Olympic Betting Pools, Do They Exist Online?

As most people around the world know by now, the 2012 Summer Olympics starts on Friday, July 27th and ends Sunday, August 12th. This year, the world’s best athletes will be competing in London.

What most people around the world might not know is there are NO Olympic Betting Pools at fantasy sites or on the internet. If you are looking to join an Olympic Betting Pool, you will have to gather a group of friends or co-workers to create your own.

However, the best sportsbooks on the web do offer Olympic betting where you can place wagers on your favorite player, teams, who will beat who, or who will win gold. There are a number of options to choose from and we will help list a few of those options for you, and what sportsbooks we recommend to place those bets.

Best Pick: BetOnline.ag – For sports bettors from the USA, we highly recommend BetOnline.ag for your Olympic wagering needs. BetOnline includes nearly every summer sport, every game/match with great moneylines, spreads and overall odds in general, along with several great futures and prop bets. So, if you are looking place moneyline wagers on the USA basketball team, point spread bets on the Australian field hockey team, or Usain Bolt winning gold in the 200 meters race, BetOnline will fulfill those needs and much more.

Non-US Pick: Bet365.com – For International punters outside the USA this is our recommended betting site is Bet365.com. They pretty much offer the same type of options as BetOnline does, but they have great depositing options, bonuses and betting odds for players outside the USA.

So, if you are looking to join a betting pool for a little fun, get a group of your buddies together. But, if you are looking for something more than that and are a more serious sports bettor looking to make a little extra cash on the side, we highly recommend visiting BetOnline or Bet365.
