They also attract the average player and have many juicy games that are not hard to beat. They have a well designed program that combines nice looking graphics with a sleek interface.

Poker School
Littlewoods Poker lists the terminology of their games. They also provide poker rules and a section on how to poker.



Software and Graphics

Their software has stunning graphics and superb game play. Their software is part of the Cassava network, the same people who provide for 888.com. Their interface is brightly coloured making it pleasing to the eye and you can play in multiple currencies. The interface provides numerous useful features like hands per hour, average pot size, and flop percentages. A feature that is nice is you can play up to 12 tables at once for those who love to multi-table.
You can make these tables in “mini mode” which is surprisingly clear and easy. Overall their software has some excellent features, runs very smooth and is designed for fast game play.
