Is your chat turned off all the time?
Just ignore it?
Or do you just hate me?

I'm guessing hate.

I think he's ignoring this post....

I'm gonna have to agree. Maybe he has Dave set to ignore.

Ha. Sorry, man. I wasn't ignoring you. Just play so many tables that I sometimes miss the chat. I'll keep an eye out in the future.

This is why I question you repeatedly on AIM.

Ok maybe not. But you are dreamy.

Hey Cobalt, what are your thoughts on the lower limits at Bodog .(NLHE,LHE,PLO) I'm thinking of tossing a couple hundred on there and taking a run at it.

I know you play much higher limits, but I figured i'd ask anyway. Maybe you started out grinding the low limits there, I don't know. I'm most curious about the competition, traffic, etc. I mostly play NLHE $25, LHE .50/1.00 and PLO$25.

Thanks.

The lower limits are full of bad players. I started out on Bodog with $25 and playing .05/.10 NLHE. Have turned that into ~$45k in around 20 months...so it's definitely my sentimental "home". There really isn't too much LHE or PLO on there, but the games that are going are pretty soft as a result. As for NLHE, I think it's possible to make a decent wage playing .25/.50 on there. I'm usually playing 1/2, 2/4, 3/6 these days. One day, I'll get the nerve and roll to take shots at 5/10.

I dont post here as much anymore but i thought id comment on this since there was a time when me and cobalt played together a lot

the low limit nl are pretty easy at bodog. averaging 20bb/100 is not a problem at all at 25nl there.

Limit there is also pretty easy up to 2/4 at least (as high as i went). you cant use poker tracker but id assume that at my bb/100 was around 3-4. Most on that site have no clue on limit

Cobalt did u really have 45k playin at those limits

not just from 25-100nl. he hasn't been playing 100nl for 20 months, lol.

Bodog is very soft. I took $50 to 4k in a few months playing 50 and 100nl there. mixed with HU cash games on another site for another extra 2k. oh and then i donked off taht in a night, but that's a different story.

so yea, very soft low limit nl games.

just seems like it wasnt that long ago he was playin 1/2 with me....thats crazy though...yeah i had 97 cents on there a few days ago and now im up over 30...hopin to turn this into a nice roll so i dont have to use paychecks

I agree though...You really dont need a lot of skill to do well on there...only thing that sucks for me is i cant play how id like to play b/c of only havin 30 bucks right now

Well, I live off of my play, so my current roll is only ~12k.

Well, you talked me into it. Bodog will be my next new site. I'll probably chuck $250-$300 on there with the next couple of rakeback payments from my other sites.

On a side note, I was playing at Absolute yesterday and a couple of donks were talking about how awful Bodogs software is. Is it really that bad??

I don't much care, as I play at Pacific , whose software is gross. Just curious.


Thanks for the info.

people lose on bodog and complain about the site...but i probably have made as much or more on there hten ive made on party over an equal amount of hands

Bodog is awesome. I've made 3k in a week and a half playing no higher than 100nl, and this includes a heinous downswing in which I lost 4 concecutive all ins preflop with AA each for a buy in. My only complaint is the 3 table max. I tried to email support to get it lifted, but they did nothing. Is there any way around it?

erac

Unfortunately, nope.


Before you download it and sign up on there, shoot me a PM. I can get you rakeback.

And, the software was pretty glitchy when they first put out this second version, but it's actually decent these days.

Before you download it and sign up on there, shoot me a PM. I can get you rakeback.



I will, but it might be a while, need to get a couple more rakeback payments under my belt. Thanks, Cobalt.

What affiliate do you use for RB at Bodog?

It's a site called cuttherake.com. When you get around to signing up, go through them and I'd certainly appreciate it if you told them I referred you.

rakeback doesnt work for people already members huh?

Not if you went through an affiliate or listed a referral when you signed up with Bodog. They're also slowing down on "conversions" of existing accounts unless you're a "high volume player".

i did neither..didnt have a referall or sign up through an affiliate...signed up a long time ago straight through bodog

Yeah, then you might be cool. Let me talk to my guy in the next couple of days, and I'll get back to you.

sweet man

as much as i play bodog i might as well

So if I sigend up through PSO there's no way I'm gettin rakeback?

Nope. =/
