Ladbrokes online Poker Room - Poker Games

At our last review of this online poker room (26th January 2009 17.00 GMT) there were 3,644 players logged in.

There is an instant play option so you don't have to download and use up more of your ever diminishing memory.

It is in the exact format to that of 32 Red Poker, but the colours are different.

You can play Holdem Poker (fixed, pot and no limit), Omaha Poker (hi and hi/lo), Seven Card Stud Poker (hi and hi/lo) at Ladbrokes Poker.

Tournaments have buy-in's ranging from freerolls ( free poker ) to $300. In fact there is a $1,000 freeroll each day. "Sit and go's" cost from $2 to $150. Cash online poker games start at 5/10c and go up to $200/$400.

There are no American Players at Ladbrokes online Poker (that's what they say). There are thousands of professional players in the US and they make US online Poker rooms hard places to win money.

Ladbrokes online poker  is popular, because it is the only online poker room in the world that does not take US players for legal reasons. Ladbrokes Poker is commonly regarded as the best place to play online Poker as a novice player.

Ladbrokes Poker is officially Europe's busiest online Poker room with poker player numbers regularly exceeding 10,000 at peak times - spread across as many as 2,000 online poker tables.

Over 10 million hands are dealt at Ladbrokes online poker every month.

Jesse May "The Voice of Poker" and Sky Sports Poker Commentator , says "When the Ladbrokes online poker room first opened, I briefly checked it out and was duly impressed without actually playing.

In the last month, however, I've taken the opportunity to play extensively at Ladbrokes poker  (not under my own name!) and would say unequivocally that it's the best poker software on the Internet.

I think their policies on all-in protection, table hopping, security, anything that is of concern for a high stakes player is unmatched anywhere."

"The best high stakes action on the Internet.", said Alias Wassberg (a.k.a. Christer Johansson from Sweden who won the EFOP in Paris this year and a €500,000 1st prize).

"I've tried many sites before finding Ladbrokes online poker. My experiences with the Ladbrokes online poker room are that, unlike many other online poker rooms, there don't appear to be any rigged deals, no 'cashout curses' (losing immediately after you partially cashout), no robots playing, no delayed payouts, nor indeed any other funny business."

" I'm at Ladbrokes Poker to stay!" - Phil Rouse (alias Xanthe) from Coventry, England, Winner of 2003 European online Poker Grand Prix.

Ladbrokes online poker room - Layout

The Main Lobby runs on a "windows file" type system, click on the folder and it's contents pop down, and you drill down to the level that you want.

You can filter out full or empty online poker tables , which does help a little. There are no avatars (thank goodness some of you may say), just your nickname and chip balance.

However, if you right click on your opponent, it does show where they are from (if they have supplied this detail).

The standard format is a 10 player poker table, but in multi table sit and go's they use a 6 player format, so a 3 table sit and go only need 18 players to register.

The Random Number Generator (RNG) is the lifeblood of Ladbrokes online Poker, it is a carefully tested part of the poker application, which is relied upon to ensure that 52 card values are generated and used in a random way to facilitate a fair game of online poker among players.

This process is checked regularly to ensure that each card in the standard deck of 52 cards has an equal chance of appearing and that there are no modifications to this process that could create predictable results.

Cards are randomly drawn from the deck as required, using a stream cipher which is periodically reseeded with a digest of real world information, this is known as an entropy pool and serves two purposes.

Firstly to increase the randomness of the RNG and secondly to make it impossible for any third party to guess, predict or calculate the RNG sequence.

Random number generation is isolated from any game logic or player information recorded on their systems.

This is how the current RNG works with their poker product: 52 cards are thoroughly shuffled at the beginning of each hand. Hole cards are then dealt to each player.

The flop, turn and river cards (or further streets in Stud Poker games) are now predetermined, so there is no further shuffling of the deck until the hand is completed... just like a real life poker game.

There are no burn cards required and any folded cards are not returned to the deck until the shuffle process begins again.
