How are Sportsbet seriously still in business in AFL?


Just did a fun multi for a bit of a giggle

Liberatore AGS and Hawks win at SPortsbet $7.00

same bet at PointsBet is at $9.00.


Id love to know what the market share in AFL betting with Australian books is but one thing clear Sportsbet rip the punter off big time.

Sportsbet is like in bed with the AFL. They have poor analysts in : Nathan Brown, the lady McCarthy, Kane Cornes................and then they dish garbage odds. Cmon Sportsbet if your reading this, lift your game. Absolutely criminal with their odds and their adverts.

If Kane Cornes and Nathan Brown tipped the Eagles to win the wooden spoon right now, the WCE would probably end up making the Finals. Thats how bad they are.

One of the perks of having complete dog shit odds is you can let anyone on. Not really a positive for them though. Give me decent odds with a short shelf life every day

nah does my head in having to sort out fresh accounts with the books that **** their odds up and restrict you after a day of winning

SB/365 are decent reliable books and have offered some solid promos to profit off as well, dont do any dodgy shit regarding withdrawals either

For me is another aspect is when dialling up for in-play bets getting operators that cant speak English any good- its Sportsbet specifically too. Alot of times , these callers, ask you to repeat details , can't understand what a person is saying over the phone.


Now I wont lie to you, I have worked in outbound calls before so I have a bit of experience in that area but the job is either for you or not. And I dunno maybe Sportsbet are being tight with their budgets getting what I assume to be English as a 2nd language operators on their telephone lines. Im not sure if they are about budgeting costs or what but you need to have people that communicate well in the fast pace nature of in-play betting.

they don't need to be competitive they write more bets than anyone by an astronomical amount
I just remember the days using Sportsbet , must have been 20 years ago, when they were a smaller organization- definitely not the biggest in the pond. I only know this mainly because of the domain stuck to me. Remember the days where they were pretty much 4th or 5th biggest in Australia behind your Centrebets, Sportingbets, IAS and offshores being allowed in Aus. Think the relationships and forming partnerships with the Flutter Entertinament brand (and similar brands) has made them as big as they are today in the Australian market.

I said this in post last week, the betting landscape changes and it can change fairly quickly.I think they have become too big and can dictate what they want a bit of a similar example to Coles and Woolworths (with groceries) from what I read potentially 'price gouging' because they know they have so much power in the country.
 
IAS hey?

I recall they were affiliated with Sportsbet. They had an outage in September 2012 and they were giving clients $100 bonus bets as an apology. One of the tip services I worked for at the time emailed out their clients telling them to put their bonus bets on Andy Murray winning the US Open Final in five sets. He did just that and a few months later they went out of business.
 
They used to have the same skin as CanBet before Sportsbet bought them as a second book. $100 for an outage is golden years stuff. Lucky to even get a fiver in your account today unless you are a complete money bleeder

New punters today would be sickened by the amount of free money available 10-15 years ago
 
Hey guys NYRB here , I’ve decided to limit my posting of bets or slips on the Punting Thread. I have deactivated my previous account (which is now showing as @Del125763). Just using an account I opened about 18 years ago to post this. Been getting some negativity from certain members on here throughout the year and has reached a bit of a tipping point today. Don’t really want to get into too much detail.

I’ll be lurking around the Punting forum from time-to-time and other forums on Bigfooty. Thought about what I said last week and not sure if there is too much to gain for myself in posting a tip or selection on here. (Win or lose) I really don’t want to see anyone losing based off what someone reads on here. And betting for alot of is a serious business and I believe people follow these threads closely. Am not really up for any ridicule nor do I want accolades or likes. Find betting more fun/interesting when I keep things to myself. The best wins, from my experience anyway, Ive often found are the wins you kept to yourself without needing to share or post. (or aftertime)

Good luck to you guys punting and wishing you all the best for the future. It’s a been a fun journey over the course of the years and I’ve enjoyed every minute of it chatting to each and everyone of the people on these threads.

Note : I won’t be joining a Discord group or reading Conversations in private messages.

This place died through lazy punting, all this spur of the moment bet return SGM crap. Bets placed and posted without much thought, Been guilty of it myself. Could count on two hands how many AFL same game multis I've hit this season.

Most of the wins I've had punting on AFL have been with standard multis or picking out a single and going big on it. I noticed this forum went away from people posting somewhat educated bets to SGM lotto. The wins dried up and people lost interest. I've seen rounds this season where no one on the forum has hit anything.

Even getting non posters come on and sook because they've been following shit and losing their money hahaha. fools
 
S Butler (Hawks) - 20/25/30 disp @ 4.25 / 18 / 51 TAB

VFL numbers last 3 games are 29, 42, 31 with a role change. AFL obviously a different kettle of fish. Odds are 2, 4, 15 else where.
Came here to post this.

Fantasy scores 70+0100+ all from $2 to $10 juicy as he will definitely be amongst the action.
