Gamebookers is an international betting site. Many sites, even though they operate from countries other than the US, focus on US sporting events like Football, Basketball, or Baseball. GameBookers has a line up of bets based on games like rugby, volleyball, cricket, and darts. Quite the change of pace.
The poker room is driven by the prima software, and is only a small part of the offerings from GameBookers. In fact, looking over the site, it seems almost like an afterthought. Well, it's certainly not the focus.
There is no information about the tournaments taking place on the network. There is little more than a quick primer on each of the games at the site. It seems like the poker room was added as a extra offering for those who might want to try playing the game, not as a room made for those who are serious players.
Even with the bare-bones approach, with microgaming powering the room, you can be sure of steady traffic, and familiar software.
Overall, if you're just interested in playing poker, there are more attractive rooms on the network.
