KEY POINTS:
Most people who had a flutter on the America's Cup before yesterday morning's Team New Zealand win have lost their cash.
The majority of bets at online bookmakers Centrebet were for a 5-0 win to Swiss syndicate Alinghi.
So by levelling the best-of-nine series at 1-1, Team New Zealand have disappointed a lot of punters.
Centrebet yesterday put Team New Zealand at $2.50 to bring the cup home.
Defenders Alinghi are at $1.50.
Centrebet media director Neil Evans said he expected a flurry of betting after the Dean Barker-led team's impressive performance.
"Coming from behind like that will really fire up the series."
About A$30,000 ($33,000) has been placed in bets on the America's Cup through Centrebet. The biggest on is A$3000, for an Alinghi win.
The bet now attracting most money is Alinghi to win 5-2.
