Where You Can Get The Best Online Odds

The game of chess is believed to have originated in India during the 7th century and a derivation of the game chaturanga. The rules weren’t officially standardised until 19th century and Wilhelm Steinitz was crowned the first official World Champion in 1886 and has been recognised as a professional sporting competition ever since. Norwegian Magnus Carlsen is the current reigning World Chess Champion since he beat Viswanthan Anand in 2013 and subsequently in a rematch in 2014. The upcoming World Championship is set to commence on the 11th November in New York City with a grand prize of $1.1million. Carlsen is set to defend against Russian Sergey Karjakin.

Most bookmakers, some of the casinos like this kazino online or oddsmakers allow wagering on practically anything, so it should come as no surprise that you can bet on professional chess matches including the upcoming World Championship match. You can check out the odds now as well as the best deals on online casinos ahead of the big clash later this year.

Chess tournament organisers are frequently looking for ways to promote chess and increase interest, betting may be one way of doing just that, even among people who not real fans of the game but fancy a taste of the action. Considering the diverse range of countries that participate in professional chess this does create an obvious danger of course in that there is nothing to prevent a player from betting against himself and then taking a dive in the match. Alternatively he could bet on himself and pay his opponents to lose to him. The main thing standing in the way of this are the egos of chess players, which generally are very huge.
