What a great start to the 2017 AFL season. Sure there were some upsets but that’s the name of the game when it comes to any form of sports betting. You win some and you lose some. I know that, as long as I win more than I lose and I enjoy the extra thrill the bet puts on the game then it’s all good. :tup: Check out my last post to see the results of the round 1 tipping. Now it’s time to check out Fortuna’s AFL round 2 2017 tips.

OK, we have our AFL Round 2 2017 Tips at hand and we also have the odds offered by my favourite online sports betting sites. Next thing to consider before placing a bet is whether or not there are any specials being offered by those sites. William Hill has their “Get up to $50 back in bonus bets if your team loses by 32 points or less” deal. That was very tempting until I noticed it excluded SA, WA & NSW residents! Man, that really sucks.
Sportsbet had their Power Play option. Hitting the Power Play button gives you even better odds.
Couldn’t find any applicable promotions on Bet365.
In the end I decided to go with Sportsbet because I had the most money with them. I went with a multibet because multi-bets have a better payout than your everyday head to head bet. You can read all about multi-bets here.
You can see my actual multi-bet over there on the right. A $10 outlay will net me $41.72 if I win.
I’d love to hear of any bets that you’re placing.
EDIT: Million Dollar Tipping: Shit!! I forgot all about the Sportsbet Million Dollar Tipping competition. I forgot about it last week and I almost forgot about it this week. Luckily I remembered and I entered my NRL and AFL tips giving me two chances of winning $10,000! Man, wouldn’t it be great to actually win both?
