I'm pretty sure I'm IP locked out of my Bovada account. I had some issue with my password and some failed login attempts earlier today, ended up resetting my password and that is now fine-- and I can log in through my phone or tether my laptop to my phone and log in fine, but if I try to use my regular ISP to login, then the client won't even open. If I log in first through tethering then switch to my ISP, it won't reconnect even though I've switched before like that without issues.

Has this happened to anyone and will it go away without me having to deal with support?

Are you logging in from a banned territory? This is what happens in Australia if your ISP blacklists ignition. They periodically set up proxies to stay ahead of the game, but the web version plugs into that far better than the client.

No. I'm in the US, trying to log in from the same location where I've logged in hundreds of times without issues.

But I've ran the experiment of trying to log in tethered to my phone vs through my regular ISP at least a half dozen times now it seems like this is definitely it. I also can't imagine why my ISP would block Bovada so I assume it has to do with my failed login attempts-- but if they're going to block my account for security reasons I don't see why it wouldn't just get blocked completely.

Hmmm... the common denominator seems to be your ISP tbh. There's a possibility they may have banned Ignition's IP. A good way to test would be to try and login via the web. If the normal https://www.ignitioncasino.eu/poker (or the bovada equivalent) doesn't work, then you have your answer. My gut feel is if you had a login issue, you wouldn't be able to login via tether

Yeah it's weird. But I just got off with chatting with support--they said there was no "control" on my IPs and that it was weird-- but now somehow everything is fixed and I can login.

This company choose no screen names to make it harder for all players to win. The owners want a guessing game where its more difficult to beat the mathematical disadvantage you face because of rake.

It's also impossible to detect cheating by the site or your opponents when you can not identify which accounts are you playing against.

Botvada is absolute trash. I wouldnt recommend this pseudo poker site to anyone.

Anonymous games make it easier to win not harder in my opinion. But if you believe otherwise I'm sure you'll be real successful on those sites that show your screenname. Where the better players will track your stats and be able to exploit you as soon as you sit down. Where they don't also have sports bettors coming in and punting away their sports wins. Good luck.

Guy at my starting table #5 folded 277 straight hands from start to finish. I guess he was trying to see how long to get blinded off which took roughly 5:45.

Ha, I ended up going up and down like a yo-yo. Made it up to a 50k stack at one point, but lost most on an AK/J10 flip.

Definitely learned a lot and probably left a bit too much on the table early on. I'll be back!

I'm a min-cashing beast. I'm almost there again. I have about one more hour of Muhammad Ali rope-a-doping, then I'm punching back hard.
