Bodog is a solid book ... I just do not understand why they decided to exclude non-US players from bodog.com by offering that crappy Bodog.co.uk rubbish site.
This is pathetic... what have you got against the rest of the world taht youa re only interested in Americans.Comment -
Becky wins thread.Comment -
Interesting thread is interesting.Comment -
Becky FTW!Comment -
Becky - why are you not accepting non US clients for Bodog.com?
Bogod.co.uk is a pathetic site.Comment -
Let me explain- "Bodog" is a group of Brand Licensees, so each site has different owners and only has right to certain geographical areas under their contracts:
-MMGG owns&operates the US facing Bodog.com
-Bodog Europe owns&operates the Euro facing Bodog.co.uk and the Canadian facing Bodog.ca
-Haydock Entertainment owns&operates the Asian facing Bodog88.com
This structure is not going to change…its like a franchise model to put it into simpler terms.
Does this make sense? If not, let me know!
BeckyComment -
No it doesnt make sense... becuase I will never use Bodog.co.uk & I will use Bodog.com any time... so Bodog lost out.Comment -
Becky, how can I deposit from Israel?"I have never seen a wild thing feel sorry for itself. A little bird will fall dead, frozen from a bough, without ever having felt sorry for itself."

I havent played with bodog sportsbook in a while but i play their daily freeroll poker from time to tme.Comment -
I am fine with Bodog in the last few months....fast payout to moneybookers, nice offers, improved live betting....cannot say that they are my favourite bookie, but they improved a lotComment -
The lines are not the same ... if you are not from the USA you will be redirected to Bodog.co.uk,which is pathetic.Comment -
I'll bite my tongue on this one. Chew them a new a**hole Bodog. Maybe if the kid sold Tupperware he would understand.Comment -
They are completely different companies, and they cater specifically to the market they are targeting. So no, the lines are not the same. Where are you located? I'll tell you which bodog licensee you signed up for. All anyone has to do is type in "Bodog.com" into their browser and they will be re-directed to the appropriate bodog licensee (Bodog.com, Bodog.ca, Bodog.co.uk or Bodog.88) based on their IP address.Comment -
I just want to point out that the Brand licensee you are playing with (Bodog.ca run by Bodog Europe from Antigua) is not the same one (Bodog.com run by MMGG from Kahnawake) that had that minor dispute with the guy that eventually admitted he was past posting wagers. Maybe you didn't realize this...Comment -
Do you actually believe the pile of crap your superiors tell you, or is posting this nonsense just part of your job?
What book do South American residents get to play at?Comment -
Becky How many Clients will the new bodog poker net work have,will they be through Europe facing sportsbooks and does this JustinR character at 2+2 really a part of bodog and when will we see the network up and runningComment -
Becky, Bodog.co.uk are not good for me... I want bodog.com ... listen to yr clients for a change.Comment -
It's not a question of believing- I know each licensee personally, I speak with them often, and I have been to every office apart from Haydock Entertainment's office in Manila, but I will be going there next month.
Regarding South America, no bodog branded operator is targeting South America just yet, but this is something that bodogbrand.com is working on. That was a good question though, there are quite a few people who believe we will see the emergence of South America as a more significant market in 2010.

The network is scheduled to be up and running in late 2010, JustinR is the official Bodog Representative on 2+2 Poker Forums (thank you for asking), and for more information about BodogNetwork and what type of operators they would like to join the network, check out BodogNetwork.com and Poker News Daily's interview with Patrik Selin, the CEO of Bodog Network.
Let me know if you have any more questions,

bodog is reliable. They had there own MMA tv show that was on spike tv I believe. They have the 2006 poker tournament champion Jamie Gold, also that guy from the reality tv show survivor. From my understanding read a couple of years ago is that their net worth is a billion dollar. So no need to worry of them stealing your money.Comment -

Becky darling ... tell me how I can gain access to bodog.com as a non US resident?
must be a way ... there must be a way to get a special permission toaccess bodog.com if I sign a document that I m not interested in dogs.co.uk or something.Comment -
have heard two bodog commercials on sports station last 2 days....Comment -
Becky, How do I make a deposit in you?
Comment -
Bodog.co.uk is the site on which you will be playing if you are located in Israel, and deposit methods should be listed on the site. However, you should absolutely not have to pay for a phone call to CS, so if you can PM me your phone number and a good time to call, I will have someone from CS call you so you can sort things out. Cool?
BeckyComment -
Nice job Becky answering all these questions

Bodog has always paid me. 6 years and going strong. Some rocky periods of slow pay and bad checks due to legal issues but, they always reimbursed me for fees and even a few dollars more.
Customer service is an 800 number and you only hit 2-3 buttons and wait 2-3 rings before they answer. This is 24/7. Never a problem. Also, they email you back answers to your email questions within 15 minutes or at least give you a status.
Now late lines sometimes, especially for first halfs I can live with. The horsebook pays back 3 percent on all weekly wagers (win or lose) and roll over is only once so I like that. You can bet right up to post.
Easy interface, lines do tend to favor underdogs and that can be appealing.
Lower and higher limits are no problem for my style.
I can deposit via a major credit card (not saying which) no problem 99 percent of the time, verification was not a problem.
If I ask for a payout on Sat/Sun, I always get a FedEx check Thursday morning. ALWAYS
Have done Moneygram once and was paid back in Moneygram real quick. Wish we could go back to ACH checking and electronic debit deposits/withdrawls but it's not their fault.

Bodog is back. I believe this. If you send them $1000, it will be prefectly safe. They are to be tusted. I have had my issues with them in the past, but they are good now. Just got $330 payout from them this week. took 1 day to get check.Comment
