How do the games on here compare to Bovada?

Less traffic, bot-reg-fish ratio is worse, bots are a huge issue, lots of bumhunting, obvious sng collusion, more hud use and no 4 table cap. The only things it has over Bonition in my personal opinion are much less software issues, no quick seat nonsense and the games aren't anonymous. I prefer this type of poker, but the bot issue could eventually lead me to take most of my action elsewhere.

For me , the difference are just the software. both are pretty good poker sites to play in.
IMO, BOL because of its tourney and Ignition for the cash games

Interesting. For me it's the opposite. I much prefer Chico's cash games and Bonition's sngs/mtts. What specifically do you like more about Chico's tournaments? Rebuys and addons?

With bol mtt's u don't have to wait 3-5 hours b4 late reg is over...

lol and you say I get triggered easily.

I'm sure it was already covered somewhere in this thread, but since I don't want to spend all day looking for it..

I just started with Betonline.ag..could I contact Betonline customer support, and tell them I want to be excluded from sports betting and the casino, and I only want to be allowed to play poker?

I've done this years ago with Bovada, and it was no problem.

Would that be a request they can easily do, or would they not be able to do that, or ban me from the entire site?

I don't want to raise any red flags..I just don't want the temptation to donk off poker winnings in the sportsbook or casino.

Do you think this is a simple request? Has anyone here requested same?

Thanks for any info..

i agree with this.

Cash games are much closer to Bovada than ACR in terms of difficulty?

Site down for anyone else? I can't connect.

Just played last night, no issues.

I can not recall this subject being talked about in this thread. It definitely hasn't been mentioned recently such as within the past year.

It's probably right in the middle at peak traffic times, but I am not a fan of anonymous cash games, small sample sizes, constant hit and runs(ratholing) and short table sessions that occur on the Bovada cash tables.

You can request to be banned from the casino and they'll make it inaccessible. You need to be able to access the sportsbook to make withdrawals and deposits so I'm not sure if it can be blocked. Contact their customer support chat and they'll let you know.

I have played a ton here, and have been playing a ton on Bovada in the past month.

Bovada is soft, but you have to deal with some crazy players at times, meaning they are fish which is great, but people love to shove there.. so your dealing with more coin flips. Also to me similar to Global the run outs seem to favor action. BOL run outs seem a little more realistic.

As for Rake, like most sites, not great, BOL has higher rake (5.56% compared to BOV 5%), but at some levels the Cap is lower.. You can find this information from Professionalrakeback.

Anonymous tables can be good and bad. One if you are using a HUD your sample size is really small.. but on the other hand, the opp have the same issue with you. You really dont need a HUD on Ignition to be honest.

I think if your looking for a closer look at real poker at the micro stakes, then BOL is the best place.. but if your looking to go to the circus and experiance Variance at its fullest.. than Ignition is the place. You can make more money quicker.. but also lose it just as quick.. Oh one other thing about Ignition, is they have ZONE which is the equivilant of ZOOM on Poker Stars..

Oh yea, BOL is bot infested... HAH.. Yea so basically both have good things and bad things.. choose your poison. I wish I lived near a casino lol.

if i have a rollover requirement on my main page does that mean i have to meet it before attempting a withdrawal? If so, am i able to fulfill the requirement via poker or sportsbook only?

boost poker just got added today. I wonder how it's going to affect traffic

just made a betonline account to check out boost poker. everytime I try to log into the poker client it says my info is incorrect, even when its totally fine. Logged in/out of the website fine +uninstalled/reinstalled and I still cant get into poker.

Anyone have a fix for this? tried googling but couldnt find anything

Starting off the new year the right way.

With bad decisions.

Anyone else find withdrawing funds to be a PITA? Submitted a request two days ago. I received an email asking if I actually was requesting a payout. I replied at lunchtime. Looked when I got home and had no reply. Checked my account and my request was cancelled. Put in a new request. Get the same email as yesterday from a different rep asking if I actually requested a payout and request was cancelled again. About a half hour later I get a reply to my email from yesterday saying ok request a new payout. I get a reply at 10:30 payout will be added to the queue. Talked to support this afternoon this afternoon and they tell me that my request will likely be approved tomorrow and I should receive my funds within 48 hours after approval.

Did you make the first request from an IP address different than your normal one? Doesn't surprise me if its just a safety measure.

No same computer and IP.

What type of payment did you request? LOL I can see some sites having trouble taking deposits of BTC at $20k a coin and then see it drop 50% in the same week.. hahah

theyre probably trying to hold out waiting for BTC price to go back up so they dont have to spend so many BTCs at lower prices.

I had to do so much garbage to get a wire from them (tigergaming) and the emails they sent me were so vague. Im actually still waiting on it. Takes 15-21 business days after it gets approved according to them. I was approved December 5, 2017. Still waiting on it. Should be showing up sometime this week but I am pretty skeptical tbh. I will keep you guys posted.

Wow, did BOL actually do something about some of the colluders in SNG? PanPolyak, Tireur, veryGOOD, Johnny77...all of these accounts were in the top 10 in the silver board yesterday and I see none of them right now.

They pretty much stayed away from 6max and camped one-ups as far as I know until this week and it looks like they were taken off the leaderboards. Interesting.

Nevermind. I was wrong they are still playing they must have just gotten passed by everyone on leaderboard. Beware regging highstakes 6max sng's guys.

Ok so when you get a new cell phone at Verizon, AT&T, etc. YOU READ EVERY T&C before you sign the payment plan? Generally dozens of pages of fine print that is usually only really understood by a lawyer?

Give me a break.
