There are plenty of US players here! Most don't care for the changes made to Bovada but we still have tourneys there weekly. I will look into this MTT, I may play.

To be perfectly honest, you alienated a large amount of your loyal poker players with the recent changes to the site. A large amount have simply gone to other sites with a better business model.

There are other ways you could deny information gathering by tracking sites and HUD use. Anonymous tables are a joke, and it's no surprise that your site traffic is dropping like a stone because of it.

I'm discouraged and unmotivated in general towards all the online poker sites. I'm happy Bovada is available to USA players, but liked the crappy bodog software more than the current one. I will play some of the BDPO events as they probably will have sweet overlay. I stopped playing cash games despite them running their best cash game promo I've seen in recent years with the 4day per week bonus up to 30 bucks - so lame compared to the heyday of stars and tilt, but a little cheese for the mice to chew on each week.

I only been playing the cardschat private games on Bovada although right now I'm in the 100k guaranteed - via the ticket I won in a cc game last month. I know I can't prove it, but I'm #337 right now and will brag later when I go deep. I guess i could post a screeny of my table with my holecards being shown by #337. I'll do that later when I'm headsup for the dough cuz I know PokerOrifice will think I'm lying:cool:

......brag when i go deep....... 742 entered now 106 players left with 99 paid $250 all the way up to 21k. I haven't played online poker for this long in months. Over 4 hours now. I'm treating this game like play money because withdrawals are shady and the site can shut down at any given moment. I had a top 10 stack with 300 players left but took a black eye with TT vs QQ. Then hung around 20bbs for over an hour. Got down to 10bbs sitting in the bb of 1600 with 16k behind and the sb open shoves. I have AQ with 15 players to go to the money and double up. I don't give a crap about mincashing this baby, I want that big score. One time!!!

KoRn, I highly doubt that BovadaReg had anything to do with the site changes you mention. Per his CC name he is a Bovada Regular not a Bovada Representative. :)

I don't know though...they seem kind of "reppish" to me. ;) lol

But Korn pretty much summed up my feeling for playing on Bovada.
