The online casino industry is more than thrilled that the Olympics are here. They are offering all kinds of odds for their players on every imaginable sport. With so many to choose from, online casino gamblers will have a tough time figuring out which one they want to bet on – if not all of them. There are many online casinos out there that are ready to take your bet on the Olympics, and Bodog is just one of them.
 
The online casino Bodog is offering betting on skiing, sledding, curling, etc. and you can be a part of the action. Right now the online casino says that the most popular sport to bet on is hockey. Some won’t realize that the Canadians invented hockey and they are considered to be the hands on favorite to win the gold medal. Many think that the United States, Sweden or Switzerland could give them a real run for their money, but as of right now they are still getting the best odds to take it home.
 
There are some people who choose not to bet on the specific sport, and rather turn their attention to the number of medals, or the type of medals that each country will win. Some bet on places like Russia or Germany to do very well as they have more of a snowier climate than the United States does, and because they sponsor their athletes. Even so, the United States consistently performs well and ends up near the top of the medal rankings.
 
Right now Germany is the hands on favorite to take the most medals, with the United States, Canada and Russia coming in behind them. Germany is also getting the best odds of taking home the most gold medals from the games.
