Clean & simple
Littlewoods' software is intuitive and very easy to use, offering all the worthwhile poker games in the three major currencies £, $ and € and on a large variety of table limits. There are stats features built into the software which can be a useful tool to analyse your game or find a table with loose players.

Lots of loose players & newbies
There are lots of loose players at Littlewoods enabling newbies to get some great experience here without getting eaten up by the sharks. As you experience improves move onto the higher limit tables.

Our main critic is that pretty much the only game played here is Texas Hold'em the remaining games tend to be a little quiet.

Games featured:
7 Card Stud
Omaha High
Omaha High/Low
Texas Hold'em
