Ladbrokes Casino Review
Although Ladbrokes is very well known in the betting world, most people have never heard of their online casino. They have heard however of their stellar reputation for player security and business integrity. With this in mind, we know that Ladbrokes is the safe bet when it comes to their online casino, but are they the fun one as well? We decided to put this question to the test and see for ourselves if the Ladbrokes' online casino can live up to its betting pool brother. If this all sounds a bit familiar to you it is because this is not Ladbrokes' first venture into the online casino race. Their old site has been online for quite some time, but was completely redone in the early months of 2005. After we took the time to look around we decided that they might want to go back to the drawing board once again. The site just lacked any kind of flair that would make in memorable in this ever growing marketplace. The design lacks character and the new player help section leaves us wanting more. Now we want to point out that the pieces that they have in place aren't bad, they just aren't great either. What they lack in depth they more than make up for in breadth. And when you get a look at the over 160 different games that line their casino floor you will quickly see exactly what we mean. To gain access to all 160 you will have to download their software package, which is a pretty large file. If you are still battling an ancient connection or if you are one of those users that often find yourself sitting behind different computers, then check out the instant play version of the site. You don't get all 160 games, but you do get about 100. Even this so called "Ladbrokes Lite" will still get you more games then you can find at almost any other casino. But, if your system can handle it, then we recommend going with the more deluxe downloading package. The site is powered by the Microgaming software package. This software consistently delivers top quality results every time we come into contact with it. ![]() With the wide variety of instant play games available we thought that for sure the site would be open to Mac users. And this assumption was backed up by Ladbrokes own claims. Unfortunately no matter what combination of operating system and browsers that we tried such was not the case. We hope that this is an error that Ladbrokes is working to fix. It is bad enough that a whole segment of users are blocked from the fun, but it is even worse that Ladbrokes cannot back up their own claims. One section of their casino that Ladbrokes puts their full power behind is their progressive jackpots. This is one very large company, and as such, they have the funds to make these jackpots very tempting indeed! Let's just say that these little beauties are what you would call "life changingly large." In the end Ladbrokes has a lot to offer their players. Just the sheer number of games at their disposal means that you will find more to tempt you through the doors. So if you have the system and you don't mind the design, then give them a try. After all, someone has to win those jackpots, don't they? Casino Games |
