A really top room on offer and we highly recommend you give it a go.

Bet365 Poker Player Traffic
By switching over to the iPoker network, bet365 have increased their player base substantially. Around peak times there are around 8,000 real money players at the cash tables and around 30,000 on the tournament tables.
Most players at this site can be found at the micro limit Sit & Go tables and Ring Game tables, especially Hold'em. However you can always find a game available to all but the highest limits.
The standard of play is pretty very poor at the lower stakes, be it tournaments or cash games. In general the players have extreme difficulty playing post-flop poker and there are plenty of calling stations and fish. The poor play displayed is probably due to the cross sell in customers from bet365's successful sportsbook and casino product. This means good news for us poker players.
Bet365 Poker Quality of Players
Normal cash games can be fairly loose, but the tournaments are cut-throat for the most part. There are a lot of talented people playing on Bet365 Poker, and the site is an excellent training ground if you are trying to improve your poker playing skills.
Bet365 Poker Tournament Info
Tournaments can get really big at Bet365. There are Sit n Go tournaments and Multi-Table Tournaments available. Tournaments may normally attract over 5,000 players. The site offers Turbo Tournaments where blind levels are going up quickly, plenty of freerolls, freezeout tournaments with no re-buys or add-ons, and many tournaments with guaranteed prize pools.
Bet365 Poker Software
Bet365 Poker software is shared amongst the other Prima Poker network rooms. It is pretty quick although sometimes refresh is not as quick as it could be. This is more an issue in tournaments where the updates occur every 30 seconds or so. In addition there are sometimes issues where the tournament lobby has no information and you need to logout and back in to get it working. Having tested this throughout June and July is seems to have been corrected so fingers crossed all is now well.
On the plus side, it is stable and works well by and large. The software supports a good amount of features and statistical information. Find hands played per hour, average pot, view flop percentages and number of people seated. There is also a find a friend function available, which will show you all tables that your friends are playing. The only recommendation we could make here is that it would be useful to hyperlink the results so that you don’t have to manually go and find the table. They also have on site live customer support, a note taking function and you can play up to 4 tables simultaneously. Playing multiple tables you can also resize your table image so that they all fit in the same screen.
