Betiton Ireland is the best online betting site for all the major curling tournaments. We offer competitive odds and various betting markets to choose from, so if you’re interested in betting on this rather niche sport, you’re in the right place.

We’ve compiled an in-depth guide explaining how curling betting odds work, how to read them, and how to place your bets at Betiton Ireland. At the end of this guide, you’ll also get our expert tips to help you bet on curling with the best odds.

Curling Betting Odds

Curling betting odds are the numbers a bookmaker like Betiton uses to indicate the likelihood of a specific outcome, such as Canada winning against Germany. The odds also tell you which team is the favourite and which is the underdog, so you can base your bets accordingly.

Betiton has the best curling odds in Ireland, giving you the best value for your bets. Like most betting sites in Ireland, we use fractional odds. The correct way to read these odds is to remember that the first number is the potential profit you’ll get if you wager the second number. For example, if Canada has odds of 6/1, you’ll win €6 for every €1 bet if Canada wins.

The odds format can be changed to the decimal or American format from the menu at the top of the page.

Curling Betting Markets

You can find many popular curling betting markets at Betiton Ireland. However, due to the nature of the sport, there aren’t as many different ways to bet on a game as with other sports like football or cricket. Betting on the winner is always the most straightforward way of betting on curling, but if you’re interested in different bet types, here are some other markets that can be found at betting sites like Betiton.

  • Match Winner – Betting on the match winner is the most common type of curling betting, and it simply requires you to pick the winning team in a curling match.
  • Outright/Tournament Winner – This bet is similar to betting on the match winner, but it requires you to predict which team will win a competition or tournament, such as the World Curling Championships.
  • Totals – Total betting involves betting on the score of the game, but instead of predicting the correct score, you’ll need to guess whether the total score will be over or under the number set by the bookmaker (over/under bets).
  • Special or Prop Bets – Prop bets are bets placed on different outcomes in the game but not on the final result, such as an individual player’s performance.

Curling Live Betting

Live curling betting offers an exciting and dynamic way to engage with this niche sport. Unlike pre-match betting, in play betting allows you to place wagers during the game. This means odds are constantly being updated to reflect the current state of play, so you’ll need to be quick in placing your bets.

Live betting on curling also provides a more interactive experience, especially if you’re watching the game in-person or online via live stream. In fact, we suggest watching the game and following the action closely if you want to place live bets. This makes the whole experience a lot more engaging and allows you to make better betting decisions.

Best Curling Betting Tips by Betiton Ireland

Are you new to betting on curling or an experienced bettor looking for the best tips to elevate your strategy? We’ve got some top tips to help you develop your betting strategy and avoid common beginner mistakes.

  1. Find the best curling odds and choose a reliable sportsbook like Betiton Ireland.
  2. Don’t bet on a team because they’re your favourite. Base your bets on research, expert tips, and current odds.
  3. Look for value bets and consider the underdog. Betting on the favourite isn’t always the safest option, and the returns are often low when you always back the favourite.
  4. Stay updated with the latest news and updates to be aware of any recent player changes or injuries.
  5. If you’re interested in live betting, it’s better to watch the game you’re betting on.
  6. Ensure you understand the game’s rules and the tournament format you’re betting on.
  7. Manage your bankroll strategically by setting a budget for curling betting and avoiding taking big risks.
  8. Bet responsibly and within limits to avoid rash decisions that can lead to significant losses.
  9. Find reliable tipsters and review their predictions. While their predictions aren’t always accurate due to the unpredictability of sports, it’s worth considering them before placing your bets.

Basic Curling Rules

If you’re planning to bet on curling, it’s crucial to have a proper understanding of the curling rules. In curling, two teams of four players each compete on a sheet of ice, usually indoors. Players take turns sliding a 40-pound granite stone towards the ‘house‘, an area consisting of four circles. The centre of the house is called the ‘tee‘ or ‘button‘.

The objective is to get the stone as close to the button as possible. During the stone’s motion, two team members use brooms to sweep the ice in front of it, melting it slightly to make it slide faster and in a straight line.

Points are awarded based on how close the stone is to the centre, with additional points given for each stone closer to the button than the opponent’s stones. A standard game has 10 ends, while mixed doubles usually play eight. The winning team is the one with the stone nearest to the centre of the circle.

Other Sports Categories to Bet on at Betiton Ireland

Curling Ireland betting is just one of around 40 betting options available on our platform, not to mention hundreds of in-play events. If you’re interested in other niche sports like curling, you can find interesting categories like handball, hurling, netball, beach volley, futsal, and surfing.

Some more traditional and popular sports you can bet on include football, Gaelic sports, cricket, golf, horse racing, greyhound racing, and MMA fighting.

Responsible Gambling

When engaging in curling betting at Betiton Ireland, it’s crucial to prioritise responsible gambling and set limits on your account to ensure you’re betting safely. Betiton Ireland provides various tools to support responsible gambling, including deposit limits, loss limits, reality checks, and self-exclusion options.

By using these limits, you can control how much time and money you spend on curling betting and other types of sports betting on our platform. Using reality checks will also remind me to take regular breaks because it can be easy to lose track of time when gambling online.
