Some of the sports that the market offers include basketball, Aussie rules, boxing, football, greyhounds, ice hockey, MMA, horse racing, eSports, cycling, motor sports, politics, golf, netball, tennis, and many others.

You will find events such as World Cup finals, yachting and squash as well as special events that center on film and TV. However, as a UK based firm, they mainly concentrate on UK fixtures, with horse racing and football taking the lead. Football games can have hundreds of betting lines, including some that are hard to find anywhere else, like whether the third official will add any time and how much that could be.

Karamba have designed their sportsbook as one product from a whole portfolio of offers, so players can easily click over the casino for a few card games or scratch cards.

Karamba have decent Odds each day on every UK and Irish greyhound or horse race. This is applicable to each way, multiple and single bets on each succeeding race. For instance, if you wager on a greyhound that wins at a starting price of 5/1, but was placed at 5/2 earlier, you still get better value odds. On this bet, it would net you an extra £25 if you entered a £10 bet. If you enjoy national racing this is a great offer.

When it comes to odds, Karamba has got a fair status across the sportsbook, despite the fact that they concentrate more on football. The odds will not always be the best round, but they are competitive and a number of enhanced odds deals can increase their value. One type is the price boost where a list of odds is boosted right before a game. This could be a specific striker to score and his team to win and the odds could move from 5/1 to 7/1.

In-play Experience

Karamba offers a good live in-play betting service. Players can view some of the current live options available on the landing page. From there, you can see a current fixture and all of its markets to get to the heart of the event. The live in-play betting at Karamba is very straightforward and simple. There are no flashy graphics or anything like that; it only displays the score and the list of markets. When it comes to the football matches, you get stats as you go along to help you out, but this is not available on all sports.

The site also offers a cash-out feature on most football markets as well and few horse races and Wimbledon tennis and darts betting markets. The cash out feature allows money back before the event is over, players are offered a settlement fee, a price at which they have the option of opting out of the bet. For example, if you stand to win £10 on your bet, you might be offered an early cash out of $5. Even if you were likely to lose the bet, the cash out prevents your exposure and you can take the cash out money.

The cash out is offered as part of in-play or live betting with odds being determined by the actual events of the live fixture. As such the odds, and the amount on offer by cashing out can be very unpredictable especially towards the end of the fixture.

Karamba doesn’t offer a live streaming service to its customers.
