Brits are Crazy About Casino Poker

Author: Redloungecasino Author Ranking Blue | Posted: 03-12-2007 | Comments: 0 | Views: 5 | Rating:  (50) Article Popularity - Green (?) Got a Question? Ask.

A recent survey by Mintel Market Research shows that the British are great fans of poker, both online and land-based. According to the survey, one in four British adults (or about 7 million) has played poker in the last year. The participants in the survey point out various reasons for this new hobby, ranging from fun and entertainment to choosing poker as a source for additional income.

Since September 1, UK pubs have been permitted to host poker games, providing individual stakes are not bigger than £5, and total stakes amount to no more than £100 a day. For the real fans of poker, however, online casinos are still a preferred venue, since they do not have similar restrictions on bets and, unlike pubs, offer customer services more comparable to land-based casinos. Moreover, online casinos are able to offer a wide range of poker games – a feature widely favoured by modern gamblers.

One casino that has done much to cater to this rising interest in online poker is Red Lounge Casino (redloungecasino.com), which is powered by Cantor Gaming. Red Lounge has lately enjoyed the status of one being of the most popular online casinos in the UK, partly because of the variety and quality of its online poker offerings. The poker games available at Red Lounge range from the familiar varieties to the more exotic, such as Pai Gow Poker, Caribbean Poker, and Let Them Ride Poker.

Pai Gow Poker is a casino poker variation which combines classic American poker with an ancient Chinese domino game. The result is an intriguing new game with fascinating strategy and some of the best odds available anywhere – the commission when player is “banker” is only 5%.

Caribbean Poker is a popular variation on poker that offers exciting, fast-paced play and high payouts. And Red Lounge Casino offers some of the best odds on Caribbean Poker available at any online casino, paying 250 to 1 on Royal Flush. Red Lounge Caribbean Poker also features the possibility for the dealer to expose their cards if the player surrenders, which eliminates the wondering about whether surrendering was the right option. There is also an added feature of a £1 side bet on the Progressive Jackpot.

Let Them Ride Poker is a online casino poker game which features simple yet compelling gameplay with massive payouts: up to £50,000 per hand.

Apart from its wide range of customer-tailored game varieties, Red Lounge Casino pays special attention to customer care in response to online gamblers’ growing awareness of customer service and their demand for new features. The casino has a highly efficient London-based customer service team which provides prompt responses to client enquiries by live chat, phone, or e-mail. It also offers many promotions, targeted at the specific needs of different groups of customers. The newest of these is the 15% daily rebate promotion, which provides players with the opportunity to receive a proportion of the amounts they have lost as often as 30 times during the month of November.

As these examples illustrate, casino poker fans in the UK are very well served by online casino poker games, many of which offer features and payouts that live venues cannot match.
