Betfair is one of the leading sites for online gaming from sports, to poker, to blackjack. If you can bet on it, you can count on Betfair providing it. Created in 1999 by Andrew Black and Edward Wray, Betfair has become a household name right across Europe. They have won the Queen’s Award for Enterprise twice and is licensed in the UK, Australia, Malta, Italy, Austria and Germany. The poker room is the official sponsor of the WSOPE not to mention sponsoring names like Annette Obrestad and Sorel “Imper1um" Mizzi. As a new player you will automatically qualify for a unique signup bonus giving you the opportunity to earn as much as $150 on top of your Betfair rakeback.  

Betfair is one of the few European sites offering high stakes (played in Texas Holdem, Omaha, and Omaha Hi Lo) and has a high volume of players to support these games. Players can choose between the standard full ring, shorthanded and heads up tables. Tournaments at Betfair are rated as one of the best and with the newly released $20,000 New Breed Challenge, Betfair players will be lining up to play against Imper1um, Obrestad, and Jepson in the $20K GP event. Satellites and guarantees are a regular part of the Betfair tournament line-up as are leaderboard challenge and freerolls.

The Betfair software supports a no download client which is great for Mac players in addition to offering 20 languages and accepting bets in Euros, Pounds and Dollars. Although the software is quite basic compared to some of the other networks, the performance is top notch. Speed is a priority as is stability and reliability. Players will have access to multi-tabling, resizable tables, hand statistics in the lobby as well as seated at the tables.

Whatever the problem may be you will have absolutely no issues receiving a timely and prompt reply from the Betfair support team. Available 24/7 through email, live chat and phone services, Betfair is committed to offering a dedicated support service.

Unlike other sites, Betfair is one of the few remaining poker rooms which accept payments via PayPal. For non PayPal users, the poker room provides a number of payment processors for you to use. Current methods include; Visa, MasterCard, Maestro, Visa Electron, Solo, Switch, Delta, Laser, Bank Wire, Check, Neteller and Paypal.
