I'm always on the lookout for a property doing something innovative when it comes
to wagering on sports. David Dandrea, sportsbook supervisor at the Rio has come
up with an interesting parlay card. He has devised a total season parlay card
over/under total wins proposition that enables tourists and locals to have action
on NFL teams for the season.
All teams are being offered on the parlay cards.
Totals are subject to change at any time.
These cards are also available at Harrahs Properties in Las Vegas, Laughlin,
Reno, and Harvey's Tahoe.
Here is a sampling:
Team - Total
St. Louis Rams: 11 ½
Green Bay Packers: 10 ½
San Francisco 49ers: 10 ½
Chicago Bears: 8 ½
New York Jets: 8 ½
San Diego Chargers: 7 ½
New York Giants: 7 ½
Dallas Cowboys: 6 ½
Detroit Lions: 5 ½
Houston Texans: 4 ½
Wins - Pays
4 for 4 - 12 for 1
5 for 5 - 23 for 1
6 for 6 - 45 for 1
7 for 7 - 90 for 1
8 for 8 - 180 for 1
9 for 9 - 360 for 1
10 for 10 - 720 for 1
There are a great deal of football annuals and fan magazines coming out that
are highlighting the upcoming season. Some are strictly for the fans while others
are geared to the football bettor. In some of the fan magazines you can pick
up some good information that will help you handicap the NFL and college game.
For the sports bettor a few of the very best periodicals that are available
are:
The Gold Sheet Football Preview - An excellent overview of the up-coming season.
Highlighting college and NFL. The Gold Sheet has been the football bettors best
friend since 1957. 1 800 798 4653
Pointspread Playbook - Al O'Donnell's yearly mini-masterpiece that highlights
the NFL and is a great find for total players. It even comes with a money-back
guarantee! 1 847 398 7508
Phil Steele's College Preview and NFL Football Preview - Phil is a meticulous
researcher. His annuals are among the very best published that you'll find anywhere.

As Always
Good Luck!
