Unibet Poker has always been an online poker site that thinks outside the box when it comes to its poker offering. The recreational player friendly site continues to innovate with the launch of what it bills as Daily Specials.
The Daily Specials, as the name alludes to, take place each day of the week, with each day featuring a different theme and promotion for players to get their teeth into. Not only does this add plenty of value for Unibet Poker players, but is great for the site because it introduces its customers to games and formats they may not usually consider playing.
