Content Updates
There have been no new bookies reviewed this week, but one is on our radar.
That bookie is Bet Ahoy. Next week we'll be going through it and give it a full review, test out everything and assess any offers and promos that it has. BetAhoy is an independent bookie, which is always good to see, that launched at the turn of the year, so it'll be interesting seeing what it's offering.
We've also updated a few of our Learn pages, offering helpful betting advice. These include Golf Betting Advice, Best Bookmakers for Cash Back, Cricket Betting for Beginners and Why do bookmakers ask for 'Proof of Funds'?
Our news series continues to examine trends in the UK sports betting industry. This week's two pieces, which have gone live, are:
Is Market Saturation Raising Standards Across UK Bookmakers?
Is Trust Now Outweighing Promotional Scale in UK Betting?
What's Happening Next Week
This weekend there is live racing from Lingfield Park, Ascot and Haydock Park, the Play-Offs across the football league, Challenge Cup semi-finals and the Giro D'Italia. Our news series, examining UK betting trends, keeps ticking over, and their will be another full rundown in this afternoon's Betting Brief newsletter.
