As if to prove that sports betting has never been more exciting, the US Open begins shortly, with BookieSmash tennis writer Toby Castro hand-picking the best odds and lines to make your tournament tick, in both the men's and women's draws.
Particularly in the men's tournament, the field is wide open, and although Novak Djokovic will rightly go into the Grand Slam as the favorite, there are always many surprises, twists and turns in Grand Slam tennis.
The cricket season also continues, and if you're an England fan you'll be glued to the one-day side's matches against Australia. However, not everyone loves cricket like some people at BookieSmash do - and this is something you might want to review, given the number of great betting returns you can get from each and every game of cricket. With so much at stake, and so much to bet on, now is the perfect time to find out why cricket excites so many people.
Take a look at our four reasons why you ought to follow the sport.
The football juggernaut rolls on, although this week and next it's not the usual suspects in club football, but they, plus other players from leagues around Europe and the world, are playing for their countries in order to qualify for Euro 2016 in France. England manager Roy Hodgson has already told the media his team can win the trophy - but this qualifying tournament does not make it easy.
In such an easy group, betting on England is more difficult to express as a value proposition. For that reason, we've picked out four other big matches taking place that are worth betting, and we explain what it is that makes them so ripe for a good return on your deposit. With top bets and picks, you can improve your knowledge of the international football landscape by reading our preview here.
Arguably the biggest news in football this week came with the closure of the summer transfer window. Some players got the moves they desired, while others found their way blocked by the small matter of chairmen wanting to hold them to their contracts. Saido Berahino may be considering a strike, but while he is under contract at West Bromwich Albion, even in the wake of Tottenham Hotspur's failed bids, this looks like a fruitless task.
The transfers that happened, and those that did not, could change the form and fortunes of teams up and down the Premier League. This will inevitably change your betting too. Take a look at how we think the transfer window has moved your goalposts.
