Bovada only lets you play four tables, the majority of grinders that play on Bovada also play on another site or sites.

So yesterday you just replace your four Bovada tables with four tables from your other site. Not a big deal.

Btw, the economy is pretty ****ty everywhere. Its easy to say why bother with poker when you can easily make that money getting a day job. Not everyone can get a day job that pays as much for 1/100th of the work. Life for a lot of folks is a hustle. You do what you can do to make a few bucks and despite its problems, smoking cigarettes and sipping an iced tea while you click a button on ****ty US sites for $30 an hour beats the hell out of digging a ditch 8 hours a day for $10 an hour.

Having said that I understand your point, grinding US poker in 2013 isnt ideal and isnt for everyone.

Also, not everyone is a grinder. Some people just want to come home from work and play a table or two of poker for fun. Bovada is perfectly fine for that.

Anyone know the answer to this question:

I just found out today about the current $50/week promotion assuming you earn 200 points/week. Will I still get the credit for points earned since the 22nd, even though I enrolled in the promotion only today?

How do you enroll in this promotion? Or is it just for new accounts

Yes. Same situation, and it gave the $50 to me based on the play I had before I entered the promo.

Yeah, I'm in this camp. If Bovada is screwing off, I just go do something else. I'd be a good bit more concerned if I needed to play to make money which is really where my line of questioning was coming from.

Anyway, thanks for engaging in the conversation. I think I'm out of questions.

No anyone can enroll, just find the page on the website and there will be a button click it and you're enrolled.
