Casinomeister Australia - for Punters Down Under

What is Casinomeister Australia?

Australians love to gamble – just as much as their counterparts in the good ol’ USA. I don’t know if it’s the pioneer approach to life – y’know – taking chances? Or if it's the glamorization of the outlaw – the rebel; these things the Yanks have in common with the Aussies.

One other thing that they have in common with one another is that their governments have moved to prohibit online gambling. In the US, only three States have been able to successfully regulate and offer online gambling for its residents (Nevada, New Jersey and Delaware). And in Australia? Well, none really.

Unless you consider sports betting – or parimutuel betting - online gambling. Australia does have Sportsbetting licensed in the Northern Territory – where Bet365, William Hill, Betfair and a number of other betting companies are available for their local punters.

Unfortunately for a pokie player, or someone wanting to play at a real online casino with real casino games, you’re pretty much SOL. It’s a true Vegemite sandwich. I’ve eaten Vegemite – and it a bona fide gag reflex food item.

For a serious player of online casinos, sportsbetting and anything else comparable, what Australia has to offer is not too impressive. Especially if you think organized sports suck. And personally, I would rather watch paint dry on a wall. To me sportsbetting can be rife with corruption since players can be bought as opposed to casino software. You can’t affect a random number generator, nor the RTP of a slot game when the software is served from properly vetted licensing jurisdictions.

Here at Casinomeister.com.au – we will try to provide our Aussie cousins information where they can play – and where they can’t. And to update you all with Australian news and reviews.

Legal Online Gambling in Australia

It's slim pickin's for our cousins down under. Gone are the days of Microgaming, NetEnt, Playtech and any casino software company that wants to remain viable in the rest of the world that is able to license proper casino games. But have no fear - there are a number of companies that are able to take Australian bets legally - if you are into Sportsbetting of course. And if you are, you have come to the right place.
