Making smart wagers on car races

By John Bennet


NASCAR is a very popular sport, drawing thousands of fans on just about every race.

Racing of cars draws its history back to the 19th century. The foremost race took place in Paris, France back in the year 1894. That sport quickly spread to the United States The United States first race took place in Illinois and took the winner 10 hours to complete the race.

William France, Senior founded NASCAR on 21 February, 1949.The first race took place at Daytona Beach, where they been racing ever since. In those days, stock cars not part of the races, simply because the manufacturers were not able to produce an accident to keep up with post-World War II demand.The first NASCAR race outside the United States was held in Canada.The race took place at Stanford Park, Ontario, on the 1st of July 1952. These days, NASCAR is well known to many people with thousands of people attending these races

NASCAR knocked off the NHL out of the fourth position as a major sport Like most major sports, gambling has become a major part of that industryThe biggest reason is the ease in gambling on NASCAR.

Currently there are three different bets that a gambler can make on a NASCAR race.The first one is a bet on a particular driver to win the raceThe second is that the driver will place in the top three. Finally, the last bet is that a particular driver will beat another driver. Moneyline odds lists most of the arts.As an example, depending on the lines, every $10 bet on particular driver might yield $20. Another example is where you might get $70 after betting on another driver using $10.

Other races may have an entry named a field. The field has other drives that are not the ones listed in the sports books These particular drivers are not good bets.

Obviously, the odds will be lower. When you're betting on a driver to finish in the top three.That's because the sports book must pay out three winning bets, as opposed to just one. That would depend on how they are listed. Take for example Jeff Gordon is listed at -140, the gambler would have to risk $14 so as to gain $10. A gambler will have to risk $13 in order to gain $10 if he wishes to play on Jeff Burton who is listed at +100 to win the race.

Betters can get used to the system fast s it is quite easy. This means that more people will be betting on NASCAR. As you can see, there are plenty more reasons you should go to Las Vegas or pay a visit to any legal betting organizations.
