[Bodog/Bovada/Ignition] Unofficial Thread

Still down. Yeah you gotta wonder if there was some sorta hack with certain games. Really weird. Not many players on lately either. You can play on the web client on bovada, but it's not nearly as easy to nagivatate in and out of the tables. So it's gonna obviously decrease play and profits for them

Ya it's really killing the MTT fields :(

I made an account with ignition. Same desktop app as bovada. It works for ignition. Down for bovada. So you can play there in the meantime. But it's a ghost town lol. Bovada obv has more players and if you can't get in through the destkop many won't bother. Unless they're in an airport on their phone dicking around waiting for a flight or something. Also, anyone know how the bonuses work? There's a 1500 bonus on ignition for poker as a sign up bonus. Trying to get an idea of how much I have to play to actually unlock it. If it's $1500 worth of buy in fees you need for the 1500 that's a lot to earn

Has anyone got any response from the support? Seems odd they wont reply at all or aknowlage the issue what so ever.

Withdrawals work fine on bovada. I've never seen anything like this in many years of playing. I mean this is almost a week. It feels like everything is functioning except poker. Strange that ignition would work and bovada doesn't. That's why it almost feels like some sort of a hack. A technical issue you wouldn't think would take this long. Not to mention if ignition is the same software there would be some information sharing

I just think they don't care about poker. They are a sports betting site and they get like 90% of American off shore sports bets. So they just don't care about poker ... still love ya Calvin 😀

Replied to my email.
"Hi,
Thanks for contacting Bovada Customer Service.
The poker client is currently undergoing maintenace, but you're still able to play poker on our site using this link:
If you are still experiencing issues, please let us know as soon as possible, responding to this email or through our live chat!
We're available to help 24/7 if you need anything else.
Best Regards,
Bovada Customer Service "

So essentially no end in sight?

I was just able to log in. Hopefully everyone else is too. And yeah you're generally right about only caring about sports. They also don't care about long term clients at all. No VIP system. You do at least get cash back. If you're a big bettor you can probably get a couple thousandish back a month if you're betting 2k, 5k, 8k on whatever. That's better than you probably get one some sites. But it's still a nice feeling to know you're valued on some level and everyone gets treated equally - the one time depositer who bets $10 or the guy that's been on 10 years betting several thousand a game

Thats great, since when its up and running?

Hi guys,

I am in Australia and thinking of depositing on ignition, how good is the withdrawal process these days?

Also is it possible to get HM3 to synch with the ignition platform?

Thanks

Withdrawals for me have been good. With BCH I get money in my wallet within 20 minutes most times and little/no fees. HEM 3 works with Bovada, so I assume it works on Ignition too.

Deposit via Bitcoin or other coins first I believe is required to withdraw via that coin. I could be wrong.
Withdrawn is done fairly quickly within 1 hour to bank account. Only 1 withdrawal done via each coin in a 3 day period. so 3 withdraws in 72 hours if done 1 with btc, 1 with eth, and 1 with usdt.
Withdraw to a wallet like Blockchain.com first. then to a Australian exchange.
Can deposit via card to ignition afterwards and withdraw via Bitcoin or other coins.

Does this happen in low stakes MTTs as well? A poster explained in a newer thread that its been happening in NLH 25NL.

Why is anyone still playing here? Bots boys and bots.

No complaints at all from me regarding Bovada.

Sure they have issues with disconnects but they usually make good with bonus point drops as their way of apologizing.

Last time about a month or two ago I woke up to find 100,000 points in my account due to issues, none of which affected me. About an $85 value..

Jungmit is a verifiable rigtard. That being said he's not wrong about ignition. The bots have been about at varying degrees over the last 18 months but they hit the tables in another huge wave mid April. The 2k and 1k games are now probably worse than even 12 months ago. This isn't about "git gud", games are borderline unbeatable at high stakes without intense selection.

the entirety of online poker is botted/RTAd to hell. you gotta play everywhere to find good games in 2025

This you?

I've been using Coinbase since they started making you deposit with it. I have a balance currently. I can't get my money out. Can't send to blockchain. Can't withdraw cash.
Just stuck. I tried their Facebook support. nope. When I decided to try FB again, I have a bunch of messages to try different companies I can join to get my money, i.e. scams. I had a problem with them a few years ago, I threatened Federal. action. Got resolve right away.

No phone number for customer support. All this started when they wanted me to get the app.

Yes and everything I said about ACR/it's sisters was true. You rigtards are so dumb it's actual comedy <3

Just had to log out for of the client for the first time in a couple weeks. Trying to re-login the online client isn't working...again. Same for everyone else?

Yep. This is an absolute joke. Don't worry. It'll only be 10 days to fix it again
