Best Prop Bet for Superbowl XLIV: Alternate Odds

This will be the start of a series I will do for Best Bets leading up to the big game in Miami. I am documented and ranked #1 in wagering on the NFL this year!

For this installment of Best bets I am going to focus on alternate odds or special lines wagers for the Superbowl. These lines are prop bets found at many online sportsbooks. For the purpose of this article all of the alternate odds that I discuss can be found atDiamond Sportsbook.

First for those that do not know alternate odd prop bets are exactly what they sound like. Odds that are different from the main ones posted that have a different money line value. This allows the sports bettor to choose the line they want to use based on the team they think will win. The first thing the sports bettor has to do is decide who will win and then from there you can choose your alternate line bet.

If you think the Colts will win look at some of these alternate lines.

(All lines are found at DSI)

Colts -10.5 +180
The odds are a very nice return at almost 2-1 and the Colts have the firepower to cover a number like this. They won both games in the playoffs by more than 10.5 and could take apart this Saints defense.

Colts -14.5 +270
If you like the Colts to win and you think they can cover the 10.5 why not bump it up to the 14.5 and get an even better return of almost 3-1? The superbowls have had their share of blowouts and with this Colts offense the sky is the limit!

If you think the Saints are going to win then these alternate line bets may entice you. (All lines are found at DSI)

Saints -3.5 +280
If you think the Saints are going to win you have to assume it would be by more than 3 points. In that case this wager looks really good. You get almost 3-1 to just have the Saints win by more than a FG.

Saints -7.5 +450
This line is much higher but with returns at almost 5-1 if y9uou think the Saints are going to win it may be worth a play. This team does not settle for FG’s and they will run it up if given the chance.

Regardless of who you think will win the big game putting a wager on the alternate betting lines is a fun way to maximize profit and enjoy the game!
