I’m not sure this is correct because they allow you to run it 3 times at regular PLO 6 handed

I see what you mean by the number of cards but 6 handed PLO5 would be 30 cards dealt and 3 boards is only 15 cards….so 45 total which is plenty

6 card PLO and to a lesser extent 5 card PLO are pretty big rake traps, hope they don't take over the 4 card action.

They added more stakes for PLO5.
.05/.10
.10/.25
.25/.50
.50/1
1/2
2/5
5/10

Hi, I'm new at Bol.ag and I don't see any Texas Holdem Limit table, only NL. Any idea why ?

The PLO5 is still not included in the PLO race. How can they possibly add a new game and not add it to the race/promotion. I guess they don’t want anyone playing new games they add. This isn’t rocket science

Hey Tiger,

Happy New Year.

I was told by the poker team that because this is a new game variant it needs to go through an evaluation period but it will be added shortly. I will raise the question again to see if its happening over the next few days here.

Will keep you all posted.

Regards,
Chris

Spoiler:
• Both hole cards must be included in the Bad beat hand, as well as in the winning hand. If the winning or losing player has made a four-of-a-kind, that player must have a pocket pair to qualify.

@BetOnline Chris

There is a table @nl50 fullring that has T77r board shown, and it never continues the hand (and new tables cant be started), yet u can sit down there (but cant play because of this bug).

Must be a bug, and the games never start unless everyone fillup this table first and start fresh table.

Can u resolve this, been line that for few days (lol) now?

Curious what others think about this.
When a game is breaking, is it only considered bad etiquette to sit out after the button before big blind heads up and fine sitting out before the big blind when the last hand is multi-handed?
They both screw over the reg who just joins the table after the fish left most of the time.
Is the difference in attitude just that it's impossible to get everyone to play an orbit and easier heads up?

Hey Lance,

This was a strange one, we reported it earlier this week and it got fixed.

As always, thank you for sending your reports!

Chris

Hey Matio,

Looking at the promotion terms it states that both hole cards must be used:



In this hand only the Ace was used.

Chris

Yeah, pretty much. Ideally everybody would play an equal amount from each position no matter the table size, but it's too difficult to organize that.

Got it. Thanks.

Just created an account

I understand in order to fund it, I need to move crypto from an exchange to wallet and then to BOL, otherwise I could get in some trouble with exchange.

Any other best practices to consider?

I never used a wallet for online poker, always my Binance account and no trouble so far in 2 years. Idk if the rules/laws vary in different juridictions(I don't reside in the US) but now that Betonline offers BNB transactions, the fees became close to zero for me

Yeah.

The issue is, for Americans anyway, is the UIGEA. It sanctions banks and businesses the enable circumvention. Those businesses will close accounts and same sleazy ones will seize funds.

Is it guaranteed to happen, no. I'd not take the chance though. Use a non kyc wallet between exchange and poker/gambling sites, the quick simple step provides a great layer of protection.

what time was the bad beat hit? Pretty sure I was on a bb table at the time, but did not get funded
01-22-2023 , 04:57 AM
Played 5/10 nl & PLO on here probably the past month a decent bit to give it another chance. As far as PLO you can get tables and it's ok, but NL is much different. There was 12 tables of 5/10 going today but it was impossible to ever get a seat until it was 5 regs and game was breaking, every table INSTANTLY fills with the same euro pros if a fish joins (scripting? not sure tbh) and if the fish does leave they all type "r" in chat probably to remake table & at worst are all READY to join the new table when it spawns. Best case scenario it's just a group of euros who run the tables and alert eachother when a spot joins or worst case scenario they are working together in a more extreme way than this. Either way, gives very sketchy vibes and I guess you will have to REALLY trust the security team to assume there is 0 shady business going on.
01-22-2023 , 06:50 AM
Other than what I suspect are players still using seating scripts, there's nothing to be concerned about. The Chico security team is very solid! I used to regularly report the seating script users, but the anonymous lobby has made it very difficult to confidently and consistently identify them so that I can report them.

Nobody is alerting other regs if there's a rec at the table via the chat box, I can assure you.

Yes, you are going to have to battle some regs to sit at the highest stakes, but that's how it works in all non-private online poker rooms. You can't just expect to swoop in and get a seat next to recreational players all of the time.
01-22-2023 , 07:07 PM
I meant on skype/discord. And it seems this group rarely ever battles but just types "r" and quits the table every time.
01-22-2023 , 08:04 PM
I still get my blind auto-posted out of position when joining a game. It happens when I already have the table open, and am on the waitlist for the table. When a seat opens, my blind gets auto-posted, even though I have that turned off in the settings.

Not sure there's much any site can do to stop people from talking to each other on other apps. If there was obvious card sharing collusion though then I'm sure other regs would be mentioning it.

I've been playing here for years. There is definitely some reg battling, I've done my fair share, but the majority of regs won't reg battle, so if there isn't a rec present then most of them will join the table and leave shortly after. Most of the tables will disperse if there is more than one table with open seats and only regs playing at them. Even the regs who do occasionally reg battle typically don't desire to battle regs on multiple tables.

There has been multiple posts here saying this since they told Chris it was fixed. I'm not sure why they told him that.
