Get bettor odds on your bets with odds boosts and enhanced prices

Many of the top sports betting sites have given their bettors the chance to win more money with their bets through promotions. This is usually done through profit boosts or increased winnings. For profit boosts and increased winnings promotions, sports bettors can receive more money on their winning bets. Sportsbooks will typically give bettors anywhere from 25% to 100% more money for a successful bet. But these promotions aren’t offered often.

Another way sportsbooks have given their bettors a chance to win more money from bets is with odds boosts or enhanced prices. Odds boosts and enhanced prices are somewhat self-explanatory. Sportsbooks give their bettors longer — or better — odds for some bets. For example, the Boston Celtics are the betting favourites to win the NBA championship right now on the NBA betting sites. The Celtics have +300 odds on Betway. Those odds, considering the Celtics are the defending champions and won every series in five games or less, right now will be attractive to some bettors. An odds boost will make the Celtics’ odds even more attractive, giving bettors a chance to bet on the Celtics at +400, +500, or more.

Betway boosts

Betway’s boosts are easy to find and have their own page. Bettors can find the boosts by scrolling through the list of sports on the homepage under all sports. The sportsbook offers boosts for more than one sport. Right now, bettors will find boosts for golf, the CFL, and tennis. One of the boosts is Robert MacIntyre to finish in the top 10 at the Scottish Open at +500. This is a solid example of why a boost can be useful.

The sportsbook is taking bets for top 10 finish at the Scottish Open for a ton of golfers in the golf section. MacIntyre’s odds are shorter there. MacIntyre is at +400 to finish top 10 if you take the bet in the golf section. Another option is for the Montreal Alouettes, Winnipeg Blue Bombers, and British Columbia Lions all to win at +210. There are two choices for tennis currently.

BetVictor’s enhanced prices

Bettors can get better odds on BetVictor with enhanced prices. The enhanced prices are not as easy to find as Betway’s boosts. Bettors will need to head to a sport that they are hoping to place bets on to find the enhanced prices. Once there, bettors need to click on enhanced prices near the top of the page. Enhanced prices aren’t always available for every sport, so bettors will need to check the site throughout the week to find them.

Right now, BetVictor is offering enhanced prices for tennis. There are a ton of options to choose from. For Monique Barry vs Yuka Hosoki, the enhanced prices are for Yuka Hosoki to win the match at +320. The original odds are +300. For Yu Zhang vs Yan Bai, the enhanced prices are for Yu Zhang to win the match at +600. The original odds are +500.

Bet99 Boosts

The boosts on Bet99 can be found on the homepage and under the specials section. Bet99 has daily boosts and Canadian boosts. The daily boosts change often, so check the sportsbook throughout the week to find something that is attractive to you. The daily boosts and Canadian boosts aren’t the same. For the Canadian boosts, Bet99 is currently offering Brooks Koepka 1st round leader - dead heat rules apply at +2250 and Bryson DeChambeau 1st round top American = dead heat rules apply at +475. For daily boosts, Bet99 has Wimbledon specials. C. Alcaraz and J. Paolini to win their semifinals at +125 and E. Rybakina to have 1st break and to win in straight sets at +100 are two options.
