    Bovada grades so many bets incorrectly

    Have already had to call in four times for them to correct set bets they've graded incorrectly. I've only fired 12 bets over there since the USO started too.

    They need to get it together.

    after their big update you can't find their max bets anywhere. i think their preseason football max was $125. wtf is that shit?

    i'm very glad i moved most of my funds to heritage and 5 dimes. bovada will be strictly poker only for me unless they have juicy dogs for the football season.

    yeah it says bets have to be reviewed, but they usually confirm it within 30sec to a minute even for $300 bets

    LOL They've graded 3 straight wagers incorrectly...now they graded Allertova +1.5 sets as a loss. Are these people just hoping their players don't realize?

    Odd. I've placed hundreds of bets here and never had one be incorrect.

    Really?? That's very weird. Maybe someone in the grading dept has developed a bad brain tumor and not noticed yet.

    If it keeps happening please fill in a complaint form with the bet details and we can at least ask about an explanation for you.

    I don't look after the Bovada complaints but it appears they have gone to the 5D system where we only find out the limit when we try to bet above it.

    Might be wrong, but don't think asking is going to help.

    No idea on limits, they let me bet a $520 to win $400 earlier on tennis handicap, but now it says a $330 to win $300 is pending approval because it is over the limit!?!?

    And they just rejected it:

    The Bet to win exceeds the maximum allowed for the bet type in event Isner, John vs Youzhny, Mikhail.

    One of the worst site layouts in the world shyt is slow and they just seem like trying to do too much with graphics. Should focus on the important shyt like not taxing ppl fees and grading software

    They graded Haase +2.5 sets as a loser initially yesterday as well. Didn't call in as my gf was home and checked later in the evening and it was corrected. Still annoying IMO.

    even with all these issues, bovada has the best cashout options. in this day and age, that probably is the most important thing.

    never understood why you have to cashout early mornings on a monday or tuesday, or wednesday to get a free cashout and have to wait another 30 days when it should be one free cashout per month.

    Never had any problems with grading.

    The live betting at bovada new layout sucks major balls however, it just takes forever for a bet to be placed. then of course line changes or the line is frozen so your bet is cancelled.

    Ghengis, how do you like Bovada's poker? I'm looking to play some $1/$2 NL and Bovada is on my radar.

    Any weird collusion?

    Payouts?

    Thanks.

    bovada is your best option when it comes to poker for the us players. i didn't like the anon tables at first but you get used to it. try it out. people talk about collusion but it's not as bad as people think. most lose playing poker so they need a reason.

    as for payouts, they've been having processor issues with checks the last couple months but thing called vff have been pretty consistent. you get your money in a week. make sure to deposit using v__a cred or debit. i think that's how you get vff as one of your option for payouts. they have bankwires and rapid transfer that i haven't used before. also they are beta testing ** card. but invite only for that option, i guess i'm not special enough, i didn't get an invitation to try it out.

    basically, their new layout sucks, but bovada's good for poker, good for dogs, best in payouts.
