In gambling mecca Las Vegas, more than 50 percent of the expected record-setting $100 million in Super Bowl bets this year will be on so-called 'prop' bets - wages on a certain player or a certain scenario within the game. He says the amount of prop bets placed has doubled from just a decade ago. When the time comes to play, gamblers choose their bets from a prop sheet that can be up to a dozen pages thick. Esposito says the prop bets are so popular because those options give players cushioning - instead of placing all their cash on a single bet - like the final score.
