BetEzyBetezy is often referred to as a 'white label' bookmaker owing to there desire to run several different sites with different names (OverTheOdds, Bunny Bet, Sharksbet, TitanBet, KnightsBet etc) all off the exact same software and platform, essentially one is exactly the same as the other, and all bets are placed through the same platform. The interesting thing about Betezy is that their markets and odds are an exact copy of the TAB.

Betezy's claim is that they always offer better prices than the TAB, and this holds true. If the TAB is betting $1.90 for one team, Betezy is $1.91. Generally at the lower end of the market they offer 1c over the TAB, which is increase to a little more as the price increase, leading to some odds prices like $12.04! Certainly the depth of their sport offering is impressive as it is a straight copy from the TAB markets. But these small increased prices from the TAB don't cover the fact that in general Betezy offer some of the poorer value sports prices as far as corporate bookmakers go.

One of the other issues with Betezy is their wagering platform is quite clunky for the punter, as with a straight copy from the TAB site navigating around the website and placing bets can be difficulty and slow, as certainly the ordering of events on their site doesn't follow the most logical pattern, leaving punters to scratch their heads at times.

As far as the racing side of things go, Betezy offer Best of 3 Totes, as well as Top Fluc (one of the few products on the site which isn't from the TAB) as well as on special race days "PowerPlays" which can included 10c to 30c above the Best Of 3 Totes product, certainly a good offering on short priced horses, as the difference between $1.40 and $1.50 can be quite substantial, even if it doesn't sound like much.

Betezy offers seemingly fluctuating sign-ups bonus, up to $1,000 (which can in fact be negotiable), although annoyingly you are forced to place them in $100 lots. They have a well staffed call centre, meaning minimal waiting time, although some operators can be unfamiliar to with the gambling process and punting vernacular.

In short, if you enjoy betting with the TAB you'll enjoy betting with Betezy more as you get more bang for your buck.

Betezy quotes North Melbourne as a 41.14 shot to win the AFL flag this year; they go 8.03 about Phil Mickelson in the US Masters, but do not have a State of Origin market yet.
