    Sportsbooks taking a beating from World Cup!
    Through the first five days of the World Cup, bettors have been rolling in the dough while the sports books have taken a beating, as favorites have gone 9-5 on the goal line and the OVER has cashed in 12 of the 14 games.

    “I’ve never seen anything like it,” said LVH SuperBook assistant manager Jeff Sherman. “The kids (parlay bettors) are having a blast, and there really has been no need for handicapping the games – just blindly take the favorite and OVER.”

            I am beginning to feel a little bit sorry for the books. I was reading it has been one of the most disastrous sports event in a decade and its not even half way through. Overs hitting and very few upsets are the main reason. The pundits are flat out killing it

                      When sportsbooks booklet shows up in the mail about the world cup and never on other sports.
                      It shows that the sportsbooks gets the most house edge on soccer.
