King of UK Poker rooms, Betfair Poker enjoys leadership in the UK online poker rooms. A Pioneer in betting and now leading the corwd in Poker, Betfair Poker is mainly present in UK and serves UK market. With aggressive marketing strategy and media campaigns it has been able to grab all awards on the stake.

Payment methods are few, but the main payment options you would need are there. Of course, you are limited to a few countries so that could present a problem along the way.

It seems there have been some bumps and bruises along the way, but in the end BetFair has shown to be quite a popular website within it’s three listed countries. It has even gone as far as being given “The Queen’s Awards For Enterprise”. A bit confusing when you first try to find what you are looking for, but just give time and you’ll get the hang of where to find things and how to play. It’s a delightful barrage of poker games, but mostly casino games that will ignite even the most common of players minds.

Pros:

Market Leader
Big Guaranteed tournaments

Cons:

Limited Payment/Withdrawal options
Main focus in UK only

All I can say is wow. Never have I ever been more confused about where to go to find just a simple poker game. Betfair Poker seems to bordering the lines of weird and weirder. Yes, I’ll admit there are some really great things about it, but there are also plenty of bad things to compliment those as well.

UP’s:  For starters, I will give them this: the layout is great. The color scheme is great. It’s definitely different from most sites and gives it a great, fresh feeling that no other site has seemed to produce.

The software is easy enough to download. BetFair gets something right with actually showing you the step-by-step process of how to download install, register, and start playing with the software.

Casino games were a great accomplishment of this website. Having more than 40 classic casino games was unbelievable. I don’t know of any other website that offer’s that variety. Believe me when I say, if you love casino games, this is definitely the place for you.

Besides the casino games, you’ll be happy to know that this poker website has taken it a bit further by presenting the world with online betting. Bet on races, horse races, even sporting events.

Promotions are also a great item offered on this website. Practically every page you look on contains some type of promotion that is indeed, very enticing the eye and to the pocket.

DOWN’s: Even those Einstein’s of the world are more than likely going to have a problem with finding the information they want on Betfair. I simply wanted to play a good game of poker but that was about to change when I realized I had no clue where to look on this site. You would think the tab labeled “Poker Games” would be a dead-on answer to the problem, but it wasn’t. I clicked on the tab and was even more confused. They are no straightforward ways to find regular poker games.

As I stated above, it’s not hard at all to install the BetFair software, but you will have a hard time trying to find it within these huddled pages.

Payment methods are also very few and far between. They have a limited way of paying which also is limiting their amount of players. It’s not very smart if you ask me. Top poker site have the availability of infinite number of ways to pay. No matter the language you speak or the country your in, other site have those options available.

If you think this was bad enough, BetFair does it again. If you’re looking for a great way to roll some high stakes games, you’ve come to the wrong place. As stated on their website, BetFair isn’t interested in high stakes, just raw talent. A good poker site should concentrate on both.

Overall, I think you should check this website out, but don’t be surprised if you can’t find anything of interested on it or start pulling your hair out because you get so confused.

Just a mere fabrication of the worlds desires in poker, BetFair is standing firm in it’s monotonous reign over some poker sites. Made solely for the English, Dutch and Italian. It seems a bit popular by most that have been with the company since the beginning, but other than that, players are not at all interested.

Betfair does not have a wide variety of poker games that will dazzle or sparkle in your eye, but they do carry more than 40 casino games. This is nothing short of astounding for a poker site to contain so many favored casino games. If nothing else, you will be able to find something within the casino game section that will tickly your fancy.

Payment methods are on the few side, but the main payment options you would need are there. Of course, you are limited to a few countries so that could present a problem along the way.

It seems there have been some bumps and bruises along the way, but in the end BetFair has shown to be quite a popular website within it’s three listed countries. It has even gone as far as being given “The Queen’s Awards For Enterprise”. A bit confusing when you first try to find what you are looking for, but just give time and you’ll get the hang of where to find things and how to play. It’s a delightful barrage of poker games, but mostly casino games that will ignite even the most common of players minds.
