Soccer Betting Lines

12/15/2008 - Edinburgh, Scotland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Hibs midfielder Filipe Morais has been fined $765 after pleading guilty to an assault charge.

The 23-year-old Portuguese star admitted to kicking Robert Brown's head while he lay on the ground following an argument between the two men at Maxims casino in Edinburgh three months ago.

Solicitor George More, defending, said Morais was being 'pestered' by Mr. Brown and lashed out 'in frustration' after being provoked.

"Young footballers are quite often harassed or picked on or spoken to when they go out and my client went out that evening for a drink with a friend," said Mr. More.

"My client kicked out when he was down as an act of frustration because the last part of his evening had been utterly spoiled by this man."

Morais has already been fined $1,220 by Hibs for being out on a night before a match and is expected to be docked a further two weeks wages' for the assault.

Stanley Cup betting

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.

The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.

MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.

Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
