Seems like 50 should cover all of them:

Poker Point Objectives:

All Poker Point objectives are cumulative. If a player earns 30 Poker Points they have met the 10, 20 and 30 Poker Point objectives.

Anyone get paid for the bingo bonus thing yet? I'm pretty sure I completed everything almost 2 days ago now. Starting to wonder if I missed something? Or maybe I'll get it at the end of the week?

Is the 150$ MT fee going to be the standard for the future? I know it was implemented a while ago (was it ever explained why?) Is it that MT started charging 2% no matter what and Bovada no longer/won't cover it?

It would be great if you could at least convert points or something to cover the fee...

I cant tell u how many times I get disconnected from bovada. It is not my fault either. I still have internet connection when I get disconnected. As a heads up player, this interferes and it it forces me to have to quit in the middle of a match too often being that you cannot reconnect and continue at the same table. I even force close the application and immediately reopen it and the table pops up and is black saying that it is disconnected.
It really that bovada feels no need to correct this issue to please the customers that has been going on ever since they implemented the 5 minute rule which is close to a year. They have no official thread and are absolutely resilient to correcting this issue and compensating the players in such circumstances. In other words, they do nothing to please it customers and yet still have players playing poker and giving them money non stop. Its bad enough that their server disonnect you but to not even give you the opportunity to shut it down and reopen to continue at where you left off is crap and i hope the people in charge there get murdered.

If anybody has had any luck with prepaid Visa deposits recently, I would appreciate a PM (don't say the card name in thread). Thanks

I used to have issues with this all the time, and I actually had a problem with it today. What I typically do to get it unstuck is just type something in the chat and hit enter. Just one character or something.

I'd like to deposit. I've tried various credit cards, visa gift card, visa prepaid card, etc and have gotten no luck. How do I use the western union option?...it's not listed under my deposit methods.

I just completed the Blackjack portion of the bingo bonus.

I finally got dealt a blackjack on the 46th hand. Played standard blackjack with no double downs and no splits even though there were some obvious double down opportunities.

Played one hand after my blackjack. On the 47th hand the dealer had his 3rd blackjack.

Quit up $7.50. Not bad, but I won't be returning anytime soon.
Hopefully they leave it off of next weeks bingo card.

You realize you're burning money by playing this way, right?

I'm guessing he didn't care because he was just trying to get to the bonus as fast as possible and not increasing his variance was worth losing some EV.

Yes. Absolutely.

I was trying to get in and out risking the least amount of money possible while getting one blackjack.

However every time I just hit a 10 or an 11 instead of doubling while I was up against a 4,5, or 6 I got a 3 or a 4 and the dealer did his thing. So nitting it up saved me a couple of bucks actually

I understand basic blackjack strategy but I avoid playing internet blackjack at all costs.

I got my blackjack to clear the bonus and won a few bucks. I'm done.

But yes, I know what you are saying.

what is the point of having 'disconnection protection' when it kicks you off the table and forbids you from rejoining for 5 minutes every single time you disconnect? seriously this is absolutely ridiculous. i get disconnected for 30 seconds and it boots me off every table and doesn't allow me to rejoin. how is this not being addressed or fixed? it's a new bug with the new software...

Just a tip, if you are making a credit card deposit, it usually works better monday thru thursday for some reason. Credit card security is ramped up on the weekends and you will get declined more often.

anyone else believe there's bots that play the cash NL hu tables? Or is that standard knowledge and I'm just late to realizing it since I've been out of touch with online for a while?

Since you cant look up their play history, only thing you can do is report it to support and hope they do thorough job investigating.

We have all be reassured that security is on top of everything and they do not need help of players to police games so there is nothing to see here.

However I would say that if Bovada did indeed know about bots being run by players (not saying they would), I would think it would be in their best interest to stop them. We all know Bovada has a heavy hand when it comes to manipulating their poker economy. Winning players piss them off enough, doubt they would let bots suck out profit unless they owned them.

Confirmed. In fact, it works so well that I just typed "the only site on the internet that isn't rigged is Bovada" and I immediately got a walk on the BB.

Can you answer a question honestly for me? Why is it that the entire rigtard population writes like they're stuck on 3rd grade grammar?
