Betfred Upgrades Poker Lobby

A multitude of new features introduced

An announcement arrived this week from the UK bookmaker and online gambling firm Betfred that it has upgraded its poker lobby, which now boasts new look and some new features that include:

- New interface

- New games (including progressive slot jackpots)

- A hands played counter – it serves to show how many lifetime hands a player has played and how many sessions they have played

- VIP club points display - this shows how many award points players have and can convert

- A bonus banner which shows how much bonus a player has and how much they have to play until they receive their next release

In addition, Betfred has introduced a new points accumulation system applicable from March 1, which will be more streamlined and lead to a better understanding of player's benefits and rewards. There’s also a new loyalty plan which will be available from April 1 where players will be credited bonuses as they play and a simpler system will be in place for player's to cash in points for various bonuses and awards.

Finally, there’s a change regarding the rake calculation at the site's cash tables. It will be based on "weighted contribution" as a part of its new and upgraded VIP system, whose implementation began on March 5. It’s also worth noting that players on EUR and GBP tables will receive more points per rake.
