Horseracing Betting Lines

07/17/2010 - East Rutherford, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - One More Laugh, driven by Tim Tetrick, turned the tables on Rock N Roll Heaven to win Saturday's $1 million Meadowlands Pace at The Meadowlands. The three-year-old gelding covered the mile in 1:47 4/5.

Last week in a Meadowlands Pace elimination heat, One More Laugh was second to Rock N Roll Heaven.

Rock N Roll Heaven, driven by John Campbell, set the pace up the backstretch and was closely followed by Kyle Major and half-brother Rockin Image. North America Cup champ Sportswriter broke sharply from the outside post, but was not involved in the early going.

Sent off as the 3-2 favorite, Rock N Roll Heaven took the 10 horse field into the far turn as Rockin Image gained ground on the outside. The two sons of Rocknroll Hanover were first and second coming off the final turn with One More Laugh moving into third.

At the top of the stretch Rock N Roll Heaven was still on the lead. Tetrick put his drive to the outside and quickly cut into the pacesetter's lead. One More Laugh had the last laugh as he drove past Rock N Roll Heaven as the pair approached the wire.

One More Laugh registered a head victory over Rock N Roll Heaven with Valentino finishing third and Rockin Image dropping to fourth. Rounding out the order of finish was I'm Gorgeous, Delmarvalous, Sportswriter, Nova Artist, Fred And Ginger, Kyle Major.

"He's a very nice horse and he never gets tired," noted the winner driver.

One More Laugh is trained by co-owner Ray Schnittker who was making his Meadowland Pace debut. Tetrick earned his second Meadowlands Pace victory. The nation's leading driver previously won the race in 2007 with Southwind Lynx.

Saturday's win was worth $500,000 to put One More Laugh's career bankroll at more than $1.3 million. He has won 12 of 19 lifetime starts.

One More Laugh won the Art Rooney Pace at Yonkers on June 12, but finished seventh two weeks later in the North America Cup at Mohawk. In 2009, the gelding won the Governor's Cup at Harrah's Chester.

One More Laugh paid $8.20, $4.00 and $3.40. Rock N Roll Heaven returned $3.20 and $2.80, and Valentino paid $7.40 to show.

American Idol Betting Season 6 Strategies  

It's that time of year folks.  Betting on American Idol Season 9.  And we have plenty of American Idol Season 6 strategies appearing below.  With the Top 24 finalists revealed, online gambling sites will be offering betting odds on each of them, including MySportsbook.com.

No other “event” has been growing as fast as wagering on American Idol. It has turned into a huge betting event with reasonably high limits and all sorts of profit-making potential for sharp bettors. Last year, MySportsbook.com experienced unprecedented traffic as a result of the American Idol betting craze.

Every week there will be odds to win American Idol, various elimination props and contestant versus contestant match-ups at the MySportsbook.com website.

Whether a fan of America’s top-rated show or watching only because of a wife or girlfriend, here are some of basic strategies to use when betting American Idol.

Odds to Win

There are a few things to consider when looking for the right win bet. First off, remember that this bet is for the long haul. Many people make the mistake of picking the performer who sang the best the previous week. This strategy leads to an underlay situation – betting a price, which is less than what it should be.

All Idol contestants struggle at some point in the competition, so you should always look for value. In last year’s competition alone, two performers who had some of the best performances early in the series were subsequently bet down to low prices - Lisa Tucker and Ace Young. After just a few weeks, Tucker had already been eliminated, while Young quickly became a huge long shot to win America’s largest talent search.

A better strategy is to look for performers who don’t necessarily get the praise from the judges, but show flashes of the talent necessary to go the distance.

Another important thing to remember when betting any contestant to win is the demographic breakdown of the voters, the viewing public and potential future CD purchasers. Unlike sporting events, American Idol is not decided on the field of play – it’s decided by the American public under the guiding influence of the shows producers.

Understand that the great state of Alabama has a mighty edge when it comes to American Idol. 

Therefore, to be successful betting on American Idol, put any personal opinions or prejudices aside and think like the majority of the voting public. Remember that the typical voter is young, female and quite often, Southern.

If a contestant cannot appeal to this demographic, no matter how much talent he or she possesses, they’ll struggle for votes. Looks, demeanor and charisma are extremely important. And it’s no coincidence that every Idol winner so far has hailed from a Southern state.

Elimination Props

Every week MySportsbook.com anticipates offering a prop on who’ll be eliminated from the show each Wednesday night. A suggestion to handicap this is to gauge an overall feel for who’s the least popular contestant left in the competition. Generally the least popular performers have recently appeared in the bottom three and will have been the target of repeated criticism from the judges.

Last year, resources included dialidol.com and votefortheworst.com. Dialidol.com measures the volume of each contestant’s voting line. While by no means a perfect science, it does give a good indication of who is generating votes and who isn’t. Meanwhile, votefortheworst.com is a site that attempts to build support for the worst competitor to keep them in the competition for ‘entertainment’ value. The site has a proven track record of keeping performers around who most feel should have been voted off a long time ago.

Contestant vs. Contestant Match-ups

The best strategy for doing well on match-ups is to assess how close either of the contestants is to being eliminated. If neither is expected to be voted off of the show in the coming weeks, the value is almost always on the underdog. If both are expecting an imminent exit in the near future, the favorite in the match-up might offer value.

Watch for American Idol betting odds on each of the contestants shortly and good luck with these American Idol betting strategies.
