Deposit Bonus Information:
Bodog offer an unlimited permanent 20% deposit bonus on all deposits. It clears fairly slowly at 1/2 (although faster at higher levels).The great thing about it is that it works out to be a 200% rakeback on tournaments. Basically they are paying YOU the admin fee on every tournament you enter!

You must clear all the bonus before withdrawing or you get none.

Bodog - home of the bottomless deposit bonus! Bodog are one of the internet's bigger sportsbooks, and like everyone else, they have opened a poker room. They are also home to the 2006 WSOP champion Jamie Gold.

The players aren't as soft in general as most sportsbook rooms because the quality of the software has attracted quite a few sharks. Still, there's always the usual pack of maniacs and idiots to be found.

The Bodog software is generally above average. It runs quickly and smoothly. It looks very good and the avatars are pretty sweet. Multitabling is very easy, and the blinds go up slowly in SNGs (both of these favour the better players). On the down side, it is difficult to keep track of how long to go on each blind level in a SNG - you know it's pretty good software when that's one of my major gripes.

Customer support is very quick - I typically have answers to my questions in 15 minutes or half an hour and the answers are easy to understand and cover all my problems.

Bodog also offer a lot of rather pleasant guaranteed tournaments that usually require a bit of topping up from the site - more free money!

Overall, Bodog is a good room and I see it growing quickly with the combination of getting players from their sportsbooks and their great software and customer service.
