State of Origin Game 1 Preview and Promos

Our friends at Before You Bet offer Poker Asia Pacific readers a 2014 State of Origin Game 1 preview which outlines all the best betting promotions. 

It’s State of Origin time!  It’s the time of year where the excitement of rugby fans reaches fever-pitch and even grabs the attention of a few of the stubborn non-rugby followers in the Southern states!
