Betfair Exchange Games Combine Betting With Poker and Casino Games
Betfair Exchange Games could be just what you need if you fancy a change from grinding online poker. These games combined Betfair’s revolutionary betting exchange, poker, and casino games to create an exciting new format.
The poker players among you will probably be most interested in the Texas Hold’em game.
This game starts with the Betfair Exchange Games software dealing 13 cards face down, the five community cards and fou sets of hole cards. You can place a bet before seeing any of the cards if you wish.
Betfair turns over the hole cards and assigns odds to each of them, displayed as decimal odds. You can place a bet here on any of the holdings. The flop is then dealt and the odds of each starting hand changed to reflect their chances of winning. The turn is dealt and another round of betting takes place before the river is revealed.
You don’t have to place a bet because you can lay a bet too. Laying a bet is betting that something will not happen. If you think the pocket kings aren't going to hold up, then lay them!
It’s very much like a typical game of Texas Hold’em except you bet against the house instead of playing against opponents.
