And before some of you get butt hurt and cry out that maybe you want to use your debit card, my preemptive response is that if you want one of these offshore companies with their dodgy 3rd-party processors to have your debit card info, well my friend you are still a fish! GL wasting time dealing with "erroneous", double-charges, or str8 up fraud from a rogue processor... As far as using prepaids, does it really take much less time than wu or mg?

I have lost an absurd amount of coin flips on the bubble tonight. Is the doomswitch on or is this "variance?"

Definitely doomswitch. What is "variance"?

You played 626 DoNs ($5s and $10 together). You won 339 of them. Given each of the following true cash probabilities, the chance of you running that bad over a random stretch of a 626 (which this isn't, since it was a stretch that you chose to post about after it happened) is the following:

Cash % | Probability
60% 1 in 585
59% 1 in 127
58% 1 in 35
57% 1 in 14
56% 1 in 5

You should probably be posting in this thread, though:

5/10 should be called 10nl so that its not confused with $5/$10. Also if your playing cash you should have at least 20 buy in's at any given stake. You shouldn't use any more then 4% of your bankroll on any given MTT...and you may need to read up on sitngo strategy. Others are winning on Bovada at a decent clip.

People come on here seeking information, and when others are inclined they will give it to them. I think it's a reasonable thing to mention if the guy is planning on making further posts on his journey through 10nl. No need to call people moron when you aren't even a part of the discussion.

You are just extremely bad. I have a dougit digit ROI in the 20s and 50s over a large sample size. Do you realize that your hourly rate is only a fraction of minimum wage?

I don't think you can play from a Maryland IP address as bovada does not service Maryland .

For Canadians who play on bodog.eu what other options are there for deposit/withdraw other than checks and wire transfers. Can you use interac or western union? If so what are withdraw limits on interac and how long does it take?

DEPOSIT?

I'm sure this gets asked a lot so I will ask my fellow 2+2ers to forgive me for being lazy and not searching the thread....but....

What's the best way to deposit on Bovada?

I have an account at Bovada but I've never used it. I live in the United States....can anyone give me some quick info/tips/ useful hints, etc...

Thanks!
