Ladbrokes Poker – Old Favorite Offers New Features

As the world’s largest fix-odds betting company, Ladbrokes has established a firm reputation for fairness ever since its inception in 1882. Its leadership in gaming and sports betting carries over to Ladbrokes Poker, where the poker rooms are powered by Microgaming software licensed in Gibraltar. In addition the downloadable Ladbrokes Poker application, the web site offers access in Instant Play mode and in more than 20 different languages. The site also belongs to the Microgaming Italian Poker Network. However, the opening of accounts, processing of bets, and undertaking of financial transactions by residents of Germany or the United States cannot currently be accepted.

Games to Play

Navigation through the Ladbrokes Poker Lobby is facilitated by a “Smarty” bar at the bottom of the page featuring icons that link to all of the key areas of the web site – Promotions, Cashier, Buddies, Help, Poker Shop, and more. Of course, icons for Poker Games and Casino Games are highlighted and easy to find, right above the counter that displayed the progressive Bad Beat bonus for anyone who loses with a great hand (four of a kind, straight flush, etc.).

All available games and tables are listed on the Main Screen. There are seven versions of poker always ready for play. Among these are Texas Hold’em, Omaha, Omaha Hi-Lo, and 5-Card Draw. They also include three popular types of stud poker: 5-card, 7-card, and Razz. Limit, Pot Limit, and No Limit games have blinds that start at just €£0.01/£0.02 and range upward to £10/£20. Under the Beginners listing, Free Play games can be accessed, too.

Special tabs for Sit & Go, Tournaments, and Private Games make from the Cash Games to other tables of the web site easy. The My Lobby tab allows players to customize a list of favorites and store event reminders on a personal calendar.

Among the many tournaments offered at Ladbrokes Poker are single table, multi table, double up, and bounty. The latter two are Sit & Go tournaments with a groundbreaking “10 pays 5” feature in Euros and 50% of the buy-in awarded to whoever knocks a player out, respectively. Another new version is called Survivor, a fixed-duration tournament in which the players with the smallest chip stacks are eliminated at specified intervals.

Bonuses to Claim

Ladbrokes Poker divides its players into four levels. The Poker Player Club offers loyalty bonuses, free rolls, and merchandise in the Poker Shop to those who ascend from Bronze to Silver or Gold status. The Ladbrokes Poker VIP Club then takes those benefits to the next level, providing access to VIP exclusive competitions, promotions, special offers, and invitations to hospitality events throughout the year, from sports contests to poker tour travel packages.

Levels are determined by Poker Player Points earned for all types of play on real money tables, from cash games to Sit n Go’s and multi-table tournaments. Ten points are awarded for every $1 in cash rake generated or spent on tournament fees. Double-points promotions are frequently offered, too.

Other regular promotions at Ladbrokes Poker include a Bad Beat Progressive Jackpot, Poker Point races, and seasonal Poker Cruises. Some £30,000 in prizes is distributed to players every month, too, in the “Splash the Cash” component of Ladbrokes’ ongoing “Top of the Dogs” leader-board promotion.
