For the cash game players you will find full ring, short handed and heads up tables. Tournament players can play in very good selection of single and multi table tournaments.

Traffic & Player Quality

The Ongame network is a big player in the online poker industry, and the traffic at bwin reflects this. Single table tournaments fill up nice and quickly at most times and many of the multi table tournaments attract big fields and therefore big prizepools! Cash tables are also busy at most of the stakes available during peak hours.

The standard of play at the site varies, as you'd expect from a large network. There are some nice and soft games if you look around, but there are some sharks to be wary of too!

No live chat option from bwin unfortunately, but email and telephone support are available. Queries are usually answered in a reasonable time frame by competent support staff.

Deposits & Withdrawals

A good range of options are available in the cashier. Most customers will be able to use a method that suits them, whether it's a credit/debit card, Neteller or Moneybookers.
