Well, they had to be the next weekly poker review, didn’t they? You’ll find me at the Betfair Poker tables regularly and as an independent poker site they are not part of any poker network. Betfair Poker has always had a solid reputation and a very active player base and is once again growing at a strong rate. With dependable software, massive promotions and access to an enormous sports exchange customer base, and a fantastic Rakeback deal Betfair Poker is becoming a major player.
Betfair Poker software
The Betfair Poker software is privately developed and offers great functionality, good playability and stability. The latest software update added the option to play up to 15 tables simultaneously, with great mini-view functionality further enhancing the multi-tabling experience.
The functionality is very good overall, with good player notes, statistics functions and a solid overall feel. The addition of a “player buddy” program, where players can analyze hand histories and replay hands, only adds to the already excellent software.
The games at Betfair Poker
The games at Betfair Poker are mainly fast and loose at low- to medium-stakes Limit and No-Limit Texas Hold’em. There are plenty of lower buy-in tournaments and freerolls with great value. Betfair Poker also offers the unique “Threedom Pass tournament,” where players can win free buy-ins to live tournaments of their choice for three years straight – something unprecedented in the industry.
The traffic volume overall is in the middle segment of the industry. Real-money player statistics as of October 2008 show 1,200 ring-game players at peak hours, and 4,000 tournament players at peak hours.
In general, Betfair Poker offers loose games and first-rate software that plays well and is updated frequently to ensure safety and stability, with little downtime as a result. The competition at Betfair Poker ranges from loose at the micro and low limits to relatively loose at higher stakes. In general, the competition is loose and passive, making the site a great place to play for skilled poker players.
The rake at Betfair Poker is at par with the industry average at 5% with a $3 maximum rake at any game. There is a “no flop, no drop” policy that lets players collect pots won pre-flop without a rake.
Rake Rebate
A rake rebate is applied for the lowest Limit games: In Limit games with a maximum of 10¢ blinds, a maximum of 10¢ is raked; in Limit games with a maximum of 20¢ blinds, a maximum of 20¢ is raked; and for Limit games with a maximum of $2 blinds, a maximum of $1 is raked. For all other limits the 5% rake is capped at $3.
The Zero Lounge
The “Zero Lounge” features a handful of games with ZERO house edge. That’s right, these aptly named “Zero Games” have no house edge; the return to players on all zero games is 100% (correct to at least 1 decimal place based on optimal player strategy, of course). Players can choose from Zero Roulette, Zero Baccarat, Zero Jacks or Better, and Zero Blackjack. If you can’t find the game you’re looking for in the Zero Lounge, don’t worry, you’re sure to find a regular version back in the Main Lounge.
In terms of software, no download is required here as games are easily played in pop-up browser windows so all you really need to get started is a Betfair account which you may already have if you’ve used any of their other services(if you’re looking to practice and play for free first, you don’t even need the account!). The software itself isn’t too shabby and is powered by Chartwell Technology which is based out of Australia.
Sign-Up Bonus
There is a wide selection of Sign Up offers available and you can select which suits you by opting in to the bonus on sign up.

Poker Bots
Another week has flown by since the last poker review. At the Weekend we’ll have a look again at a different side of the poker industry – the bot. Unlike betting exchanges no poker site allows them. But I can guarantee at many sites you’ll be playing against them! How does the saying go, if you can’t beat ’em…? Well, I’ll give you a few ideas on your options in the Poker Review at the weekend. Stay safe, play hard and win. TTFN.
