BetFair has recently moved to the Ongame Network giving them the traffic they really needed and a slick software among the best oin the business. There are always action at the tables and a wide variety of games to choose from. you can even create your own table with the number of seats you prefer. Support is probably the only downside of Betfair as they have a tuff time keeping up with all the poker enquiries when their focus is really on their betting exchange. A great $2500 bonus to get you started!
Fish
BetFair has many mediocre players playing too conservatively, some decent players and more and more loose-aggressive players are showing up as well, perfecting the environment for all kinds of players! With a good ability to pick out players suited for your style, youŽll most probably end up as a winner at OnGame. Many huge bookmakers are on the OnGame network, providing a steady flow of fish.
Traffic
Players during peak hours:
Cash-games: up to 5.500
Tournaments: up to 15.000
OnGame Network has all the traffic you will ever need in both cash games and tournaments, but traffic is mainly concentrated around Texas Holdem and Omaha.
Software
OnGame has a very unique look. Everything works smoothly, but a concern might be too many graffical elements making it a bit confusing. It is very customizable though, and you can remove the characters if you please. The software is Macintosh friendly, and if you play away from home, you can take advantage of their no-download Java version which is almost as nice as the download version!There are tons of features like a superb notes-functions, superb statistics, lobby-chat etc. You can create you own tournament or cash-game table, and even play on your mobile! The network is constantly evolving to make sure that you have every reason to love it! Cashier, promotions, support and possibility to search for players are all located on the homepage of the poker rooms. In general, the OnGame software is very nice, and way above average!
Tournaments
Many tournaments to choose from around the clock. Both sit & go\'s and multi-table tournaments including qualifiers to all the major live events such as the WSOP and EPT. Furthermore Betfair very often offers some exceptional events with more exciting aspects than regular tournaments. Definately a fun place for poker tournaments.
Support
As the worlds leading sports exchange, support is handled very proffesionally through 24/7 telephone and email support. Because of the many customer enquiries emails support is not the fastest around but their website promise replies within 24 hours.
