WILLIAM HILL POKER REVIEW
Founded in 1934, William Hill is one of the best-known names in the gambling industry, providing gaming and betting services across three channels: online, on the high street and on the phone. They have been listed on the London Stock Exchange since 2002 and employ over 15,000 people in the UK, Ireland, Israel and Bulgaria. By joining the iPoker network, the world’s largest Poker room, their players will now be able to find the game they want, when they want it. Better liquidity also means bigger prizepools and more chances to win and with cash games from $0.01/$0.02 and a wealth of multi table tournaments, you don’t need a bankroll the size of Barbados to get started.
William Hill Poker uses Playtechs world class gaming platform and are part of the iPoker network. Playtech are the world’s largest publicly traded online gaming software supplier and iPoker are the world's largest online poker network, so it should come as no surprise to learn that we found the software very user friendly, easy to navigate, secure and robust. There are plenty of tools to make playing at William Hill Poker viable, you can write as many notes on each opponent as you like because the player note taking facility gives you unlimited space, serious multitablers will be glad to hear you can now play 16 tables simulataneously and the hand history allows you to review every single hand you've ever played, no matter how far back that may be.
We found the traffic to be excellent in most areas of the site, at the time of writing there were over 25,000 players connected to the iPoker network, all of which you can play through William Hill Poker, so finding the game that's right for you is a doddle. All the Texas Hold'em tables are well stocked with beatable players, on the cash tables, we found Pot Limit Omaha and 7 Card Stud had action up to the $3/6 level, the 5 Card Stud section did'nt have many players the few times we checked, Texas Hold'em was teeming with fish and had action up to the $100/200 tables.
The £400 new player bonus is a great way to get your new William Hill Poker bankroll off to a flying start. Once you have opened a William Hill Poker account via a link on TakesAllSports and made your first deposit, they will match it like for like with bonus dollars, up to an amazing £400! Your first transfer or deposit into Poker also gives you automatic entry to their weekly $1,000 New Depositors Freeroll, so there's never been a better time to sign up to William Hill Poker.
Invite a friend to join you at William Hill Poker via a link on TakesAllSports and they will give YOU a fantastic bonus dollars payment of $50 for each friend going on to open an account and deposit at least $50. Not only that, your friend won’t be left with an empty wallet, they also give them an extra $50 in bonus dollars on top of the New Player Bonus of up to £400.
William Hill have a large number of ways to deposit and withdraw, which include Maestro, Solo, Laser, Delta and Visa Electron debit cards, Mastercard and Visa credit cards, Click&Buy, PayPal, Neteller, Click2Pay and Moneybookers.
There are more ways to contact William Hill customer services than most people realise, hidden away on their website is a freephone number for customers within the UK, we got straight through and they only needed to keep us on hold for a minute or two before they came back equipped with answers to all our questions. We recieved a reply from their email service the same day we sent it, which was pretty good going seeing as it was a major sporting weekend and they were likely to be busy. Before using either of these methods, we recommend trying their excellent FAQ section which contains nearly a hundred tutorials on the most frequently asked about issues.
We feel the lower stakes action is worth checking out on both the cash table and multi table tournament sections, there are enough poor players to make turning a profit a realistic proposition for most people. William Hill Poker don't accept US players, so it's mostly European competition with a significant amount of players from the UK and France. It's a friendly, chatty site and we reckon a lot of the William Hill sportsbook members also play on their poker site too, such is the low general standard.
