Betfair Poker change
So, what's the big news? One of the best-known sports betting, casino and online poker brands, Betfair Poker will overcome a big change in the upcoming days. Betfair Poker currently runs on Ongame Network but there is also a new version of Betfair launched as 'New Betfair Poker'. The new poker site will run as a part of iPoker Network Tier One along with world-class poker sites such as Winner Poker, Bet365, Paddy Power, Poker770, Titan, William Hill, etc. Do not worry, the old version will not go anywhere. It will become Classic Betfair and will continue to run on Ongame Network. At least until summer.
This kind of transitional phase will last for six months. In the end of this period, Classic Betfair Poker will be closed permanently. Naturally, poker affiliates as well as poker players must have a lot of questions considering this transfer – whether any affiliate and rakeback details will be changed, how will your poker funds be processed, etc. Below we will give you some of the most important details but for individual issues do not hesitate to contact us.
