Bodog Poker review

Bodog operates one of the oldest and best established online sportsbooks. Its online poker operation has been growing steadily ever since it was established, and despite the fact that after the UIGEA, Bodog Poker took quite a few hits (they even had their domain name confiscated) they’re still among the fastest growing online poker rooms. At least part of their success can be attributed to the fact that they accept US players.

Bodog’s software has recently been overhauled. It now features one of the most attractive user interfaces and excellent functionality.

Players can take notes on their opponents, they can view the usual statistics as well as statistics concerning their own actions.

As far as multi-tabling goes, play is available at three tables simultaneously. Mini table views are also available.

The graphics are crisp and clean and the avatars don’t aim to be 3D-like ones, which is a nice break from the general trend these days.

Bodog currently has around 2,400 cash game players at its tables, mostly concentrated on the NL Holdem ones.

There are around 9,000 players at the tournament tables, which means that there’s definitely no shortage of action there.

Bodog Poker’s sign-up bonus is an innovative one. They give you a 10% match on your first deposit, upfront, which means you’ll be able to take that money to the tables right away. On top of this deal, you get another 100% match up to a maximum of $500, as you earn your Bodog Poker points. Poker points can be earned at the real money as well as at the play money tables, where you get rewarded for the time you spend playing.

Bodog Poker does feature some of the best and most generous no-strings-attached freerolls in the poker industry. If you’re looking to start a bankroll from scratch, Bodog is probably the best place to do it.

They also offer qualifiers to live poker events. Many of the sub qualifiers can be bought into for poker points.

Bodog’s support is reachable through email and phone. Their response times are reasonable and the staff is obviously knowledgeable.
