        I suspect they are attempting fix for log4j vulnerability that has been giving folks in software development sleepless nights recently.

        For a large enterprise like Bovada, they likely have containerized environment and disaster recovery in place.

        Additionally, for those that use Bovada regularly, you must have noticed there was a notification for pending update on landing page. Unfortunately, they haven't come back up since them.

        For those curious, some vendors e.g: VMware have shared a workaround fix for this critical vulnerability, however patches still in the works for which many folks will be working over Holidays.

        My largest balance is there. Using BookMaker and Betonline balances in the meantime;

        Best of luck this weekend

                  A buddy of mine lost $700 on slots because of a system error. They promised him a full compensation. And actually admitted a system error 2 weeks ago. THRee days LATER HE got a message say we found no errors in our systems and no refund. After they admitted and promised.

                  He said he wouldbe reporting jt to slots complaints company or forum and they threatened to ban him if he did so....

                  My buddy has been with them for 5 years faithfully

                    This is clearly now alarming. I still think the funds are safe, but they could be down for days at this point.

                    They recently said at least 7 or 8 more hours, which takes them into the morning hours. At that point, unlikely they'll just pop up at 1 a.m. US time.

                        I think we call all agree it was not an upgrade on a football Thursday going into a bowl weekend.

                          It very well may have been an upgrade. Remember, the critical security issue Log4j is out there. Companies around the world are applying emergency patches this week when they normally wouldn't make any system changes just before he holidays. Sometimes the world doesn't give you any choice. Also, they had this outage planned for a few days.

FYI: that was over 20 hours ago and the s### site is still down. WHen they close the doors for good I will tell ya I told ya so. Glad to have other books as options......especially ones that don't take 36+ hours for a "poker upgrade"

                          What a F'ing joke!!!! This book was rated A+ here? That's some funny s###!!!
                          I'm pretty sure our funds are safe. In a worst case scenario, they must have backups they can turn to to recover the system. That's just common sense.

                          It's always been "the sky is falling" when this stuff happens to BetOnline, Bookmaker, etc. But they always manage to pull through eventually. There's too much money riding on it on their end for it not to.

                            IMO ( nobody here knows)
                            Funds absolutely safe, even if they have to go back 48 hours and work the honor system from there.
                            There is no way this was caused by an upgrade
                            It could be a hack that scrambled their database or worse
                            It could be them leaving the USA market
                            it could be government enforcement seizing servers in one of their foreign offices

                            Just my opinion, but I would put caused by upgrade pretty down on the list.

                              I am beginning to like the idea of using a custodial wallet to bet on the blockchain more every day.

                                  I got 18 large sitting in Bovada now.

                                  They better get their shit together soon! I'm patient but come on man it's been 2 days and still counting now. I don't know of any book that was down for this long and I've been on all the books for decades now.

                                  BETDSI and BOOKMAKER did their upgrades a few years ago and were down for an hour or two tops. Bovada is a BIG well known book also.

                                        It’s been a frustrating last 24 hours for both you and us. We're working around the clock to restore services. So far, here's what we know: -This was triggered by an upgrade gone bad. -Your balance is safe. We promise. -We anticipate at least another 7-8 hours of downtime.

                                            i would put it on the top of the list, since the site went down right when they said it would for the upgrade

                                                  I wanted to use them when I leave the country on Tuesday. Have a small balance there now but nothing to freak about

                                                                Totally agree. I work in online payments and similar to what adila1401 said above, organizations are scrambling due to the log4j issue. They have been my primary book now for 6-7 years after I left b365 for their horrible cx service. using bookmaker in the meantime but I hope they get this resolved by Saturday at the latest.

                                                                Their compensation for this mess better be good or I might need to move to bookmaker as my primary and make a statement.

                                                                  When Bovada does come back online I think many will be requesting payouts immediately after this stunt. I might be one of them. That could overload the system again like it did with SBR when everyone was cashing out betpoints..

I randomly cashed out on Tuesday and was going to deposit again with the weekly VIP match and the 75% match bonus but they were down. But you're right, the player fear will cause many to request a payout after this ordeal and Bodog will need to earn the players trust again.
