Bovada is a great site to play on. Lots of fish and maniac gamblers that build up money betting Sportsbook and have fun playing poker. Cashouts are the best in the U.S. from my experience and what everyone on 2+2 says as well.
Like someone said, not having an auto top-off feature sucks and anonymous play takes some time to get used to, but overall you can crush the soft games there if you are a decent player. My study group community, microgrinder.com has several Bovada Regs in it if you if you're interested in chatting strategy with us.
People say they see crazy stuff happen on Bovada and insane irregular play that makes no sense. That is because there are so many fishy gamblers on the site. In the short-term variance can suck if they suckout, but in the long-run they fuel the game and your
bankroll.
