I hate it! just my opinion there are some players there that are not real and it seems as if everyhand there are 2 or 3 better than average hands out!

Fishead,

I almost hate to give out this info, but Bodog n/l tables are the best. Download the software and just watch it yourself. Every night you will run into at least several players who are just complete predictable maniacs who will go all in with rubbish, like top pair or gutshot draws. I think most of the people on Bodog are sports bettors who must've learned how to play poker watching ESPN and don't really understand the game. They have more n/l games going on than limit, which is strange, but I think it supports the theory that they are getting newbie fish players who only no poker as no-limit from tv.

Another good thing about them is the 10% bonus you get if you deposit with instacheck. You get that bonus instanly, and it's available for you to use at the tables imnmediately after you deposit. Only thing is if you request a withdrawal, you have to wait about 5-7 business days for the "check" to clear. You also have to earn enough bonus points from raked hands to withdraw the bonus, but it's one of the easier ones out there and I clear it with no problem.

One thing to remember is , you will suffer some ridicuosly bad beats there, but in the long run you can't possibly lose since their play is so bad, so don't get all fustrated and give up when it happens to you.

I also forgot to add one reason why the players may be so loose is being sports bettors, maybe they just won a lot of money so are just throwing it around? Or maybe they just lost a lot of money on some games and are now on tilt trying to win it back?

All I know is that NO LIMIT is turning into a silver mine for me on the internet.

It refers to the Disconnection protect. If you are disconnected or just simply choose not to make a decision, then your hand is folded if you are at a no all in table. If you are at another table that allows all in's then you will simply be "in" for wherever you left the table. Many people consider this cheating, as do I.

Example: The guy goes all-in for 500 and now the action is on you. Yu have already committed 200 to the pot and you are not sure what to do. You decide to let the time run out. If you are at a "no all in" table your hand is folded and you lose. If yu are at a "all in" table, then they turn over the cards and the best hand wins.

Sitting at the "All in allowed" Just gives the player that option, if he chooses to do so. The play is no different at either table, it just gives you that extra bit of protection. I mean if we are having bad weather here (like every summer day) and there is a chance the electric may go out, then it is a good idea to play at a table that allows it. It sucks when you have a good hand and you are pot committed and the power goes out and your hand is folded.

From the Web site:

ALL-IN

When a player puts the last of their chips into a pot, that player is said to be all-in. An all-in player is not eligible to win any money bet above their final bet. The excess part of the bet is either returned to the bettor, or used to form a side pot with another player or players who matched the amount bet. There is no limitation on the number of side pots. However, the all-in player will be eligible for the main pot, and therefore cannot be forced from the hand.

Sometimes a player has enough chips to continue betting or calling but has been disconnected and unable to respond. In this case the player is also deemed to be "all-in" for all the amount of chips he has bet on this particular hand. If this happens repeatedly, it probably means your Internet connection is poor. We therefore recommend that you stop playing for a while, and wait until your Internet connection improves.

If a player failed to act within the allotted time (usually 30 seconds) while being connected, the hand is folded and a corresponding message sent to a player by email explaining the system action.

NO ALL-IN TABLES

These tables are identified by the words "no all-in" in parentheses after a table name. These tables do not provide the all-in protection described in the section above. If you disconnect from a no all-in table, you are given extra time to reconnect. But if you are unable to respond after that extra time, your hand will be folded. If you have a poor or unreliable Internet connection, we recommend that you don't play at the no all-in tables.

i see ..

the " no all in " is all about your connection . has nothing to do with making your bets as the game is going on..

thanks.
