William Hill Sport Betting’s Offer

November 14th, 2008 -- Posted in fun games | No Comments »

William Hill, a popular and respected British online gambling site, has revealed its plans to use new sports betting software on their site. The company has also stated that the gross win from sports betting will increase by 50%.

December 2008 is the most probable date of launching the new software platform. The platform is developed by UK-based Orbis. William Hill expects that at this time the gross win will increase by 5-10%. It is not impossible, as the online gambling site has a broad reach in the United Kingdom.

Orbis presence in the online gambling business dates back to its beginnings, i.e. the mid-nineties. Since that time the company has created an all-including gaming platform, which offers not only sports betting, but also casino games, fixed odds games and exchange betting.

Among online gambling sites powered by Orbis there are such well-known brands as: Blue Square, Ladbrokes and Victor Chandler. Orbis has also joined with Wager Works Software, which is becoming one of the top online casino software providers in the UK.

With the launching of the new software platform, William Hill’s sports betting services will be considerably improved and innovated. Obviously, sports betting is not the only product offered by William Hills. Among other attractions there are virtual games, online casino (powered by Cryptologic) and scratch-off tickets. Ralph Topping, the new Will Hill CEO, said that the company will no longer consider themselves as bookmakers for the land-based sports betting business. It looks like William Hill is certainly on the rise, and this trend is expected to continue.
