Default bodog ad in cardplayer vol18/18 inside back cover

Ad states "deposit $100 and get $100 free right away". the title is NO BULLS#!T.
Well you still have to work it off at the tune of 300 bodog points which takes a very long time at a $1/$2 table. I did call and this is the answer I received. It's not really "free" as it does have restrictions although you can lose it and there is no penalty beofore you work it off.

The ad gives you the impression there are no requirements for the matching $100 bonus. I did read it over numerous times. I still feel the ad is very misleading and this kind of advertising is what will sour some when the time comes to judge on-line poker.

THey could have easily added a line in the ad saying you must work off the bonus. They even keep how many points you need to work it off a mystery till you call up. A bit sleezy?- you judge. Nothing at all on the site telling you you need 300 bodog points to work off the "free" $100 bonus that has no "strings" attached!
