Thanks for the article. I was on Bodog this past weekend and am no fan of the changes made.

That is some pretty scary stuff dane! All those bodog idiots did was attach a number 1 to the players ID number and call that obscurity? What hell was bodog think'in with this bullshit!

Hard to believe they would act like such amateurs.

Although if both of them are transmitting a static unique ID per player I guess there must be some significant programming problem in doing it a better way.

You'd think a simple server side lookup table that issues a different ID to the client each time a player logs on would not be difficult though.

what i find hilarious is bodogbecky so adamantly defending bodog.

i laugh when people say you don't need to cuss out the lower level person working there. they fukkin chose to work there, if its a bs good/service you're offering, it was a fukkin poor choice for u to get involved with the company and should be expected to get bitched at for it.

so long bodog. you will be broke soon...or turned into the tables like wsex had

edit: thanks noser

bodog scum of the business,

She seems to ignore polite requests to look at stuff.

But like a fly on shit to argue with loud complainers.

Not sure why some of you are complaining, if you are claiming to be that good, than you should turn a profit in any game regardless if you have notes or not. Apparently this data leak helps data miners, so thats a good thing right? Do you really want fish having easy access to same data that you do?

What I am getting at is that I am an everyday live player. I don't have the luxury of taking and recalling notes on the fly. I have to rely on position, memory and tells. So when I go online, I play the same way out of habit. I have no need for poker tracker anymore (I used it with Stars/Tilt for a time), and I still consistently show a profit.

If you cant beat this new format, than quite frankly, you suck at poker

I'm still making money on Bodog. I don't break the bank but I grind out more checks than deposits from them. I play primarily 8/16 or 4/8 limit if the pots are big enough and .50/1 or 1/2 plo. I sit with $75 at the 1/2 plo (60 minimum) or $40 at the .50/1 (30 minimum). It seems to work pretty well because the donks that keep reloading with small amounts suck and the other guys that are up a few hundred feel pretty good so they're not threatened by $75 and are often willing to gamble with the worst of it. My issue there is sitting down with $40 is one thing and then holding $300 and taking some chances is another. I still like Bodog even with the software bs. I started w/online poker at Pacific Poker beating up on degenerate casino gamblers that crossed over from their Euro online casino and Bodog still has alot of the same types. Other people always pumped up Stars but I never won on Stars. Why play at a site where they brag about having better players? I never got that?
