Bodog poker site

I just got an email from them giving me $5 in casino chips. Does anyone know if you can play poker with those chips or do you have to play casino games? And if I can play poker...they have not shown up in my ecash yet...how do I transfer them?

No, you cannot use them in the sportsbook or the poker room, only the casino. I got the same e-mail and it said this in the fine print, and if I'm not mistaken you have to win a certain amount of $$ before those winnings can be used elsewhere in bodog, too.

I took my $5 to the casino and played it, and I know that the "free money" is supposed to be an incentive to get you to want to keep going back, but it acted just the opposite in my case. I couldn't imagine depositing my own money to play those slot machines or even the blackjack. Maybe some of y'all will have some great experiences there to make me not think it seems fishy?

I played my $5 'gift' - quickly. It only worked to show me too just how fast I could lose any cash deposit in their casino. Try any online casino and I think you'll find the same result. I've tried one that has slots for play money and it was constant reload, reload, reload. Wonder how they think this would encourage me to deposit any real money ...

I neve rplay online casinos.
Well I have played them but only with the free no deposit chips they give you.
Most of them if not all are only good for the casino and not the poker rooms or sportsbooks.
