Team viewer is best option. Imo. Keep sleep off or a short password.

So I tried to contact them at poker@bovada.lv and I got this response:

Quote:
Hand Histories for Cash Games, Sit and Go's and Scheduled Tournaments will be available for download 24 hours after the game session has been completed and the files will remain available for downloading up to 7 days.

Since the game you'd like to check was from April 28, 2014, we can no longer download it. However, you may still check your Hand History by selecting 'Account' in the Poker software and click on 'Hand History' tab.
This is very frustrating because I played a lot on April 28th/29th and just now found about the hand converter software so that I import hands to PokerTracker. Does anyone know if they are mistaken or if I'm out of luck? I'm surprised that the info. in the other forum here was incorrect.

No money in poker, everyone is solid.

You can view the hand history for up to 31 days (by going to game transactions, clicking on the tournament/table, and clicking show hands), but can only download for up to 7 days.

Ive never utilized the Bovada deposit bonus. If I cash out, then email them and ask if I can take advantage of it as a redeposit. Ha anybody had any luck with this?

If you've deposited before, then you already utilized it. There's no code or anything.

Restart client. If it's been going for a day or so the cashier stops working, but works fine once you restart.

The information you read elsewhere on 2+2 was incorrect. The Bodog Network only provides downloadable hand histories for 7 days and no longer offers them in that particular format after that, no matter how high you attempt to escalate the issue. You may of course view the hand histories in your poker client for 31 days.

I'm sorry to ask this question, but can someone confirm that there is no backdoor rakeback deals on bovada. And I'm not talking about points to tickets.
If there is (and I don't think there is), no one's going to be telling you about it on a poker forum for all to see. And that's not a discussion we'll be allowing in this thread - not only would an affiliate that offered such a deal be contravening site T&C's, but allowing such discussion is just going to encourage the 5 post spammers and scammers to start PMing everyone trying to get signups.

I was offered the bonus and am a winning player at Bovada. To me it seems the relevant metric is not your accounts win/loss but probably your rake generated(In the sense that they want to encourage you to rake more, not in the sense that more is better). I clear probably ~200 points a week when there's no bonus and my bonus maxes at 350 points. Seems like their obvious motivation would be to increase total rake for the site. If you're accruing 1k points/week why should they offer you a bonus? You're playing anyway. I also would be somewhat surprised if they keep records on people's winrates, although I guess they could use some kind of primitive total account balance/hands played or something.

As for the total number of winning players, 30% does strike me as pretty high. The 100 game sample isn't very convincing, and the definition of a winning player simply having a net positive result is also a little dubious. It's a somewhat tricky question though since better/more winning players will tend to play more. It's better for the game though if people believe they have a greater chance of winning, so yeah sure, 30% it is.

the rake is the only winner at almost all stakes.

Really what happened is that my doomswitch turned on as soon as i got my ftp monies.
you play micros. you cant beat the rake. its really that simple. do you keep records in pt or hm? if you do, look at how much you are paying in bb/100 to the rake. you cant win.

only a handful of the elite regs at higher stakes can make decent money. and their edges are pretty damn small too.

Rake is easy to beat, micros are the softest games available, if you can't beat them that says nothing about the state of online poker, it just speaks to your lack of knowledge, or lack of emotional control.

I really don't understand the larger purpose of this discussion/argument. You're trashing the guy that props up your winrate. Let me know how that goes...

I'm deflating a delusion. If you know how poker works you know BE players are bad for winning players. If I'm "trashing", some big loser than they're so delusional it's not like it would matter. If it hurts my winrate by some super tiny percentage (which it won't because I don't play the micros), then whatever, I speak my mind.

Going to start open sitting 100nl zone most days in June, I think if there are ~10 people some rec's might consider hopping in. Or have people failed to get it going in the past?
