The selection of the winner is not connected to the outcome of the match.<\/p>\n<p>Similar to the Brownlow Medal ceremony, the ACMA stated it does not consider these awards to be sporting events, nor does it consider them to be random occurrences that could or could not happen in a sporting event.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, the ACMA believes that betting markets on the outcome of these awards do not fall under the betting services regulated by the IGA, and ruled that Sportsbet did not violate any betting rules.<\/p>\n<p>Sign up for the iGaming News Newsletter<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) has cleared Sportsbet of any wrongdoing after doubts were raised about the operator breaking the nation&#8217;s prohibition on in-play wagering.
