General Information Canbet was founded in 1995 and is licensed in the United Kingdom and Australia. It is a wholly owned subsidiary of the international Gaming and Wagering Company IAS (International All Sports Limited), which is listed on the Australian Stock Exchange. Bets Offered The range of sports available at Canbet extends from soccer, tennis, golf and motor racing to basketball, baseball, hockey, American football, Aussie Rules (Australian football), cricket, rugby, boxing and snooker. Especially worth noting is the extensive betting offer for soccer (football). Wagers on international horse races are welcome at Canbet as well. In addition to bets offered on sports, Canbet also provides various wagers on events in the world of politics and entertainment, such as on the outcome of political elections and the winner of prestigious awards. Apart from simply betting on the winner or loser of various sporting events, betters at Canbet have the choice between various alternative bets such as over/under bets, half-time bets and wagers using the Asian handicap. Live bets are also included in the comprehensive range of bets Canbet offers. They are available for soccer (football), rugby, cricket and for certain NFL (National Football League) games. Games and more… Also offered at Canbet are a casino (Canbet Casino) and a well-frequented poker room (Canbet Poker), where you'll find everything from explanations of different poker variations to an entire poker school. In the menu option "games," Canbet users will find a virtual gambling game called "Football Global." The game simulates a football season lasting 38 weeks. With around 50 different football leagues from around the world to choose from, players can bet on the overall winner. Every 90 seconds a new match starts and an entire season lasts one hour. Information about the Website Currently, the Canbet website is available in English and Chinese (as of October, 2008). Because the legal situation in the United States forbids American banks and credit card companies from transferring money to online bookmakers, Canbet does not accept wagers from US residents (Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act 2006). Canbet users located in Australia also face legal restrictions. The "Interactive Gambling Act 2001" has outlawed placing bets on sporting events that are already in progress. This means that bettors in Australia may not use the live betting feature on Canbet.
