poker.ladbrokes.com review

As a welcome bonus to new players at www.poker.ladbrokes.com, a 100% cash match bonus is on offer, available up to the value of $500. Another good point about Ladbrokes is that a new player can be assured of finding a table at any time of the day or night due to the good flow of player traffic through the site.

Recently, Ladbrokes have also offered a 3D poker playing experience which is much more interactive and enjoyable for the players. Help and Support onsite is also second to none, and transactions are handled with the utmost care and professionalism. The games on offer here are pretty standard, with Omaha, Seven Card Stud, and Holdem.

The whole layout of the site itself, is I feel, well done. The lobby is easy enough to find your way around, there are detailed help sections for getting started on the site, and I am pleased to see the company working hard at making exciting improvements to their site. Jackpot Sit n Go’s are available at Ladbrokes, along with Bad Beat jackpots and numerous other bonuses too.

Furthermore, there are large guaranteed tournaments, and satellites to major tournaments the world over, so there is plenty for the average player to enjoy here.

Personally I have always said that the whole online industry has to embrace 3D avatars which move and talk, even if it is in fairly simplistic ways, as it adds much more to the playing experience. I am very pleased to see Ladbrokes looking to move in this direction, and feel they are doing a great job of creating a top quality poker room.

Doylespoker.com Review

Doylespoker Room has recently introduced a few new tournaments and ideas to further boost it’s popularity, and these tournaments look very interesting indeed.

One of these is a $250,000 gauranteed tournament which takes place every Saturday, and is one of the largest gaurantee tournaments around. The refer a friend system at www.doylespoker.com Room is also a fairly good one, with yourself as the referring player receiving 25% of their first deposit once certain criteria have been met.

This does mean that some players who play smaller stakes won’t get much, but if you like to play on the middle to larger blinds tables, you can earn a rather healthy bonus in this way. Satellites are also running at Doyles Room to win you a seat in a $175,000 gauranteed re buy tournament running every Sunday. The site offers a 110% first time deposit bonus too, but this is subject to earning enough experience points to trigger the payment. Bounty tournaments are also in operation here with cash paid out to players who can knock out one of Doylesrooms team of experienced pros.

The table, avatar set up, and graphics at Doylesroom are looking good these days too, and the site is currently accepting custom from U.S players.

The lobby at doylespoker.com Room is also fairly user friendly, and there are a good variety of different games on offer for players to enjoy.

Help and Support are also of a good enough standard, and player trafic is looking up too. Overall, I never used to be overly keen on this site myself, but I like the way things are shaping up now at Doyles Room, and the poker room is certainly beginning to grow on me.
