Betfred poker was launched back in 2005, Betfred is one of the biggest bookmakers in the business so it was no shock to find out that eventually they would like to try their hand at online poker, you may also find it no shock that with such a big company you once they decided to create a online poker room they were going to do it properly graphics are nice there is a good range of games and software is very user friendly these are all factors that make it an ideal PayPal poker site.

Software & Graphics

Betfred poker currently runs on PlayTech software, it is the only one of our featured PayPal poker sites to use this software. I have to say it a pretty pleasing peace of software to use, it is easily installed, is very easy to run and has very clear and precise navigation around the poker lobby. There are some use full lobby stats for you to find the right game, these stats include average pot size, players to flop percentage and hand per hour, you can also see all of your hand history but this is in a saved XML file so is not as readily available as some of our other PayPal poker sites. If you like to multi table the Betfred software will allow you to have 6 tables open at once more than enough for your average player.

Games & Tournaments

Betfred offers probably the smallest selection of games throughout our featured PayPal poker sites, so if you are looking for huge game variety you are best of checking out a site like Party Poker. The games Betfred currently offers its players include Texas Holdem, Omaha, Omaha HI-LO and 7 card stud, all these games come in No-Limit, Pot-Limit and Full Limit variations limits range from $0.01/$0.02 all the way up to $50/$100.

Betfred poker offers a tournament to suit every bankroll tournament run from as little as $1 some of the more notable tournaments include a $200,000 guarantee which has many satellite tournaments allow you to buy in for small amounts there is also a daily $35,000 and a daily $25,000 so if you are a outright tournament players there is still a reasonable selection of games available.

Traffic & Bonus

Betfred poker offers a 100% Deposit bonus on any amount up to $500 this is about the average for our featured PayPal poker sites, the only advantage Betfred has on its competitors is the release of this bonus is a lot easier than some of our other sites, Betfred has respectable traffic figures these figures will never set the poker world alight but they do mean you will normally find a game pretty quick especially if you are looking to play Texas Holdem, Betfred averages 3,000 players during normal playing hours and can get anywhere up to 30,000 during peak periods.

Players

Betfred is one of the world biggest bookmakers and this only helps Betfred poker becoming one of the juiciest poker sites on the internet unlike specialised PayPal poker sites like party poker Betfred player base is mainly from its sport betting so you will find a lot of inexperienced lose poker players, there is a good profit to be made at Betfred but only if you bear in mind bad beat will be more frequent, due to the lose nature of your opponents and watch out for the odd shark who is also looking to cash in on the juicy games.
