Software
Ladbrokes' software is simple, clean, and easy to use. This is mainly in part due to the large amount of white space for easier reading and the non-business of the software. It isn’t cluttered like most other poker software.
There are many variations of the software you can download including instant play, classic, and 3D. This can only enhance a player’s gaming experience.
Games are sorted in tabs and filters are available including stakes, average pot, players, etc. which is pretty consistent across all poker software.
Audio is decent as you will hear chips being slung across the table. That is pretty much it though and you won’t hear from the dealer.
Standard across all online poker sites, Ladbrokes Poker includes a chat window where you may chat with other players as well as view in-game actions. The chat is attached on the right side and runs the whole length of the window. Chat is highly encouraged.
While you can multi-table at Ladbrokes, you can’t resize tables. This is a huge problem, as tables are already big as it is!
Hand histories are stored on the software itself and on your local hard drive.

Game Selection
The games offered at Ladbrokes Poker are Texas Hold′em, Omaha, Omaha Hi-Lo, Seven-Card Stud, Five-Card Stud and Five-Card Draw.

Competition
Expect to find soft competition at Ladbrokes, whether in cash or tournament games. Of course, competition is difficult at slightly higher levels, but that can be said at all poker rooms.
Players tend to lean more towards having a good time and chatting it up in the chat box which correlates to the soft competition. Of course, there’s nothing wrong with that, as players want to have an enjoyable experience!

Traffic
Traffic is either hit or miss at Ladbrokes. Weekends are the best times to play with sub par traffic. There are some periods, especially in the evenings when traffic is bone dry.

Support
Ladbrokes Poker offers lightning fast support either through email or phone.

Bonus/Rakeback
Ladbrokes offers one of the highest bonuses at 100% for a maximum of $500. To receive your full Welcome Bonus, you will need to accumulate 30 times the number of Player Points in relation to you initial chip purchase, minimum $50.

The rake at Ladbrokes Poker is on par with the industry, and uses a fixed schedule based on the table limit and number of players. Rakes are 5% of the pot with a maximum rake of between $1 and $3, depending on the number of players at the table. Reduced rake is offered for micro-limit tables. Tournaments take a fee of 10% of your buy-in.
Ladbrokes offers rakeback to players who accumulates more than 5000 Player points in a month.

The rakeback is based on a sliding scale
Player Points Rakeback
5000-9999 20%
10000-24999 25%
25000< 30%

Deposit/Withdrawal Options
Deposit and withdrawl options at Ladbrokes are rather limited, especially for withdrawls.
There is a limit to withdrawls, as you may only withdraw a maximum of £2,000 (or currency equivalent) per day from your account. To withdraw amounts in excess of £2,000 (or currency equivalent), you will have to contact customer service.
Deposit Options: Credit/debit card, Entropay, cheque/draft/P.O., wire transfer.
Withdrawal Options: Credit/debit card.

Security
Ladbrokes' poker is a part of Ladbrokes, plc., which makes it safe. The company is one of Europe′s oldest bookmakers and has a very solid reputation.

Ladbrokes Equity (do you have any?)
You certainly have equity at Ladbrokes, provided you can find a table filled with players. That’s the problem; you’d be hard pressed to find a decent filled table, unless you are playing on the weekends.
If you do manage to find players though, the sit and gos pay top 5 finishers and most players around the room are already riled up from alcohol or are not just paying attention all together. At Ladbrokes, losing is fun!
The entertainment and the lucrative sit and gos make Ladbrokes a poker room different from the rest and definitely worth a visit.
