Olympic betting Aug 07

London Summer Olympics are more than halfway through. Yet, there are plenty of events left to bet on.

Usain Bolt (JAM) didn't disappoint. He won the gold medal in 100 m sprint. Also, Andy Murray (GBR) made the British punters and fans explode in joy after defeating Roger Federer (SUI) at Wimbledon courts. The Olympic gold medal in tennis finally went to Britain.

Betway, Pinnacle Sports, and BetVictor sportsbooks provide comprehensive Olympic betting platforms on a variety of sports.

Meanwhile, Olympic team sports are entering final phases. Sports such as field hockey and handball, while not popular everywhere, have many fans worldwide. Equestrian events are also of interest to many and British tend to do well in these, so the public in the UK is watching closely.

Betway sportsbook offers bets on Olympic field hockey where bets on Dutch women's team winning gold stand at 5/4. Wagers on China can be placed at 11/4, while betting on Australia carries 18/1 odds.

At Pinnacle Sports, equestrian sports punters can bet on Team GB to win gold in dressage for 1.526 odds. An opposite bet (no gold medal) stands at 2.71.

Olympic handball punters also have a venue to place their stakes. At BetVictor betting on Croatia to win a gold medal in men's handball has 2/1 odds. Bets on Denmark stand at 4/1, while wagering on Iceland to win a gold medal has a large 7/1 payout should that happen.

JackpotFinder's approved sportsbooks Betway, Pinnacle Sports, and BetVictor offer a wide coverage of Olympic sports with mobile and live betting enabled.
