US sports
American sport is heavily promoted in New Zealand around the Super Bowl and the playoffs, long after most punters have gone to bed. This section looks at what lies behind those campaigns.
The NFL leads and the NBA follows; baseball (MLB) and hockey (NHL) bring up the rear. Spreads and totals are the typical markets, and New Zealand writes their prices as decimal odds.
Games held in America sit under the same prohibition as local ones, because the ban does not stop at the border. The lawful provider is TAB NZ, while offshore operators have no standing here.
