SPORTS BETTING SITE FOR MANSION CLOSES

Indonesian owned online gambling group drops sportsbetting in favour of betting exchange operations

It looks as if the [denied] rumours back in January that Mansion group intended to drop sportsbetting (see InfoPowa News bulletins at the time) had some substance after all; this week the group closed its international sportsbetting operations in favour of betting exchange options.

Back then, the word was that Mansion intended to restructure with the emphasis on land and online casino operations after putting its sportsbook facilities off-limits to US players at the end of that month.

Fast forward to today, and a notification this week on the Mansion site redirecting sportsbet clients to the Mansion betting exchange facilities and advising that: "Effective from 13 February Mansion will suspend service of our traditional sportsbook product in favour of our innovative Mansion exchange, a peer-to-peer sports-betting platform."

Betters are invited "...to join the thousands of Members who have already discovered the value of peer-to-peer Exchange betting. As part of Mansion's ongoing commitment to offering you hassle free and best value betting we have enhanced our Mansion Exchange to incorporate our Sportsbook."

The advisory goes on to point out the advantages of exchange betting as:

Better odds
Choice and control
Multiple Point Spreads & Totals
Avoiding the margins of a sportsbook
Welcome Winners
Quick Payouts
Easy Usability
