Adams moved to ((Australia)) from ((England)) at the age of 16 and worked in many positions including ((publican)), ((stock broker)) and ((baker)). In ((1881)) Adams who worked as a ((publican)) in ((Sydney)) took bets on horses which could be considered the start of the gambling company. + The history of Tattersall's can be traced back to ((George Adams)) in ((1881)).

He set up his first operation there and eventually the company grew/developed in other states. ==Controversy== ==Controversy== - Being a gambling company ((Tattersalls)) is subject to controversy. While the company has often enjoyed support from both the ((Victoria, Australia|Victoria))n and ((Tasmania))n governments, gambling has become a problem in both these states. Neither state has banned advertising of Tattersalls products despite the fact they run advertisements cautioning engagement in gambling. The company could be subject to legal battles, some complain about the odds of games. Tattersalls generally only returns 60% of weekly revenue back into the prize pools (some is saved for a ((Australian Lottery Games#Super Draw|Super Draw))). It is estimated that 1/3 of ((Victoria, Australia|Victorians)) play Tattersalls games each week. This rising in the ((Australian Lottery Games#Super Draw|Super Draws)). In ((2004)) Tattersalls changed the appearance of their tickets and replaced the outlet machines across Australia. The new tickets they developed were considerably longer and the numbers were squashed smaller; making them harder to see for older players ( whom make up a large proportion of their customers). Other people complained that Tattersalls tickets looked to similar to supermarket receipts and were being thrown away. Their exclusive licenses to many gambling operations are constantly under review by governments. + Being a gambling company Tattersall's is subject to controversy.

This created effective ' Tattersalls heirs '; future generations inherited a share in the companies profits. This was sometimes thought of as being unfair seeing people inherited the profits of a multi-million dollar company simply through birth. In ((2005)) the company decided to list on the ((Australian Stock Exchange)) " Tattersalls heirs" were now allowed the sell their stake in the company and for the first time the public could buy into it. After the listing on the stock exchange local newspapers and media listed the names of these "Heirs". + When Tattersall's was founded, ((George Adams)) structured the company so the original workers ' families would inherit the profits.
