    Top 4 Reasons to Play on Bodog:
    1. T-Builder Tournaments. They cost $3.5 and you earn $27 in tourney credits if you win.
    2. Support. SOMEONE IS ALWAYS THERE TO ANSWER THE PHONE
    3. Payout structure. Def tilted towards your finishing top 5.
    4. Fish are always schooling.

    I left Bodog on like Jan 11 I believe. I had been playing under JayChizza and was tearing through tournament fields for much of the fall. Then I ran into a cold spell, + got a new job so I didn't play much. I came back this year with a new name "YoungHovah" and new attitude and again proceeded to rip it up over the course of a week BEFORE I caught some people cheating in a 2/4 cash game, and Bodog did nothing. So I boycotted... I'm back now though.

    I played my first tourney in over a month on Bodog last night. I donked out 48th, yeah I think I want that #1 spot for Bodog TLB this year.

    How did you get a "new name"

    I was told by Bodog that you can't change your name and you can't open up a second account under your name, even if you want to delete your old one...

    This doesn't sound right

    Love Bodog and it's pretty much the only site I play on but they need to add:

    <span>Money Transfers</span>
    <span>Better MTT Stats on position/etc.</span>

    After over 2 years of asking they finally changed their SNG structure and they will be adding MTT SNGS's soon...

    freak of nature? It so easy to win leaderboard points when you play close to 50 tourneys a week (throw some big money tourneys), like him and nevertilt22. It called a very big bankroll and a lot time to do nothing else.

    I agree Rock. Nothing against Nevertilt or the others but it's SO easy to get leaderboard points playing that many a week. In my opinion, the leaderboard is overrated (Just like the P5s top leaderboard players. Not everyone has a big BR to play high-limit re-buys or 20 tourneys, like Annette, in 3 days). Well, I guess if you have a big BR and nothing else to do I would too. Oh wait, I have a life (job and family) who am I kidding.

    i love the chanllenges from guys like you and #1pen. It's a BR good for you to be able to play so many and always want to challenge players who are not leaderboard hard-on types. I play to win money and enjoy the game of poker. I don't play to be the top dog.
