Bodog Poker is a widely know growing poker room. In the past couple years it has really expanded to be something poker players want to check out and keep coming back to. It got its start in 1995 with its poker room penning in 2004 it now offers 5 million guaranteed monthly tournaments. The graphics are strong with plenty of useful features. The software is definitely the most impressive part of this site. The software is unique and unlike any other poker room out there. The tournaments offered are only average and could use some improvement. Bodog Poker accepts players from all over the world including the U.S. The site attracts a lot of beginners so the competition is terribly soft. No matter what you might be looking for you are sure to find it at least a little of it here at Bodog Poker. Your perfect game is waiting for you.

Software
The software at Bodog is one of the best in its class if not the best. It is unbelievably fast. Actually crazy fast. It runs smooth with no glitches. It is what every online poker player asks for. Navigating the site is as easy as one two three. The graphics are great and the features are endless. The Bodog software offers you valuable statistics from the lobby such as pre flop percentages which is huge when making your decision to call or fold. Average pot sizes are also viewed from the lobby to see how big the pots are getting in what games. Bodog offers a mini view of the lobby while playing at the table which is one of the coolest things I have seen in online poker rooms. The only bad part of this software is that you can only play three tables at one time. Where at most other poker rooms you can play up to six. Upping the multi table play would definitely make this site better to play at. Other than that the software is more than satisfactory. If you are looking for speed and reliability in your software, Bodog is for you.

Tournaments
Bodog offers a good variety of tournaments including a 100,000 guaranteed tournament every Sunday at 4 o’clock eastern time. Buy in for $100 and try out your skill against some hungry players. Or take a stab at the multi table tournament ranging in buy ins from one dollar to several hundred. Sit n go’s are available 24/7, freerolls, Bodog poker point tournaments and qualifying tournaments. Finding a game with players is never a challenge with traffic being around 9,000 real money players sitting at the tables during peak hours. Whether you are a beginner or an old pro you should be able to find the tournament you are looking for. Bodogs tournaments are not the best out there but they provide enough to keep players coming back. In my opinion this is an area I think could use a little improvement.

Competition
Looking for a tight game of poker where people play by pot odds and fold when they have garbage? Look elsewhere. Bodog is filled will loose players who will call your big raise and crack your pocket kings with 5 2. Beware, be patient and hope you don’t sit at a table with all 5 2 players. Higher stake games will have more selective players and provide you with a tighter game.
