the chat has an option to deactivate, or you can simply ignore it, it does not bother meIn the latest update it appears Bovada/Bodog/Ignition has removed the ability to chat at any of it's tables. Instead you can send pre-made messages to chat such as "wow!" and "Zzzzzzz" or have a selection of 6 emojiis to choose from to express yourself.
Anyone else seeing this? Thoughts?
How can anyone say it makes no difference to use chat or not? Bovada taking away the chatbox with pre-made messages completely ruins the advantage of being able to influence opponents' decisions by talking to them and getting into their heads. Chatting in poker is a huge tool to use to influence play. Even shit talking has its effects by causing some players to tilt and play more aggressively towards you. Taking away the chat box is an awful decision on Bovada's part.
