Why play Ladbrokespoker.com Multi-Player Poker?
"Great Action" - "Ladbrokes has some of the best games around. There is great multi-way pot action in all forms of poker." - Online Poker Review. LadbrokesPoker has the widest range of staking options and the highest average pot size on the web.
No.1 Community - The LadbrokesPoker room has the strongest sense of community of any Poker site on the web, due to it's European concentration, unique player profiles, player leaderboards and message forum. As a non-networked site - it is independent of other sites. All players are Ladbrokes players.
Brand reliability - Ladbrokes is the world's biggest betting and gaming company. It's size and reputation reassures players that they will be dealt fairly and paid promptly. Ladbrokespoker, unlike other sites, does not employ robot players, shills or house players. One expert has said "When online poker centred on dodgy companies operating out of Costa Rica and Antigua, consumer confidence was low but the game still attracted millions, now that big boys like Ladbrokes have moved in, we're on a whole different level" *.
Liquidity - LadbrokesPoker has more players than any other European Poker room. Poker players want a service with plenty of choice of players to play, different game variations to enjoy and big tournament jackpots to win. Ladbrokespoker.com offers this because of its size. Any other UK gaming operator would struggle to deliver the liquidity to make a Poker site successful.
"No Americans please" - Whilst Americans are great people - they are also the best Poker players. There are thousands of professional players in the US and they make US Poker sites hard places to win money. Ladbrokespoker is popular, paradoxically, because it is the only site in the world that does not take US players. Also important for European poker players are poker tournament start times. At Ladbrokespoker they are convenient for European players, whereas tournaments at predominantly American sites start too late in the evening.
Cost-free, hassle-free banking - Unlike other operators, Ladbrokes offers commission free currency exchange into US Dollars. (All staking takes place in USD). Ladbrokes does not use bid/ offer rates but runs floating mid-point prices for over 15 different currencies. There are no restrictions on taking out your winnings at Ladbrokes. Ladbrokes pay your winnings to your bank account, immediately, upon request.
24 Hour a -day Poker Manager coverage - Ladbrokespoker employs a team of professional poker card room managers who are always online to resolve disputes and provide support and advice for novice players.
