I like where your heart's at...shawncarter is my life hero fwiw

LOL, yea... as long as he stays so do I. Not sure what I would do with out my nightly scolding =/

But on a serious note I am staying but with a BR thats reduced just like the guarentees and if I go broke I go broke. Bodog will still be and easy grind to pay for the little things in life.

lol fml. i was literally going to post a thread asking if anyone wants to bet on the monthly tlb on bodog this month because i havnt been playin there at all lately and i miss it. standard, but tbh, i dont even care. nug could be right. the better structures might bring more players, but if not, ill happily crush bodog for an easy 10k a month lol. anyone that doesnt play there is pretty much retarded. theres a thing people do these days called multi tabling, wikipedia that shit.

anyway, anyone wanna maybe do a tlb bet this month on bodog? i miss playin there and feel like ownin shawncarters soul for a month....

took me 3 months to cash out my last dollars there last summer... im assuming that's changed?????

I'd be very interested in this, just not this month. It's summer and I value my time away from teh pokers too much.

On a somewhat side note, I am a bodog affiliate now, which means I can host tourneys. I'll be starting a league pretty soon with prolly a $10 buy-in for members of my site.

But I think I should also do a high rollin' league aimed specifically at all the big time Bodog regs. Something in the $50 - $100 buy-in range, maybe make it a SS with a redic sloooooow structure. Would be fun to play an event like this that offers a real challenge. I'll talk to the affiliate staff and see if we can get a live tourney package added to it or maybe a package including the buyins for all the BPO events this fall. Something, anyway.

I'll brainstorm a bit and crunch some numbers, see what we can do. Look for a post about it in the near future at my site www.nateavensonpoker.com

Don't get how some people are hanging around when they destroyed the guarantees and upped buy in of 100K. Put alot of thought into this and going to cashout half my roll this month just so I can have somewhere to play while waiting on my money since I got peanuts elsewhere. I f things don't improve next month I'll be gone. Think about it they got a $60 10K on AP/UB u can play a 10K for $27.50 and if u go to any of the big sites its less.

-Gotz

GOtz-

Not sure if you ar being sarcastic or not, but they are running a promo series, though I don't think it's much to get excited about. Basically 13 $10 tournies where you can play into a semi and a final tourney where there's a 2010 WSOP main package and some other stuff. - And of course it runs nightly at 835pm starting July 3rd.

This is not the kinda promo stuff that makes any sense to me.....bad series... and not advertised anyway....

So in this context, does this mean something like Bodog cash games are good/awesome? (meaning good)

Bodog cash games will remain juicy until I have busted my entire roll in them.

Dear Bodog:

Please put your guarantees back where they were. Even though this will cause your site to hemorrhage money in overlays� you've been willing to do it in the past and you're not pokerstars� who snap-clips their guarantees any time there's an anticipated drop in traffic� even though they could buy and sell your staff and all of their children approximately 1 billion times over.

I realize that your payouts are faster than other sites several times your size and that your customer service is actually available via phone� but these things are trivial when compared to the cozy fields/huge overlays to which I've become accustomed� but have no doubt seriously compromised your business model.

Oh� and I've been on a sick downswing� so that tilts me too.

GG� WP� etc.
