    Chapter 10 Introduction to sports betting and wagering 10.1 This chapter provides an introduction to sports betting and wagering in Australia. It will cover definitions and types of bets and wagers; the sporting codes and racing industries involved; the prevalence and recent growth of sports betting, including the effect of online technologies; and sports wagering providers, including corporate operators, traditional bookmakers, totalisators and betting exchanges. It will also discuss how sports betting and wagering is excluded from the Commonwealth Interactive Gambling Act 2001 (IGA) with the exception of 'in-play' betting online. The chapter will conclude with a summary of state and territory regulation of gambling services. Introduction 10.2 Sports betting, where individuals bet on the outcome of a sporting event or individual events within the context of a match, has become increasingly popular.1 The fast growth in sports betting activity in recent years, combined with the pervasive advertising of sports betting products and services during sporting broadcasts, has resulted in what some describe as the 'gamblification' of sports.2 It has also raised particular concerns this will contribute to problem gambling.3 Definitions 10.3 Sports betting can be defined as: ...the wagering on approved types of local, national or international sporting activities (other than the established forms of horse and greyhound racing), whether on or off-course, in person, by telephone, or via the internet'.4 1 The betting options available to online sports betting customers are numerous. According to Sportsbet.com.au: 'Any day of the week, 24 hours a day, punters can place single bets - head-to- head, pick the score, line and margin bets to name but a few.
