Ladbrokes Poker Software Features
Ladbrokes Poker has playable software with clean graphics and no avatars. The lobby is well-planned, it supplies information such as the hands players per hour, the average pot size and the viewed-flop percentage. The lobby also counts the raked hands, which is a useful function when clearing bonuses because the player can keep track of how much they have played. You can sit at different positions at the table. The statistics available during play are integrated to the table and include the win percentage of the players and how often they see the flop. The player notes function of the client allows you to take notes on your opponents but you can also analyze your own play by seeing the folds, calls, checks and re-raises through an interface at the table.
Hand histories are included for analysis as well as a useful graphic replay of hands. Even though the hand histories export well to any computer the hands played in a session are not listed. Multi-table is supported at up to eight tables; full size and mini-view table size options are available and the mini-view feature allows viewing five tables at the same time. The problems with this software are the information dialogs that take up significant space and vision. The table graphics are OK but nothing special, the table felt is green. Even though there are no avatars the graphics are still too cluttered.
