Overbet Affiliate Program

Overbet Affiliate Program Review

Overbet is a newer site on the Merge Gaming Network. Although the site is a new kid on the block, management has many years experience in the industry and we don't feel should be viewed as a liability in this case. The site markets four pros such as Scott Palmer, Josh Tieman, Martijn Gerrits and a Mystery Pro. Overbet is a site you definitely want to have a look at if your site attracts a lot of US players. With the support of sponsored pros and Merge's growth as a network, players are increasingly attracted to sites like Overbet, especially those from the US.

In addition, players signing up for Overbet can take advantage of a VIP program as well as other popular promotions such as a Bad Beat Jackpot and a Royal Flush bonus. Players also enjoy relatively good games, and great software. If you have a lot of US-based traffic, Merge network rooms are "must promotes."

Overbet Room Review

Overbet is one of the newest sites to join the Merge Gaming Network, the largest to accept players from the US in terms of real money traffic. Overbet is home to four well-known online pros including a special "Mystery Pro." Peak time for traffic on most days is around 02:00 GMT, which is quite late compared to most poker sites. This is due to the large amount of North American players at the virtual felts. During these times, there are well over 2,300 real money cash game players at the tables, with 1,600 on average during the whole day No Limit Hold'em is by far the game of choice these days and that is no different at Overbet. There is also light activity at the Fixed Limit Hold'em and Pot Limit Omaha tables. In addition, Overbet offers a ton of additional game options, even though action is quite light at most of them. Games include various forms of Omaha, Stud, and Draw, not to mention a healthy assortment of mixed games such as HORSE and RASH. Sit N Go tournaments also get good traffic at the No Limit Hold'em tables, and to a lesser extent: Fixed Limit Hold'em, Pot Limit Hold'em, Pot Limit Omaha and Limit Omaha. For multi-table tournament players, over $4 million in guaranteed tournaments run each month. The $100,000 guaranteed held each Sunday is the premier weekly event. Players can enter with a $100+$9 buy-in or VIP Points.

New players signing up for Overbet are eligible for a 100% up to $600 sign-up bonus with a clearance rate of 75 VIPs per $1 of bonus money. VIP Points are earned according to the rake that is generated at ring games and tournaments: 10 VIPs per $1 of rake, which is the equivalent of a 13% rakeback rate. The bonus will release in $5 increments and will expire after 90 days or once a withdrawal has been made. Points earned towards the bonus can also be applied to the VIP Program.

Overbet ended rakeback for new sign-ups as of June 1st. In the place of rakeback, Overbet allows players to exchange VIP Points for cash that yields up to 45% in rakeback equivalent. The rate at which players can exchange VIP Points for cash will vary by the VIP status level that each player achieves, which is determined by VIP Points earned over the lifetime of a players account. Players will get to keep the status level they have earned as long as they earn VIP Points every 60 days. If not, the VIP Points will "decay" at a predetermined rate. In addition to the VIP Point exchanges, players can also qualify for special freerolls up to $8,000 per month, depending on VIP status level.

Players from the US who wish to deposit can deposit with Visa and echecks. Under special circumstances, players can also use Click2pay. Players have the option to withdraw via check but there is a $15 fee assessed. Non-US players have a large selection of additional options including Neteller, Moneybookers, Click2pay, Ecocard, ClickandBuy, Paysafecard, Entropay, Instadebit, Giropay and Netcents.
