Girl Club Poker

Offline Bookies giant goes online! Sounds like a headline that most of the tabloids would have printed, but that wouldn’t have done justice to their move into the online sector. What would read more accurately, is Biggest offline betting company takes all it’s gaming experience and wealth and creates competition in the online world! The advantage of being a very successful business is that you get to throw loads of cash at a new project and make it work instantly, and that is exactly what Ladbrokes have done.

Ladbrokes Poker is a standard Poker site that has all the mod cons of any poker site, but the difference is in what it offers. The site at Ladbrokes Poker is not the prettiest poker site there is, but then again it doesn’t have to be, because the name alone is synonymous with success, which makes you look deeper. Once you do, then the quality of the games and the prizes stand out immediately, and for all the right reasons.

Ladbrokes are trying to create a totally different poker experience that is linked to offline games, and this is a good thing. The Ladbrokes Poker Cruise IV is a perfect example of how you get to combine both worlds, by competing in an event online through tournaments and satellites to reach the final table which is set offline on the worlds most luxurious cruise liner. This is not only a great prize, it’s a perfect combination of virtual and real poker play.

Anonymous Poker
Ladbrokes Poker have created a poker table online that allows you to play as an anonymous player. Basically your alias and avatar is not displayed, and you are given a cover alias. Why? Well anonymous play doesn’t recognise any poker tracking software to your alias, so you get to play your game with total obscurity, making your play unpredictable to tracking and hand recognition software which would allow the user to build a profile of the way that you play. This won’t revolutionise the way in which online poker is played, but it will help the more predictable players stay aloof.

Poker School
The Poker school at Ladbrokes is set up to be a slow and steady process of learning by doing based over 8 weeks. Each week sees new articles, videos and tutorials that is just perfect for the fresh poker wannabe. This is a good way forward for players that really are new to the game, however, it is a very slow process if you are more experienced and want a quick “in” to the game.

Sign-up bonus
Ladbrokes first deposit of £35 minimum is high by most other standards, and the deposit bonus is not an instant match, but is based on how much poker you have played over the first 45 days. In basic terms, you need to play real cash poker games using all of your money for 45 days before a deposit match is credited to your account.

This is how the system works; After you have deposited a minimum of £35, each game of poker that you play for real money earns you points, and the more points you collect, the more percentage you get. After the 45 days, your points are added up and a table ranging from 100% to 1928% is used to determine how much you get.

Summary
Ladbrokes Poker is a good place to play poker, but demand much from their players. The prizes are inspiring and combine online games with offline poker, which is great if you are competent enough to play face to face poker. A good slow paced poker school is very newbie friendly, but the instant push to play real money games before you get your deposit bonus match is more seasoned player focused. If Ladbrokes Poker is your choice, you won’t be disappointed, but you will need to put the time and effort in straight away to reap the rewards which are plentiful. ….Register here!
