I'm pretty sure international players don't play on Bovada.

My understanding was Bovada = Bodog in everything except name, and exists only to protect Bodog brand against future US legal problems. I would feel much better about our prospects if Bodog (as a parent company) was processing payouts at its same regular pace.

International players play on bodog.ca, bodog.co.uk, and bodog888.com. If my understanding is correct they are basically 3 different sites or skins just using the bodog name for marketing purposes.

Foreign players definitely play on bovada/bodog. If you are not from the US and have received a payout, please let us know. Thanks.

a friend req 4/4 approved 4/5 still no check. also got the 500$ bonus.

I requested a $2k payout and it was approved on 4/19. Called them after 18 biz days, they said it's taking more like 20 and apologized. I called them today (25 days) and they first told me it's taking 20 days and that we were "approaching that length of time with my payout which was approved on 4/20," and apologized some more. I pointed out that her information and arithmetic was wrong by a lot and asked for a supervisor.

A supervisor came on and apologized. I said not good enough, she offered me $50. I LOL'd. We went around and around and she asked what I wanted, and I said my money or an idea of when I'll get it, but that I was aware that people were receiving $500 bonuses. She assured me that I would NOT be able to get that, put me on hold, and offered me $200 when she came back. I accepted.

I play any mid-stakes game on there, but I've played more 20/40 limit holdem than anything else. I'm not a massive grinder on there but I'll play 2-4 10/20 and 20/40 games, generally, if that many are running. The point is that I must be raking a lot for them in the time that I do play, though I'm sure I don't put in the hours that many folks do. How are you getting $500 bonuses? Are they offering them out of the clear blue sky or have you called them a bunch of times, have a particular strategy, etc?

I think most of the people who got $500 were/are waiting on payouts from 2-3 weeks before yours, and/or maybe bet sports in addition to grinding. (many who did had requests from very early April)

Just a guess that your wait time wasn't long enough/you don't give bodog enough action elsewhere.

For the record I have a wire withdrawal requested in 3/29 that I have not received, as well as a bunch of checks not received, and I didn't get **** for bonus.

I don't know if this applies to us but my friend just got a 4500 wire today from bovada. however, his withdraw request was a made few months back when bovada stopped allowing WA state players from playing and forced them to withdraw to a bank account outside of the state.

Still a positive sign though.

I think so too. If you were going to screw over anyone I think you'd screw them over.
