Same Game Multis and their Promotions

Same Game Multis (SGM) have become increasingly popular among Australian betting sites, punters can take the opportunity to combine multiple bets within a single event. These betting products allow for more complex betting options that are a lot of fun.

Many Australian bookmakers now offer SGM options for popular sports such as football, basketball, American football, and rugby. SGMs allow for the ability to combine various markets that were previously incompatible. For example, in a football match, punters can now link outcomes such as the first goal scorer, total match goals, and the final result into a single wager.

Some common SGM combinations that Australian punters enjoy include:

1. Rugby League (NRL):
   • First try scorer + Winning margin + Total match points
   • Favourite to win + Underdog with handicap + Under/Over result
   
   
2. Australian Rules Football (AFL):
   • Match winner + Player to kick 3+ goals + Total match points
   • Favourite to win + Underdog with handicap + Under/Over result
   
   
3. Soccer:
   • Match winner + Both teams to score + Over/Under total goals
   • First goal scorer + Correct score + Number of corners
   
   
4. Basketball (NBA):
   • Game winner + Player to score 25+ points + Total game points
   
   
5. Cricket:
   • Match winner + Top batsman + Total match sixes
   
   
6. Horse Racing (Same Race Multis) :
   • Horse A to win + Horse B to finish in top 3 + Horse C to finish in top 5
   

A punter can choose the level of odds / risk they are willing to take on.
For example in the NRL SGM, if you wanted relatively higher odds you could bet with the line odds at $1.90, or use ‘pick your own line’ with lower odds say at $1.20,

However you must pay attention to the terms and conditions of the SGMs, they are different at every company. Most will have a minimum odds per leg, often at $1.2, or a total odds minimum for the whole multi, for example $2.

SGM Promotions

SGM promotions provide a safety net if a leg fails. If you only get 2 out of 3 legs in a multi (which happens bloody often for most punters !), you get a bonus bet to the value of your stake. That is a generous offer. Usually the value of the bonus bet is the same as your stake, but with a maximum of $50, you would need to check the T&Cs of the promo, which should be listed on the site in the promotions page or near where you place the bet!

So if you’re a punter that knows the game inside out, you can leverage that knowledge across a many aspects of a game, increasing your chances of a significant payout with elevated multi odds.

It’s worth noting that while SGM promotions can be exciting, they often come with higher risk due to the multiple outcomes that need to be correctly predicted.
Responsible gambling practices should always be observed, and many Australian betting sites provide tools to help manage betting activity.
To access these SGM promotions and other offers, punters typically need to create an account with a betting site. Due to Australian regulations, many promotions are only visible after logging in. This approach ensures compliance with responsible gambling guidelines while still providing value to registered customers.

As the betting landscape continues to evolve, Same Game Multi promotions are likely to remain a popular feature among Australian punters, offering an engaging way to combine multiple bets and potentially enhance the overall betting experience.
