www.vip.com also offer many different ‘Football Juice Promotions’ covering both the NFL and the college version NCAA throughout both of their league campaigns, but please do remember that there are time schedules to these specific bets so checking VIP.com for the different times will help you not miss out on a bet.

As one of the new boys to hit the world of the internet vip also are one of the best when it comes to looking after their own customers in the form of many rewards which they regularly given out to customers both new and existing, you can win just about anything from money which is added to your account to some great prizes which are not the normal dross that sites regularly hand out and to be honest I think a few sites want to take a few leaves out of Vip.coms book.

With American Football finishing for another season after this Super Bowl don’t worry because Vip.com has excellent coverage of the NBA, the NBL and all the Ice hockey fixtures that are played in the US so fans of these sports should really take a look at Vip.com because I can guarantee you will be impressed.

We all know that www.ladbrokes.com has been one of the leaders for years when it comes to the share number of customers that either log on or walk through the doors of any Ladbrokes branch around the country but with so many new up and coming websites now popping up every day I feel Ladbrokes had better start looking after new and loyal customers a lot better in terms of promotions or incentives which I am sorry to say Ladbrokes does not seem to do regular or risk losing a lot of the cliental it has taken years to amass.

BET NOW

Today’s punter wants value for his money and with so many websites now offering healthy bonuses on certain multiple bets Inc: Lucky 15’s, Yankees etc with bonuses up to 50% sometimes given out on winnings from websites that could never compete with Ladbrokes on a financial level so it is hard to see why Ladbrokes.com do not go down this route considering how rich they actually are but I think this is a case of the rich just getting greedier in the gambling world.
One good thing that Ladbrokes cannot be faulted for though is its professionalism with prices always on offer for every Sport and Political event just a click away and its general reliable, safe and consistent approach to everything they do is something I take my hat off to and although many sites are threatening Ladbrokes grip on the betting World I do not think anyone will be able to topple them off the top perch.

The Good:
www.ladbrokes.com have developed an excellent, easy to use website. The layout is clear and easy to navigate, and bets from the coupons can be selected with just one click. The ‘In-Play’ features are fast loading, much faster than most other online bookies, probably because the layout is simple. The only fault with Ladbrokes online is that it isn’t very welcoming, and might be off-putting to new customers.

The Bad:
From personal experience I don’t think ladbrokes.com have ever offered me any promotions or free bets to encourage me to use their website more. Other companies send me promotional emails on a regular basis with at least something to tempt me to bet with them, such as free bets or bonuses on certain markets, but absolutely nothing from Ladbrokes.

The Ugly:
The odds offered on in-play markets are UGLY! If you enjoy in-play betting steer well clear of Ladbrokes! My last experience with them they were offering odds almost half a point below Bet365 on all outcomes and even Bet365 odds can be too low at times.

Summary:
As a well established long running company, www.ladbrokes.com probably don’t need to worry too much about gaining online revenue, and it shows all too clearly with their lack of customer rewards and poor odds. Despite the well designed website, I would recommend other online betting sites, especially those with a bigger dependency on internet revenue. High street chains seem to soak up their running costs by offering lower odds. Try to avoid Ladbrokes if you can.

With so much on offer nowadays on the Internet it would be impossible to say which the best site is out there but with so many forms of gambling today there are certain sites that offer better deals than others.
If it is European Sport betting (horse racing, football, cricket, darts etc) that you like to bet on than obviously the big boys have to be Ladbrokes, William hills and Corals purely on the basis of their experience in offering good prices in all the sports for the last 50 or so years and the fact they have some dedicated staff either over the counter or on the other end of the phone that will sort out anything that is bothering you.

For all lovers of Sports across the pond in the US than look no further than VIP.com and Betus.com who both have websites dedicated to all the big Sports including American Football, Basketball, Baseball and Ice Hockey with all the usual multiple bets on offer on each individual fixture.
Australian Sport lovers are genuinely looked after by Sportingbet.com who knows what they are on about when it comes to the individual Sports that the Aussies love like Aussie rules football, domestic Cricket and soccer etc.
Casino and Poker lovers have literally thousands of websites at their disposal nowadays but if I had to choose one to use then I would have to say signing up with Victor chandlers poker site Vcpoker.com would not be a bad thing, they offer a 100% deposit bonus and have hundreds of free tournaments in which you can win real money prizes which helps you save them hard earned pennies.

Bet 365.com are offering some good incentives on certain types of soccer betting. Placing accumulators with Bet365 has become much more attractive since they introduced bonuses on winnings – between 5% and 100% on winning returns. Doubles are not included in this offer, but the bonuses start at 5% on trebles up to 100% for a 14-fold (for those of you who are eternally optimistic).

Alternatively, if you enjoy risking a few pennies on ‘correct score’, ‘half time/full time’, or ‘score cast’ markets, Bet365 are refunding losing bets if the outcome is 0-0. They term this as a ‘bore draw’ and, let’s face it; some games can be boring, so getting your money back is a small bonus. This is good if you like to bet on games you think will be low scoring matches.

BET NOW

I especially like the bonuses on accumulators as they make multiple betting with Bet365 probably the best for returns. Keep in mind, however, that these incentives only apply to bets placed before the game has kicked off and not in-play.

To find more information, go to the website and click on the ‘Soccer’ link in the left hand menu. You should see, in the right hand column, the promotions and links to more info.

For punters that do not follow like to have a flutter on Football bets then do not worry because Bet365 covers the whole spectrum when it comes to bonuses and incentives and you will find many jaw dropping offers to keep you happy.

www.vip.com are fairly new to the world of Internet gambling and judging by the odds they seem to offer I think they will grow very fast with a vast array of Sporting opportunities for the experienced gambler to get his or her teeth into.
VIP.com does not give it away in the name but they do some very good offers on all the big sports from over the Atlantic with their offers on American Football literally quite outstanding to say the least with some brilliant looking bets.

BET NOW

VIP.com is offering you free points to punt on your favourite US American Football team during the regular US football season which goes on for months. The bet itself is in their guaranteed best line deals which to me is hard to understand but whichever your favourite team is in the sport having a look at VIP.com might reap rewards because to somebody that likes betting on the game I can guarantee you will be impressed at what you will see.

US Horse racing is also on offer at VIP.com with an in depth look at all the upcoming races from Stateside. The other US Sports all have books open on them also with regular updated bets that should keep you interested if you like the US action.
VIP.com has also jumped on the Casino bandwagon with all the usual things on offer like on many other sites of today. One thing that I do like about VIP.com is the Rewards section they operate which looks after the regular punters with prizes that range from money to gamble with, all different kinds of Sporting merchandise and a lot more also. If you do encounter a problem then there is no need to worry as VIP offer both email and phone services on the Customer service side which all helps.

bet 365.com – Golf is the latest Sport I think to join the ranks of having a World Cup and with this year’s tournament being held at the beautiful setting of the Mission Hills golf course in China in which the reigning Champions Scotland who have a team of represented by Colin Montgomerie and Alastair Forsyth have really struggled on and find themselves way down the field.

PLAY NOW

The surprise leaders so far are Germany who has two players that are way down the World rankings in Martin Kaymer and Alex Cejka but you would never have guessed because the two players have been playing brilliantly and fully deserve to be leading at this stage.

Australia currently occupy 2nd place going into the four balls and I expect them to overtake the Germans after this round because I would think they would be more experienced in this format of the game. The United States team who are represented by former Open winner Ben Curtis and Brandt Snedeker lay alongside Spain and Canada in three-way share of third place on eight-under-par, but like Australia I expect them to make head way in the four balls in the next round because of the amount of times they have played this version of the game compared to the lesser known countries currently at the top of the table.

My tip for the Cup is Australia though closely followed by The USA and Spain with the English team which includes Ian Poulter to make headway to get in to the top 5 in the latter stages.

Stephanie Gilmore has sealed her second World Surfing Title with a stunning last minute win at Sunset Beach in Hawaii.

PLAY NOW

The twenty year old from Tweed Heads in New South Wales has cemented her spot as the world’s dominant female surfer, claiming back to back titles in closely contested final in meager one and a half meter waves.

Gilmore faced up against Brazil’s Silvana Lima in the final and didn’t seal the victory, and the world title, until the dying moments when she managed to carve out the highest score of the day with an eight point five.

According to Gilmore, when she awoke on the final day of competition to the less than impressive swell, she was not overly confident of grabbing the world title ahead of main rival Sofia Mulanovich and seven-time world champion Layne Beachely.

However, much to her delight, the two were eliminated in the semi finals of the competition, leaving Gilmore needing victory in the finals to claim the title.

The second world title came as justification for her first, proving it was no fluke.

She one her first title last year – becoming the first female rookie in history to win a world title but the raw talent she displayed as a youngster early in her career meant she was not without pressure to succeed.

Brimming with the confidence of a second world title and another tour win, Gilmore will head into the Billabong Pro Maui in Honolulu Bay as a red hot favourite to put her supremacy in women’s world surfing well and truly beyond doubt.

www.vip.com - It’s official – Ben Cousins will don the Black and Gold in 2009 after the Richmond Tigers chose the disgraced former West Coast Eagle with their number six draft pick.

Yesterday the Richmond administration did an about face following the AFL Boards’ decision not to allow Graeme Pollack to be placed on the rookie list – freeing up an extra pick and $310, 000 in the salary cap.

BET NOW

It looked like the Tigers were going to snub Cousins ahead of younger up and comers but pressure from fans and Club Legend Kevin Sheedy tipped the scale in the Brownlow Medalists favour.

Richmond fans and members of the offical cheer squad marched down punt road singing ‘Cousins for Christmas’ and the team song, demanding Richmon Administration re-consider selecting Cousins with their number six pick.

Sheedy is believed to have been instrumental in the bid to secure the thirty year old – arranging meeting between Cousins and the Richmond Administration as well as a one on one meeting between Coach Terry Wallace and Cousins.

In what could prove to be one of the greatest gambles in the AFL’s history, Richmond supporters have welcomed the decision though the Administration will be quite nervous ahead of the ‘festive’ season and a hectic pre-season schedule.

Cousins has not played competitive football since he tore his hamstring in a preliminary final against Port Adelaide in 2007 but there is no doubting his credentials as one of the greatest players of the modern era.
