BetVictor have always given off a lot of energy, with their quirky advertising campaigns and charismatic (now ex) leader, Victor Chandler, giving the brand a customer facing reputation and keeping the business feeling human. Chandler himself is a bit of a trail blazer in many ways, being one of the first bookmakers to take his business online as well as leading the industry charge offshore to Gibraltar where the company is based, and where many others soon followed.<\/p>\n

BetVictor is the self-styled Gentleman of Bookmaking, delivering top notch odds on the Football as well as a long list of other sports categories, and doing it all with\u00a0humour, sophistication, and class.<\/p>\n

It would be fair to say that the Sportsbook is the favourite child in the BetVictor family, yet the Casino offering still manages to put many of its competitors to shame. Over 1500 games are waiting to be played, from old classics to exciting new offerings from industry stalwarts and a few hungry new developers too.<\/p>\n

A champion of new technology and a leader in their field, BetVictor have often been ahead of the pack with the latest industry trends, and they aren\u2019t afraid of hard work either \u2013 only 400 staff run their worldwide operation.<\/p>\n

Football, Racing, and Tennis bettors are well catered for here, and plenty of enhanced odds and innovative features and promotions make this a bookie that is well equipped to look after returning customers and new punters alike.<\/p>\n

The Live Casino is mainly powered by Evolution Gaming<\/a> and is pretty meaty, even before Pragmatic Play enter the fray in support, and it’s especially good for Blackjack fans, but Poker players may feel somewhat disregarded since BetVictor ceased Poker operations in 2017 due to poor take up. Still, the company manages to pull in 500,000 players globally and turns over more than \u00a31 billion annually, so they probably don\u2019t need to start worrying any time soon.<\/p>\n

Markets & Odds<\/h2>\n

\"BetVictor<\/p>\n

This is probably BetVictor\u2019s main selling point, especially for Football bets. They consistently offer some of the best odds available on major European Football leagues, and this has been confirmed by a leading independent odds comparison site. \u00a0Not only that, but the coverage and depth of markets in this category is astounding. Global fixtures including women\u2019s and youth team games are available, with ante post betting options on practically everything.<\/p>\n

You may never have heard of some of them, but a win on Hapoel Nahalat Yehuda can be just as profitable as a win on Chelsea.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s never a dull moment if you bet on the Horses, with all races from UK & Ireland getting full coverage as well as Best Odds Guaranteed, plus, meetings as far away as South Africa, America, and the UAE are available. Tennis is another favourite, and you can bet on matches from France, Australia,\u00a0and the US daily. It\u2019s also rare to see odds available in Indo and Chinese, but they are an option here, alongside Fractional, Decimal, and American odds.<\/p>\n

Speaking of odds, BetVictor are particularly strong in the field of Enhanced Odds, Bet Boosts, and Daily Specials. They will be evident when you explore each category or you can view them all together on the appropriate page. The Results Service, Bet Calculator, and Stats only enhance this already professional betting environment.<\/p>\n

Overall there are around 35 sports categories, with Futsal, 9 Ball Pool, and the lesser spotted Water Polo among them; and the wealth of American Sporting events deserves a mention, too. To be honest, you can\u2019t go far wrong here.<\/p>\n

Live Betting\/Streaming<\/h2>\n

\"BetVictor<\/p>\n

The in-play area does work well, we just want to make that clear. We particularly like the simplicity of the overview which makes browsing in-play markets uncomplicated and easy to manage. It’s just a bit sparse, even more so when looking at upcoming markets as opposed to those already in-play.<\/p>\n

Once you open an event things are a little better visually, and just as good from a user perspective. It\u2019s quick and it\u2019s clean and there are stats available via the info graphic (although pretty limited on smaller fixtures), and BetVictor have developed all of this themselves too which makes it unique, so kudos for that.<\/p>\n

Something else which works well is the ability to toggle the bet type that shows up in list view, making it easier to place popular bets without having to open an event if you don’t want to. Combined, these make browsing faster and personalised to some degree; once in event view you can also minimise anything you aren’t interested in and bypass swathes of unwanted bet types using the filters.<\/p>\n

There are usually at least 100 events to explore even at quieter times, with Football, Basketball, and Tennis taking the lions share; and actually, BetVictor cover more sports than many other bookies can claim to do. Plus, favourable odds combined with a wide range of bet types make for plenty of value and variety within each event.<\/p>\n

If you like to stream the fixtures you are betting on then they offer streaming on UK & Irish Horse Racing if you have bet at least \u00a31, and streaming on most other sports is available with a funded account or a bet in the last 24 hours, so it’s ticking a lot of live betting boxes.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a product which functions perfectly and offers a lot when it comes to the nuts and bolts of betting, and all done with just the right amount of flare.<\/p>\n

Software, Platform, Games<\/h2>\n

\"BetVictor<\/p>\n

Entering the Casino, a classic simple design gives a polished effect that is easy on the eye and feels like a professional environment in which to play. The interface ties in well by not bombarding players with options, instead laying out a clear menu to break up the slate of games, although the option to whittle down the selection by provider as well as category would have been useful. There is a search bar too, but even so we would have been grateful for a few more options here so as not to be faced with a screen of 100s of slots, but actually, the reduced size of the game tiles makes the choice easier to take in and process.<\/p>\n

We can\u2019t fault the mechanics; the site is responsive and graphics load gently in a silky manner. There is actually something of the gentleman\u2019s club about the interface which we really enjoy – a whisky and brandy type of gentleman\u2019s club, not a dances and fluffy handcuffs one.<\/p>\n

The game library exceeds 1500 in number, and Microgaming<\/a> seem to be fighting with NYX for the top spot. NetEnt<\/a>, Pragmatic Play, IGT<\/a>, Play’N Go<\/a>, Quickspin and others have a pretty even spread of the rest. These are all instant play, and include plenty of Megaways titles which have become all the rage.<\/p>\n
