* Table games, racing and sports betting are most popular among online gamblers;
* The majority continue to access games via laptops or desktop devices with a small percentage using mobile devices;
* The majority of those that participated in the study say that they play online because of the convenience factor;
* The majority also said that they participate in online gambling through several international operators and more than half say that they have just one account at one online operator.

This study is basically saying at the average Aussie male that plays online spends approximately $70.08 per month gambling mostly on poker, horse racing and sports betting. I would agree on the type of gambling, but these men are said to have a yearly income of between A$90,000 to A$119,000 and that just make me think that...

Since they gamble on mostly poker, the horses and sports betting I can see they probably use one of the major operators like Bodog that can accommodate each of the various areas they pursue. All in all I think it was an interesting and accurate study.
