    So it's taken me almost a year of grinding cash games every day on bodog to accumulate 50k points and my only option is to convert them to $500, which is pretty sad. Can Jester or someone else tell me if they will have a store anytime soon or any other options for points?

    As far as I am aware they are not offering a store in the near future. $500 isn't a bad thing, although I understand your request for other options.

    I'll forward along your request for a player store though. GL at the tables.

    It is so weak that there are only 2 options with bodog points. Convert them into cash or play sats. And at a rate that the points are worth $10 for 1,000 points. This is only 1 one the examples of why bodog is a weak shit poker site and always will be. Bodog is a sportsbook.

    If you are comparing them to FTP or PS, well I am sure they would appear to be subpar, although their goal is not to be FTP or PS, so you are correct there.

    It is a great site for casual players who do not have to worry about pros who are backed or hackers who can transfer their funds, or datamining people. They are also the only site that offers overlays to MTT players... not even PS or FTP can say that, ever.

    I don't mind not having a store because I've made enough from their overlays and free money they offer to MTT players. Cash game players may have more of an argument, although, the games are so soft... they should be happy taking the money of the sportsbook players donking around in the cash games.

    Jester do you ever play live? When you walk into a poker room you see countless FTP hats and shirts, the same with pstars. It would be an awful idea for bodog to offer a way for players to purchase bodog merchandise?

    I actually asked them if I could run their store for them... LOL. They were not interested in it at the time. I'd love some bodog gear to wear. As I said, I can understand why players would want it in my previous post.
