    Betfair probably averaged 100 million a day throughout tourney if you add up all markets and that could be a little low

    when youre talking 1/2 goals and goal lines they are much easier for the books to set than other sports. This explains the lack of line movement

    Countless dollars on overs and favorites, I don't think they give a flying fcuk if sharp bettors can correctly predict unders/underdogs, they make more than enough profit from goal hungry gamblers to cover the sharps and more.

    For every dollar bet on legal sportsbooks there are 10 dollars bet underground on illegal books.

    Sports betting actually has always been more popular in non-USA countries

    Part of that is legal reasons

    I'd say 10-15 billion but that's just a wild guess.
