While gymnast Alicia Sacramone has throbbed<\/span> the hearts of Americans and Michael Phelps keeps winning Gold, sharp Olympic gamblers continue to crush the sportsbooks<\/font><\/a>. <\/p>\n

There is still plenty of money to be made and we don’t mean in selling Sacramone<\/span> pictures. Rowing has several events still to be decided with Great Britain<\/st1:PLACE><\/st1:COUNTRY-REGION> the favorite in most events. <\/p>\n

Bookmakers have the following as the heaviest favorites to win their respective Gold Medals (Olympic Betting Odds<\/font><\/a>): Usain<\/span> Bolt of Jamaica<\/st1:PLACE><\/st1:COUNTRY-REGION> is 1\/12 to win the 200 meter in track and field. The men’s 10,000 meters will go to Kenenisa<\/span> Bekele<\/span> of Ethiopia<\/st1:PLACE><\/st1:COUNTRY-REGION> and the 400 meter to Jeremy Wariner<\/span> of the USA<\/st1:PLACE><\/st1:COUNTRY-REGION>. <\/p>\n

The men’s triple jump is more wide open with Philips Idowu<\/span> of Great Britain<\/st1:PLACE><\/st1:COUNTRY-REGION> a more modest 6\/5 favorite. The communist countries will likely get Gold and Silver in the 110 meter hurdles with Dayron<\/span> Robles of Cuba and Liu Xiang<\/span> as near co-favorites. <\/p>\n

The men’s long jump frontrunner is Irving Saladino<\/span> of Panama<\/st1:PLACE><\/st1:COUNTRY-REGION>. Many events are considered wide open, but virtual locks also include Blanka<\/span> Vlasic of Croatia<\/st1:PLACE><\/st1:COUNTRY-REGION> in the women’s high jump and Jamaica<\/st1:PLACE><\/st1:COUNTRY-REGION> in both the women’s and men’s 4×100 relay. <\/p>\n

However, Team USA<\/st1:PLACE><\/st1:COUNTRY-REGION> is a Michael Phelps like favorite to win the men’s 4×400 at 1\/25. <\/p>\n

Either way, the 1\/69 favorite of the OffshoreInsiders.com<\/font><\/b><\/a> staff is Alicia Sacramone <\/p>\n
