February 3, 2011 (CAP PR Wire) — Intertops Sportsbook favors the Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers (-145) to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers (+125) at Super Bowl XLV in Arlington, Texas on Sunday. The world’s first online sportsbook is offering dozens of betting propositions on the USA’s biggest game of the year, a special $100 deposit bonus and the chance to win $5000 in February.
Intertops bookmakers predict that the leader of the pack Rodgers (+150) is more likely to be named Super Bowl MVP than his Steelers’ counterpart Ben Roethlisberger (+300). Other bets on the quarterbacks include Net Passing Yards and Number of Interceptions.
“Roethlisberger and Rodgers have both been in dominant form this season,” noted an Intertops Sportsbook manager. “Roethlisberger already has two Super Bowl rings, but we expect Rodgers to handle the pressure on his Super Bowl debut.”
The Super Bowl is the biggest single sports betting event of the year and Intertops Sportsbook has dozens of wagering propositions including First Scoring Play, First Touchdown Scorer, Team to Score First, First Turnover, Highest Scoring Half and Quarter, Longest Punt, Longest Field Goal, and Total Tackles Made by AJ Hawk, Charles Woodson, Clay Matthews, Desmond Bishop, James Farrior, James Harrison, Lawrence Timmons, Nick Collins, Ryan Clark and Troy Polamalu.
With the Black Eyed Peas playing at half time, Intertops bookmakers have had some fun naming some special bets after many of their hits. The “Just Can’t Get Enough” bet puts odds on Ben Roethlisberger scoring three or more touchdowns in the first half at +750. The “Rock That Body” offer puts Aaron Rodgers’ chances of being sacked 4 or more times in the first half at +700.
In addition to a comprehensive line-up of Super Bowl betting propositions, Intertops is giving away loads of free money. Between now and Sunday’s kick-off they’re adding 20% (up to $100) to all deposits.
