]]>Most Popular NRL Bets
Of course, most NRL betting takes place over the regular season; with 16 teams playing each other home and away, that means there are 480 matches to bet on each season – plenty of opportunities to place all sorts of NRL bets. The most popular type of NRL bet is certainly on who will win any given match. Whether you are betting on the team, you support or simply because you think you have found good odds, putting your money where your mouth is and backing one team over the other to win certainly adds plenty of excitement.
Obviously, at the start of the season, you will also have the opportunity to bet on who you think will win the league and Grand Final. Although you will also have this opportunity for most of the season, the earlier you can place these bets, the better odds you will get.
Other NRL Bets
Many bookmakers such as Bet365 Australia also take NRL bets on other, lower-profile aspects of the NRL, such as the NYC Toyota Cup and the New South Wales Cup. Sometimes, NRL betting on these competitions can be more straightforward as many teams tend to have a more clear advantage, and therefore results are easy to pick. However, whatever competition you are betting on, you’ll often have the opportunity to mix up your bets by including such factors as winning margin and handicap betting. These types of NRL bets are suitable for when you want to back a team to win, but they are a firm favourite, and it is more worth your while to lengthen the odds in this way.
NRL Betting Tips
Undoubtedly the best way of improving your chances of making money on the NRL is to do your homework. The pre-season form is often a good indicator of how individual teams and players will fare in the regular season and is certainly worth keeping an eye on. Also, be sure to check out any transfers made during the off-season, as this can often dramatically improve a team’s chance of winning.
Australian National Rugby League FAQ
Line betting is when a match is handicapped by the bookmaker. If one side is considered to be 3.5 points better than the opposing team, you can wager that this team will win by more than 3.5 points.
The NRL Total Game Points is calculated by adding the total points scored by each team following the final siren.
There are no rules normally stopping you backing both teams on betting exchanges, where you can also back and lay the same selection, which is basically the same as backing both selections.

]]>How to Bet on Tennis?
As with any sport, the basic bet you can place is on who will win the match in hand. However, there are often firm favourites in many tennis matches, and it is often more rewarding to put together more complex wagers. For example, an overall tennis betting market is on the set scoreline; in major competitions, each match is a best-of-five affair, and if you think it will be rather lopsided, you could put money on a 3-0 win. At the start of the tennis competition, you can also pick the outright tournament winner. The earlier you pick the winner, the better your odds will be, as there are still so many players involved.
More Tennis Bets
The more you look into tennis betting, the more you notice, the more excellent range of different markets you can bet on. For example, it is possible to bet on individual set scorelines and even on such events as a player losing the first set but then taking the match. If you use an international bookmaker, you can bet on every single match point as it happens. With Australian Bookmakers, live tennis betting is also available, but perhaps without point-by-point betting.
Tennis Betting Tips
The key to most sports betting is researching and looking at the recent form. Tennis betting is undoubtedly no different. In this respect, it is sometimes possible to pick shock results, even when there is a firm favourite in the match. Most tennis betting takes place on the four major tournaments of the year; betting on Wimbledon, the Australian Open, U.S. Open, and French Open is undoubtedly very popular. Many bookmakers put together special promotions for just these events. Also, local players often get a lift when playing in these majors, so it may be wise to back an otherwise unfancied Australian player when betting on the Australian Open, for example. Whatever event you are looking at betting on, be sure to check out both players’ track records before putting your money down.

]]>Live betting gives you an advantage
Live betting can be more successful than pre-game betting, because of course you can watch the run of play and see how things are going. This does raise a few issues though and they are worth bearing in mind. First of all, you may possibly experience a few hiccups at live betting when you first begin. You will have a tendency to roll with every change in play and not notice a trend develop. For this reason it is really important that your first bets when you go live are well thought out. Choose a game with which you are familiar. Because of the IGA you are not likely to find AFL games available for live betting, and the same applies to NRL but cricket, being a worldwide interest has a lot of live betting opportunities. Getting to know another game, such as baseball, basketball or American football is fun, but give it time so you know all the ins and outs before you bet at all, let alone place a large bet.
Live betting gives you a unique chance to change horse in midstream if the run of the game changes. If you support a particular team you might feel a bit disloyal, but the winnings are the reason you are betting, so go with your gut. One thing you should avoid in live betting as in all other kinds is to not attempt to win back your losses. Sometimes it just isn’t your day and you should stop before you lose more. Set a budget and stick to it and all of your gambling experiences will be happy ones. Because live betting is so immediate, you can change your bet if you think the outcome is changing, but even here, don’t bet more than you can afford to lose.
The knack of live betting
The trick with live betting is to act fast. When you enter the amount of your bet, the odds sometimes change while your bet is going through. If this happens, your bet will be rejected and this can be frustrating, especially if the game has taken an unusual turn and you want to take advantage of it. This happens to everyone so you are not unfairly disadvantaged but it is annoying – learn to live with it and become familiar with a particular bookie so you know their site well. The good news is that Australian bookmakers update their odds very quickly so if you do want to bet in reaction to something in particular happening; the bookmaker should already have altered the odds.
Live Betting FAQ
Live betting, also known as in-play or in-running betting, is the process of placing a bet on a sporting event after it has started. It takes away the need to study statistics and puts you at the heart of the action, giving you the chance to change your bet or place a new one during the event.
Live betting is no different and can be more beatable and profitable if you are able to accurately predict what will happen next over a shorter period within the game.
Placing a live bet via the internet is banned, and even though operators used to be able to get around this law by using a “click-to-call” loophole, that opportunity has closed as well.
Betting online in-play on sports is unavailable in Australia due to legislation. However, you can bet in-play over the phone. As shown below, a sports market will prompt you with the option to bet in-play over the phone when it turns in-play.

]]>International Cricket Betting
As stated above, the Ashes rolls around every couple of years and sees an incredible amount of cricket betting taking place. This age-old rivalry certainly sees plenty of money changing hands and there are many different types of cricket bet you can place on it. As well as the obvious question of who will win the series, other bets are available based on individual player performance, and such markets as winning margin and man of the match/series etc.
Other international cricket betting is also available as Australia also plays other nations in test series, as well as one-day internationals and 20/20 cup competitions. Of course, there are many test playing nations, and do you not need to limit your cricket betting to only matches involving Australia.
Domestic Cricket Betting
There is also a healthy domestic scene when it comes to cricket in Australia; the six state cricket teams compete in a few different competitions and different forms of the sport over the summer. The Sheffield Shield is a domestic first-class competition which sees plenty of cricket betting and usually takes place between October and March each year. Another popular event for cricket betting is the Ryobi One-Day Cup also the KFC T20 Big Bash League is the premier 20/20 cricket competition in the country and is growing in popularity every year.
Cricket Betting Tips
Cricket is often a sport which is determined by details, and as such, looking into the finer points of player and team performance is very important. Certain players do better on different grounds and types of pitch for example, just as batsmen may perform well or struggle against particular kinds of bowler. For this reason, many punters enjoy the individual player performance aspects of cricket betting, rather than trying to call the outright result for many matches. From both a team and player performance perspective, bookmakers tend to have plenty of different cricket betting markets to choose from with everything from who will win the toss to how many runs the opening partnership will score.

]]>Brownlow Betting History
If you are considering betting on the Brownlow Medal, you should certainly take a look at which players have won the award in the past. Typically, midfielders tend to win the Medal as they are often very influential within an AFL team and receive plenty of praise. More midfielders have won the Brownlow Medal than any other position, and in fact, as of 2012, midfielders have won the award every year since 2007. Therefore, when it comes to Brownlow Medal betting, it makes sense to choose a midfield player who plays an influential role in one of the top teams. For the 2012 season, many people will be backing the 2010 winner Chris Judd once more as he continues to play a very important role for Carlton.
Brownlow Medal Betting Strategy
Of course, you do not need to try to predict the winner of the Brownlow Medal only at the start of the season. Betting is usually open for the duration of the season, although of course, the later you leave it the more form there will be to go on and the shorter the odds will become. Because at the start of the season, Brownlow Medal winner betting odds are at their longest, with perhaps four or five players tied as joint favourite for the award, it may be good sense to place one or more each way bets. Some bookmakers will not allow you to do this, therefore it is a good idea to have more than one bookmaker account so that you can spread your bets around. Also be careful of picking players who may be slightly on the decline from their peak years, as not only may there form be dipping, but older players are also more prone to injuries which could lead to them missing important matches.

]]>Multi Bets Explained
The mathematics behind calculating a multi bet is usually a little tricky to do in your head, but luckily, the betting slips on virtually all modern bookmaker websites will do the hard work for you. For example, perhaps you would like to bet on the result of three different AFL matches – in your opinion, Adelaide, Collingwood and Essendon are all going to win their matches. Rather than putting three different bets on these three different results, you could choose to place a multi bet with one wager covering all three results. The odds would be calculated like this:
Odds Calculated
Adelaide to win = 1.28
Collingwood to win = 1.77
Essendon to win = 1.90
Multi bet odds = 1.28 x 1.77 x 1.90 = 4.30
As you can see, by combining three relatively short odds results, you come out with multi bet odds which are much more generous. Of course, on the flip side, you will need all three of your chosen results to come right for you to win the bet.
Multi Bet Pros and Cons
Most of the time, people choose to use multi bets for one of two reasons. Firstly, you may have found a number of bets which you want to place, however they all have relatively short odds and you do not want to put a large enough bet on any of them to make a good return. By combining these bets on to a multi bet you will receive better overall odds and so you needn’t put on such a large bet to make a good winning.
Secondly, multi-bets are just a lot of fun and many punters see them as an exciting challenge to get right. Because you can combine different results from different sports, you can use all of your sports betting and racing betting knowledge to tailor make a bet you feel will come off and produce significant winnings. The real negative, of course, is that even if only one of your bets fails, the whole multi bet fails too.
