I won't paste her message but she did say that "LV is universally associated with gambling and fun."

In addition, she linked this article discussing the name.

At least the software update makes more sense now, if their entire name brand is centered around the word "nonsense."

Wierd. I also don't like how they are bragging about how no one has jurisdiction over them. Doesn't make me exactly feel safe.

There was another article where they do admit the .lv is solely to make people think about las vegas. Which I guess makes sense, but for anyone who knows anything about domain names they are going to know its not las vegas.

My assumption is that that feel this "if your smart enough to know .lv is for latvia then we don't want you on our site because you have a brain"

Hi, as of today I was made aware that Bovada does not run on MAC platforms. I was wondering if anyone knew how to access a Virtual PC or a program for a Microsoft emulator. Thanks!

The sounds in Bovada really piss me off. So I tried going into the C:\bovada\resources\
sounds folder and deleting the offending wave files

well guess what When I rerun bovada it reconstructs those files; the problem is i only want 2 hear the 'my sound' turn - nothing else. and bovada onhy lets you turn it all on or all off - no 'granularity'

a way around this?

you cant delete them while the program is running winxp wont let u

Uhm, yeah, this is tilting me and making me insane as well

Anyone care about the holiday promo they are running? It's damn near sad, $30 whopping bucks, but the freeroll payout seems decent. $150 tourney ticket for top 25 places.

[GrapeApe]

the current holiday promo is actually really sweet. the freeroll gives out 25 seats for 10 days ( 250 seats) and its a fairly easy $60 bonus if you do the $30 twice. $ in your account , no bonus clearing

Yes, cashout, uninstall software and go play on a site that doesn't openly **** on its customers.

I would be fine with Bovada's software IF THE DAMN CHECK/FOLD BUTTON WOULD WORK AND NOT STILL POP UP THE TABLE AND MAKE YOU CLICK FOLD.

I can't believe this hasn't been fixed yet!

Why are you surprised this hasn't been fixed yet? Are you new to Bodog? They had obvious bugs going back 4-5 years that they never ever fixed and for years blamed people's firewalls and internet connections. They still have major security holes that they flat out lied about fixing.
