You know, it's sh*t like this that us american players have to tolerate nowadays that make me wonder to myself ' When the f*ck are our legislators gonna get their heads out of their collective ****s and repeal the UIGEA???'. We all know it all boils down to money, tax money. If they gave a rats a** about protecting the consumer, as they claim they do, they'd have this thing hammered out by now, and we wouldn't all be trolling this thread wondering what the hell is going on, or if all of our money is where it is supposed to be. I imagine I've blinded out of the 10k by now...hopefully they will be there in the morning and my funds will be intact.

Don't give me that 'first day' line. Any competent site would have tested the crap out of it on a test port and ironed out any bugs,flaws,security holes, etc. prior to launch. Note the use of the word competent, something Bodog, or now Bovada, has no concept of.

Was hoping to wait until the repeal of UIGEA before moving to another site, but they are REALLY making Merge look like a viable option in the meantime.

Not much comfort in seeing your account balance being almost $1,000 less than what it should be.

I just have a sickening feeling in my stomach that they are going to be like "we can return your buyin but we cannot determine who won the SNG"

It'd just be so ****ing sickening if they do that.

Ehhh...I'm playing on Merge and it's a nit-fest. Been playing cash for years but had to switch to SnG's to find any enjoyment out of it in the micros with my min deposit.

Seeing tables with 9 to 11% vpip all down the list is crazy but it's the same people sitting at every table. It's Foldx8, collect small blind, Fold to you, raise 3x, collect blinds. Only monsters played at full-ring.

I'm really interested to see how they are going to handle the MTT's like the 10k guarantee that had like 50 people before it left late reg. MASSIVE overlays so if any of you guys are in there let us know how it turns out...some people are playing, some were blinding out.

Sure it is but hard to be considering all the down time lately and the unannounced changes and on and on...no way this software should have made it live in it's current state and everything that has happened up until know only reiterates that.

seems like there is a denial of service attack. you think it could be hdsmithy? the hacker from other thread who hates bodog? he pointed out that you can login without restriction. no 5 second delay to limit login attempts. a script could tie up the server easy if that is the case

Customer service is not even answering the phone now. What a joke. Talk about a textbook example of how NOT to run a business. This Odman guy has really hit new low's in the poker world. He turned a nice site into a freaking joke & a nightmare. The other poker sites must be laughing their a$$ off at the incompetence being displayed at this site. I reckon Calvin is still in denial about how bad his site turned out. Where is Lee Jones when you need him?
12-15-2011 , 12:17 AM
I was just now able to log in. However, the $12 I was playing with when the site went down has not been credited back to my account. I think I will wait until this is resolved before playing anymore.

Ten minutes on hold before speaking to the heavy-accented, hard-of-hearing "Francis," who could not refund my money nor give me an estimated time when they'd have things straightened out. At least he was polite (?)
12-15-2011 , 12:29 AM
it seems that i can log in and now turning on animations doesnt freeze the client. I wonder what other bugs they fixed?
12-15-2011 , 12:30 AM
Sounds like maybe they made the sounds better?

I cant tell
