RedKings is one of the better known site on the OnGame Network. If you like solid, no frills “pokerroom” style graphics then this is a good choice. The traffic levels are not what they used to be however.
The site is a good choice of those on offer on the network but the graphics are a bit like marmite – you will either love them or hate them. Personally I like the original pokerroom site and the graphics still have a certain old school feel to them even thought the software has had several versions – I especially like the tin sound when you put your chips in to the pot.
RedKings offers a good range of bonuses up to $1000 to suit all players. Which means even if you don’t have the bankroll for the max bonus there are other good deposit bonus options ideal for the lower stakes player too.
