Soccer Betting Lines

05/17/2010 - Moscow, Russia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Dick Advocaat is set to be announced as the new coach of Russia, it was confirmed on Monday.

Advocaat surprisingly resigned as Belgium coach last month after he spent just six months on the job, but now he is set to replace Guus Hiddink as Russia's top man.

The 62-year-old Advocaat had two stints in charge of the Dutch national team while also coaching the United Arab Emirates and South Korea.

On the club level, Advocaat has enjoyed spells at Rangers and PSV Eindhoven, in addition to spending three years in Russia with Zenit St Petersburg.

Hiddink helped guide Russia to the semifinals of Euro 2008, but his team failed to qualify for this summer's World Cup in South Africa as they lost a playoff to Slovenia.

Stanley Cup betting

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.

The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.

MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.

Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
