Betfair Poker offers many different kinds of games and tournaments to its members. From these games, players can earn large payouts, Betfair Points or fun money. There are many differences between these two types of gaming and they each have their own advantages.

Betfair Fun Money Account

Similar to other online poker rooms, Betfair Poker offers its new and inexperienced members a chance to play for free. With a fun money account, beginners can learn the basics of Texas Hold'em and Omaha High without making bets or losing any money. Betfair Poker offers tutorials regarding the main variations of poker, lessons on hand rankings, whether you should Hold or Fold your cards and Poker Lingo.

After players have spent time improving their poker skills, Betfair Poker offers fun money account holders a chance to easily swap to a real money account. New members who are more experienced poker players can also opt to automatically register for a real money account when they sign up at Betfair Poker.

If you are an experienced poker player who just wants to play for fun with no gambling risks, you can also open a fun money account at Betfair Poker.

Play for Betfair Points

Betfair Points act like a monetary value at many of Betfair Poker's tournaments and games. Every time that you win at a table, you will earn a predetermined amount of Betfair Points along with the particular pot you are playing for. With your Betfair Points you can earn a commission discount at Betfair Sports Exchange - Betfair.com's sports betting site.

Every time that the team you bet on wins through Betfair Sports Exchange, Betfair.com takes a commission on your winnings. The more Betfair Points that you have banked in your account, the greater discount you will receive on the commission, topping off at a 60% discount rate with 150,000 or more Betfair Points.

Another way that you can use your Betfair Points is to accrue enough of them so that you will be able to earn a seat on Betfair Poker's team at the World Series of Poker championship in Las Vegas. Players with 100,000 Betfair Points and up will be eligible for a WSOP prize package.

Unfortunately, if you are not into sports betting or winning a seat at the WSOP championship, there is not much else that you can get with your Betfair Points as of now. This is where real money games become important.

Real Money Games

Betfair's real money games, also known as cash games, are different than tournaments because when a player runs out of chips at a real money game, he can withdraw more funds from his Betfair banking account and return to the table as many times as he wants. In a tournament, when you run out of chips, you must forfeit the game. In real money games, there is never a predetermined end time. Players will continue in the game until they no longer wish to bet their own money.

Blinds at real money games can start as low as 10 cents and can get as high as $2,000. Blinds will not increase during the game.

Each table has a maximum buy-in, so you should choose a table with a larger or smaller buy-in according to how much you are willing to spend.

Winnings at cash games can be much higher than other tournaments. Likewise, losses will be greater at real money games as well.

The following games are real money games at Betfair Poker:

• No Limit Hold'em
• Pot Limit Hold'em
• Fixed Limit Hold'em
• Pot Limit Omaha

To play in real money games at Betfair Poker, you must first register at the site, download the Betfair software and make a deposit into your Betfair banking account. If you are interested in cash games, you should make a substantial deposit into your account because you will necessarily be spending more money at the real money tables.
