Summary (4.33)

Betfair's biggest selling point is, believe it or not, sports betting. Betfair operates the world's biggest sportsbook, and as all dedicated poker players know, this often results in juicy and prosperous poker games. The poker tables are filled with Internet gamblers with little, or no, poker experience. If you are a decent poker player, who has adapted a winning strategy, you should easily beat most low- and mid-limit games. Betfair offers: Texas Hold'em, Omaha, Omaha Hi/Lo, Seven-Card Stud and Seven-Card Stud Hi/Lo. Hold'em is offered in fixed-, pot-, and no-limit; Omaha in fixed- and pot limit; and Stud only in fixed-limit. The player traffic isn't too shabby, but it isn't massive either. During peak hours, there are about 2,700 cash-game players active. The software, developed by Betfair, might not be the most beautiful in the online-poker industry. But the games run without any delays and the tables are easily overviewed. You are allowed to take player notes and there is some statistical information that are of help when looking for games to participate in or when you want to analyze your own play. Betfair offers a good sign-up bonus and hosts quite a few high-valued tournaments
