I could not get in even with an Australian address. Ip's get blocked from USA. Great Aussie Book and from what I hear big limits. They are very strict with id's ect, almost impossible from US to play there.

That will change soon after they are sold. They don't take action now because their owner is a partner of Park Place Entertainment and to protect their US licenses they keep out US bettors. Almost certainly the buyer of this, at this high price, will entertain at least some US action.

Great book .. most Americans don't know what they're misssing. They target European and Asian bettors ... Good numbers (actually great) on certain soccer matches ... not so good on US sports. If you want to bet a Dime on Norwegian Trotting, they can accomodate.

They are a joke with respect to live betting. They use up to one minute to confirm bets. Ridicolous.

The second best Aussie book after Canbet, but not second by much.

Probably offer more lines on more sports than any other online book, and in most cases it takes a lot of action to move their lines.

Very quick and reliable payouts. But do take a while to confirm bets.

I played with them a while ago and liked it. BUT: They didnt take neteller then. Do they now?

VG789 · May 13, 2003

in top 5,but usually no good for US sports.

They come from the same family as Pinnacle, which means that they are a complete waste of time.

Care to explain the reason for your dislike ?

PanchoSanza · May 13, 2003

Because he thinks he's a know it all.

He only bets soccer anyway, dumbass girl sport.

Centrebet is great, almost as safe as a bank.

acw · May 13, 2003

Wrong Pancho!
I bet on almost every sport where there is money to be made.
The reason why I do not bet with these guys is that they hardly ever take a position, so I can always find a better price elsewhere. If they do take a position, then most of the time it is the right position. On those very few occasions that they do offer value, then they will not let me have a decent bet. And worst of all their lines then make an earth shocking move.

All I can say is that, at least in relation to soccer, you must be playing at a different Centrebet than I am.

Centrebet is one of the best run books in the world. On over £150 million in bets they reported around 20-25 million profit. They take big action. Related to Pinnicle??? They were apart of Jupiters plc (land based casinos) which used to be owned by Hilton plc and now that Jupiters got bought by TabCorp (the Aussie Tote) they are being sold off.

I would love to play there just for the U.S. sports.
I have seen alot of juicy numbers.
I was about to play there when I was in the philippines, but I would have had to send them a bunch of stuff and open a bank account there.
Just too much of a hassle...

TheGeneral+ · May 18, 2003

Good debate & good info.

Thanks all.

Great book, great customer service, high limits, super fast payouts (2 days by bank wire).
