It’s time to take another look at one of our recommended online casino sites, and this time we will check out the Betfred online casino again. Betfred does not have a string of betting shops in Ireland, so is probably not one of the best known even though it is now one of the top four in the UK having recently acquired the UK Tote. The absence of betting shops on our High Streets should not however mean that we overlook the Betfred online casino as a possible source of our casino games. Betfred launched their online casino in 2005, and have branded themselves as the Bonus King by offering quite generous introductory bonuses across the whole site, including a three stage welcome bonus for new casino games players which can total as much as £500 if you satisfy all the play through requirements. There is also an alternative £50 welcome bonus on their casino games page and a £50 free bet for new sports gamblers. We note that Betfred have recently introduced two new slots on their games page, the first of which is called Grand Monarch and has 50 pay lines plus a £5 start bonus for just a £5 stake. The second new slot game at Betfred is Siberian Storm, which we are told has created quite a following in American casinos, and is certainly different in presentation. Siberian Storm has five reels in a hexagonal format which is claimed to provide the player with a massive 720 ways to win, partly because unlike many other slots it pays out on lines both ways, ie. left to right and right to left. Betfred online casino has all the features one would expect from a good online casino site, including a live casino offering Blackjack, Roulette, Baccarat and Hold’em, plus a very interesting Virtual racing feature which enables betting on horseracing, greyhound racing, motor racing, speedway and indeed football. Whatever your taste in casino games, we’re sure you will find something to interest you on the Betfred site so log on from our home page and give it a try.
