[Bodog/Bovada/Ignition] Unofficial Thread

This thread is to separate the Bovada-related comments and questions from the Official Bodog Support Thread, which is there only for questions or concerns about anything Bodog-branded.

There is no official Bovada Rep at 2+2 at this time, but perhaps if discussion is effected in a civil manner, one might arrive in due course?

Thank you.

At this point in time is there any evidence indicating this site is NOT working with the bots?

This disconnection issue on cash game tables within 5minutes of opening the tables and being relocated from decent tables to reg/bot tables only and not being able to open any more tables from that point onwards without closing the client and reopening is so sus...


can't even log into the client lately. Even when I do get it it's nearly impossible to get cash game tables loaded.


Probably just doing some long overdue server upgrades Haha. (lol)


Bodog almost unplayable for anyone else? I get disconnected and cant get back in. Happens almost every night. How are so many people still playing here?


I tried out most poker softwares on the market and Bodog has the worst software of all rooms I tried. I'm only playing there a bit and when I try to switch from mobile to desktop during an mtt it's mostly not possible and suddenly I can't login nowhere. Blinded out multiple times because of this glitch.

Software feels heavy, clunky and outdated from my perspective.


Done with this site for good I think. Thought that maybe if I used the browser, the disconnect bug would stop happening, but no. Was honestly a good run. GG


I know its the same post as everyone else, but I personally very much value seeing time stamps of when people had issues so I know if I'm crazy or not. I played from 1am to 630am pst and didn't disconnect for the first 3 hour session then disconnected twice in the first hour of my next session before I decided to take a break till later.


Kind of suspicious when your playing at a 6 max table, have 4 marked as a bot and 1 as a rec, and then those 4 all instantly leave at the exact same moment .. leaving you HU with the rec for a few hands, and then the table instantly fills again with players that are playing like a bot. What are the chances all of these 'regs' wanted to leave at the exact same time, with a rec at the table, and not caring about seeing their free hands.


Is the site down???


can't even login ffs

Is the site down???

Does seem down on software, although can log in and see balance...

OK could sign on, just like 60 second load time lol.


There is two things going on in the PLO 500-2k games.

There is bots, yes, but they feel harmless almost, but there is also a group of 3-4-5 players moving around and starting games. They seem to play daytime Florida, MAINLY 1k plo. Organized cheaters that have become very good at what they do. They also randomly will play 2k, but seem to be very careful with that stake. I guess they have been caught before and are careful about that stake since it might be slightly more supervised, or its just harder to get control of the tbls with so many elite players looking in for games.

This got stable written all over it and since they can move up to 2k they seem to be playing from the US. Some days they don't play and games r soft, nitbotts and whales but when they play u get absolute killed since they have become elite at this. After my last post games got very soft for 2-3 weeks, i firmly believe the guys that are cheating are reading here withdrawal in panic after fear of getting caught again and loosing balance.

But last two weeks they are def back at it. Maybe they set up new accounts.

Maybe these guys? https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/29/ne... it would explain why for a week here and there they are gone, when big a mtt run?

I hope someone has been bragging, showing big win rates and graphs over 2023-2024 of Bovada winnings? If someone u know show u a big 1k plo win rate or graph (200k+) or know any stable that play 500-2k Bovada a lot and win they should post here. I just wanna know who u are cheaters, so i can cast spells on u and give u ass cancer u fnin evil scumbags.

The problem is, it's impossible (or at least very very difficult) to "prove" that something didn't happen, so you're setting up a logical issue where you can always feel
The "randomly distributed" issue is a non-issue, it just makes no sense. There is no random distribution of stacks because poker is a fluid game. If 8 people bust on one table in the same time that 4 people bust on another, the first table is going to have more chips on it. Those chips don't have anywhere outside that one tab

Let's say that 60% of players Max buy, 20% Min buy, and 20% are somewhere in between. If the spot in position on me opens up, it should seat players at those frequencies every single time. It has been my experience that in certain situations, it will seat short stacks at a frequency that clearly is not the result of randomly seating a new player. My claim that stack sizes are not randomly distributed is in no way an incorrect use of the term.

I can now see why my tanking claim can't be proven or disproven without video. But can we agree that if tanking has any impact on if a player is swapped, then Bovada is crossing a massive line?

I have seen this a million times and yes they are bots. I go back and forth between thinking they are compromised. There is humans that are getting banned/KYC:d/reviewed for security reasons. In some cases have I heard about confiscations of balances. We have seen no refunds for 3-4 years I think (?). Their playing style aside which is easy to spot, their table behavior is even easier to spot. I rarely feel like the fish are going for max profit. It seems like they are happier chasing regs than chasing fish. Before and on every other site you would see games break when a whale busts but I don't see that happening. Not to mention also how you can load up 4 tables on any stake 24/7.


by whatthejish k

I donÂ’t see anyone denying that there are bot/collusion issues.

Really? Nobody?

by PoutinePenguin k

i play SNG for a living.. show me the hands and ill tell you if its collusion or if you just dont understand how to play a bubble

And then just posts later:

by PoutinePenguin k

the solution is to stop giving this terrible site action. they prove their incompetent every day, we all bitch in here, and most of you continue to play. i took my money off months ago. just check this thread occasionally to see if things get better and get a lot of LOLs seeing all the complaints yet you continue to play

Constant gaslighting from these dolts.

I honestly feel at this point that Bovada has superuser accounts that they use to claw back the constant overlays in their tourneys. That is why they do absolutely nothing with the bot infestation, because it will always give a constant distraction away from them being the ultimate cheaters. I have seen way too many instances where someone open shoves for some asinine amount in a tournament and I'm staring down at AA on the button like it's too good to be true. When they then flop a 9 and river a 2, I'm reminded that it always is. Every single time without fail, the person playing like they have some sort of magical premonition guiding their stupidity wins the hand, and checking back in on the lobby, takes a top 3 spot in the tournament.

Am I saying poker is rigged? No. I'm saying that their management and software is. The site is not above board.


anyone else having cosntant disconnects from the poker software for no reason? any fix?


Same problem, looking for a solution. It's exhausting how it's working


yes same issue




still getting disconnected 5 minutes into a session :(


I withdrew my money and moved to ACR and I’m just gonna play tournaments there, it’s just way too frustrating with these frequent disconnections on ignition. Was the best play to pay cash games but now I can’t even play


by Turbulenc3 k

yes same issue

ok glad its not just me, agreed unplayable unreal.


by jk3a k

still getting disconnected 5 minutes into a session :(

same lol at least they're trying to do something about it


It only took them 4 months to finally admit the problems COULD be coming from their side......


Does it work better?
