    Because they cheat and bodog employees play at their tables and cheat people out of their hard earned money!! It's a shame because the site was a lot of fun 5 years ago! Now you can't tell me that they don't cheat and that they are legit! I don't mind losing to someone who outplays me. But over the last 2 days I have lost EVERY hand to someone who made an awful call "post flop", when they have had no business being in the hand........you know drawing into 1-3 outers or needing running runner 1-3 outers.
    For example......
    $105 dollar heads up on bodog.
    It's level 2 I'm losing 1350 chips to 1650 chips....roughly.
    I raise with Ace King suited, 4 times the big blind, then they"the bodog employee" minimum raise me.....
    so I go all in for almost 1200 more chips. Now you would think they would fold with king ten off suit in a $105 dollar heads up.......but they don't!!!
    Flop 3K3 TURN 10!!! of course!!!! I waited 10 minutes for someone to even sit down at a $105 dollar heads up and you mean to tell me that the person is going to play that bad!! I DONT THINK SO!!

    Also everyone in higher stakes games happens to be from a major US city!!! Richmond, LA, Sacramento, Pittsburgh, Austin!!! All the cities in the United States but yet every big stakes player is from a major city........wow what a coincidence!! But it's just way too shady and something needs to be done!!

    If pocketfives supports a site like bodog you really need to question what your company goal is. Are you guys looking to promote fair play, legal sites and develop a friendly online community? Or are you looking for hush money from bodog and don't really care about anything other than money?

    Good Luck fellow pocket fivers

    lol wut?

    I'm destroying the "bodog employees" if they are the ones who are playing really badly and trying to suckout.

    Probably a higher chance that someone from a major city would be a high stakes player because there are more people in bigger cities and there are more people with money in bigger cities.

    Hmmm yes, P5s should definitely review their company goals just because you got jailsexed with a King and a 10.

    I def changed my felt to Blue....sometimes Green to make me happy.

    And fuck...It wasn't even that bad of a beat!

    Quit trying to scare people away from the only legit options Americans have right now.

    Pocketfives doesn't accept advertising from any US poker room, but irregardless of that all you are doing is whining about a bad beat.

    Carbon poker is much worse than bodog for random issue in card engines. U obviously lose crazier with solid hand in carbon, such as AA to any 2 cards in mtt. Carbon encourages ppl to play donkey rather than bodog. I luv bodog to cashout faster than carbon also.
