The countdown to the much-anticipated Euro 2012 is nearly over, as football fans from across the continent and the rest of the world turn their attention to Poland and Ukraine.

The action gets underway on 8th June as the Poles and Greeks face off in Warsaw: a meeting of joint hosts and 2004 winners. It’s the beginning of a feast of football with two matches being played daily for 12 days straight. You can increase your enjoyment of every single game when you bet In-Play with bet365.

As always, there’ll be plenty to choose from with over 60 In-Play markets available throughout the game including Next Goal, Match Goals, Total Corners, Half-Time Result, Full-Time Result and much more.

There’s a whole host of intriguing matches taking place throughout the group stage, with Germany facing Portugal, while the England team must pit its wits against rivals France without the suspended Wayne Rooney.

If any of these fantastic matches fail to deliver and end goalless, you can still enjoy the result with bet365’s superb Bore Draw Money Back offer.

Simply place a pre-match Correct Score, Half-Time/Full-Time or Scorecast bet and if the game finishes 0-0 then bet365 will refund all losing bets on these markets.

With the excitement of the European Championship coming round only once every four years, you won’t want to miss out on a fabulous opportunity to enjoy betting In-Play at bet365.

Betclic, a well-established internet casino, poker and sportsbook company in the Betclic Everest Group, has successfully achieved the tough professional standards required to gain accreditation with the independent standards and player protection organisation eCOGRA.

Announcing the successful accreditation, eCOGRA chief executive Andrew Beveridge said that Betclic joins an elite group of 146 online gambling sites that have demonstrated a practical commitment to higher standards of operational conduct, fair gaming, integrity and player service through the organisation’s Safe and Fair seal, which Betclic is now entitled to display on its websites.

"The Betclic management is highly experienced and well established in the industry," Beveridge said this week. "Betclic was the founding company when the Mangas Gaming Group, which subsequently became the Betclic Everest Group, was formed.

"It has also achieved compliance with the European Gaming and Betting Association’s (EGBA) standards, and it is therefore not surprising that the management met all of our requirements despite a rigorous on-site inspection and review process."

The audit and inspection leading to accreditation was carried out by Bradley Khoury, a Chartered Accountant and Information Systems Auditor, who reported to the eCOGRA Seals Compliance Committee: "The cooperation and dedication of the Betclic compliance personnel accompanied by unrestricted access to knowledgeable staff and transparent information facilitated a highly comprehensive review. The organisation demonstrated strong resilience and noteworthy commitment to compliance."

Lisa Lombardi, the Licensing and Compliance Director for Betclic, said that the accreditation initiative had been both informative and challenging.

"We consider the investment in time and resources to have been very well spent, giving us the opportunity to review all of our procedures and gain the benefit of a totally independent, practical and expert view of the manner in which we conduct every aspect of our business," she said.
