Unibet Poker

Unibet has offered poker games since 2004 and is a member of Microgaming’s network. Just like its Swedish competitor, Expekt, Unibet was a company that put it all into betting from the beginning. In recent years, however, it has chosen to follow the poker trend and make inroads into that area. Unibet is a popular poker room that has grown significantly since it joined Microgaming’s network, in 2006. The move has resulted in, among other advantages, higher player traffic and more tournaments for its players to choose from. 

For those who like tournament games, Unibet offers various tournaments and freerolls with guaranteed prize pots. The software is simple and user-friendly, and as a player you are able to play several tables at the same time. Beginners, and those who just want to play for fun, can even play with pretend money. In addition, it also has a very usable poker school where you can pick up playing tips and advice. You can customise the lobby’s and tables’ appearance before getting going with your games. Unibet has a lot of beginners, perhaps because many of the company’s loyal betting customers are making their way to its poker section. Unibet also sponsors several qualifying tournaments and satellite games to the big live events for its more practiced players. In addition, it also often provides the chance to win fine prizes in the form of trips or gadgets, in addition to money.
