Software PaddyPower is part of the Ipoker network and for that reason uses Playtech software. While the software they use is extremely good and leads to both quick and reliable gameplay, the graphics are quite dull and therefore this limits the attraction to those who want to enjoy all the thrills of online poker. The software enables all the usual features, such as taking notes on players, and choosing four colour decks etc. In terms of poker traffic, it is ok, if not remarkable. A game can usually be found on both Texas Hold Em and Omaha as these tend to be the most popular games. Banking Paddypower makes banking simple, which is what you would expect from such a respected brand in the gaming industry. Customers can use the following methods when depositing money: Moneybooklers, Paypal, Credit Cards, Debit Cards. Cheques and Bank Transfer. Also customers can also put money into their online poker account at any paddy power betting shop in the country. Because of this, banking couldn’t be simpler. There is a minimum cash deposit of £10 when transferring funds onto your account.
