Bristol Poker
Bristol Poker.com is one of the best sources for information on poker in the United Kingdom. The website covers both live games and online poker rooms. They list all the live games being played and those that are scheduled, and there is a comprehensive list of online poker games included. This list includes reviews of the most popular online sites, bonus guides, and bonus poker codes. The site has an area with basic poker rules, strategies for Hold’em, and articles with tips and techniques for both beginners and intermediate players.
Among the reviews of the many online websites, Bristol Poker takes into consideration site traffic, ring games, tournament varieties, bonuses, and the type of security offered on each site. It also includes a comprehensive review of the support each site provides. Currently they have reviews of Titan Poker, Full Tilt Poker, Pacific Poker, VC Poker, Mansion Poker, SkyPoker, and Party Poker.
Bristol Poker not only offers rules for Texas Hold’em, but also for Omaha, Razz, and the different Stud variations. These rules include the basics as well as the order of play for each hand. Within the rules section, the site gives suggestions of the best websites in which to play that type of poker. For example, under the Razz Poker rules, Full Tilt Poker is the recommended room for players to try their luck.
Currently, Mansion Poker is the featured online poker room review. It started a few years ago in the United Kingdom and is becoming very popular across Europe. They are hosted on the same network as Hollywood Poker. Offering new customers a 100% bonus of up to $500, they occasionally reload the bonuses for players. They currently do not have a VIP program. Only ring games and tournaments can be used to reload players’ bonuses and to enter points-only tournaments. This website is not the best site for high rolling players because of this. It is, however, well known for their $100,000, $150,000 and $200,000 tournaments. These tournaments are normally under-populated so players who buy-in to them get a great chance at winning a bigger piece of the pie.
Bristol Poker also includes a link to United Kingdom poker sites online. This link takes you to an online poker portal that also includes reviews of other online websites, strategies, and advice, all of them grouped under the type of game. It is even broken down further under the rules into beginner, intermediate, and advanced categories. The reviews found on this portal include the ten best characteristics on each website and the bonuses on offer. There is also a news archive available for parties interested in keeping up with the most current legislation, live tournament information, and interesting information on other online websites that may affect play.
Both websites are full of resources for the online poker player to help them decide the best place for them to enjoy playing a hand or two of poker. Even the beginner player can learn the basics and start to play poker with confidence.
