Bet At Home Rakeback Deal and Review | iPoker Network

While Bet at Home is mostly famous for their betting services, they are also a good place to play poker, with nice bonuses and promotions, a decent software and weak players. 

They are a part of the iPoker Network and operate under a license issued in Malta and regulated by the MGA (the Malta Gaming Authority). The poker room was added back in 2006 and has seen a good growth since then. Because they are part of a large network, the traffic is always there. 

 

Bet At Home initial bonus is probably the biggest on the market right now. They are offering a huge welcome bonus of 100% of your first deposit, up to 1,500 Euro ($ 1,700). Just like on all the other platforms, the bonus is not released immediately. You must play in order to gradually release it. 

They have various promotions each week, including weekly MTT Missions. Here you have to perform certain assignments in order to win freeroll tickets. In case you play the Twister Sit & Go Tournaments, you will win points that you can then use in the 12,500 Euro Twister Races. The bigger the buy-in, the more points you will make. There are 9 handed and 6 handed tables starting day in and day out.

The more you play, the more Loyalty Points you will win, and for each 125 points you release 5 Euro of the bonus. These points are generated when you are contributing rake to cash games or when paying tournament fees. They also have lots of freerolls with not so many participants. And this is good news since you have bigger chances of winning, without actually contributing anything.

They also have various other daily, weekly and seasonal tournaments, with fees ranging from 1 to 4,000 Euro, so there is always something interesting to take part in. Active players also enter the VIP Club where they have multiple benefits spread over five levels. There are freerolls available for all levels and the higher you climb in the rankings, the bigger the prize pools.

The level of the average poker player got higher over the years, and the competition is really tough right now, especially at higher stakes. This may have removed some fun from the poker experience and also discouraged many recreational players. 

But what keeps many people always coming back to Bet at Home is the soft competition and loose games. This is obvious, because a large part of the players is coming from the world of betting, and they are relying more on luck than on their poker skills. 

Just after winning a good amount of money at betting, some of them are tempted to try their luck at poker too. While some may get lucky and occasionally cash in big time, this doesn’t happen too often, and experienced players can take advantage of those hoping to get lucky. 

The soft games are not just at the low stakes, but you will also find plenty of fish at medium stakes and even at higher ones. The most action can be found at the Texas Hold’em games with blinds ranging from 0.01 / 0.02 Euro to 1 / 2 Euro. 

At the higher stakes most of the traffic can be found at the Holdem games, with not so many players at the others. If you find yourself in the situation of having to wait for your turn at a table, you can quickly play some casino games that are included in the app. This way the time will pass by more quickly and you might also increase your bankroll.  

 

Their betting software was awarded with the Safe and Fair Seal from eCOGRA, and their poker software is reliable as well. While not the most spectacular one, it’s still good enough for most players. It is straight forward and easy to use and has all the needed basic features (decks of 4 colors, customizable avatars and tables, multiple languages and currencies, a history of the hands and a few others). 

However, they do have a wide variety of games to choose from. Besides the common No Limit Holdem and Pot Limit Omaha, you will also find the 7 Card Stud, the 5 Card Draw, the 5 Card Stud and the SOKO. 

While the platform does support multi-tables, it works a bit slower when you open more than four tables at the same time. It does not compare to the software of the leading poker platforms, but it’s not bad either.

Unfortunately, they do not have a mobile app yet, and you can only play through the desktop software. Their betting platform does work on smartphones and tablets, so we are expecting a poker mobile app soon. 

 

While it shares the same player pool with other iPoker skins, players from the following countries are restricted to register and account and play at Bet At Home Poker:

​Afghanistan, Albania, Australia, Belgium, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Greece, Hungary, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Spain, Syria, Turkey and USA

 

Their payment options are safe, secure and reliable. You can choose between debit cards (Visa and MasterCard), Paypal, Skrill, Neteller (and other web wallets) as well as bank transfers. Deposits made with web wallets are instant, while those made through a bank transfer may take up to 3 days.  

In order to withdraw money, you must first verify your account. Then, you must use the same method that you used for the initial deposit. The same options as presented above are available. 

Overall, Bet at Home is a good platform for most players and a great one for recreational players and gamblers. If you are having troubles on competing platforms and barely making any profit, then this website might just be a great choice. They have a decent amount of traffic, plenty of tournaments and promotions and an awesome initial bonus.
