POKER GAME PLAY AT BETSSON
Betsson offers great poker action and a safe & user-friendly betting & gaming environment. Site languages: English, German, Czech, Danish, Finnish, Icelandic, Norwegian, Polish, Swedish & Turkish - with payment & support services well established to cater for this global mix.
Both modes of Betsson poker, the Ongame Poker Network Software and the Entraction Poker Network Software give good stable poker action (as stable as your Internet connection). The 'Instant Play' versions are easy (play in your browser) & the 'Download' Poker Software versions are quick to download & run. Betsson Poker is Mac, Linux & PC friendly.
The table graphics grow on you - but the USD and the Euro tables differ in styling - but in both the poker action is easy, with clear chips, calls & chat features. We prefer the original Ongame styling, with seated people and a more classy lobby, but both versions play well.
PLAY POKER CASH GAMES, TOURNAMENTS, FREEROLLS
Betsson Poker in either USD or Euro forms offers you the most popular games like Texas Hold'em, Omaha & 7 Card Stud. Join cash games, play for fun (free), buy in to one of the many daily, weekly & monthly tournament opportunities (buy-ins generally range from $0.10 to $50. $20, $30, $100 and $250) or even run your own private games. Beginner & VIP Freerolls too. Betsson's membership to both poker networks means you can play one or other or both poker networks giving you access to the best in industry-leading tournament prize pools.
POKER RAKE, SECURITY, AUDIT AT BETSSON
Betsson Poker applies a standard rake policy in line with most UK & European online poker rooms at around 5% (max rake per pot is $3 - no flop no drop). Site security includes 128-bit encryption. Info on Privacy Policy is on site and both Betsson poker networks have been independently tested and certified for randomness and security. Anti collusion measures are in place to protect you.
PAYING IN AND CASHING OUT POKER WINNINGS AT BETSSON
Deposit with: Solo & Switch debit cards, Visa, Eurocard & Mastercard credit cards, Moneybookers, NETeller, Click2Pay, Entropay, iDeal, UKash, Wirecard & Bank Wires. Like many online bookies you can't withdraw back to a credit card due primarily to restrictions imposed by the banking industry. The Betsson site is a Verisign secured safe betting site.
FISH FACTOR - POKER COMPETITION
Player skills at Betsson Poker (either poker network) in general are very variable. There tends to be stronger, more challenging players at the higher stake tables, but there are plenty of fish just starting out too - so enjoy taking some of their money! Use the 'Find Player' feature to locate specific players online & the table at which they are seated. 37,000+ at peak. Both networks are fairly busy round the clock, and popular with players.
CUSTOMER SERVICE AT BETSSON POKER
Betsson Poker operates a 7X24 'helpdesk' service. Live chat is best, only a UK-based telephone number is provided with most support is performed via e-mail (which is fairly common for most online poker rooms). You can complete a 'contact me' form & they'll call or e-mail you. Responses are very quick & friendly. The FAQ set online is also quite useful.
GETTING STARTED AT BETSSON POKER
To get started at Betsson Poker you need to decide whether you want to play in USD or Euros & select the Betsson Poker version you want. Register (even if you just want to play free tables or in Freerolls). Then either download your choice of free poker software or click 'INSTANT PLAY' & sign-in. The poker lobby lists the games you can join or read the tournament schedule for the next events & any freerolls you can enter. All the rules are available online

WHAT WE LIKE ABOUT BETSSON POKER
1. The Ongame Network ensures there is always plenty of poker action available 24X7 - and
there's a range fo skill levels including fish!
2. Our own private tournaments. (You can set up a tournament and send invitations to other
players choosing your own game type/limit/stakes/number of seats. Very cool).
3. If you want to play 'play money' tables at Betsson you can top up your Poker Play Money
balance twice a day (ie back to a $1000 balance)
4. Good online Blackjack is also available as a side game to poker
WHAT WE DO NOT LIKE ABOUT BETSSON POKER
1. You have to open & deposit funds into a Betsson (Sports) account & then transfer it to Poker
as a second step. A little messy but not so hard.
2. The Betsson web site, while newly enhanced, is still not that easy to navigate around in to
find information (eg specific detail on bonus offer playthrough requirements)
