seems like the low-mid stake PLO games aren't really running today but its hard to tell. I wish Bovada would show full tables

Well it is way off peak hours for the countries that can access the site, so I would imagine that there aren't many plo games running at those stakes at the moment.

Yeah I noticed this a lot. Had one guy sit me out after...wait for it...3 full hands at either 100nl or 200nl. I said "really dude?" and he just replied with "bumhunter"...at least he's honest.

Is heads up cash really just that dead? Any merit to battling the regs sitting the higher stakes lobbies to take over their tables for the day you think?

something similar here. i want to play 50nl 6 max. no tables listed.
Yeah, I wanted to do similar. I imagine some maintenance stuff. It'd surprise me if they aren't up and running later today.

Oh wow same problem. Was trying to find some 0.02/0.05 tables and there's been like 0-1 listed for the longest time...

Why don't they allow people to see full tables? I was assuming all the tables were somehow full but there isn't any goddamn way to check, I feel like in this day and age there should be...

EDIT Also it is very annoying that they don't let you refresh the listings yourself, instead you have to wait like a minute or more. Kinda ****in silly

wtf is going on ? 0 tables from 50nl to 200nl showing up for me, and can't find any empty ones either

Any word? There are hardly any games running, and there aren't any empty tables either, which I have never seen before. I kept checking and unchecking the hide empty tables button, but nothing happens

oh wait there is a 100nl table with 8/9 nope never mind missed a seat back to 0 tables from 50nl to 200nl

If you click zone, then click back to cash it refreshes it and you dont have to wait a minute, still kind of annoying but whatever I make millions of clicks a day whats a couple more?

This had happened before. Just a glitch on their end. As far as I can remember they usually got it fixed within 2-3 hours. This time it seems to be taking longer. The lobby was already messed up when I stopped playing ~12 hours ago.

There's definitely something weird going on with the lobby.

I finally saw an empty 3/6 table pop up for me, and a 5/10, but nothing below that(when i say empty i mean 0/6 people at it), and occasionally a few tables pop up with 1 empty seat, but seems like there is some kind of problem right now with not being able to start new tables and I'm guessing that is why there are so few tables with seats available right now. But at least the tables that are still there seem to be running fine.

So I had a friend who apparently has no VISA cards to deposit to bovada, and I guess he bought a VISA prepaid card from a store and it also wouldn't deposit properly and couldn't work it out with bovada support. I managed to use my VISA debit card when I deposited several months ago with no issue.

My friend asked me if I could use my card to deposit on his account (he would pay me back on paypal) so he could get started, but I was afraid that Bovada would see that it's the same card info as my account, think I'm multi-accounting and close me down. Does anyone know if that would actually happen? Alternatively, is there a specific widely available prepaid VISA card that is known to work?

ya def don't do that - you will get snap shut down. tell him to get the myvanilla debit card, good for international use.

With all the ring game lobby issues how is there no zone PLO running? If this doesn't get it to take off, they might as well take it off the list.

What!?! Zone is working fine? That sounds fun, I'll try that.

As far as I know, the vanilla card doesn't work. Visa NetSpend does, and that is what they recommend over the phone. You can get one most places, I got mine at a gas station across the street.

Thank you for this tip that will be very helpful. Bovada really should implement a refresher every second or a clear button for it.

And a way to see full tables. Sheesh.

What's the lowest limit for Anonymous NLHE Bovada offers? Is it available in 9 person games?

With Anonymous poker, it says all hole cards are revealed 24 hrs. Later, can theses hand histories with everyone's hole card viewable in graphic format (like real player) or just in text format.

Thanks!

5nl. $5 buyin, blinds 2c/5c.

These hand histories can be viewed in graphic format. You have to download them and then convert them using the Bovada Hand Converter from Ace Poker Solutions. They can then be imported into tracking software, such as HM2 or PT4, where you can view them graphically.
