[Bodog/Bovada/Ignition] Unofficial Thread - Page 754 - Online Poker Sites -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Currently using Windows XP (work computer, not my choice; can't update the certificates like Bovada suggests, admin has it blocked on my computer, but I'm pretty sure they're up to date).

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

How is Bovada supposed to help if you admit that your computer is locked down? If you're trying to use a work computer that may have certain sites or functions locked down, that's not Bovada's fault. Buy your own computer.

Did anybody notice anything weird on the table Blaze last night (around 2 AM Pacific Time) at 50NL? There was this guy with about a 10BI stack who would call $15 raises pre, etc, and would 3-bet every other hand. At least 6 times, another player at the table and literally stacked off no pair, no draw against the aforementioned player, and then immediately reloaded, and it seemed pretty suspicious. I will have the hand histories in about half a day. Is there anywhere I can post the hands to see if anyone else finds them suspicious as well? Or did anybody actually play in that game?

Blah.. Another run bad Sunday. Had a reg massively overplay 99 on 678r vs a cbet and a check raise 3 way.

Hope everyone's Sundays are going well!

hi, i just started playing on Bovada. I was wondering if there was any specific reason why they don't have an auto top up feature. its pretty tedious to have to do in manually.

Because they want to make it as big of a pain in the ass for regs as possible. And yes, that is literally the answer.

Is there an option to check your session stats? Hands played, time played....etc.

wow that seems pretty sad. the whole four table limit plus the fact that the site is anon seems to be anti reg enough. not having auto top up just seems unnecessary.

so whats your strategy while playing? do you usually manually buy more chips every single time your stack drops below 100BB or do you just do it if your stack drops below 90BB or something.

I'd appreciate help anyone could give me regarding some questions I have.

1. At peak time/other times, how many FULL RING cash games run at 50NL? 100NL? (and above?)

2. Does the Zone run at 50NL for full ring? 100NL? (I would guess not.)

(I'm trying to see if there is enough liquidity for a good player to average, say, $50/hour.)

3. How long do cash outs take on average? Is there a cash limit?

Cheers.

2. Only 6 max seems to run. And there's a 4 table limit for all cash tables, so there's no way you could even come close to $50/hr at 50/100 NL.

3. Cashouts take on average 3-5 business days lately, with the worst being 7-10. Check out the withdrawal thread in this forum. Checks come in increments of 3k and from the looks of it you can get around 9k off the site per month from checks based on cashout times.

I think I ended up losing 3 buy-ins or so. Got in 10-10 vs your AQs and called you down on a KKJxx board when you had a K and I had a J, haha. :P

What games do you normally play?

does anybody use any type of PT4 or similar software when playing on bovada, ive never used a hud before, but i was thinking about dabbling. any help would be great!

Edited: So after doing a little more research, i realized that I can DL the HHs and use the Bovada HH converter and plug them into PT4 or HM2. If anyone is doing this, can you let me know if this is my best bet. Thanks.

What would cause my computer to suddenly reject their new update?

My fault? Bovada's?

Seems to me like the variable that changed is on their end.

Anyone else with this error message on Windows (especially XP)?

I mean, I guess since I'm in a good mood (a few deep in local craft beer) I'll tell you.

Its pretty obvious though.

A "new to me" bug is going on now, I just got disconnected from one table, then a few moments later disconnected from a second table. My other 2 tables remained online.
