I just signed up on bodog to trial run it, and so far the process has been amazingly difficult. First of all, just to be able to view the tables, I was bombarded by messsages to deposit. By that I mean, every button I clicked took me to deposit page. Finally I clicked one and got a message to choose my currancy, which I did and it finally stopped pestering me for cash deposit.
When I did try to view tourney lobby afterwards, I got a pop-up telling me to restart. Once I did that I was finally able to browse. I found a free roll, entered, and was dealt pocket rockets for my 1st hand! Wow! But of course they were cracked by a 10/5 off suit with the 10 rivering me. (I was all-in on the turn) 1st hand in 1st tourney elimination.....very ominous.
I also question the tourney listings. I saw another Free-roll for later in the day and wanted to enter, but it disappeared from the list. Should've been on @ 7:05 with registration opening @ 5:05. I checked back around 4:45, & it was gone! I checked every single tab and no luck!
There was also one listed for 9:40 w/ reg opening @7:40. Same thing happened! @ 7:20 it was in the list, but @7:40 -gone. I just so happened to still have the tourney lobby open in my pane and was able to register from there.
Am I doing something wrong or am I just having a "blonde moment"? I'm not new to online poker, have used and understood many a site, but this one is really irritating me with the freeroll cat-n-mouse! I was amazed at the fact that I was able to enter the first freeroll! I even had the thought that they must be filling super-quick, but I was there a few mins Before the tourney was open for registration.
If anyone else plays there and has an tips that could make my play a little smoother, they would be more than welcome
