Well i tried to get the No deposit bonus just then for 888 and my country is no supported? Australia that is. BUT just 4 or 5 months ago 888 just done a deal with one of australias biggest sporting cricket stars to play on there site which is Shane Warne. Why dont 888 allow australian players?

There's a huge difference between "allowing a country to play and deposit money" and "give free money to a country". The numbers show that Australia unfortunately is not among the countries where it's good business to hand out free money to get people started. Of course it varies from site to site and offer to offer, but 888 didn't want to give free money to Australia for this promotion.
what is the reason that certain site dont want players from certain areas, is it because they tend to lose the money too quickly and dont contribute enough to rake, or is it that only a small number of no depositors from that country decide to redeposit, or is it because of issues like fraud, or is it a mix of all these or finally is it something completly different
ahh so the fact that 888 is sponsoring the cricket in australia can act as a disincentive to then offer Australians no deposit bonuses, because they already have their foot in the door?

SCD, Yes - something like that. I'm not saying that is the case, but it's stuff like that. I'm pretty sure that they don't compare cricket sponsorship to BankrollMob promotions
