Sports Betting Forum

Hey there,

I'm a producer with SBS TV's Insight programme. We're doing a show on online betting and I'm looking for a bit of an education and maybe some folks to come on the show.

I'm trying to canvass opinion of punters, particularly those that approach it with a professional attitude -- spreading their bets with exotics and almost approaching gambling in the manner a broker would approach the stock market.

What do you guys think of exotic bets and different sports codes and betting operators limiting them?

How has online changed your approach to punting?

How profitable can it be? (is it a bit of fun, a hobby or is it possible to make a sizeable quid from it?)

You can contact me personally at scott.mitchell@sbs.com.au, I'll be interested to see what you all reckon and if you've got the time a phone call to chat about it would be really helpful.

All the best,

Scott
