Many others (from Europe) are so strictly regulated that they ban gambling except some mafian-monopoly firm.

Yeah Centrebet was founded in 1992, and is one of my favorite books..great website, great customer service..a bit slow on neteller and moneybookers though, because they dont perform payouts in the weekend. But during the week they are superfast. They also always talk about their high limits, so worth a try I guess. I have been able to place large stakes at least for a long period, even as a winning customer.

Australia is the only country that sportsbooks are required to have the players money of deposit 7 days a week. A marked-to-the-market procedure is done daily and sportsbooks are required to postup 100% of what they owe clients.

I think the UK looks like to me to be the most regulated.

I would never regard them as a UK book purely because they have a very "non-UK" approach to their risk and client base.

What do you mean?
Do you mean they dont limit you to $3.65 if you win a dime like bet365?

Canbet is not under Australian financial regulation.
