Soccer Betting Lines

03/30/2009 - London, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - American business tycoon Stan Kroenke has increased his stake in Arsenal to just over 20 percent after purchasing further shares from fellow director Danny Fiszman.

The Gunners board have acted together to try and prevent a possible takeover of the club by Alisher Usmanov's Red & White Holdings.

Fiszman commented: "I am pleased that Stan Kroenke has made a further substantial commitment to the club by acquiring approximately a third of my holding.

"Stan's long-term commitment to sport in general and football in particular has been well documented.

"I am therefore delighted that he has shown this desire to deepen his ties with Arsenal.

Kroenke himself added: "After having been invited to join the board last year, I am delighted to be able to increase my shareholding in Arsenal.

"I will continue to work closely with my board colleagues to maintain the stable environment in which the club operates and to preserve the self- sustaining business model enjoyed by the club."

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.

MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.

Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.

Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.

After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.

Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.

Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.

If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.

Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
