Thoughts?
Yeah, here's a friggin' thought. You're an idiot. Why don't you go return that case with $1,000,000 in unmarked bills you found in the alley too while you're at it. Some people just piss on fortune.

I received an account credit from Bovada because of collision in a SNG I played in. The last few weeks I've thought I noticed a few inexplicable plays, but chalked it up to LOL Bovada. Looks like I really need to start monitoring things myself a lot more closely, as I doubt these people only cheated in the one game I got credit for. It would be really easy for Bovada to catch them after a few weeks of cheating, return one buy in to players and pocket the rest, making it look like they are on top of things, but taking a huge cut.

I remember someone saying you can go back and look at every hand history in a SNG with hole cards revealed? How do I do that exactly? Whenever I try to look up old games I just get the betting action but no cards revealed?

Thanks.

GREEAR,

Do you use the ace poker converter? If so, you need HEM version .8079 or earlier or the latest PT. In the converter settings there is an option for enabling known holecards.

Or you can read through the HHs but that is a real chore.


Tropics,

You are a scumbag.

Never played SnG's but wouldn't it just be like cash games? Account-> hand histories->game transactions->download hand histories->shutdown / re-open Bovada -> then go back there, and open them

I dont find him to be an idiot because he doesnt want to exploit a flaw in the software to take advantage of an opponent.

I do find the idea that you would call him an idiot for doing the right thing pretty ****ty and shallow though fwiw.

Apparently to you (and a few others) Money >>>> integrity

Some of us love the game of poker, and we get our enjoyment from beating the games fair and square. I wouldn't want an undeserved edge. I like knowing when I go on vacation to Aruba with my winnings that I deserved it because I studied hard, played a lot of volume, and out thought my opponents. Not because I found some flaw in the software. But to each his own I guess.

And I also love the no wait list. The things that most people complain about (no wait lists, no names, no long term HUD) are the exact reasons why I like playing here. Like the other poster said, if you want that kind of stuff then there are plenty of sites that have those features. But those sites suck, probably because they have those features.

Also, I know your analogy was a joke and supposed to be extreme but I'm not 100% sure I would take that case either. Usually people come looking for their bags of millions in unmarked cash and when they find the person who took it they probably aren't very nice to them, not to mention the possible prison term. Just because you found money in a bag doesn't mean you can legally keep it.

I have recently stopped playing 3 handed cash games because of this. I like starting tables but recently when I have tried to start 200NL tables I will get immediately sandwiched (one guy sits directly to my right, one directly to my left) - and then when the table fills completely both of them leave. So I'll stop starting tables until this stops happening. It's possible nothing is wrong and I am just paranoid, but I don't like when 2 people sit at the same time, leave at the same time, and play every pot 3 handed with me.

I got the email stating the referral bonus has now been doubled to where you now get 200% instead of 100% of your friends deposit. However, I'm confused by the "up to $100."

Do they mean that they will double the amount of your friends deposit "up to $100?"

Example: Friend deposits $100, I get $200

Or they will double the bonus I receive for the referral "up to $100?"

Example: Friend deposits $50, I get $100. Or friend deposits $100 and I still just get $100.

In the 2nd scenario, I get $100 whether my friend deposits $50 or $500 because I'm capped at $100.

He might have went a bit overboard, maybe, but whatever you do for a living, it should be done honestly. If you're happy doing something unethical or whatever for a living, that's you. Admittedly, a lot of people playing poker for scraps on the weekends can probably justify such things easier than pros, but if you want to be a professional poker player that wins only due to some correctable error on the sites part, I guess that's just the difference between us.

eh, in my opinion, i doubt most people, and especially at micros, even know how to cheat effectively.

Also, the only reason i doing like starting tables is because you end up with a bunch of short stackers buying in for min. Absolutely annoying.

But even if you couldn't the IRS would want their cut.

Has poker made you lose purity and honest principles or you just never had them? Very scummy comment sir

Or capes, no capes too.
I think maybe they just want a way to sign up in a queue to join the next available table instead of watching the lobby. Can't really bum hunt that way. Just sign up and have the software seat you in the next available seat. I'd be ok with that.

I'll give up the cape if I can still wear my mask and tights.

Friend deposits $50, you get $100.

Friend deposits $10,000, you get $100.

Almost positive now after reading about all these ddos attacks i was a victim in a 3/6 PLO 6max game(biggest game running at the time). It happened twice and i left the table called support and got zero help. Both times i was involved with same villain and our hand reached the river which he min bet than i disconnected and lost the pot. CS said there is no evidence that the disconnection was an issue on their end so i am responsible for my own connection at that point. Cool.......

Disconnecting all day!! I was on two stud8 tables and a nl table when they went down one by one. One of the stud8 tables broke completely, the other lost like 4 players.
