Sports betting is big business all over the world and the Tour de France is a big play. Way back on April Foll's Day, I posted some early betting lines for the 2010 Tour.

The bets were few, but things have firmed up as the horses near the gate.
...and the odds are:
To win:
Alberto Contador 4/7
Andy Schleck 19/2
Lance Armstrong 64/5
Ivan Basso 25/1
Bradley Wiggins 25/1
Green Jersey points winner:
Mark Cavendish 9/4
Thor Hushovd 6/1
Tyler Farrar 13/2
That's the line as of today at one site. I'm not much of a betting man, but I believe that the smart money is usually a fair predictor of results. Of course, the smartest money stays home and there's always some just plain crazy money out there!
