The tremendous success of the Bodog brand began in 1994 when founder Calvin Ayre established Bodog in Antigua. Since then, Bodog has grown into a gigantic leader in the online gaming industry. Bodog Poker, has been run by the Morris Mohawk Gaming Group of Kahnawake in Quebec since a 2007 licensing agreement offered the MMGG exclusive rights to operate their online gaming business under the Bodog brand in North America.
Geared toward players who simply enjoy gambling,
Bodog Poker provides players with a fun and relaxing atmosphere in which to
play online poker. Bodog employs a multi-lingual customer service staff readily prepared to handle any issue that a Bodog player may encounter, via phone or email. A clear and simple loyalty
reward system, a potential 110% sign-up bonus, and numerous
online poker promotions make Bodog Poker that much more inviting to online poker players.
The welcome bonus offered by Bodog Poker pays off immediately with a 10% instant bonus credited to the player's account within half an hour of making their first deposit. As the player earns Bodog Poker Points in real money
online poker games, they can potentially acquire a total of up to 110% of their first deposit over the next 60 days, depending on how many poker points they obtain within the specified time limit.
Bodog Poker's loyalty system allows patrons to trade in their poker points for cash. Up to $250 a month can be made by players who exchange their poker points at Bodog Poker. Every 100 poker points is equivalent to one dollar, which is awarded in the form of a bonus. Standard Bodog Poker rollover rules apply to the bonuses players earn with their Bodog Poker Points.
Players looking to build up their bankroll have two chances every day with the Bodog Poker daily
freerolls. Each of the freeroll tournaments offer a guaranteed $1.100 prize pool, and allow players to re-buy and add-on at $1 each in the first hour and five-minute break of the tournament.
The weekly $100K guaranteed tournament runs every Sunday. Players can win a seat in the $150+$12 online poker tournament for as little as $1 playing the daily $100K guaranteed tournament qualifiers. Bodog Poker also hosts qualifiers with poker point buy-ins ranging from 750 points to 1000 points.
An innovative and highly customizable poker client gives Windows users secure and stable access to all of the Bodog Poker cash games and
online poker tournaments. An instant-play
flash poker room is also available, offering access to the Texas Hold'em cash games. The downloadable Bodog Poker client, however, is required to play tournaments and other poker forms such as
Omaha and
7 Card Stud.
An
online poker room with the recreational gambler in mind, Bodog Poker appeals mainly to casual online poker players. Most of the player traffic is drawn to the small stakes, No Limit Texas Hold'em games. Limiting the software support to having a maximum of four tables open at once dissuades most sharks from viewing Bodog as a viable feeding ground. While the games are predominately soft and loose, especially at the lower limits, many grinders simply do not have the patience to play only a few
online poker tables at once. Bodog Poker, therefore, is ideal for new online
poker players, or recreational players who do not wish to juggle more than a few tables at once.
