About The Pools
The Pools is a legendary sports betting and casino site that we’re launching on their 100th birthday! It’s not often we get to say we’re listing a truly iconic piece of British history but here we are.
Originally known as the Littlewoods Football pool, The Pools was created in Liverpool in 1923 where people could buy coupons and make bets on the weeks footballing results. The winners would receive the largest slice of the pie. In its peak, over 14 million players entered, meaning the prizes were really quite breath-taking for the time.
Fast-forward 100 years and the The Pools is one of the most innovative and user friendly casino sites out there, which although fully immersed in modernity, also nods to its prestigious past.
To celebrate their 100 years, they’ve relaunched their website and app and we’re very honoured to be able to share this historic moment with them. Also, it’s just a really good site with connections to some of our favourite brands like Kwiff Casino.
Bonuses & Promotions
Our exclusive welcome offer is a mammoth. Deposit and stake £20 or more on any slot and you’ll unlock the chance to get an enormous number of spins on a pretty epic slot. The welcome offer is generous and comes with low wagering requirements but it’s not silly and unsustainable for the casino to run, so we expect it to be hanging around for a while.
There are some fantastic ongoing casino promos running at the moment. Try out the following:
- Pragmatic Play’s Daily Drop and Win
- Free Spins Wednesday
- Megaways Weekend
Remember with all promos check the terms and conditions as they can often change. You can find more details on the The Pools website.
Games Available
The Pools has such a wide-ranging variety of games, it’s really quite spectacular. It might be the best range of games on a site that we currently feature? And that’s really saying something. These are the main categories of games available at The Pools:
- Lotto – These include great new lottery games like Lucky 4 Life and Lucky Clover which places bets on the Irish lotto.
- Football Pools – You can still be apart of classic Football pools like it’s 1923, but the offerings have updated quite substantially. The Classic pools has the biggest prize pot, but there are a half a dozen more games to get stuck in to.
- Arcade – This includes lots of fun, retro games including digital scratch cards.
- Simple Bet – This offers super simple betting options for beginners on top sporting events – no need to make it complicated!
- Casino – This section is our real meat and potatoes. They have everything for live dealer casino to your favourite slot games. We would be impressed if this was the only section they had!
- Sports – for all the sports bettors who like a cheeky flutter.
- Free to Play – including the game Footie5.
Final Thoughts
We haven’t been this excited for a new launch in a while. The Pools, fresh from celebrating its 100th birthday, is one of the most comprehensive online casino and sportsbook sites we’ve ever seen. And for no other reason, you should give it a go.
