 PartyBets.com Summary
With 888 muscling in on the sportsbook scene, it was inevitable that PartyGaming would do exactly the same thing. In fact, it's puzzling that it's taken these poker and casino giants so long to establish a sportsbook product, although they'll certainly make the landscape very interesting.
The one area that currently makes PartyBets stand out is their odds on the big sporting events. It's clear that one of their acquisition strategies is to draw new customers in by offering 2/1 when other bookmakers have 15/8 available. Nevertheless, it's still early days for PartyGaming, who are at least getting the basics right with their attractive zippy website, solid range of markets and odds, along with a round-the-clock customer services. They also have the added advantage of being a trusted and reputable brand who won't be going anywhere in a hurry, while there are sure to be plenty of customer promotions on the go as they try to expand this product.
PartyBets.com Games Available
Although most gaming sites offer a worldwide take on sporting events, there is a definite American feel to the Party Bets site. This means that lovers of American football, basketball and baseball are extremely well represented and they could find many intriguing bets. If you are not a fan of these sites your choices will be more limited as the remaining options are not as plentiful as can be found on other sites.
The footballing options provide the standard first goal-scorer bets and various match handicap bets. Like the Gamebookers site, there is also the option to play the financial markets and place a bet on which ball drops first in the UK national lottery.
The problem highlighted on the Gamebookers site where it seems as the Sportsbook is the only option available is repeated here and it takes some navigating to find additional gaming features. It is not until a user clicks through the Casino option on the right side of the screen that more opportunities are available. This is where options such as Keno, Bingo and a variety of games including table, slots and video games can be found. There is no doubt that casual visitors may feel there is a distinct lack of options on the site.
PartyBets.com Site Usability
As Party Bets falls under the Party Gaming umbrella, it may not be a surprise to find that the site is very close to the Gamebookers site. One or two colours may be different but the layout and content is extremely close to its sister site. You can imagine Party Gaming thinking about their different sites and thinking why they should bother using two different styles and designs when one can be used in various ways. This saves the company money; it allows users of both sites to remain comfortable but it means that any limitations experienced by Gamebookers will also be featured here.
