William Hill Poker is one of the more popular poker rooms in Europe, with its soft games and good bonuses. It is one of the few UK rooms also open for US players. They use CryptoLogic platform, with a shared player base. The games are among the very loosest today, so if you are looking for an easy-to-win game this is a good room. The player volume has more than four-doubled during 2004, as they have introduced no-limit and pot-limit games. The software is quite functional, however the graphics are not the nicest. William Hill has a very advantageous monthly bonus scheme in which you get £25 to play 5 hours each month (converted this equals over $40). There is also an open "proposition player" program, where you get paid to play in new and short-handed games. Real money player statistics - December real money players at peak hours,1400-1600 ring game players, 2000-2400 tournament players at peak hours.
William Hill Poker is the newest offering from long-running, well-respected UK/European bookmaker William Hill Casino Group. WHCG is most renowned for its successful brick-and-mortar (land-based) operations, but now provides equally superior service in its vast online network of sports betting, casino, arcade, interactive TV & radio, and poker sites.
In addition to the most common smattering of bonuses and promotions, of which
William Hill Poker has most of the best (royal flush, bad beat, guaranteed prize pools), they also have more than one "Get Paid to Play" programs (among my favorite of online gambling's promotional inventions). No part of the
William Hill Poker enterprise is open to U.S. players (even though U.S. dollars is one of the currencies they recognize). However, William Hill Online Poker does not recognize currency exchange rates.
In other words, the maximum rake is either $3 or 3 pounds sterling, the paid-to-play bonus is either $25 or 25 pounds sterling, so choose wisely which currency to play with. A keen eye on currency exchange rates could be used here to your advantage. [Note: details below are reported in US dollars.]
