Olympic Games- Can I get a line?

[chrisharvard01]

I'm looking for a line to play WHERE the Olympic games will be held.

The commission will vote 10/02.



MADRID +300 would be a play.



Any books offering lines on this?

I wouldn't touch Madrid +300 with a barge pole since:

1) 2012 games are to be held in Europe.

2) Betfair have Madrid at +1200 - 4th out of the 4 finalists.

thanks tacomax

madrid +300 was a personal, projected line-- i didn't have a clue what this line was.. I was suprised to see not even sportsbook has odds on this. and these are the guys that have "the madden curse" odds (only $50 max how f_uckin lame)!

the thing is, other than rio I really don't see anyone else getting this bid! Japan has has had their share of hosting in 64, 72, and 98.

granted Barcelona, Spain had one in 92 but I think it's spain's turn again.

CHIC isn't even sure if they want to ACCEPT a bid to host. The US is out of this race. I would be very suprised to see this on US soil.

if betfair (US restricted) is the only site offering lines on this I will sit this one out

Chicago is the favourite at my bookie

Rio it is

Rio it is

Good call, though. Having a +1200 beating the two favourites and coming second was a good bet.
