Does the TAB have esports betting?

Tabcorp (also known as TAB) is the biggest betting company in Australia, offering betting markets on a range of different sports around the world, including esports. TAB regularly offers esports betting markets and odds on individual matches and tournaments throughout the year. However, due to horse racing and sports being the main focus of the betting company, they appear to lack the variety that other esports betting sites do in Australia. In this guide, you will find details on TAB esports betting, what they offer, where you can find a TAB outlet, and what other betting companies offer esports betting.

TAB retail outlets in Australia

Tabcorp has TAB retail outlets in just about every pub and club that has a gambling licence in Australia, with over 4,000 venues spread out across the country. Bettors are able to place cash and in-person bets at a TAB outlet, with TAB machines and tellers taking bets on every market, including esports.

TAB esports betting can be done at both a retail outlet and online, with many gamblers choosing to use the TAB website or app to place bets on most of their markets.

TAB esports review

TAB is one of the most prominent wagering brands in Australia, but how do they stack up against other Australian online bookmakers when it comes to esports? We will answer this in our TAB esports review.

TAB, like the other bookmakers in Australia, has got a very functional website, outstanding betting apps and a rock solid reputation, in terms of paying players and licensing.

But when it comes to esports betting, TAB is not as strong as some bookies down under, with it clearly not a focal point for this racing and sports specialist.

Included in the esports coverage on the TAB website are mainly the major leagues. For instance, at the time of last updating this TAB esports review, they only had one esports game with betting available, with this being League of Legends. Included in the LoL markets were only the LEC, LCK, LPL, and LCS.

In contrast, another Aussie bookie, bet365, has got upwards of 13 different esports games available to bet on, at exactly the same time. This just highlights how TAB fall down when it comes to esports betting.

Our other major beef with TAB’s esports betting section, is that when they offer markets on an esport, they do not have as many bet options as their competitors. Using the same League of Legends example as above, TAB had six different betting markets on a match, while bet365 had over 15 on exactly the same fixture.

These examples are probably the extreme ends of the spectrum, with most Australian bookmakers sitting somewhere in-between TAB and bet365’s coverage of esports.

Just be aware, like all Aussie bookies, TAB follows the industry standards and will make you verify your identity. This can often be done using the details you provide, but if there are any issues, you may need to provide additional documents.

The full list of TAB payment option include:

• Paypal

Do TAB or corporate bookmakers have better esports markets?

Although the TAB does offer esports betting, their lack of variety and markets for several esports games is what makes them less desirable for an esports punter. Other corporate bookmakers like Picklebet, Dabble, Bet365 and Unibet offer a bigger range of esports betting markets, with several markets on offer for individual matches.

• Dabble

  Dabble is quickly becoming one of the top bookmakers in Australia as they offer plenty of betting markets for sports and horse racing. Even though they don’t have a website, their app is very easy to use and helps them focus on a younger demographic of bettors, much like esports does.

  While Dabble is known for promoting their racing and sports markets, they also provide odds for a variety of popular esports titles. Although they don’t offer outright odds for the top esports tournaments, they do have markets for every game in major events and qualifiers. Dabble esports review.
