Bet365 Poker Review
: Accepts USA? No
Bet365, formerly a member of the Prima Network, have continued to build a solid poker room after moving to the iPoker network late into 2007. They have supplied players with fantastic promotions, a better, cleaner software and customer support any company would be proud of. The reasons mentioned above, are the main factors as to why Bet 365 are becoming a leading room in the poker industry.
Bet 365 has continually increased traffic since their move and also benefited from the traffic supplied from other sites on the network which is a major factor for players as there is always a game available. The iPoker network is the third most populated network or room on the internet which is huge credit to them as they do not allow US players and the competitors above them do.
Also around the world, Bet 365 is more commonly known for their casino and sports book rather then their poker site. It is looked highly upon by big time casino players and if you like the option of having a side bet on a sports game, Bet 365 has the option for you to do just that. Overall Bet 365 has grown tremendously since their move and there are no signs of this stopping. Visit Bet365
As we mentioned above, Bet 365 offers great promotions for players and they do not disappoint with their initial deposit bonus. Players can expect a 200% bonus up to $600 when they make their first deposit. This is significantly higher then offered at most rooms and is a big attraction to new players. If you are unsure of how these promotions work, to take advantage of the maximum $600 bonus, you must deposit $300.
Clearing the bonus is pretty easy for moderate volume players. For each 1,000 points you earn, $10 of your bonus is cleared and paid into your account. Also if the bonus wasn’t enough Bet 365 also double the amount of your bonus you have cleared each week. For example, if you have cleared $100 of your bonus within the last week, Bet 365 will double that and credit you a total of $200 into your balance. The payments are made each Monday. Visit Bet365
Bet 365 offer numerous promotions but their most profitable and popular among players is their VIP rewards programme. In this promotion, players are rewarded for their loyalty to Bet 365 and depending on the amount of points they earn, are branded with a rank which enables them to claim the benefits of that rank. The rankings differ from “Graduate” to “Master of Poker”. Benefits range from merit point cash outs to having the ability to contact a member from the Bet 365 support team to discuss possible offers supplied to them.
Other promotions ran by Bet 365 include a cash race in which $40,000 is up for grabs, Tournament leader board challenges ran each month with increasing amounts of money on offer and the refer-a-friend promotion where players get rewarded by getting their friends to play at Bet 365. Visit Bet365
As you can expect with Bet 365 being apart of the iPoker network, their software is second to none. Almost every aspect of the site is geared towards user-friendliness and even the most computer illiterate of people won’t have too many problems working their way around the software.
Once into the lobby the user just has to navigate, using the tabs to the side of the software, to view what type of games they would like. Players can also filter out results they do not want to view such as full games.
When into a game, Bet 365 have ensured standards are kept high. Players can play poker in comfort, as the tables are easy on the eye and remain that way even if mult-tabling. Players also have the option of showing avatars, which can be selected from a extensive list from the lobby. Quick access to features such as player notes, stats from the current sessions and hand histories are a major plus for players. Visit Bet365
Competition found on the iPoker network is that of a low standard. Numerous players believe it has the highest population of fish on the internet and it is clear that any decent player can easily make a profit on the site. Play at the lower and some of the middle limit games are fish ridden. Once into the higher limits you will find significantly less fish but they are still around. Visit Bet365
Bet 365 prides itself on its support so you can expect any problem you may encounter to be dealt with efficiently and in a helpful manner. Players can communicate with support through telephone, call-back feature in which you request a member of support call you at a suitable time, fax, e-mail and post although from the list we wouldn’t recommend this option.
