Bwin Releases New Basketball Betting Service

Bwin, one of the world's biggest online sports books, has devoted a new service devoted purely to basketball of all forms.

The new page has odds on the NBA, World Championships, EuroBasket and plenty of other leagues, with types of bets including money lines, spreads, multi bets and quarter bets.

To mark the move, the online bookmaker has published special rules for basketball bets at Bwin, which can be found on the site.

The launch comes just in time for the FIBA World Championships, beginning in Turkey.

Bwin has odds on all the results, including the winner of each of the four groups (each of which have six teams).

Group A and Group C are shaping up as the hardest to pick. Serbia, 2.00, and Argentina, 2.50, are set to fight it out in Group A, while Group C appears to be a three-way contest: Greece, 2.30, Turkey, 2.50, and Russia, 5.00

Three-time champions the USA and reigning champion Spain should have it easier in their respective groups, listed at 1.20 and 1.30 to finish in first place.

Bets are also being taken for the upcoming women's world champs: USA, 1.25, Australia, 8.00, and Russia, 9.00, are the main contenders.
