online sports betting news

Ladbrokes invites you with a simple layout on their homepage, and immediate sections to which you can jump. Sports Betting, Casino, Poker, Bingo, Games and a financial section greet you, along, of course, with their latest promotions. Ladbrokes is one of the first names one tends to think of, when considering placing a bet on the horses, and that comes from their involvement on the high street. One area which such High Street Bookies have had to incorporate into their arsenal, is that of a good online bookmaking website to provide the same services, such as one would expect in their shop.

Ladbrokes do a great job of providing that, a no-frills layout, and everything to hand, just as you need it. The horse racing translates well to their website, with the all important bank of stats to back up your betting selection. Looking at the Welsh National, which takes place down in Chepstow on Monday, December 28th, there is a great 6/1 price on Paul Nicholl’s “The Tother One”. A simple click on the “details of last run” link, and there you can see he made a mistake and finished 2nd of 12. If you are a little short of time, this is a great quick service to help you decide where to hedge your bets. Ladbrokes also offer the best odds guaranteed, on their horse racing services, which means that if your horse’s starting price is longer than the early board price you put your money on, then Ladbrokes will pay out on the longer starting price.

Along with the horse racing, on which you can also find sections for future, US and Virtual racing, football of course is the other leading market. Jump to their sports book and you will be able to see that football is very well covered from the Premier League to Europe, along with live-in play betting on other sporting events, such as the South Africa vs. England cricket and there are options boxes right down the centre of the sports book, with news highlights linking straight to the relevant betting market. A quick scan of this will lead to you everything from cricket to ice hockey, as well as future markets.

The American sports are covered well, with headlines from the world of NFL, NHL and the NBA, which is great coverage if you’re into that, because it is not always ideally represented in the UK. From floorball to football, from Specials to Speedway, from Volleyball to Winter sports, you are well covered in a big sports book with Ladbrokes. The familiar green and red colours reminds you that you are unmistakably with Ladbrokes, and it is a much respected name in the world of betting, be it on the high street or as an online bookmaker. There may not be the glamour of other media laden online bookmakers, but Labdrokes is extremely functional and quick.

Ladbrokes’ game section is fun, and covers everything from arcade games to scratch cards and quizzes. There is also a good lotto section, where you can play many options on draws from around the world. One other eye-catching section is “The Pools”, that somewhat blast from the past which you can still play by picking 11 score draws from the weekend’s football. All you need is eight correct and you can be well in amongst the money. This was a nice feature to find, and cruising through the bets for the busy football schedule over the week, it was easy to rack up some tantalising wagers.

Opening an account with Ladbrokes is quick and easy, and of course they want to welcome you with a little incentive. Create yourself an account, and when you place a bet to the value of £10, then Ladbrokes will match that with a Free Bet, as a way of saying welcome to their online bookmaking services. Check out their website and see how you can make the most of your online betting experience.
