LMAO...Bodog is so ****ing rigged, and anyone who thinks otherwise is in denial. I understand varience, but the **** that happens on that site is so astronomically impossible it is suprising that anyone plays there after their first deposit. I am still on my first deposit, and just as i'm writing this---

0.50-1.00 NLHE, 10h-6h (BB), button raises 4 BB, SB folds, I call. FLOP: 10-J-10, button bets 5.00, I call, TURN: 10-J-10-6, button bets 12.00, I go all in

The mouther****er has JJ. Not just one instance either, it has been **** like this 2 days straight.

IF YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT PLAYING ON BODOG, PLEASE DON'T. GO TO CARBON, IT MAY TAKE A WHILE TO GET PAID, BUT AT LEAST THERE ISN'T A BAD BEAT EVERY OTHER HAND.

Wow, what a difference 36 hours makes:

But please do us a favour and stop cross-posting the same thing in every Bodog thread you can find.

STOP BEING SUCH A ****ING LOSER AND GET A ****ING LIFE; WHO THE **** HAS 27,000 POSTS ON AN INTERNET FORUM, DO YOU FEEL LIKE YOU'VE ACCOMPLISHED A LOT IN LIFE???

Got AA twice today, both times busted by the same ****. AQ, rives broadway. AJ, rivers broadway. All i with AK vs A6d...Flops a ****ing diamond flush. 10-10 vs 10-9-- FLOP: 10-6-7 (FLOP A ****ING SET) TURN: K, RIVER: 8---All of this **** in like 5 hours of playing. It is ****ing criminal, and I feel sorry for anyone thinking they can beat any game on this ****ing rigged joke of a site.

Yup, you caught me. Those 14 posts/day take up all of my time so I'm not able to rack up a long lists of accomplishments like you.

Seems like you're on some major tilt and could use a little time off since you refuse to stop posting that in every thread you can find. I look forward to some good life advice when you get back tomorrow.

Plz to permaban?

Calling someone else a loser after you come on here whining about your bad beats? Nobody wants to hear your Bad Beat Stories, especially when your acting the way you are. Nobody is going to have any sympathy for you especially after your ridiculous claims.

BTW, did you ever stop to think he has so many posts because he is a Moderator of the Forum?

Bodog is a sportsbook that happens to have a poker room bolted on the side. Their poker room & casino exists so their whale sportsbook clients don't ever need to take money off the site for any reason. They want all that money to stay their long enough for Bodog to grind it off via the vig.

If you think of Bodog as a poker room it is confusing. If you think of Bodog as a sportsbook that offers poker to it's sportsbook clients it makes sense.

Pros: Field is rather soft given some % of people playing there really are sportsbook gamblers who occasionally play (lose) poker. You can always tell the person on a high after winning huge on a game. If they donk off $80 in an hour playing poker who cares they just made $5000 beating the point spread. Likewise if they donk of $80 an hour who cares they just lost $5K because of the ****ing point spread. In either instance play tends to be very action oriented, large pots, lots of hands. They are playing to have fun and you can can be the "entertainment" while scooping up mostly dead money.

Cons: Bodog #1 (and pretty much only) concern is keeping sportsbook clients happy.
Are 24 multitabling nits going to make sportsbook clients happy?
Is pro functions like auto-reload and table scanning going to make sportsbook clients happy?
Is hand histories for loading into HUD going to make sportsbook clients happy?
Is rakeback going to keep sportsbook clients happy?

Bodog hasn't significantly updated their client is years. There are bugs (like client saying you have 4 tables open when you don't) that have existed for literally years and never been fixed. As long as it is "good enough" that big sportsbook clients don't withdraw to play on another site that is good enough for Bodog.

Nothing wrong with Bodog, it is pretty easy to make money there. Everything makes much more sense when you realize Bodog is a sportsbook that happens to have a Poker room.

Very good post here and this should fully explain to those that didn't know the reason behind a lot of Bodog's decisions.

Lol da eff. Won't let me register and I'm in Missouri >.<

I signed up for betonline - the games seem very good. Does anybody know how to get a hud working there?

Neither HEM nor PT3 supports BetOnline.

Didn't I see threads on here about BetOnline being very shady and players having trouble with them?

I think you saw threads on 2p2 where BetOnline has stated they are on their own Network pubicly on Forums and in Interviews. They claim they bought the software and created a new Independent Network Called "Hero Poker Network". The fact is they are on the Action Poker Network that has had issues paying players and affiliates for over a year now and have been "blacklisted" by a lot of sites.

We have confirmed 100% that they are on the Action Poker Network by opening Action Poker and BetOnline and the tables and players are the exact same on both sites.

It seems very unusual that they would claim to be on their own NEW Network when they are in fact on the Action Poker Network. It begs the question, why would they pubicly state they are an Independent Network on Forums and in Interviews yet they are clearly not?

They don't offer RB, have a weak bonus, and the software freezes pretty regularly also. Not sure if you heard other complaints about them though.

gotta admit I lol'd

I'm going to guess it's because Action Poker doesn't allow US players so they don't want to be publicly acknowledging the site. Which isn't necessarily any better then any other reason.

If I were you all, I would just stay away from online poker right now. I mean seriously. No way in hell I am going to put any money on some last resort websites in these DOJ days and expect to have a fair poker game. YEAH RIGHT!
I think some of you have a gambling problem and should get it looked at.

You might as well flush your money down the toilet if you're gonna play on some fly by night poker sites with dodgy software and questionable software security.

Nice undercover rigtard post.

[X] Has always been a -ROI player

[X] Out to ruin the fun for everyone

out to ruin everyone's fun???? I'M TRYING TO KEEP THEM FROM LOSING MONEY!!!!

PLEASE people. Don't be an idiot by giving ANY of these fly by night poker sites a single penny of your hard earned money. It's just not worth it. You REALLY need to ask yourself this. "is it really worth depositing on some low profile site that I barely no NOTHING about, let alone barely heard the name? not to mention what they will do if the DOJ steps in, will they refund my money, or will they run off?


PLEASE BE SMART WITH YOUR MONEY. These sites could EASILY have players that can see your hole cards trying to scam as much money out of you before the DOJ cracks down on them too.

BE SMART!!!!!!!!!

No one sees your hole cards. You lose because you arent as good as your opponents. No one is responsible for your failures at poker other than you. BE SMART!!!!!!!!!! and study the game instead of blaming ghosts and goblins then maybe you will win instead of always losing. Oh yeah, in before your ridiculous posts get moved to the rigged thread where they belong instead of hijacking this valuable thread.

FYP.

Deep breaths, man, deep breaths.

Yes, players should be aware that there is a risk US-facing sites could be shut down. I'd be pretty amazed if anyone who reads this forum didn't know this already. As for the rest of your post, wild speculation about sites viewing hole cards or otherwise cheating players isn't especially helpful.

I like how you only quoted 1 of my 4 [X]'s (Out to ruin the fun for everyone) This leads me to believe the other 3 are true

1. Most everyone who puts money online to play poker knows to stay away from shotty sites and where to play, whose reputable, etc. If they don't do their research on where to play and read reviews on the rooms, well then they deserve what happens to them, since there is a ton of reviews and info on poker sites. (PokerScout, CasinoMeister, SBR, the list goes on)

2. No, It's not worth it, and you should never be putting money on shady sites when there are plenty of reputable poker sites out there that are licensed and regulated by governing bodies.

3. Stars refunded players money, Doyles Room refunded and still is, FTP is working on it. Players know the risk of playing online given the current state of online poker in the US. To a lot of players, poker isn't just a hobby, it's their job and source of income.

4. AP/UB has been indicted. Thanks for the heads up, but I think you are overreacting and really need to get your facts straight. Here is the link to the "Poker Is Rigged Debate" you may post your warnings there, possibly meet some friends too!

Poker Is "Rigged" Debate

Stars and Doyles room has waaaaaaaay more players on their sites and they have to uphold their reputation with the tons of players who still play there. And after reading some behind the scenes leakage of Full tilt's very own Phil Ivey borrowing millions and having some player on their roster making $500,000 a year (not to mention what some of the other well known sponsored players are getting). It's safe to say that is the reason Full Tilt isn't giving refunds for a looong time, IF EVER!

Now we're not talking about sites that are well known and can afford to give players back their money, we're talking about super small fly by night poker sites that are mentioned in this thread. If the DOJ hits them (and chances are they will), the fly by night site is most likely not going to be giving any refunds, because as we all know, since their sites backbone is mainly US players now, it doesn't have to worry about upholding it's reputation if it gets canned by the DOJ. It would be much more profitable for some virtually unknown (but recommended in this thread) site to take the US players money and run, because after the DOJ hits it, their site will be right back to the same crappy traffic it was at before the DOJ canned the big sites.

You people really need to think about that.

Ok great^^

Thanks bye.
