Bodog is Back

The world’s best sports bettors have long known that OffshoreInsiders.com is the place for the best free pick and often free picks. Now one of the best sportsbooks is back in the saddle with some of the most accurate live Vegas odds.  

On April 21, 2009, Morris Mohawk Gaming Group officially announced that it had reached an agreement resulting in the settlement of all pending patent litigation against a then defunct supplier company, which also resulted in the return of the world-renowned Bodog.com domain. After much discussion and careful consideration, it was determined that the Bodog.com domain is simply too valuable an asset to be used solely as a geo-targeted redirect. As such, it is with great pride that Morris Mohawk Gaming Group announces the official return of Bodog.com. Bodog.com will once again become the center of operations for the Bodog brand’s United States facing business!

“Gaining ownership of the Bodog.com domain was a moment of immense pride for me, it felt akin to taking ownership of a piece of Bodog’s history,” says Morris Mohawk Gaming Group CEO Alwyn Morris. “As the exclusive licensee of the Bodog brand for online gaming in the United States, we are overjoyed to not only be a part of the return of one of the industry’s most prestigious and recognizable domains, but to also be the driving force behind the brands operation in that market. Bodog.com is back and here to stay!”

Even though the Bodog.com domain will house the brand’s U.S. facing business, the return of the domain will be beneficial for all of the brand’s global licensees as, regardless of a player’s location, going to Bodog.com will automatically redirect that player to the appropriate licensee for their jurisdiction.

The official return of Bodog’s U.S. facing business to the Bodog.com domain is another addition to the growing list of achievements and milestones that’s making 2009 a banner year for the Bodog brand, and one of the brands best years to date. Best of all, the halfway mark of 2009 has only just passed, and there are sure to be more big announcements from the brand before the year is out! Don’t miss a minute of the action, visit Bodog.com.

Lakers-Magic Game 4 Vegas Odds

In Game 3 of the NBA Finals on Tuesday night, Kobe Bryant, who looked tired and mortal, gave new life to the Orlando Magic, who shot a Finals record 63 percent in a 108-104 win over the Los Angeles Lakers. That snapped an 0-for-6 franchise mark in the Finals for Orlando. Bet at Bodog.

Is it a sign of things to come? Bryant and the Lakers have been bouncing back since the start of the postseason. In the pursuit of a 15th NBA crown  they are 6-0 after a playoff loss. They can regain control of the best-of-seven series, but they’d better be careful not to give Orlando any more momentum.

As the Magic showed in Game 3, all you need is a hot night of shooting. During one stretch in the opening half, Orlando made a remarkable 21 of 24 shots.

Can the 2-point favorites at Bodog Magic do it again or will the real Kobe Bryant return and close out Game 4?

 

Mets-Phillies Odds and Betting Line Preview

While Jimmy Rollins continues to struggle, Chase Utley looks to continue his power surge at Citi Field as the Philadelphia Phillies play the decisive game of a three-game set with the New York Mets tonight with the MLB odds saying the Mets are -105 with a total of 9.5.

Utley belted two homers Wednesday night, one of which led off the 11th inning as the Phillies went on to beat the Mets 5-4. He had a solo homer the previous evening in the series opener as Philadelphia lost 6-5.

All three of Utley’s homers in this series have been hit into the right-field corner. He didn’t homer in his last 15 games at Shea Stadium, where the Mets used to play.

Philadelphia may need a big effort from its lineup with Jamie Moyer facing New York. Moyer is 0-1 with a 13.50 ERA in two starts versus the Mets this season.

Tim Redding will take the mound in this series finale for the Mets.  Bet at Bodog now.
