Big Bet Poker Review

Big Bet Poker is one of the newest additions to the growing Merge poker network. This online poker room allows US poker players and carries all the features that you will find on other Merge sites. The software downloads quickly and updates regularly. The network continues to add features and is becoming a strong force in online poker. Please note the no deposit bankroll builder offer has ended effective 31 October 2009.

The software features a very clean and readable table and offers many options. The tables are absent of large avatars so that you can focus more on your game. You will find rabbit hunt to see how a hand would have played out, instant hand history, player notes and tags to remind you of opponents traits, hand replay, and many other features to help you improve your game.

There is plenty of tournament action at all levels of buy ins from freerolls every two hours to large guaranteed tournaments in a wide variety of poker variants. This is one of the few sites that hold Badugi tournaments.
