Sports Betting : Choosing the Right Bookmaker
Choosing the right bookmakers can have a tremendous effect on your sport betting bank account. When bookmakers set their odds,
they do so in order to try and make a certain percentage of money regardless of who bets on what. Some bookmakers have higher
percentages than others, which means they have worse odds for punters.
Our recommendation for betting on sports online is to have accounts with at least 3 of the bookmakers that are on this
page or appear near the top of the odds comparison (which signifies they have the best odds). If you can handle more than
3 bookmakers, then this will give you an even bigger advantage by being able to bet with the best odds.
Australian Bookmakers
Note that the TABs around Australia offer the worst odds out of any online Australian bookmakers. If you are betting
with your TAB then you are literally throwing money away.
All of Australia's online sports betting bookmakers are licensed and regulated
by the Government, making them arguably the safest place to bet in the world. Sportspunter recommends the following:
|
Sportsbet Australia in the NT offer excellent odds, and many bonuses and promotions to help you get more
from your betting dollar. This organisation has become first rate since changing management in late 2003.
|
| We also recommend CanBet from the ACT. CanBet have
exceptionally good odds (very often the best). They have a fast, user-friendly website and cover a lot of sports locally
and around the globe. Best of all is the 25% rebate on your horse racing losses.
