Normally takes a little bit for it to hit my wallet after it's been sent but usually just a few hrs. I believe they say it can take up to 24h

Has anybody here ever won playing here? Every time I raise either nobody calls or I get reraised. I typically only call a reraise with the big four hands. Just wondering if I’m getting scammed or is there something I’m doing wrong?

It's been stated by others in this thread but Bitcoin Cash is way superior to Bitcoin if you are just using it to deposit and withdrawal. It's basically 0 fees (maybe a few cents) and is pretty much instant when depositing - when you send to the BCH address your Bonition account updates in seconds every time I've done it.

I posted on the Bonition forum yesterday about the tournament that popped up the "you are out in xth place" after I had actually won the hand and it pushed the pot to me. And it forced me to close/reboot out of the software before it let me back into the tournament (thankfully with the correct stack). I ended up getting an email from support asking me did I get a screen shot, which I didn't, but I explained what happened. I got a second email from support asking me one question...did I get a screen shot.

WTF?! They have all the internal data and are acting like, "screen shot or it didn't happen." I am prepared today. I dusted off my laptop and have my fingers hovering over the WIN+PrtScr.

I am Player0001 in the same $20+2 NLO $5 KO that just started at 1:05pm Pacific churning through my mound of points to tournament tickets to cheddar. Come at me Bros.

Oh lord, we are at the first break and I am in a deep hole. I wasn't talking bad about you Bonition. I think WPN's Phil Nagy is an ass clown.

Yeah probably going to be hard to win if you only call a reraise with JJ+

Get a chart for 3bet pots by position (UTG vs BU, CO, SB, BB, HJ), and all positions like that. Not cheap, but you will know what to call a 3bet with and what to 4bet with (hint, its not always the top four, so, yes you are getting owned).

Thanks. I’ll try that. How long do you think it will take me to memorize? You don’t have time to refer to a chart while playing

yes, you do. Several players have the charts printed out on walls or another monitor (I can see that in my coaching streams that I watch).

I have mine in excel spreadsheet, separated by position, and then actions for each position on that sheet. I also have notepad up for rfi.

I do have multi way scenarios as well (squeezes, how to react to someone 3betting someone else before it gets to you, what to call or raise with if two players enter the pot before you, etc).

Those I don't have memorized, but experience is upping the win rate there.

Murph69, another thing you can do is regularly reset your stack at the table. While you are learning, concentrate on being a great 100bb player. If you double up and have a 200bb-ish stack, then reset it to 100bb. Different stack sizes have different strategies. Become an awesome 100bb player first. But, please don't become an annoying short stacker, it will ruin your learning curve.

I have prooof this time with a screen shot.

I am Player0001 in the $22 NLO $5 KO that started at 1:05pm Pacific and it moved me to another table and as I'm getting seated at new table Player0002 got knocked out in 25th place as can be seen in the notification menu. But it pops up a "you are out in 25th place" screen to me. It won't let me use the "take my seat" button and I had to close/reboot. When I logged back in I am able to sit and thankfully my stack is correct.


Be careful if you are playing tournaments. If you are in multiple tournaments or even get distracted for a moment and just take it for granted that the "you are out in xth place" screen is accurate and you really were NOT eliminated.

A BUG THAT INCORRECTLY TELLS YOU THAT YOU ARE OUT OF A TOURNAMENT IS UNACCEPTABLE.

I'll post it later. I'm still in the tournament. DUH. I'm playing in the browser and it has the balance that I'll need to block out or I'll catch hell that it is a brag post or something.

Now I'm curious of the balance. I know you play big stakes, but why keep too much online?

50+ buy-ins isn't a crazy amount to keep online. It's all relative. It was my mistake for not playing in the poker client instead of the browser and then my balance wouldn't have been visible when I did a screen shot. I'm use to playing on my phone, but took out my never used laptop because I wanted the notification menu visible. I didn't have Bonition poker client downloaded so I played in the browser. No big deal.

The issue is a tournament bug eliminating players from tournaments that they are still in.

I've trusted Bodog for 15+ years, but you're still pushing it with too much for no reason. Don't you single table?

I don't trust WPN's CEO Phil Nagy. He reminds me of the Mt. GOX CEO that had everyone's Bitcoin stolen because he was a mouth breathing moron.

I played the no rathole tables when they were on ACR, TP and BCP. And I rotated my stack to not exactly truly no rat hole, which might have been part of the reason the no rat hole is only on ACR now. Also they want ACR to be the flagship. When the no rat hole ended up only on ACR, I quit WPN.

And yes on Bonition I one table. But as I often mention I play long sessions to get extremely deep. What exact is a buy-in? My initial 100bb buy-in or the extremely deep amount I have on the table 8 hours later? I'm going to mention numbers only because it is something that you can see in a ChicagoJoey video. He use to often play long sessions and attempt a 10x. There are videos of him starting at $500 and going for $5,000 (not all on one buy-in necessarily) . Well I start at $2,000 and go for...

See, see, see there is a brutal tournament bug eliminating players from tournaments that they are actually still in, but we are instead talking about my on site bankroll. D'OH!

We just started the final table of the $22 NLO $5 KO that is a great choice for anyone looking to convert tournament tickets to money. I might be here awhile. It could be a couple hours before I get a chance to post screen shots of the bug incorrectly eliminating tournament players. I need food.

I'll post something on the bovada boards if you give me something to copy/paste "that my friend happened to them".


Ultimately **** this software, but still somehow very worth it.

Thanks.

The tournament incorrect elimination bug that happened to me yesterday was on Bovada. I was a Player0006 and got incorrectly eliminated when I simultaneously eliminated Player0010 and Player0053. And I had to close/reboot software to get back in. I'll write up in full later about yesterday and today. Today I am playing on Ignition.

I couldn't log into the Bovada forum for whatever reason so I posted it yesterday on the Ignition forum

I'm heads up for the title in tournament right now.

Victory !!!

Victory is ours. SimpleRick won the Milly. Carl Trooper final tabled the Milly. I just won a $22 No Limit Omaha $5 Knockout Bounty. I want entry into the 2+2 MTT Legends Club.

As I've been harping about, if you have non-holdem skills and are looking to convert points to tournament tickets to money, then there are tournaments, like knockout tournaments, that you can get money along the way by knocking people out. And you don't even have to make the normal In The Money phase, but I showed that is possible too. I bought into the $22 tournament with points. I knocked out 3 players, for $15 total, which is low for me. But I made up for it by winning the tournament for another $244.01

Ok now for the more important stuff. The last two days I got incorrectly eliminated from the tournament with the "you have finished in xth place" pop up. It would not let me use the "take my seat" button. I had to close/reboot the software to get back in and be seated with my stack.

Be careful if you are playing tournaments right now. If you have any sinking suspicion that you actually won the hand that it is telling you that you lost (and even the notification menu will tell you that you lost), then you need to reboot the software and then try and re-take your seat.

I need food and time to gather all the screen shots I took of the incorrect elimination tournament bug.
