2010 WINTER OLYMPICS IN VANCOUVER GOLD MEDAL BETTING TIPS
There is plenty of excitement set to unfold at Vancouver 2010 and we have some very stiff competition in terms of the medal betting and overall medals won odds. Betting Choice is going to be previewing the chances of a number of different countries and also profiling the odds for all the top events once they’re available. It’s going to be a great event and a really exciting opportunity for betting.
The odds on most medals won at Vancouver 2010 are quite competitive among the top countries. There looks to be about four or five countries that are especially strong and will likely constitute your top 5 barring some type of minor miracle for a nation with a lower profile.
As it currently stands, the big five are Germany, Canada, the USA, Norway and Russia. These are your top 5 nations and they’re all trading at competitive prices. For the most gold medals won at the 2010 Olympics, you’re looking at 2.2 for Germany, 3.25 for Canada, 4.75 for the USA while Norway trades at 5.5. Russia is listed at 9.0 to win the most gold medals. Germany looks a very dangerous country in sliding sports and other alpine sports, so if they can drop a few golds in the bobsleigh in particular, then Canada could be well-poised to pip them. It’s important to remember that Canada has never won a gold medal at a Winter Olympics held in Canada.
In addition to the gold medal betting, you can also back which country wins the most bronze medals and silver ones as well. For silver medals, Germany are listed at 2.75 while Canada is at 3.5 with the USA at 4.0. Norway trades at 5.5 while Russia is listed at 7.0. For Bronze medals it is very tightly-packed. Germany are listed at 3.25 with Canada at 3.75. USA trades at 4.0 while Norway is at 6.5. Russia is at 7.0 while upstart China are well-priced at 11.0.
In terms of the total medals won at the 2010 Olympics, you have Germany listed at 2.2, Canada trading at 3.25, USA at 4.75, Norway at 5.5 and Russia listed at 9.0.
