View Full Version : Bodog Room Review Anyone??


11-08-2005, 04:15 PM
Hey everyone. I have heard some good things about Bodog lately and was considering checking it out. Just a couple questions for any of you who have played there,

Is the traffic still really low or have their marketing campaigns brought in a lot of players?
Is the site still as fishy as I hear?

Thanks a lot guys

Hi
I'm new to Bodog but here's how I see it so far. Great selection of No limit, including 2-4 to 3-6. All no limit games are juicy up to 3-6. ( I haven't played 5-10, but they have a good selection of those nl games as well ). Also, juicy PL omaha hi. These are the games I mostly play. The limit games don't seem to have as good a selection.
The software is neat, clean and very fast. The customer support is immediate (at least when I had 1 problem). The sights that advertise here at 2plus2 offer rb for bodog. Overall, I play it second often to party. Hope this helps.

there's no rakeback on bodog. just CPA/swag deals for signups.

I don't know what cpa/swag deals mean. I'm just a player who puts in alot of time. I was trying to be helpul. Everything I said was accurate.

If you consider saying that bodog has rakeback when like the previous poster pointed out it does not to be accurate well then...
Play at bodog is loose-agressive.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I signed up today and am trying it out. seems to be full of loose players. Having a good experience and doing pretty good

I ended up reading reviews on the site and saw that most players that wrote a review accused the site of being rigged, which is good cus that means they got sucked out on a lot.... aka loose fish!!! /images/graemlins/laugh.gif

I copied and pasted this message from the sight I use that advertises right here on 2plus2.

25% BoDog Rakeback: 25% rakeback at a new up and coming site. Alot of people love this site because, it has literally the worse poker players on the net. This is a HUGE sports book site, and these guys barely know how to play poker. The bonus's are great, but they charge players 100% against the rakeback for a bonus.. 100$ bonus = -100$ into the rakeback. We are the ONLY SITE THAT IS OFFERING BODOG RAKEBACK
here it xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

that means they are the only site which chooses to violate bodog's affiliate terms and conditions and will probably get shut down. consider yourself notified.

I like their extremely fast software and good supply of fishy players. I hope they bring back occasional 20% or better reload offers, or change their raked hands to NOT contributed.

Pros:
Fishy players at up to 3/6 limit and $100NL (and probably beyond this, this is all I've tried)
Software is fast
Plenty of players
You can make sports bets
Fast cashouts
Easily clearable 10% deposit bonus all the time
The $100+9 $100k guaranteed tournament usually only has 600 or 700 people.

Cons:
No Pokertracker support
Can only have 3 open tables at once
software can be glitchy

Neutral:
NL and tourney tables are 9-handed

I don't know if they still do this, but I signed up for an account and never deposited money. A few weeks later, I got an email saying they would comp me for the $100k guaranteed tourney If I deposited at least $50.

I know STTs are 10-handed. I thought MTTs were too, but I'm not certain. Their bottomless bonus equates to a 100% refund on fees. So you've got that going for you, which is nice.

I play their low limit heads up sng's occasion. They are fun. Oh, and getting rakeback at bodog is most certainly possible.

I heard they were introducing Mac friendly software soon, any truth to that?

I have signed up for Bodog through this affiliate but haven't started playing yet. I have however signed up at 2 other sites through same affiliate and have not had a problem and found the people behind it to be very forthcoming and easy to deal with. I asked why they were able to offer Bodog rakeback if nobody else could and was told that Bodog wanted to give rakeback a test run. Based on my prior experience with these guys that was enough for me but who knows....

In a nutshell-loser than Party Poker. Smooth software and a decent interface. Guaranteed tournaments during the day time (USA) hours are almost always a positive EV. I find myself playing more and more on here. GL
