British online gambling has expanded even more quickly in the past few years than most would have expected, and the growth has been led by a thirst for sports betting, according to newly published UK Online Gambling Intelligence Report. Growth figures Online gambling advertising has increased by 1,386 percent in the UK since 2007, according to the report, which conducted in-depth market analysis of keywords, brands and statistics covering the industry. It pointed out that this advertising growth is indicative of the continuing competitiveness within the gambling sector. Sports betting dominates online gambling, accounting for 45% of all search impression volume, it found. During 2012, the search impression volume from mobile devices grew 75%, with sports betting again account for the largest share. Horse racing was the largest segment with sportsbooks, whether judging by search volume or revenues. Leading brands Unsurprisingly for a report conducted by a British firm, William Hill’s online sportsbook was found to have come out on top of its competitors for sports betting revenue and search volume. Online casino and online poker were both led by rival 888, which the report said achieved its success through an aggressive strategy across organic and paid search. Other major brands to compete strongly across multiple platforms (sports betting, casino, etc) were Ladbrokes and PokerStars. Intercasino was one operator to see “a dramatic downturn in their organic performance,” the report said, although it pointed out that this may be partly due to the historical impact of a Google algorithm update.

Latest Deals Bally Technologies has been developing casino games for Las Vegas since 1932, but its recent activity shows that it is intent on penetrating the all-important European and British online markets. Just last week the company announced a partnership with Mr Green Online Casino that will see it bring its wide range of slots to a British audience. Plans are also reportedly underway to begin developing mobile games for Android smartphones and tablets, which should see it expand its reach even further.
CasinoUK is the quintessential British online casino. They are committed to providing players with a huge selection of games, the right promotions and outstanding customer service. Did you know that they also have incredible video poker options too? Top 5 Video Poker Titles 5. Bonus Deuces Wild - A fantastic game for great payouts and a little variation from your weekend poker game. The goal of this game is easy - score a winning hand by getting one or more deuces in your final hand. You can play as many hands as you'd like to so winning is easier than most other Poker games. 4. 3 Card Poker - 3 Card Poker is not your average game. Players that have placed the Ante wager can choose to fold or continue by placing a Play wager, equal to the Ante. Hands are then shown and wagers are selected. The dealer needs a Queen high or better to play and if it's not there, the Ante wager pays 1:1. In the event of a tie, there will be no action on the Ante and Player bets. 3. Texas Hold 'Em Bonus Poker - Players use a 52 card deck as usual and each player makes a bet, as well as a bonus bet. The dealer will deal two cards to the player and two to his/herself. Check, Fold or Play by making a double wager. 2. All Aces - This is a great game for beginners. Players are paid extra when hitting 4 Aces. Players with 4 aces in their hand are paid 400x their bet. Wager from 1 to 5 coins and for maximum payout all 5 coins must be wagered. 1. Jacks or Better - Biggest payouts are for the rarest hands. Five cards are displayed on the screen, and hands with Jacks or better pay out.
Ladbrokes has taken a leaf out of Marlon Brando’s Godfather, making punters "an offer they can’t refuse" in its latest TV advertising campaign – humorously nicknamed "The oddsfather." The Oddsfather In the first of five advertisements, the Oddsfather (played by Tiziano Crudeli) is seen sitting in an armchair, wearing a small Ladbrokes ring on his pinky finger and stroking his pet hedgehog. With his henchman (played by Chris Kamara) behind him, the Godf woops, Oddsfather promises two punters fantastic odds on sports betting. Ladbrokes’ campaign will run for 12 months on ITV, Channel 4 and BSkyB. The first two advertisements have been designed to promote Ladbrokes’ new offer of double-enhanced live football odds. Three more ads will be released later in the advertising series to promote online, mobile and casino gambling. Watch Out For Ads TV viewers around Britain will already have seen the first ad during last week’s Glorious Goodwood horseracing carnival and during the ongoing Ashes Test Series between England and Australia. The campaign will expand at the beginning of the football season this week, with one about live odds to air during the Community Shield between Manchester United and Wigan Athletic on August 11, and during the first week of the Barclays Premier League the following weekend on August 17.

The welcome offer at Winner Sports was just kicked up a notch and players who sign up will now benefit from a new bonus that offers £50 in free bets after betting only £25. This is only available for players within the UK market and the change came into effect last month, on the 28th. Bonus Increase The popular online sportsbook used to offer £20 for free to place on bets provided by the bookmaker for new customers who wagered £10 after making their first deposit. However, this proved to be a bit lower than what some punters wanted and so, Winner Casino quickly responded to the feedback and increased the bonus from £20 to £50. It also means that new customers will now have to bet £25 before they can get the free bets, but given the fact that Winner has some of the sharpest lines and covers sports from around the world, this shouldn’t be difficult at all. About Winner Sports Winner is a very big brand in the online gambling industry and its Sports section is the main product, joined by options for Live Betting, Casino Games, Live Games, Poker and Rummy. The bookmaker based in the UK features all of the popular sports from around the globe, with a focus on European leagues and games. Football is of course the most popular and comes with the most betting options but punters can easily choose from other sports, such as tennis, horse racing, American football, basketball and more. The interface makes it very easy to select the sport and the game in order to create a quick bet slip with the perfect combination of odds.
