Breaking news? Besides being slow on withdraws I've never had a problem.

Re: OFFICIAL BODOG REGULARS THREAD

you guys can make up your dream world bad case scenarios all you want and attack me because it's "hip" but let me borrow a line from the oscar winning NO COUNTY FOR OLD MEN when I say... "you can't stop what's coming...."

If anyone wants to take my wager that my profits increase by over 50% in the first year of this change (or for a longer time period if you wish), I'll be happy to.

Instead of blasting me because it makes your weewee feel better (and believe me, I know it does), why don't you look at the big picture.

Currently Bodog sucks. The payouts take a month or more. The new players have slowed DRASTICALLY. The software is terrible. Like I previously have stated, I have many poker playing friends who are fish who simply WON'T take my advice and start accounts on bodog because of the software. If you look at the 100/200/300/600 tables during the week you will see the same players on every table. Many of these players are rocks or sharks.

It's basically a race to see who will have the higher set in a set over set situation to create a big pot.

And all of you "experts" want to keep the status quo? You don't want bodog to have a marketing tool that will bring in new players and make the software comparable to the leading competitors like party or pokerstars? You want to keep the situation as dire, depressing and downright unplayable even?

I won't personally attack any of you like you did me because I actually respect and admire all of you. But I will tell you this. When a site is at the bottom it has nowhere to go but up.

The increase in max tables will not increase the number of fish at Bodog, it will increase the amount of regulars at the tables, that is all. Before you know it the fish will be gone. (See: FullTilt)

Re: OFFICIAL BODOG REGULARS THREAD

my point is once again A) nothing can be worse than status quo B) overall a promotion of new IMPROVED software can and will bring in new players C) no reason to think the fish from the sportsbook will all of a sudden abandon the site because they allow more than three tables and D) allowing more tables will allow regulars like myself to maximize their profits by allowing both tournament and cash play at the same time

I guess we can agree to disagree.

P.S. If you think the fish are gone at full tilt you haven't been playing their tournaments lately. It's a joke how bad the players are.

Im not tyring to insult you-
You just perfectly summarized why bodog has sucked of late
there arent enouggh fish right now
increasing table limits so you and all your clones can nit it up on 6 tables instead of 3 will make the games worse not better

the need better ways to fund accounts and bonuses to attract fish
not 6 tables so the site dries out even faster

I don't use poker tracker. Hell, when you're playing against the same 8 people what's the point?

i didnt say you specifically but once again you are making my point for me

adding tables when playing against a small player base doesnt accomplish anything

Agreed...let's just hope we get more new players as well. NBA playoff time can't hurt.

Re: OFFICIAL BODOG REGULARS THREAD

If you are all so anti more tables, email Bodog let them know. Do you expect them to read your minds and some how magically give you what you want? How has that been working out?

Why dont you guys try to work with Bodog to get what you want. Ie something along the line of only being able to play 3 cash game tables, but while sitting at those tables you are able to play more tournaments or observe other tables.
