Online bookmaker Sportsbet have taken a stance against the heavily backed and favoured Queensland Maroons team by offering punters massive odds of $3 for them to take out Game 1 of the 2014 State Of Origin series.
The Maroons are as short as $1.45 with most bookmakers across the country so this represents massive value if you think the Queenslanders can get the job done.
On Sportsbet’s website Queensland are the $1.45 favourites with NSW at the quote of $2.85 which is massive odds in what is a two horse race but when you look at the past few years there is no surprise with QLD being dominant.
We have checked out the offer and below are the guidelines.
Then:
1. Click the ‘QLD $3.00’ button above and register a New Account
2. Once you’ve created a New Account, your bet slip will be prefilled with QLD at the market price (not promotional price).
3. Place your 1st Bet on QLD to win at the market price via the prefilled bet slip.
4. If QLD win, you’ll be paid out at market price straight away and you’ll be topped up an additional amount to reflect the $3.00 price within 24 hours.
