Tracking all the biggest, most notable and most fun Super Bowl LIX bets
A one-stop shop for all the Chiefs-Eagles Super Bowl LIX bets you need to know
Super Bowl LIX will be the biggest wagering event in U.S. sports betting history, as estimates put the amount that will be bet on Chiefs-Eagles at over $1.5 billion across the 38 states with legal sports betting in the country.
“We opened Chiefs -1.5, which is still where we’re sitting,” Thomas Gable, sportsbook director at The Borgata in Atlantic City told me this week. “I was a little surprised because we sit in Eagles country and always get heavy action on them, but when we went live right after the AFC Championship Game, all of the initial bets were on Chiefs and the over before we took any Philadelphia money. It’s balanced out since then and there has been decent two-way action.”
We saw multiple bets of $1 million or greater for last year’s Super Bowl, and I expect there to be several more made for this year’s game. I’ll be covering them all in this file up until kickoff.
I’m also keeping a running list behind the pay wall of bets that respected handicappers have made on the Super Bowl and I’m planning several Substack Lives next week with respected handicappers — which will be available to paid subscribers — to talk about their Super Bowl wagers and betting strategy.
Be sure to check out these articles from Patrick Everson and Todd Dewey on what Super Bowl LIX props the sharps were betting on opening night at the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook. It’s a fun night every year.
If you’re interested in advertising on my Substack, my DMs are open on X. Reach out and let’s have a conversation!
