BetFair Poker Review ... Very popular UK based poker site with good UK and European traffic & games. BetFair left the cryptologic network and now using it's own stand-alone software. Heavy promotion in the UK and to it's existing base of sportsbook bettors at the BetFair exchange means the average player at the site is weak and therefore has easy to win poker games. Good numbers of easy games and weak beatable players is probably BetFair poker's best selling point. While the software is ok, being reliable and inoffensive its really nothing special.
Betfair is NOT open to US players and is a European focussed poker room, this is great if you are a UK or European poker player but not so good if you are in other time zones as the player traffic falls off outside of Euro peak times.
BetFair Bonus ... up to $500 bonus. Min deposit $20. Bonus is cleared at $10 each time you generate 400 Betfair Points.
Fish ... 8/10 Players are weak as they come from the sportsbook side of the business.
Software ... Average looking but very good for multi-tabling.
Players ... 1,200 Easy to win site with very weak players.
Games ... Texas Holdem, omaha hi / lo & omaha hi. Not the same broad range as some sites but most action generally is Holdem or Omaha online so not a problem unless you like Stud, Draw or HORSE games.
Promotions ... Earn Betfair Poker points based on the rake from your play, points can then be used on special points tournaments or to get better odds on sports betting.
Tournaments ... Good range of tournaments including over 30 weekly freerolls. BetFair is particularly good for live tournament satellites like the WSOP, EPT, WPT and most significantly as sponsor satellites for the WSOPE (World Series of Poker Europe). Regular daily guaranteed tournaments including its featured weekly $66,000 guaranteed on Sundays.
Help ... Phone and Email support is reliable.
Security ... Very solid owned by the biggest sports exchange in the world.
Deposit ... Neteller, Moneybookers, Visa, Mastercard, Delta, Solo, Maestro, ClickandBuy, bank transfer & cheque.
Cashout ... Neteller, MoneyBookers, debit cards, credit cards, bank transfer and cheque.
