Played 3/6 full ring last night at bodog and everybody on there was good. and i dont mean just good preflop hand selection good- im talkin about people arguing about pot odds and completing the small blind with stuff like 57s.
Is online limit really becoming this tough?

Nothing happened, you just obviously suck at table selection

The average player at Bodog is MUCH better than the average player at FTP or Stars.

Add to that no pokertracker and HUDs and you can only play 3 tables at once and there is just no reason to play there anymore

I'm seeing it tighten up too. Not sure if it's variance or if something is really going on.

It's not the bodog of a few months back, they are blind stealing nit fests these days, the mid level NL games are anyway.

They stopped advertising in the U.S, plus there are a ton of RB receiving Party refugees clogging up the tables.

Bodog is dead.

i disagree.

my winrate in the lower-level sng's is about the same as it has been for months...

maybe a slight bit tighter, but for every table where there's 8 people left at 100/200, there's one that's in the money at 50/100...

since when is discussing pot-odds at the table a sign that the players are good?

And if it was an argument about 75s than I'm guessing there was one guy who thought it was a good idea and another who thought it was a bad idea.

Has anyone seen the updated pokertracker? The one that includes support for Bodog ring games? It might have something to do with it.

was going to make a post similiar to this, but i'll just quote it instead.

Fish ponds, on smaller sites, dissappear when you can PT and HUD them
