Super Bowl odds is a hedge. Gamblers might be able to lock in a profit on the Super Bowl if they bet the halftime line. Let’s say that you took the favorite in the Super Bowl and laid three points. If your team happened to be leading at the half you could take the other side and hedge your bet. Depending upon the score, you might even be able to hedge your bet and hope for a middle. The halftime wager gives you a lot of options that many people forget all about. When you hedge a bet you are really just insuring that you don’t lose any money. You then could have a chance to win not only your original wager but the halftime wager as well and oftentimes it is without risking anything.
Halftime Side and Total
You don’t have to rush your wager with the Super Bowl betting halftime line. Unlike the regular season, there is a longer halftime because of the Super Bowl halftime show. You have plenty of time to look at the side and the total and determine if there is any value in the wager. You also have the chance to consider any hedging opportunities that might exist based on what you bet before the game began.
