BetOnline.com Software/Interface Usability
BetOnline's software is pretty standard for online poker sites. When you open the lobby you have the option of choosing the Hold'Em, Omaha or Tournaments tab. Within each tab you then have the option of filtering further. For example in the Hold'Em tab you can choose all stakes or filter it down to micro/low stakes or medium/high stakes. Likewise, on the bottom of the lobby you can filter what type of game you want to play (No limit, Pot limit, or Fixed Limit) as well as filtering for Head's Up tables or filtering the empty tables from the lobby.
Once you have chosen your table and sat down at an empty seat the table layout is very basic but very functional as well. There are no avatars to choose but the software does provide the standard auto muck, sit out next hand, and auto post blind functions. In terms of betting, there is a standard bet slider as well as 1/4 pot, 1/2 pot, 3/4 pot, min raise, pot raise and all-in buttons. You also have the option to tile your tables or to minimize them. And of course you can access the cashier and live help at any time.
Overall the software is efficient, self-explanatory, and easy to use. With their live help button you also can request assistance if you ever do need it.
Bet Online Poker Room Action
The action at BetOnline at this time appears to be geared towards low to medium stakes cash games and for freeroll tourney players. If you are looking for a NL game with stakes between .01/.02 to $.50/$1 then you should have ample opportunity to find a good game. It looks like some $1/2 6 max games as well as the occasional full ring $1/2 or $2/4 game might run sometimes as well. For Omaha the action appears to be a couple of tables running with stakes from .05/.10 up to .25/.50.
The real action at BetOnline pokerwise is in their freerolls. On a Sunday afternoon, their freerolls have at least 1000 entries and offer anywhere from $10 to $100 in prize money. So if you are looking for a site where you can start earning a poker bankroll without having to risk any money, then BetOnline looks like a good place to visit.
BetOnline.com Ease of Game, Ease of Making Money, Fish Rating
Poker has become a tougher game to consistently beat over the last ten years, but with the majority of the players coming to BetOnline to use their Sportsbook and playing mostly lower stakes poker, the fish factor is still pretty high. Assuming you play quality ABC poker, you should be a consistent winner on this site.
Bet Online Poker Bonus Codes and Promotions
At this time, Bet Online does not offer a deposit bonus for poker players. This is pretty rare in the industry today, so if you're looking for a good bonus to clear, look elsewhere.
