(BSNS WIRE) Betmaker.com Responds to Huge Demand for Proposition Bets
Business Editors SAN JOSE, Calif. & COSTA RICA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 5, 2004-- It seems sports enthusiasts and recreational bettors are no longer satisfied with traditional betting lines. With information so widely available on every aspect of sports events, the betting public are clamoring for proposition bets. For those not in the know, a proposition bet is a bet on a specific aspect of a game or event: number of runs in a game, which team will score first, certain teams making the playoffs, who will win an MVP award and so on. But proposition bets aren't just related to mainstream sports. Betmaker.com is offering proposition bets, or "props" as they are called in the industry, on all sorts of events: from politics, to court cases, to the 2004 Olympics. In response, online gaming leaders such as Betmaker.com, post hundreds, if not thousands, of proposition bets daily. Betmaker.com Marketing Director, Sean Jameson, explained, "The goal of any business is to meet the demands of consumers and Betmaker.com takes this mantra as seriously as any Fortune 500 company. In the last few months, many customers have been asking us for more types of bets. In fact, the rise in popularity of prop betting is occurring across all sports as players become more aware of the competitive nature (and excellent odds) in sports like NASCAR, tennis, sailing and other events that have never been considered popular in the wagering community. What's attractive about this kind of betting is that it's up to the player to get the edge on pertinent information and increase his odds of winning the bet. For those looking to make these types of bets, Betmaker.com is the perfect place to go. Not only do we offer the best odds on a great variety of bets, the process of making the bets is easy and hassle-free and it fits right in with the entertainment nature of our customers." 2004 looks to be a promising year. Not only is their Web site getting a new look, they have moved into new offices, focused on their exceptional customer service and have made some big plans for the upcoming season. Jameson said that the excitement is in the air. Everyone is gearing up for the new season and expectations are high.
