The Victor Chandler Company is a very well established British sportsbook company that has been around for over sixty years, and now runs a successful online poker room. The room itself experienced a much-needed overhaul and it now has much-improved graphics, with software that runs smoother than ever on the new Playtech software engine.
The VC Poker room runs the VC Student poker championships, which has become very popular with University students across the UK. This championship takes place over a series of tournaments and qualifiers across the UK in different Universities resulting in a televised final at the end. The championship has been running for 3 years, and this year’s final is estimated to have $100,000 up for grabs for the winner. It is possible to qualify for the tournament fro free or for as little as $5. |

| VC Poker offers two separate sign-up bonuses for all new depositing players. The first is a 100% match bonus up to $200, which can be redeemed by collecting ‘action points’ before the bonus period expires. The second bonus available is a 150% match bonus up to $500 with a free seat into a WSOPE satellite. The second bonus obviously appears to be far more attractive that the first, but be careful as the second bonus is harder to redeem than the first. |

| The VC Poker room has excellent software along with an easy to use table interface. The layout makes it easy to keep up with the action so that you wont find yourself in the middle of any hand without knowing what the exact situation is. Numerical values accompany bets, which makes it easy to determine how much you have to call or how much another player has raised before the action gets to you. The poker client itself can be downloaded very quickly from the site and it is simple to install. The red and black colour scheme for the lobby and table works well and makes the room look very classy and stylish. |

| The VC Poker room receives a very high volume of traffic being part of the iPoker network. The room does not accept US players and so peak times for traffic will be in the late afternoon time in the UK. The standard of play at VC is varied, with slightly more loose and fishy players than there are tight and experienced players. |
