i actually dont know, i dont use any of the hotkey/auto-tile stuff, but performance/software malfunctions are a common refrain in this and other threads from people who do use them. i played a few tournaments a couple weeks ago and dont remember having any betbox issues...theyve rolled out a couple updates since then tho, so i dont really know. :shrug:

For anyone else that would like to read it, here is the article you most likely came across https://www.onlinepokerreport.com/29...-poker-update/. It's a long shot that all 4 states will be combined by this year's M.E. since PA's software won't be going live until June at the absolute earliest. Also PA isn't part of the Multi-State Gaming Association yet but it is expected that they will eventually join. The article does mention that by this time next year all 4 states could combine player pools. I'm semi-excited since I am a PA resident and gave up playing online for a living about a year ago. I definitely will dipping my toes back in once we go live here in PA.

Wait, so you're Canadian like me? Sounds like the same thing is happening then. Usd amount changes every day but the CAD amount stays the same.

yes, its just exchange rates, as a canadian player your balance is gonna be in CAD as a constant. if CAD weakens, it will be reflected by having less USD in your account, and if CAD strengthens it will be reflected by having more USD in your account

I recently saw that Ignition is allowing New York players again. Is that the same for Bovada?

Would i be correct in saying the only thing to use your poker points on is the nightly 30K qualifier in the SNG lobby for 900 points? It seems their is a reward level of chrome you can get to play in weekly $2,500 free roll, but that require playing their "casino games" with big house edge.

Even after restarting the client again the cashier won't load and throws this error "[[[> /script_esi_header_top/client]]] [[[> /script_esi_header/cliente/casino]]]" so looks like you can't deposit or withdraw anymore

Hope they are only taking away the $60 jackpots temporarily....the real solution is bring the $60s back then add $100s. If I am playing jackpots, I'm gambling and $30 just doesn't scratch the itch...

I had a bovada account from a very long time ago, just recently when ACR was down I decided to open up the bovada client and saw that they have anonymous zone poker. So I decided to deposit some money with bitcoin without knowing much about the current legal situation, since I live in Nebraska. Well I was able to successfully deposit and play on the site. I just have a couple questions about the games/site.

-Are the games good/soft? Is it better to play zone, or at a regular table.

-I read there is no rakeback/reward system? Does this make it harder to profit.

-How are the tournaments/sit and go's.

-I am not able to click my cashier/setting it seems to be disabled, but the rest of the client works fine. What could be the issue for this.

-Anything else I should know about the site? Bots, cheaters? scams?

- Yes , very soft / It is better to play high stakes regular tables

- Is this a trick question?

- SOFT

- Re-install Bovada , try Ignition to see if cashier problem persists

- Bots suck , nearly impossible to cheat , they AWLAYS pay

thanks for your reply,

My second question I meant I heard there is no reward or rakeback system in bovada. Is this true and in relation to how good the games are, is it still profitable.

they sorta go hand in hand

having no rakeback/bonus helps make the games soft since it keeps away the grinders

I remember last year there was a little bonus every two months or so. Usually just like $50 in tourney tickets or something. wasn't much but it was nice. one time we got a $100 bonus though the points requirement was pretty nuts. they don't seem to do that anymore.

The games are soft enough to beat without rake back if you are good. Also the one thing they do is whenever there is a big tournament series they will have unlockable tickets the month before hand based on the amount you rake. Those months are the most profitable times to put in long grind sessions. Their point system is no where near as lucative as those tournament ticket unlocks.

Does Ignition ever offer any poker bonus?

I've seen posts that make me think I should have just joined up on another site, but just in case....

Are there ever ANY PLO or O8 games running, at any stake? I'm running on my ipad and from what I can tell you can't actually see if any are going, so I've just tried joining at a bunch of different stakes at both regular and Zone, and have yet to find a table with anyone at all. Is it entirely dry? Am I doing something wrong?

I got a welcome bonus from Ignition. But the way that they showed the locked and withdraw-able funds are totally confusing. I forfeit one bonus before, and then got this one from nowhere.I probably need to forfeit this one as well.

Zone plo doesn’t run, but six max tables do IME, at least at 1/2 and lower
