Poker is a highly entertaining game that was initially invented in the 18th century, was a staple at land-based casinos, and is now a common occurrence at online casinos like Unibet. One of the reasons for its popularity is the balance between chance and skill involved in the gameplay, along with all the available betting opportunities and game versions.

At Unibet, you can play a variety of poker video tables and live dealer tables and enjoy some tournaments. If you want to get started, all you need to do is this:

1. Create a new Unibet account or log in to your existing one.
2. Download the Unibet poker app or access the tables and tournaments from your preferred browser.
3. Review the available bonus offers and claim any welcome bonuses that will help you get started with gambling on poker.
4. Choose the poker format you want to explore and start making your wagers!

At Unibet, we’ve got over 11 million satisfied customers, and we would love to have you on board as well. If you’re interested in poker alone, we can offer you a variety of betting options and the chance to play with a custom poker identity. Here’s what you can expect to find as part of our poker offerings:

Cash Games

If you open our poker lobby, one of the first things you’ll notice is the option to play cash games. This means that we offer many tables where you can play with chips that have actual monetary value. When using this option, you can also expect to win real money if you form a winning hand.

Some of the games that are available for real money play are No Limit Texas Hold ’em, Pot Limit Omaha, and Banzai Texas Hold ’em. The Banzai version is only available for No Limit Texas Hold ’em. The buy-in varies for each type of game, but you can usually bet between £0.02 and £400.

These games are best for players who want to freely control how long they spend playing. You have the option to leave the table at any time by simply cashing out. You can also join a table whenever you want, as long as there is no ongoing round.

Tournaments

Tournaments are one of our fortes at Unibet, as we offer a variety of single-table and multi-table tournaments. If we were to focus on the latter category, you can find tournaments available at all times, all with varying prize pools that depend on the current stakes on the table.

Some multi-table tournaments you can explore in our online casino lobby include No Limit Texas Hold ’em and Pot Limit Omaha, where you can play against 5 or 8 other players. However, you have to keep in mind the betting rules, as we have tables that feature freezeout, re-entry, and re-buy or add-on.

• Freezeout: This feature prevents players from re-entering tournaments after losing their chips. So, you should manage your bankroll wisely and play with smaller bets if you want to stay in the game longer.
• Re-entry: If your tournament has the re-entry feature, this means that even after you lose all your chips, you can invest more money, get more chips, and continue playing at the table. However, the number of re-entries is often limited and stated in the tournament details.
• Re-buy/Add-on: Similar to the feature mentioned above, you can purchase additional chips in re-buy tournaments if you see that your stack is getting low or you lose all the chips you entered the tournament with. The add-on, on the other hand, is given towards the end of the registration period, allowing you to decide whether you need more chips before the cashier closes.

Sit and Go

As opposed to the multi-table tournaments we discussed above, Unibet offers single-table tournaments under the title SNG or Sit’n’Go. When playing at these tables, you can play against one or several other players, as most tables are 2-seats or 5-seats. The buy-ins also vary depending on the table of your choosing, so expect to bet between £1 and £200 for a 2-seat or £1 to £25 for a 5-seat.

If you choose to play on a 2-seat, getting a winning hand over the other player means that you earn the entire prize pool. However, in a 5-seat game, the prize pool is divided among the top two players, so you can expect to receive 66.7% as the winner and 33.3% of the prize pool as the runner-up.

HexaPro

In our exclusive HexaPro category, you can find single-table tournaments that we pair with large jackpots to increase the excitement of playing poker at Unibet. There are different buy-ins that you can explore, and, depending on your budget, you can decide whether you want to start with the lower buy-ins like £1 or £2 or up to £100 to get into the tournament.

What makes it even more exciting to join these tournaments is that you can expect to trigger random multipliers that can significantly increase your winnings. The possible multipliers vary between 1.5x and 1,000x your bet, with the highest multipliers dropping once every 4 minutes.

Live Games

We offer two types of live games at Unibet: live dealer games and live tournaments.

To explore the first category, you can visit our live casino lobby and check the Live Poker category. While the selection of tables is not that enormous, we still offer high-stakes betting on tables that are streamed in real-time. Some options you can look into include Three Card Poker, Caribbean Stud Poker, and Texas Hold ’em Bonus Poker.

As for the live tournaments, we have options for you to join at any time of the day. For example, we were a part of the Dublin Poker Festival and British Poker Series, allowing players to join and compete using our platform. Some of the tournaments you can join right now include the Daily Poker XP Races and the 7 Days of Poker tournament.
