Bookmakers margin

Range of Sports: Pokerstars offers a reasonable amount of sporting options for you to play with on their site. With a total of 27 sports (including their specials market) the choice is overall pretty decent. Although the list is relatively large it does lack much variation or alternative betting options with the only interesting or unusual market being the specials market. The special market mainly focuses on UK and French politics.

Range of Bets and Markets: The range of markets available on Pokerstars is massive. Although the vast majority of events have a market ranging anywhere from 40-150 markets (and this can fluctuate a lot depending on the popularity of events) some events can have all the way up to 280 markets which is a massive amount! This huge potential amount of markets and great average means that bettors of all kinds will have more than enough choice when it comes to finding and placing a bet.

Betting Limits: The betting limits vary on Pokerstars sports from sport to sport varying from £1,000,000 all the way to £10,000. The limits for individual sports can be found on the “maximum payouts” section located at the bottom of any page.

The in play betting experience on Pokerstars sports is overall as expected. With quickly updating odds and plenty of markets available on a great range of sports there is loads of choice when it comes to placing bets. Although there is a limited amount of live streaming the animations depicting events taking place are pretty good and show what is happening pretty well.
