Bodog Fishing Grounds

How are the micro stakes here?

I know back in the day when I played here they were the softest out there. I'm looking for a place to move a chunk of my money. I would probably be playing in $10 MTT and playing NL$25 or $50.

Would bodog be a good place to move it or would absolute be better?

Don't know about absolute, but bodog has gotten a bit tougher over the last few months due to the introduction of dwhg, pokeracehud, and poker tracker to its landscape. but there are still a lot of players there who wouldnt know what those terms mean, because they come from the sports book. So it's soft but not as soft at low limits.

However as you go up I think it gets tougher quick, either that or I suck, as I've been killing 10nl for 34bb/100 and 25nl for 16bb/100 over ~60k hands but can't successfully move up to 50nl- im looking at -10 bb/100 up there (these are not PTBB's). Actually my results at 100nl have been better.

I don't know much about bodog, but absolute is rigged.

If you play at Bodog, don't expect to see a payout in any reasonable amount of time. 'Stosh

Bodog used to be "soft" but now with pokertracker/pokerace hud, it is same as the other sites and maybe worse. I say worse because there are so few tables to choose compared to other sites. Also, it takes 4-6 weeks to get your money.

I would try absolute due to the bonus whores leaving and the bad beat jackpots. Probably softest site around now for US players.

Bodog with rakeback is better for sure. But they don't pay rakeback on tourneys so you may want to hit AP for tourneys.

So does that mean Bodog saves your hands to your hard drive now?

Still nothing better than Bodog from 10pm-3am on an NFL Sunday night.
