Re: bodog is such a joke (with a screen shot)
The problem with going to a high-variance game is $1000 is probably a lot to the OP (as it is to me), he can't try and sticky it by making a $10000 bet or something, since he can't afford to lose $1k. Although that's obviously insanely +EV
There's really nothing he could have done realistically, if he goes on a chip dumping rampage, they'll see he's not playing legit. If he tries to make a run at highest limits / tries to sticky this and loses, they'll just take the losses out of his $1000, and even if he wins they may take it back. If he does a transfer, they'll reverse it. So the OP is smart if he first thought of the above then decided on calling up support and hoping for a reward. He's stupid if calling support was his first reaction.

If they are not naturally a theif, then you have just compounded you culpability by corrupting an otherwise good person. Oh, and stealing from someone because they can afford it? Uhm...honestly, if that's how you think, then, nothing anyone can say will get through to you (until someone does it to YOU). OP did what was right. End of story.

I think ripping off a not-for-profit site is pretty much the lowest of the low, but when it comes to a profit making organization like BODOG then I'd be quite glad they got ripped off (even if it wasn't me benefiting from the money). They should either spend some of their huge profits on protecting themselves from this or suffer the consequences. The day they spend every cent of their profit is the day I'll say I'd be sad to see them get ripped off. Juk [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [/ QUOTE ] Lol, ripping off a non-profit site? I'm pretty sure the poker room was their venus fly trap to get people hooked on sports gambling. I believe that was their idea behind it.

Re: bodog is such a joke (with a screen shot)
OP could just go sit in a legitimate high-limit table and splash around. Bodog couldn't void the play of that game because there were legit other players in the hands. Just make sure one of the guys is your friend and that you lose some money to him; don't specifically "dump" to him, just play badly and lose money to everyone at the table and he'll get some of it.
In the past when people's accounts have been hacked, money lost in "legitimate play" is never creditted back because the sites say they can't void the hands.
