Between slim and none and closer to the latter.

PT4 or HM2. I use HM2. You need the Bovada Hand Converter from Ace Poker Solutions to download hand histories to either program.

Meh -- watched a guy win an mtt by playing 70% of his hands, going to showdown more than 66%, and winning 75% of the showdowns. I watched for over 200 hands.

It's not impossible to run that hot, but it sure would be nice to see complete HH with hole cards and player IDs 24 hours later. Just so the community could be a watchdog.

Just like any other network - each skin is on the same network, and shares the same player pool.

Not in Canada (thanks UIGEA ); not sure about in China for Bodog888 players.

Last edited by Bobo Fett; 05-29-2015 at 03:55 PM. Reason: Don't think it was really important to my answer, but changed Asia to China as per MX210's post so as to avoid any confusion.

It's not really Asia, only china.

Bodog does not accept account registration and processing of bets or other financial transactions with individuals residing in the United States of America, Hong Kong, Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam and the Philippines. For customer to be allowed to play Poker, they must be citizens of non-restricted territories of China.

I've seen this on Bovada a few times, and although a statistical outlier it's probably just sun-run and coincidence.

My point is we've been burned before and it would be nice for the online poker community to have a way to be a watchdog.

The best solution seems to be HHs available 24-48 hours later with all hole cards and ID number for every player.

I played online for a living pre shutdown and just after shutdown- quit playing but trying to dabble again.

All I know is of all the online players I have known over the years, zero of them play bovada or beat bovada (either or) and I have on LIVE pro friend who has made money on bov, but he doesn't play properly - he deposits 500$ bullets and runs it up to 5-20k in a day or two then cashes all out. He doesn't leave 50-100 buyins in the account and play long term, he just rides heaters...

I am convinced bovada is goofed, I am a lifetime winner on every site I have ever played outside of bovada- which I am slightly down I believe. Though I did finally get top two in a couple mtts on bovada after 200 plus mtts of misery (which both came in the same day and both FTs at the same time)

Please tell me where I can find proof that good players are playing with BRM and beating bovada for a healthy ROI/BB100 so I can continue with confidence, or so I can yank my money out and hope they rot in hell for allowing all the crazy fish to hang on to their money (jesus the players are so bad there, it shouldn't be a struggle to make a living- when super fish played on other sites we **** took their money, they didn't just put it in every hand and find a win- some of the plo ring games I have played have been off the wall fishy)

end rant- hope to get some good info
I've played since October before last and it took me forever to build up $2k to like a playable roll playing at NL400+ (I think I deposited 5 times) but once I finally did it stuck pretty well and I'm up like 160k since last January at an average of 5 bb/100. I also got AJackson to review my DB and got some coaching and I've been winning around 10 bb/100 since then, some of that is prob variance but I think overall I'm probably winning at at least 7 bb/100 now if I had to guess. This is mostly at 10/20 now with some NL400-1000 here and there.

There are none unless they email you a specific promotion. I have never gotten one.

Cash player looking to spend points on a tournament ticket....

Question: Is there any easy way to estimate the total length of time of a Bovada MTT? Obviously structure / starting stacks impact, but just wondering if anyone has an easy way to estimate.. thanks

Heads up hypers would be a disaster. With regular turbo's, you can get all the volume you want at any level up to $100's and maintain win rates at 55-57% to be able to earn, even with 4.76% rake and no rakeback. You add hypers with high rake and no rakeback, and you'll siphon away from the turbo's pool for a high variance grind with an almost impossible task of making anything worthwhile.

They added $20 4 player all-in HU sit and go's where you start with 1 chip, so its all in the first hand, and kept the rake at 4.76%.

It's so ridiculous, but I can't blame them for offering such a ridiculous profit especially if they run occasionally.

Trying to use a net spend card to reload. Card is still good, and I've used it in the past on Bovada, but haven't reload for quite a while. Anyone still using net spend to successfully reload.

Hey,

Every time I double-click to sit on a zone table, the cashier pops out in front of the buy in window which doesn't allow me to join. Any solutions?

What's up guys I am a new forum member but I have been lurking them for awhile now. Figured I'd join and just go out of school and decided to make a run at some poker again.

I threw $20 in my bank roll in the beginning of the week and taking a ride on the roller coaster. Grinding the .05 - .10 games for now and currently got my BR to $60.

Wish me luck, see ya guys around.

can anyone confirm if there are less micro-low level tourneys 3-10$. I used the play the $5 a lot because they ran all the time but when I check now and then I don't see them running. Maybe I'm just checking at the worst times but I haven't played in a while and wondering if they got moved to $10+
