The Winter Olympics are a special event and the Vancouver Games will long be remembered as the best run Winter Olympics ever. There were tears of joy as well as tears of heartbreak as athletes from all over the world came together in a celebration of sport. Canada was also on show and many people now have a better understanding of the wonderful nation Canada is.

The Winter Olympics is here and the world is watching. Vancouver is a winter wonderland at the moment and its Canada’s turn to show everyone what a great country we have. It is the best possible time to be enjoying the Games and the Canadian athletes are doing their bit as well by showing just how talented they are when it comes to winter sports.

As promised, 888sport has put up more fantastic markets on Winter Olympic events. This will give you an amazing amount of events to bet on. There will be even more markets put up over the next week so keep checking for your favorite sport if it isn’t on the site already. Why not earn a few extra dollars cheering home the very best in the world on the only stage that matters.

Markets are up at 888sport for the Olympic events of ice hockey, skeleton, luge, bobsled and curling so it might be an idea to get in early and see what’s on offer.

The obvious bets for us fellow Canadians are the ice hockey and curling teams. We dominate both the men’s and women’s competition in both these sports, so it’s almost your patriotic duty to show your faith in these teams as they head out onto the ice to create ‘golden memories’ for us all!
