I'm new to the site running 4 tables of six handed 50NLHE. I am clearing about 30 points a hour. Anyone able to give me a rough estimate on what you earn at 4 tables of 100NL and/or 200 NL six handed? Thanks in advance.

Just letting you guys know that at approximately 4am ET, cash games and Zone poker games will stop running. This stoppage is expected to last approximately 15 minutes and is due to some maintenance and restarting of servers.

****CASH GAME AND ZONE POKER DOWNTIME SCHEDULED*****
Whew. Freaked out a bit when my tables closed down

With Bovada players and the fact that any regs have to refagher reads on unknowns every session, there's no reason you cant make $15-25/hour 4 tabling 100nl.

Billion dollar 19 year old sportsbook/casino. Fast payouts. They are one of the safer bets in the US market.

Received a check from Singapore today, complete with a note telling me that the check can't be cashed, only deposited into my own bank account. This seems like a problem, seeing as though I don't have one! So I'm going to try to open an checking account with an international check from Bovada, lol. The lady on the phone tells me that int'l checks can take up to 2 weeks to clear. I wanted to tell her that that was perfectly fine as long as I can actually get the money at all.

I wonder if check cashing places will cash bovada checks. Might be worth the exorbitant fee for someone with no bank account.

I searched this thread and could not find an answer. Is there a limit to the amount of times one can exchange 200 points for $40? If so, is it just one per week?


Thanks in advance

If you're looking at that, then you might as well just withdraw via moneygram. There is a fee, but you get the $ in 72 hours, and don't need to worry about checks bouncing or anything like that

It's not an exchange. If you earn 200 points in a week, you get $40. You're not spending the points. But yes, only one $40 bonus a week, given at the end of the week (Monday).

It's not an exchange, you earn 200 points during the week and get $40, end of story.

However you can earn additional tickets into the drawing for every 50 points after reaching 200. Again, though, you aren't exchanging them.

A little research in advance of cashing out via check would have helped you.

Thanks! So, what can I redeem/exchange the points for? tourney tickets? I'm new to bovada, but it seems like one cannot use them to buy into tournies...

So I got an email with this text:

Hey Michael,

So far this week you've earned 126.90 Poker Points and reached Tier 1. You only need 23.10 more points by Sunday to increase your weekly cash bonus to $40 and earn a total of three entries to our weekly holiday draw.
"

It says I only need 150 poker points to get $40, but this link says you need 200 points to get $40....

http://poker.bovada.lv/poker-promoti...iday-gift-grab

What's the deal?

I got this same email and I was a little confused. Whatever.

^^^ get two hundred to be sure .. no way I would stop at 150 as its another $20 for 50 points. I guess you can continue if you want to increase chances in drawing but I don't really count that as a realistic opportunity. Love the free $40 ..

I received the same here. They don't double check anything they email for accuracy.

We should probably have everyone reply here who received the email. Make sure you include all of the points so that someone can verify the math as well. This is pretty important.

I'm glad I'm at the point where I don't even worry about the $40 bonus. Since I started with a $100 deposit in the middle of the year, that's saying I've run pretty good.

Play two MTT's a week bink one of them. That's how it's been going for me lately.

First, If you look at that check closely, it isn't an international check. Second, be a grown up and get a bank account.
