In its bid to become the dominant information center for 2006 World Cup betting odds, Gambling911.com will waste no time focusing on this mega global sporting event that proved a cash cow in 2002 even to those Caribbean and Central American bookmakers that market almost exclusively to North American punters.  Indeed, Gambling911.com will become the first ever US-based online gambling news and information site to focus so extensively on the 2006 World Cup.  (bookmark us at www.gambling911.com )

Unlike most sports betting information web sites operating out of Europe and outside of North America, Gambling911.com's stable of bookmakers include the likes of Pinnacle Sports, Sports Interaction and VIPsports.com, all of which plan to offer a wide range of 2006 World Cup betting options in addition to aggressive upfront cash bonuses and - in the case of Pinnacle Sports - reduced vig (for example, bet $104 currently with American football to win $100 instead of the standard $110 to win $100 found at the majority of bookmaker shops). 

Plus Gambling911.com's stable of esteemed bookmakers often feature odds that are quite competitive thanks to "opinionated" bookies, many of whom - to be quite frank - don't have a clue about how to book soccer.  The punter (sports bettor) definitely has an edge here. 

Likewise, Gambling911.com features two prestigious sports betting exchanges: Matchbook.com and BetBug.com.

The World Cup Finals draw took place this week. Argentina odds have since changed from 8.00 to 9.00.  England is now 7.50 from 8.00.  Italy is looking less impressive with odds of 11.00 (that's a change from 9.00).  Odds of Spain winning the 2006 World Cup winning the World Cup have moved up from 15.00 to 13.00.

Spain coach Luis Aragones commented after the 2006 World Cup draw: "It is a good group and we are favourites with Ukraine, but we have to prove that. In general I am definitely satisfied."

Argentina assistant Hugo Tocalli said: "We are not afraid. We have a lot of confidence, we have no fear."

One country whose odds have not changed since October 18, 2005 is Brazil.  The 2006 World Cup betting odds listed at Sports Interaction feature - who would have thunk it? - Brazil as the favorite to win the 2006 World Cup at a price of 3.75 or just slightly under 3 to 1 odds.

Selected as part of Group F with Japan (101.00 odds), Australia (126.00 odds) and Croatia (51.00 odds), this should be a cakewalk for the Brazil team.

Coach Carlos Alberto Parreira: "In technical terms, it's not so strong but it's a group in which there's going to be a lot of physical strength."

Trinidad & Tobago is listed at Sports Interaction with huge payout odds of 1001.00!!!!  Costa Rica dropped from being listed with 251.00 odds to win the 2006 World Cup to 501.00.  The US is now listed with 101.00 odds, down from 51.00.

Costa Rica coach Alexandre Guimaraez said: "We represent four million Costa Ricans and hope to do as well as possible."
