WC 2006 - how big will it be for the books?

[Terris]

I personally cant wait for the biggest sports event of all (at least thats my impression) to start

How much action will the offshore books get in your opinion?
I believe it should be a *lot*, and am really looking forward to the line movements at pinny hehe.
Several games every day, and the finals should be a bigger event than the superbowl - world wide.

Also heres a tip: bet that germany wont win it on pinny at -880, the team sucks so bad it aint funny lol. Specially the defense.
Should be free money.

Someone from Pinnacle said it would be bigger than the Super Bowl and the NCAA tourney combined. I was skeptical at first but, on further consideration, it's a big world out there so it's probably true.

SB and NCAA is only USA related.
WC is the world, Europe, Latin America, Asia and USA inclusive, of course it's way bigger.

It is funny ... comparing events which mean almost nothing to everyone outside North America to an event which captivates the entire world (possibly except North America). Which one is bigger? Last time I looked the rest of the world was bigger than North America.

I cant help keep thinking ... World Cup .. world Series ... world Cup .. World Series.

Yep, its a hard one to call i think.

Huge;especially for European based books.

Olympic games is the biggest sport event, but, WC is by far the biggest betting event.Soccer is the king of sports.
