Online Casinos Prepare for Super Bowl Onslaught

By Brian Chan on January 24, 2010  Email it!    Print Version

Play Slots at Rushmore Casino! LAS VEGAS, NEVADA -- With the conclusion of today's NFL conference championships, online casinos will be getting ready for the second-biggest sports gambling event, the Super Bowl. Only soccer's World Cup generates more gaming interest around the world than the NFL game.

Indianapolis is listed as a 4.5 point favorite over the New Orleans Saints. The two teams are the top two seeds from the regular season, the first time the NFL playoffs have yielded such a combination since 1993.

The Colts fell behind early in their match with the upstart New York Jets, but likely MVP Peyton Manning deciphered the Jets' defenses and began moving the ball easily in the second half. The Colts finished the game by scoring an unanswered 24 points to win 30-17.

The Saints barely edged Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings in a thriller. Momentum shifted back and forth as the Vikings came out strong to score two touchdowns on its first two possessions, only to see the Saints tie it by the half and take leads in the second half. Only a late blunder by Favre in throwing a key interception permitted the Saints to advance in overtime, 31-28.

The two teams will meet in Miami in two weeks to decide this year's NFL champion. Until then, look for proposition bets and game lines to be frequently updated at all online gambling sites.
