Richard Casino Sportsbook for Australian Punters
There is more to Richard Casino than pokies. The brand runs a full sportsbook on the same account and the same AUD balance, so you can switch from a live blackjack table to an AFL match in one click. Below is what the sportsbook covers, how live betting works, how to place a bet and which freebets you get from the welcome pack.
Welcome Pack
Inside the Sportsbook
The sportsbook has its own menu that makes it easy to find a market:
- Search: find a team, league or event by name.
- In-Play: matches that are running right now, with live odds.
- Esports: a separate section for esports events.
- Schedule: upcoming events by date.
- Results: final scores of finished events.
- Promotions: sport offers, including the Sport Promo section.
- Favorites: your saved events and leagues.
- Predictions: markets on real-world events outside sport.
Your selections go to the bet slip, and the My bets tab keeps the history of everything you have placed.
Sports and Leagues You Can Bet On
The line covers both local favourites and the biggest international competitions.
AFL, Cricket and Rugby
The sports Australians care about most are all in the line: AFL, cricket and rugby events. The sportsbook rules also cover horse racing, motorsport and netball, as well as Olympic events, so you can expect markets beyond the big three.
Live Betting In-Play
In the In-Play section, odds change as the match goes on. You choose an outcome, the price goes to the bet slip, and you confirm the stake at the current odds. Keep an eye on the promotions banner too: the sportsbook runs an "Early payouts" offer, with its own rules listed in the Sport Promo section.

Freebets and Sport Promotions
Sports fans get extra value from the welcome pack: the first four deposits each come with a freebet. OnlyWin freebets pay out only the winnings, while an AllWin freebet pays out the winnings together with the stake. Every freebet is valid for 14 days and can be placed at odds from 1.01 to 2.00.
| Deposit | Freebet | Type | Valid for |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1st | 50% freebet | OnlyWin | 14 days |
| 2nd | 30% freebet | OnlyWin | 14 days |
| 3rd | 20% freebet | OnlyWin | 14 days |
| 4th | 20% freebet | AllWin | 14 days |
Other sport offers are collected in the Sport Promo section. The casino part of the pack is described on the welcome pack page.
Predictions: Betting on Real-World Events
The Predictions section takes betting beyond sport. These are markets on real-world events in politics, entertainment, finance and culture, where you bet against the platform on a Yes or No outcome. Each market comes with a Market Rules Summary: what the event is, the timeline, the exact conditions for Yes and No, and the source used to settle the result.
Sportsbook Rules in Brief
The sportsbook has its own detailed rulebook. It covers general rules and bet types, sport-by-sport rules, including Asian handicaps, long-term antepost bets, horse racing and motorsport, and a separate set of esports rules. Before a large bet, it is worth reading the rules for that market, so you know how it will be settled.
FAQ
Do I need a separate account for sports betting?
No. The sportsbook uses the same account and AUD balance as the casino.
Can I bet in Australian dollars?
Yes. If your account currency is AUD, all stakes and winnings in the sportsbook are in AUD too.
Can I use casino bonus money on sports?
Sports betting has its own freebets in the welcome pack. Casino bonuses and their wagering are described separately in the bonus terms.
Is the sportsbook available in the app?
Yes. All sections, including In-Play and Predictions, work in the app on Android and iPhone.
Where can I find the results of settled bets?
Open My bets for your own bets, or the Results section for final scores of all events.
Bet Responsibly
Betting should stay fun. You must be 18 or older, and it is best to bet only money you can afford to lose. If you want to slow down, support can set personal limits, a cooling-off period of one day to six months or self-exclusion for six to twelve months. Read more about responsible gambling.
