Plus, with the addition of a license from the Gibraltar Gambling Commissioner, it means that this site is open to Canadian sports fans.

At the moment, it looks like there aren’t any football or baseball bets on offer, but that could be a result of us carrying out our review in the off-season.

It’s interesting to see how Party Poker also give you access to some old-school sports like snooker and cricket. Unfortunately, there’s no provision for horse racing or eSports. But, overall, this site should be able to appease most casual sports fans.

As well as these standard customer service features, Party Poker have also developed a reasonably useful FAQ section. This discusses things like payment methods and account queries, and is a good place to start when you sign up to this bookmaker.

We were initially a little sceptical when it came to reviewing Party Poker. But it seems that this is a pretty good sports betting site. There might not be the widest range of sports that we’ve come across, but there is enough here to suit most betting fans.

The site is fully licensed, has some good customer support methods, and all their payment methods seem to be adequate. If Party Poker could work more on their bonuses and increase the number of sports, we think that they could be onto a winner.
