Game Variety (6)
Unibet Poker offers a good variety of games, including some of the higher-stakes cash games and tournaments available.
The games offered at Unibet Poker are Texas Hold'em, Omaha, Omaha Hi-Lo, Seven-Card Stud, Five-Card Stud and Five-Card Draw. The games vary between No-Limit, Pot-Limit, and Fixed-Limit, with full-table games, short-handed, and heads-up tables all available. There are high-limit tables with $150/$300 stakes in Fixed-Limit, $200/$400 in No-Limit Texas Hold'em and micro-limit tables as low as 2¢/5¢. The only strange thing about the game variety is the absence of Seven-Card Stud Hi-Lo, which seems strange considering they spread the Hi version.
The large player base ensures action at most game varieties and stakes, making Unibet Poker a very good site for pretty much all poker players.
Ring Game Traffic (7)
At peak hours there are currently 1,200-1,400 real money players in the ring games (April, 2006). The overwhelming majority of the players are to be found in low to mid-stakes Limit and No-limit Hold'em games and draw poker, where Unibet has an amazingly high player attendance for a smaller poker site.
Soft Competition (7)
Unibet Poker offers relatively loose and juicy games - you just have to know where to find them. The short-handed (six players max) tables and turbo games produce wild games with viewed-flop percentages upwards of 55%. The average viewed-flop percentage for full 10-player tables is just under 40%. For the juiciest tournament play, look for the special tournaments offered, and pretty much any tournament with a buy-in under $10.
Rake (6)
The rake at Unibet Poker is on par with the industry, using a fixed schedule based on the table limit and number of players. Rakes are usually 5% of the pot, with a max rake of between $1 and $3, depending on the number of players at the table. Unibet Poker also offers a form of progressive rake rebate at micro-limits, charging only between 1¢ and 7¢ from pots at the smallest stakes, sometimes allowing for as little as 1% rake.
Support (6)
Unibet Poker offer very good e-mail and telephone support. The phone support is available in 12 languages, with the only downside being withdrawal requests can not be made between 10:00 p.m. and 10:00 a.m.

Excellent. Unibet Poker have excellent financial backing, is listed on the OMX (Swedish stock market) and have no financial problems recorded.
