    Bodog seems to have a problem with limit games. I just tried to play a Bodog limit tournament to check things out and...

    The bet does not increase on the turn and river.

    In a normal limit game the bet on the flop is 1 BB, turn and river are 2 BB's, correct?

    In the Bodog tournament then bet is always the size of the BB, never increasing.

    I know you NL fishies don't get it, but this is a BIG DEAL. Can whomever has Bodog's ear (the person who brought the BPO idea to p5s in the first place) please get someone on the phone and explain to them that they need to change this IMMED.

    For the record, I opened up a limit sat and saw that the OP was correct, at 75/150 blinds the bet was 150 all the way to the river.

    I've played several LHE tournies on Bodog in the past (as recently as this week) and the betting increments have always been correct. Hopefully your experience was an isolated event.

    If level is 20/40, 10 sb and 20 bb with betting in 20 increments pre and post flop. Turn and river bets would be in 40 increments.

    EDIT: Maybe they are applying this structure to the sattys. Not sure why they would do that, but it would be terrible if they did this in event 5.

    I JUST CALLED BODOG and they told me this will not happen tonight, It was a simple error in that Satellite.

    Their fix limit tourneys work like they work at any other site.
