Littlewoods Poker

Some reputable online gaming industries have very deep roots. Littlewoods Poker, one of net’s more popular virtual poker rooms, is owned by the Littlewoods Gaming Corp, which has been around since 1923 - long before the Internet was ever dreamed up. A long history like that means that the name is solid; if it wasn’t, the company would have dissolved long ago.

Littlewoods Poker is powered by Cassava Enterprises in Gibraltar and fully licensed and regulated by their government. The site’s completely secure and the software runs great. Emphasis is placed on fun and fair gaming, and their promise is to always take measures to improve both.

Littlewoods Poker is one of the smaller gaming venues on the same network, but they do have a simplistic sense of style that keeps players satisfied. The site is very easy to navigate, and their homepage features a live statistic counter that always lets you know exactly how many people are playing poker.

It’s rarely ever packed, but that can work out if you’re a ring or sit-n-go player. Although they’re able to tough a rather large base, the only language you’ll find with Littlewoods is English.

The support is great for a smaller poker room. There’s nothing unique about the way they’re set up, per se, but not many places online have a thriving community within the lobby that includes live chat support agents. If you need to ask a question, you can find support floating around. Or you can choose to click the live chat support link and be immediately connected with an agent. You can also choose to use the site’s email addresses and toll-free numbers.

Littlewoods Poker offers over $4-million in guaranteed tournaments every month, ranging from freerolls to satellites/qualifiers. There are tons of multi-player tournaments taking place with huge pots; and if you’re a regular player, you’ll find that the thinner fields on this smaller site are actually to your advantage. You’ll find the regular types of poker here: Texas Hold’em, Omaha (and hi/lo), 5 and 7-Card Stud. You won’t find many more games, but there are still plenty of limit and tournament options with these.

There are plenty of promotions happening at Littlewoods. For starters, the newbie signup bonus is one of the easiest to clear around. You can receive a 100% deposit bonus of up to $200. There are also regular qualifiers for the GUKPT tournament (limited time), special freerolls held for strictly depositors, weekend bonuses, a WSOP package, Aussie Millions, Asian PT, and Irish Open qualifiers, and other ongoing promotions like double or nothing tournaments and frequent player points (FPP) to take advantage of.

You can deposit your money by using MasterCard/Visa, PayPoint, Moneybookers, Instadebit, UKash, ClickandBuy, Neteller, and e-check. Be sure to check with both Littlewoods and your preferred method’s site to make sure you’re eligible to use the deposit method.

Pros: Tons of promotions, good support, soft competition, and a lot of qualifiers to take advantage of.

Cons: No US players allowed; and the game selection - in terms of variety - is rather weak.
