世界杯开启了,关于个人比赛和决赛结果的投注热潮已经拉开序幕。
博彩行业组织美国博彩协会(American Gaming Association)的一项调查显示,约2,050万名美国成年人计划在2022年卡塔尔世界杯上投注总计18亿美元。
其中48%的人打算在网上下注,29%的人说他们打算与朋友打赌。与此同时,23%的人计划在实体赌场的体育博彩平台上下注,20%的人计划在博彩公司下注。
超过四分之三的受访者表示,合法投注对他们来说很重要。今年,在美国最高法院于2018年裁定联邦政府对体育博彩的禁令违宪后,世界杯投注将比以往任何时候都容易,这为许多州将其合法化打开了大门。
美国博彩协会的高级副总裁凯西·克拉克在一份声明中说:“作为第一届体育博彩合法普及的世界杯,这肯定会是美国有史以来投注最多的足球赛事。超过一半的美国成年人可以在本国市场合法投注,合法体育博彩将加深美国球迷对世界上最受关注的体育赛事的参与。”
据美国博彩协会称,华盛顿特区和31个州——1.32亿美国人的家园——目前拥有合法体育博彩市场,另有五个合法市场正在等待启动。相比之下,在2018年世界杯时,只有三个州的1,000万人能够合法投注。
调查发现,Z世代和千禧一代比X世代和婴儿潮一代更有可能在足球赛事上下注。11%的Z世代成年人和14%的千禧一代表示,他们对投注很感兴趣,而X世代和婴儿潮一代中这一比例分别只有8%和2%。
那么,人们究竟把赌注押在谁的身上?当被问及如果给他们50美元,他们会把钱押在谁的身上时,24%的人说他们会赌美国获胜——这反映了他们对祖国的偏爱。另有19%的人说他们会赌巴西,17%的人说赌阿根廷,还有10%的人说赌德国。
无论如何,都建议投注者谨慎行事。
克拉克说:“随着世界杯拉开帷幕,任何参与进来的人都应该有游戏计划,要负责任地投注。 这意味着要设定预算,保持乐趣,了解赔率,并在合法、受监管的平台下注。”(财富中文网)

The World Cup is here, and the betting spree on the outcome of individual games and the final has begun.
About 20.5 million American adults plan to bet a total of $1.8 billion on the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, according to a survey by the American Gaming Association, a gambling industry trade group.
Of those, 48% intend to place their bets online and 29% said they plan to bet casually with friends. Meanwhile, 23% plan to bet at a physical casino sportsbook and 20% plan to place a bet with a bookie.
Just over three-quarters of respondents said it’s important for them to place their bets legally. And this year, betting on the World Cup will be easier than ever after the Supreme Court ruled in 2018 to end a federal ban on commercial sports betting, opening the door to many states legalizing it.
“As the first World Cup with widespread availability of legal sports betting, this will certainly be the most bet-upon soccer event ever in the U.S.,” AGA senior vice president, Casey Clark, said in a statement. “With more than half of all American adults having access to legal betting options in their home market, legal sports betting will deepen American fan engagement in the most-watched sporting event in the world.”
Washington D.C. and 31 states —home to 132 million Americans—currently have legal sports betting markets, with five additional legal markets awaiting launch, according to the AGA. That compares with only 10 million people in three states who could legally bet on the 2018 World Cup.
The survey found that Gen Zers and millennials are more likely to bet on the soccer tournament than Gen X and baby boomers. Eleven percent of Gen Z adults and 14% of millennials said they were interested in betting on the World Cup compared to only 8% of Gen X and 2% of baby boomers.
So who exactly are people betting on? When asked who they’d put their money on if given $50, 24% said they’d wager on the United States winning—reflecting their home country bias. Another 19% said they’d bet on Brazil, 17% said Argentina, and 10% said Germany.
Whatever the case, bettors are advised to be prudent.
“As the World Cup kicks off, anyone getting in on the action should have a game plan to bet responsibly,” Clark said. “That means setting a budget, keeping it fun, learning the odds and playing with legal, regulated operators.”
