IMO....the company you represent needs to start making Smart decisions. While the BPO is going on Bodog looks like they decided to Cancel the $55 10k all week. As I see it, the site has more traffic because of the BPO and that tourney would easly fill even with the BPO since "most everyone" plays multiple tourneys at the same time. To me bodog is missing out on a smart business decision to capture as much traffic as possible through-out the BPO series.
So with this in mind ( as thier official spokesperson you are ) during the next BPO keep that tourney alive.
Also.......I petition for a $20 rebuy 4-5k gaur. that starts sometime around the other 2 rebuys ( the 3k $12 re and the 2k $10 re ) or even an hour after them just pryor the the $55 10k ( since this seems like the time you have the most traffic). This tourney use to be a favorite for most of the regs ( the 20re 5k ) but was usually to late at night to always make the gaur.
With all due respect.......I really dont feel that the site listens much to there long time players ( not looking to bash here). Give this $20 rebuy a chance because I "gaurantee" that it will fill. Just look at all the other sites that have a $20 rebuy. They always CRUSH the gaurantees!
Edit: a $20 rebuy is an important tourney when a player is trying to make a jump from Low stakes to Mid stakes. It is paramount to the exsistence of all players trying to establish a bank roll.
OK...lets break this down. If the $20 with rebuys is scheduled between the 3k $12 re and the $55 10k It should get at least 100+ players.
100 x $20 = 2000 entered 50 x $20 = 1000 Minimum rebuys 50 x $20 = 1000 Minimum add ons
More easy math....this is yesterdays $12 rebuy 3k figures 11/4/09

Looks like it would be very easy to hit a 4k Gaurantee as a $20 + rebuys IMO

Hey there,
Thank you so much for this- I passed it on to the decision maker at Bodog Network and they are going to try to put it back on the schedule. :) | | |
Now I just Pray it happens =/

Is it just me or does saying "Bodog Network" over and over sound like she's speaking about herself in the third person? I know it's some sort of legal/business arrangement but it sounds so silly to me. I think we can drop the legalities on here -- people here just want to see a better Bodog whether it's the Bodog Network, Bodog Licensee, Bodog Janitor or whatever other parts of Bodog there are.

Bodog Network will only add guarantee tournaments if they can be filled, but they definitely want to have as many popular tournaments as possible. Regarding the daily $20 with rebuys, I will forward your wishes to our tournament manager.
Thank you! Becky

4K Gaurantee looks very easy to fill IMO Bodog Becky

Its REALLLLY not hard to make urself into a playable poker room, cake
and UB just did it in a short period of time and after all this time
bodog is still screwin it up. Put the schedule from 2 years back up,
advertise the shit out of it, and watch hundreds of people come
flocking back. Or not, what do I know? I've only played more MTTs on there than anyone else has. Doesnt seem like high traffic is what they want tho or they
would've done it by now, and if they have seriously been trying to get more
people and turn into a real poker site this whole time, then LOLLLLLL
at the amount of effort, its truly done nothing but make Bodog disappear from the online poker scene. If you want a different scenario for your site's business other than pros from other sites depositing just to play your BPO and nothing else, I suggest something changes.

count me as one who would come back full time if the schedule improved! until then... cya for BPO's only
|

I use to be a regular on Bodog...since they took away all the guarantees and changed the whole schedule upside down, I took my business elsewhere.
Bring back the guarantees and add some more 5K+ tourneys and you'll see me back in action on "Bodog Network."

Agree!

TBH I've came very close to taking my roll off of bodog in recent weeks, as cake and ub/ap are stepping up and bodog has nothing to show. A $20r would definitely be nice and a raise in some of the guars also. Bodog needs to stop worrying about the money so much and grow a bigger customer base, it really doesn't take long if they start with getting a better tourney schedule and bigger guars imo.
