Curling Mixed Doubles Round Robin Standings
Team USA got off to a good start in their round robin Curling Mixed Doubles opener, beating the Olympic Athletes of Russia 9-3. In the same round, Canada fell to Norway 9-6, which is considered a big upset early on. In round two of the tournament, Team USA played Team Canada, losing 6-4 after a furious late-frame rally by the Canadian club. But for that final frame, the US team – composed of siblings Matt and Becca Hamilton – would have started the tourney off 2-0. As it stands now, however, both powerhouse teams are 1-1 so far in the Curling Mixed Doubles round robin.
Interestingly, Team Canada is still on Bovada’s betting boards as the heavy favorite to win the Gold at +150, while Team USA is in 4th place at +600. Right now, that means that the underdog US duo is a serious value bet to emerge victorious, assuming the Hamiltons play to their obvious potential. Brother Matt pointed this out after taking the loss to Canada, saying “We’ve had one bad end out of 15. So fix that and we are going to be a force.” If he’s right, savvy bettors stand to turn a 600% profit betting on Team USA.
The PyeongChang 2018 Winter Olympics Curling Mixed Doubles round robin continues tomorrow (Friday), so be sure to keep tabs on who wins and loses before placing your final bets at legal online sportsbooks like Bovada and Bet365. Of course, there’s real value on the boards right now, so it might make sense to wager sooner than later. LegalGamblingUSA knows these Curling odds are bound to fluctuate dramatically over the course of the tournament.
