Here's the email I sent, feel free to cut and paste ::----Please add some $400nl 6 max tables!I've emailed requesting this before...and they weren't added.Bodog is primarily a NL site. 6 max is a more exciting form of poker, as opposed to a full ring game. I don't understand why they don't offer more 6 max games...it's frustrating, really.Would it be too much to ask to add these tables...say, friday and saturday night and see how they do? Maybe even add $200nl 6 max tables and see how those do as well over the weekend.I personally strictly play 6 max games, and so my play at bodog is limited cause the software only has $100nl 6 max and $600nl. I'm trying to think of reasons as to why you guys would reject this, and I can't find any. At worse, the tables are there and no one plays? I doubt that...and once word gets out, I'm sure more and more 6 max players will come to the site.Thanks,----------emails can be sent to poker@bodog.comif you play there, please request this!- Jordan

I will never play at Bodog again because of the fiasco with the 2 bracelet bet and the way they treated their Main Event qualifiers with the party thing.

And that helps those that still play cash games there and are looking for more 6 max games how?Sorry if they screwed you, or whatever happened...cause I really don't know, but am curious about the party thing...However, I don't really want to get this too off topic, so if you wanna PM me that be cool...otherwise, I appreciate the help from anyone who emails Bodog about adding the tables.Thanks.- Jordan

Wow, check out this bonehead email I got back from them ::Dear Jordan,Thank you for contacting Bodog Poker Customer Service. In order tohave a balance of tables in the poker room we have chosen only to offerthe 6 max tables with certain limits. As you may have noticed we arerunning into a dilemma with the $100 max as now we almost have more 6person $100 max tables in comparison to nine person tables. To ensurea balance of tables in the poker room we are unable at this point intime to open a $600 max table.Thank you again for writing. If you require any further assistance,please do not hesitate to contact us.Regards,Poker Customer ServiceBodog.comSports - Casino - Pokerpoker@bodog.comwww.bodog.com/poker1-866-909-ACES (2237)----Here is what I'm sending them back ::Huh? I'm not trying to be rude, but did you even understand my first email?I was requesting $400nl and $200nl 6 max tables. There already are $600nl 6 max tables. So I don't know what you mean by mentioning the $600nl 6 max games.Also, why do you need to balance tables if more people show an interest in playing 6 max? I really believe Bodog is missing out on business by not offering more 6 max tables at other limits (EG $400nl and $200nl).If there are more and more $100nl 6 max tables, I'm sure more and more will play $200nl 6 max and $400nl 6 max. Also, playing 6 max you play more hands per hour, which in turn means you pay more rake, which in turn means the casino has a potential to turn more profit.Strictly from a business point of a view, I can't see why these tables haven't been added months and months ago. If you guys have a poker room manager, I'd love to speak with him or her personally, about these subjects.Thank you,- Jordan--------bleh, hopefully I get someone competent to email me back next time.I've had issues before with their support, and it took like 3 emails to talk with someone who was very apologetic and actually listened....hopefully something gets through this time.- Jordan

I got the same reply - I am also replying for clarification"I just want to understand this one thing, why is it a dilemma if there are more 6 person tables running than 9 person tables? All this shows is that you have more players interested in 6 person tables. This will bring more business to the sites, so how is it a dilemma? I for one don't play NL cash games on bodog because of the lack of $200 and $400 max 6 person NL tables. I know I am not alone."

I guess my point was just that their customer service blows and they don't seem to care very much about their players, as evidenced by the emails you got back. Didn't mean to hijack your thread or anything. Should have just kept my thoughts to myself. Good luck with getting anything out of them.

Try absolute. They have these limits and the NL is played almost exclusively on 6-max there.

We have found that short handed tables are taxing on the economy of the poker room. We will be adding more short-handed tables as our player base grows. We understand your frustration, but we also need to take into consideration the current structure of our poker room.

Regards,Poker Customer ServiceBodog.com Sports - Casino - Pokerpoker@bodog.comwww.bodog.com/poker1-866-909-ACES (2237)----I wrote them back something which they havn't responded to. Basically how every poker site has freaking 6 max at all limits, regardless of their player base...and they dominate the tables...and that by not offering more 6 max tables they are hurting their player base..blah. i dont know if they get it.- Jordan
