Betway Poker
Betway Poker is the newest poker site created by the Microgaming network. It has great graphics, speed, and accuracy. The site offers not only poker, but many other games including sports betting, casino games, and skill games. The site is expected to be just as successful as all of Microgaming’s other sites. Betway Poker has several different games, limits, and stakes to choose from which makes it one of the fastest growing sites in the industry.
Betway Poker Games:
- Texas Hold’em
- Omaha
- Omaha High-Lo
- Seven-Card Stud
- Five-Card Draw
- Five-Card Stud
The site offers a very extensive range of stakes starting at 2¢/5¢ and going all the way up to $200/$400 dollars. This makes it a great place for players of all experience and income levels to play. Betway Poker offers games with No-Limit, Pot-Limit, and Fixed-Limit betting. Full, shorthanded, and heads-up tables are also available.
The experience player will be glad to hear that most of the play at the tables is very loose and passive. Ring games have viewed-flop averages above 55% and peak hours see about 2,400 real-money players and 13,000 tournament players. The player base is still rising. Since its inception, Betway Poker has released several campaigns to draw in new players.
One of the biggest promotions is the sign up bonus with a 500% match up to $6,000 dollars. This ensures that many new players will be at the tables, and the wins will be big. Other features of the site include turbo tables, player statistics, and guaranteed high-stakes tournaments. The sight also supports the import of Hold’em tournament and ring game data to Poker Tracker.
For a brand new site, Betway Poker is doing very well. It does, however, have a few negatives. Like most sights, it does not allow U.S. players in real money games. The lobby is difficult for most people to understand, and Seven-Card stud is only available in a high stakes version. These few negatives are popular with most sights, although they can still be improved.
Betfair Poker Tournament Play:
- Buy-ins starting at $1 and can go into the hundreds of dollars
- Inexperienced players in low and mid range buy-ins
- $175,000 weekly guarantee from tournaments
- $60,000 and $40,000 tournaments
- Daily qualifiers for big pots
Betfair Poker is a combination of all of the best aspects of other poker sites. The low buy-ins and huge sign up bonuses are constantly attracting new players, most of them with little or no experience in the game. Without much trouble, an experienced player would easily be able to take a lot of money away from just about any table. Even in the high stakes games, play is often loose and passive.
