William Hill sport betting
Bookmaker William Hill is one of the largest bookmakers in Australia. The company’s market capitalization is at a level above 4 000 000 000 AUD.
Among the advantages of the bookmaker can be called a huge number of positions in the list of most sports – football, hockey, basketball, tennis, horse racing, Formula-1, UFC.
The choice of rates
The company’s clients can place bets on several dozen different sports. William Hill football has a wide painting – about 80-100 positions for matches of different levels of popularity. At the same time, in other sports, the number of events is lower: at the level of 30-35 markets. This is a high indicator in comparison with the world leaders among competitors.
You can make a bet in the pre-match General events – outcome, total, handicap. In addition, the mural has additional markets that form the amplitude of performance events and handicaps. Also in this bookmaker company, there are bets on statistics – in each sport you can find such betting options.
E-Sports is also represented in the main line by a large number of competitions – there are about 40-45 markets on average for Dota, Counter Strike and League of Legends matches.
Live
In live, the number of markets in the mural doesn’t change much. Towards the end of the match, the bookmaker blocks access to the bet, then removes all betting options. This measure is standard for betting companies, and William Hill allows its bettors to play almost until the last minute of the game.
Mural in William Hill football in live can reach 500 different events when it comes to top matches. Games of less rated tournaments are characterized by a much smaller painting – from 30 markets and higher. In other sports, the proportion between top-ranked matches and low-rated matches remains, but the painting is slightly poorer: for example, in basketball, the maximum number of markets for NBA matches reaches 200 events.
Minimum and maximum bids
The minimum for betting in William Hill bookmaker is 0.05 AUD the Maximum is calculated individually for each game. The bookmaker allows you to place bets on amounts up to 3800 AUD — this is the largest bet size in the history of the company. The bookmaker does not officially set any restrictions on the results of winnings.
Special function
In the Arsenal of William Hill bookmaker special options include the following:
- Top bids;
- Statistics;
- Video broadcasts (TV) of matches.
Top bets is a section that contains the most popular betting options for all players of the service in different sports. Customers of the bookmaker will be able to see what all the players in the world are betting on more often and adjust their choice if necessary.
Match statistics are available for past and live games. In this section, players can view the results of games in different sports and use this information to choose a bet. William Hill TV broadcasts all matches in real time. Players need to log in to the site to view it.
William Hill Casino
The official website of William Hill Casino is operated by WHG International Limited, a company registered in Gibraltar.
In the Casino section, games are divided into thematic categories:
- Slots-slot machines and video slots,
- Live Dealer-models with real croupiers,
- Table-Board games,
- Card – the card game,
- Jackpots – models with cumulative jackpots,
- New – latest news.
Many sections have additional selection parameters that allow you to sort models by different criteria.
The Rules tab provides a detailed overview of the gambling rules.
Free mode for testing in the demo version is available, but many models cannot be run in this format. Moreover, this feature is not offered to unregistered users.
Games with live dealers
The Live Casino contains 104 games from the well-known developer Evolution Gaming. The range of entertainment includes roulette, blackjack, poker tables, SIC-Bo and wheel of fortune. Demo versions of games with live dealers are not available at the casino.
This section provides a VIP program for players with special privileges. After receiving the corresponding status, the client receives:
- Personal manager and personal service in live video chat;
- Attractive cash bonuses;
- VIP tables with high stakes in blackjack and roulette.
The decision to assign VIP status is made by the administration, which notifies the client by email. The invitation to the club comes to those who regularly play at high-stakes tables.
Jackpots
William Hill Casino has an impressive selection of games with progressive jackpots from Playtech and other software providers. In all sections of the institution, they are placed on separate tabs with the corresponding name. The most popular models and less well-known games are available there.
Software and slot machines
In all sections of the casino collected more than 1500 gambling games from:
- NetEnt,
- Blueprint,
- Red Tiger,
- Microgaming
In the “Casino” section, you can sort titles by categories: roulette, cards, and jackpots. The player can also choose a new product or one of the most popular devices for the game. Similar selection parameters are also available in other sections. By clicking on the “i” icon in the lower right corner of each slot machine, the player will get a brief description of the title, its bonus features, and see the RTP indicator.
You can find a specific slot on the site by name, but there is no single database for all sections, so you will have to navigate through the pages in search of the desired slot machine. It will be very difficult for a player who does not know the specifics of the site to navigate, they will simply leave without finding what they were looking for. Also, the games do not have introductory modes, so users can not play free slots at Casino.
Card games, roulette and jackpots are divided into separate subsections in the “Casino” tab. The cards, in turn, are sorted by types: blackjack, video poker, and other games. Other major sections also have filters for finding the entertainment you need.
But if we talk directly about William Hill as a casino, it represents three large sections:
- Online Casino Vegas William Hill
- Poker-room
- Bingo room
We will tell you about them in detail in our review.

William Hill Poker-room
William Hill Poker offers a wide variety of cash games and tournaments, convenient software, and a profitable loyalty program-these are the main reasons for the popularity of this poker room.
William Hill Poker attracts newcomers and regulars, because for the former there are low minimum limits and a lot of freerolls, and for the latter-tables and tournaments with large buy-ins and selections for major live series. Moreover, new players can play against each other on tables where there are no professionals.
Poker uses software from the renowned developer Playtech.. This allows you to quickly interact and switch between poker activities, as well as easily search and sort them.
The main page displays the most popular games and tournaments in the form of tiles, which you can enter with one click. All available tables and competitions are filtered by currency, type of poker, and game format.
In the “My Info” tab, the user can manage their tournaments, view bonuses, and change the interface settings.
As the game progresses, you can change the card shirt and table theme, customize the animation, buy chips, see the hand history, and write notes about your opponents. In the tournament lobby, the player will have access to information about their prizes, stack levels, participants, structure, and tables.
Traffic
William Hill Poker is not one of the largest poker rooms in terms of traffic. For example, there are 4,000-4,500 players playing in the peak evening hours, and this number is reduced by about 2 times in the morning and afternoon hours. The picture of the playing field is standard – at low limits, beginners and William Hill betters predominate, while at medium and high limits, regulars predominate.
Active play is played on all limits up to 1/2 AUD inclusive, and on tables with higher limits, opponents can only be found in the evening hours.
Games provided
William Hill Poker players are offered 7 poker modes:
- Game cache

To separate newcomers from regulars, there are special tables where users who have registered no more than 90 days can play. You can filter all tables by type of poker, number of players, and bet size.
This mode is the only one in the Poker room, where there are many tables with a game for British pounds.

Bonuses and loyalty program

As a rakeback, the above-described points are awarded in the amount of 10 pieces for 1 AUD rake in cash games and 1 AUD tournament fee.
