World Cup 2010 betting expected to cross £3billion

The biggest sports extravaganza of the year, FIFA World Cup 2010 is set to be the biggest sports betting event in the history. With several online gambling websites preparing for the event, it is expected to show dealings of billions of British Pounds all over the world.

According to sources it has been reported that punters from all over the world will bet more than £3billion on the most talked about sporting event of the year, making it the biggest gambling event in the history. As per the expectations of analysts and experts, this huge amount is to be spent on legal bets during the World Cup 2010 from all over the globe. However, a similar amount is expected to be spent on illegal bets too, as per the thinking of industry insiders.

The estimate of total amount of bets is however somewhat different. Experts have made estimation that £1.5 billion will be swirled in the tournament. So, it is prudent for the gamblers to check out the latest news, odds and analysis, straight from South Africa, starting from 11th June till the end of the tournament on July 11. European punters are expected to have an advantage over South Africa since they have been naturally aided by a one-hour time difference. Due to this, the European fans staying at home will have plenty of extra time to place their bets.

The huge anticipation is also based on the ongoing smooth progress of the tournament. Lorien Pilling, spokesperson of British-based Global Betting and Gaming Consultants has commented that the World Cup tournament of 2010 will be a high power one as the enthusiasm of the football lovers are high due to qualification of all the major teams. Experts also believe that the developments in the online gambling and betting websites will also play a key factor in boosting the spirit of betting.
