All discussions about the William Hill website must begin and
end with the Goliath. The Goliath consists of 247 bets, one each of all
possible two through nine team parlays over nine betting selections. While I am
strident in maintaining that you've got little to no hope of winning a Goliath
bet, after all, who can have a prayer of getting the edge on nine selections
all at one time, the adrenaline rush associated with making 247 bets in one
click makes up for it all. And it doesn't have to cost you much. William Hill's
online website accepts minimum bets starting at one penny, so you can feasibly
get this monumental slice of action for the bargain price of $2.47, or
£2.47. And that'll make your day more interesting. Just calculating your
potential win could take a good half hour.
The Will Hill website
recently unveiled a new look, designed to make wagering quicker, easier, and
more flexible. I quite like it. While the house middles are less generous than
some other sites, Will Hill makes up for this by taking bets on anything and
everything, including obscure first round tennis match-ups that other sites
don't touch. And the repricing every day of all multi-day outright events. Will
Hill rules in most sports dictate, however, that uncompleted matches due to a
player retiring from injury become void. Like if you know that Marat Safin has
a strained back that restricts his serve when he's playing the Spanish flea,
Juan Carlos Ferrero. And Safin gets down a set and a break and then says he
can't play any more and retires from the match. If you had bet against Safin at
William Hill, in that case your bet would be called off. Whereas some other
sites pay on the player to go through to the next round.
 I like to bet mostly parlays
and underdogs at William Hill. I find that they are a little more generous with
their underdog prices and a little bit tighter when you are betting on the
favorite. Will Hill is in my mind the leader in online in the run betting, not
counting the highly specialized World Sports Exchange.
I wouldn't make
this my only book, but I wouldn't want to be without it. I have yet to figure
out how they determine the maximum bet on an event, but it is clearly stated
after you choose your selection and before you make the actual wager, which
avoids the wondering you get at some sites about whether or not a big bet will
be accepted. As far as credibility and fairness goes, I rate them as beyond
gold. William Hill is regulated and long established, and pays winners. When I
had a problem it was resolved in good time, but customer service put the burden
on me to contact them several times to solve it, when I felt the burden should
have been on them to contact me. But they are quick to respond to an email and
resettle fairly. All in all, a good online wagering choice. |

This site shows how simple design makes life
easy for the user and how to set up simple 'frames' web pages (split screen)
that give you what you want. Its really quite easy to navigate and you opt for
decimal odds display on individual sports which could be very useful if you
want to compare prices. Nice finish with displaying your max. bet size, saves
waiting around to be turned down!
