Ron Paul Betting, NFL Favorites Winning Slam Sportsbook.comGambling911.com premier sponsor, Sportsbook.com, reported Friday afternoon that they were slaughtered by all NFL favorites winning on Thanksgiving Day (a mere drop in the bucket for one of online gambling's most successful money makers) while 2008 US Presidential hopeful Ron Paul continued to receive massive amounts of action.
The Ron Paul bet - how much his campaign will raise during an upcoming December 16 money drive - was forced to readjust the OVER/UNDER line from $5 mil to $6 mil on Friday.
"We've had to adjust the line due to volume," a Sportsbook.com representative told Gambling911.com.
Last night, thousands of customers at Sportsbook.com had an extra reason to ‘give thanks’ with the favorites covering impressively. In the opening game Dallas managed to cover by more than twice the spread, mostly down to Tony Romo’s outstanding form and a solid running game. This secured an extra 50% win bonus for the customers who registered for one of the sites Thanksgiving weekend promotions: Spread Supremacy.
Dave Staley, a spokesperson for Sportsbook.com, said "With 75% of our customers backing Dallas, this wasn't the best of starts for the book, we did set out to give our members a little something extra this Thanksgiving, and boy they got stuffed on seconds."
Both of the sites thanksgiving weekend promotions will be running until Monday night, so if you haven’t already registered check them out now before you miss another big payday. Back any of the double digit dogs, or any 10 point favorite ATS, and win 50% more on your bets with the site where everybody bets, Sportsbook.com.
