Bet Types you would like to see...

[thebookie]

Ok Guys,

What are some of the bet types you would like to be able to bet on, that aren't currently offered by your betting shop?

[rabbitz]

I would like to see all up betting win/place extend more than four legs.
It would be in the tabs interest because the bets would lose most of the time
so why dont they do it.Another one could be quinella/exacta allups limited to two legs also what about quadrellas in Queensland
cheers

Asian handicap betting on soccer. And more leagues to bet on, like Dutch, Scottish and French.

What about the local stuff we bet on?

Anything in Basketball? Player V Player Pts or Rebounds? 1st Score?

How about Tennis? Some sort of line or hcp? Total Games? Total Aces?

AFL more Player V Player stuff? Goals? etc

Now that F1 and Moto GP have become so one dimensional is there anything there to make it more interesting? HH drivers/riders or Handicaps? Groups? Margins?

Now that you mention it. I am a huge fan of the Moto GP. I watch all the races 125, 250 and Moto GP.

I'd like to see betting on which manufacturer or perhaps which team will win. I know it's pretty limited to the major teams, Honda, Yamaha and maybe Ducati, but the other teams Suzuki, Kawasaki, Aprilia are on the improve, and the Proton KR, Harris WCM an Moriwaki are there as well.
Most of the manufacturers have a number of different team entries which make predicting the winner a little harder in the team stakes. The 125 and 250's also have the KTM and the 125's additionally have the Gilera, Derbi and Malaguti's. However you could probably limit this to the Moto GP class.

Betting on the 125 and 250cc races, not limited to when they race in Aus. On all races.

Betting on the Superbike and Supersports series too.

CRICKET:

Correct number of wickets by the top bowlers in an innings.

the only way you will ever see all these bets types is if betfair is allowed to operate in Australia....the internet bookies might bring it in but the tabs won't bring it...if they don't get a certain amount of turnover they don't want to know about it....when they first brouhgt in Superfecta races they were on all sydney races....now they are only on a couple because there is not enought interest in it.

What about tennis? Surely something could make this game more interesting???

[Mr ed]

Something we do at our club i think the tab could do is the pick a horse every race on the card and pay $1 per combo, 4 points first 2 points second and 1 third, person, people with most points end of the day split the kitty. Would keep punters interested all day and give a chance at a huge dividend. Like this better then that Mystery Six shit they're trying.

How about head-to-head betting on horse racing? The bookie/betting exchange selects two horses, say the fave and second-fave, and we can then bet one to beat the other.

What happened to all our other posts???

The bookie.
What odds will you give me that the Howard Government will raise the level of GST after July.
Cheers.

What a bizarre request...

[puntz]

a fair while back in SA there was the fourtrella's each wednesday and saturday. $12.00 I think back then for 1 unit.
Not sure what the equivelant is these days, but the classic foutrella like it was twice a week.

Odds for howard to raise the GST ?
well, I'd gamble he may lower it, the economy is not in the red according to costello, ain't it? so why raise the gst ?

[Shaun]

I don't know about raising it....but i will give you 100-1 that he doesn't lower it....gees this is a safer bet than a one horse race

I know that companies like sportingbet bet on cricket head to heads , battting , wickets, next man out etc and in the afl , have possession head to heads for the midfielders and goal head to head as well, i love betting on the exotics in cricket and footy , there can be a bit of value in them
