I feel like I know what you mean. Sometimes I get on a decent winning streak on BOL and other times I feel like I can see a loss coming when some donk who calls a huge raise with a 10 7 off and hits a full house on the flop. I have seen some gross calls from players shoving or raising with premium hands only to be called with something that any decent poker player would have folded.

Last night I saw a guy get stacked because he raised his AK up preflop to 10x the BB. Guy with 54o flat calls. Flop comes A27, AK shoves and 54o guy calls. Turn is a brick but then 3 hits on the river. So sick. He hit on the river but how does he call the 54o, huge raise in the beginning? Also is it just me or is that a huge gamble with gutshot straight with a shove? Maybe I'm missing something?

Point is I've seen things like this all the time and have been on the bad beat side of this too. Like one guy said above it's variance but to be honest I feel like I can see when it comes. It's like the software is telling you "not today". I'm starting to learn when just not to play. lol Good Luck to you though!

So is it possible to win on BoL through freerolls and run it up and cash out, or do they require a deposit first in order to be able to cash out? I haven't played online poker in a while and thought I heard of that happening(I'm in the USA), albeit I'm not 100% sure if it was BoL and it was at least a year ago I'd imagine.

I built up a bankroll of around $40 playing BOL freerolls, then started playing buy in MTT's for $50-$150 and built up to nearly $600 in 1 month. Then i got a bit overconfident and registered in some $2,500's and $7,500's. Busting on bad beats & tilting resulted in rebuying 7x back to back in 1, all in first hand every rebuy. Needless to say i'm back to trying to build my bankroll from freerolls on bol lol.

I like the amount of SNGs, my game off choice if I can find them. Are the hands truly random, who knows. As on all online sites the betting is truly random, making miracle hands more common, as you don't ordinarily see them. Can never tell what's happening with unregulated online sites, but don't quit your school for it.

There are many factors to consider when playing at any poker table. Just analyze your chances, know when to raise, know when to fold. These miracle hits are just unexperienced players getting lucky.

After reading this topic I've registered on BOl and I can tell you for sure - I play poker for more than 10 years and I haven't seen so many strange winning hands for 2 days as in PokerStars for a year ))

As I understood, BOL doesn't work with credit cards, at least I don't see this option.

Online poker

It seems like all anyone talks about on here are freerolls.. no one discusses any real play. Bol offers a sng challenge where they pay out the top 20 at the middle and end of month with a prize pool of 50k. They also offer rake promotion s for cash play and also offer a 2k tournament for top 100 in mtt leaderboards.
The game of poker is and always has been played with a deck of cards. A computer game is man made mathematical equation. Even what I am writing here is a translation of numbers. In order to learn how to play poker you absolutely need a deck of cards. To do well on line you have to be very very lucky. It’s not designed for you to make money. It is designed for the site to make money. Just like jackpot free rolls they make money on every penny you put in the pot. And the more people they have the more money they get. And the less you know about the game of Texas Hold’em.
The thing about it is you reall need not learn how to play poker. You need to learn about RNG software and find the patterns in them. Online poker is an even field. The Donk is just as likely to win as the pro. If not they would not continue to deposit. It’s funny. Think about it. Why would I as a pro poker player play live if I could do just as well online. There is no reason to play live. Online is tax free unrecorded money.

I can win freerolls all day but once I take my winnings and play cash there it's suckout after suckout. Global poker has been the only new site that plays legit for me.

I have a question regarding Betonline, specifically about their rollover requirements as I have been reading things online and it sounds a bit like a nightmare story which is why I have been so hesitant to desposit.

Apparently according to their Rollover requirements you must rollover your deposit once in the SPORTSBOOK of all places. So even if all I want to do is play poker and I make a $50 deposit, I can't withdraw unless I bet at least $50 in the SportsBook?


Also when you accept a Freeplay, it seems like they completely screw you over, as you need to not only rollover the freeplay value.

"Free plays can only be wagered online via the website or the mobile site. Free play wagers cannot be made through the call center.
All free plays are subject to a minimum 6x rollover requirement or greater based on the terms and conditions of the particular promotion, no exceptions.
It is only the amount that you win from the free play that gets added to your account balance.
The maximum winnings from any single wagered free play bonus is $5,000 or $5,000 cumulative from multiple free play bonus wagers from the same bonus.
NOTE: Unless otherwise specified by an Player Services Representative, when you receive a bonus for making a deposit you must roll over the amount you deposited (plus any fees that BetOnline may have covered), plus the Free Play bonus the specified amount of times. Wagers placed using Free Play do not qualify toward rollover calculation.

For example, if you deposit $1000 and your fees are $15, BetOnline will credit your account the full $1015 + $250 Free Play Deposit Bonus. So, if you have a ten-time rollover assigned for that deposit bonus, you must roll the entire amount (e.g. $1015 + free play) ten times. Thus, to receive a payout without forfeiting anything you won from your bonus, you must first cover the rollover amount (e.g. $1015 + Free Play times ten)."


So basically don't accept any freeplay or bonus then right? Because having to rollover that much would completely block you from withdrawing for a long time. I'm not looking to bet insane amounts of money, just some casual poker playing.

Does anyone have any advice on this or should I choose a different site to play on? I'm a New York resident btw so my options are extremely limited

BetOnline

Hello I am writing this thread looking for some help in just a few people that are winners on BOL. I have been playing on there for a few months maybe 6 (I bit less lately cause it has been during my school semester) and besides getting my account from 100 to around 500 I have dont nothing but what feels like get limited by the cards.it feels like every time I win a bit I lose it right back on some ridiculous hand. I know bad players always feel the cards are against them so I dont want to hear and oh whatever its you I just want to know if there is anyone here consistently getting money from this site. I know it could be me but I ran my initial deposit up in a week and ever since cant seem to do anything without getting knocked back down by the cards
You 100% correct is one thing getting bed beat is another when play don’t make sense at all and with $ amount involved no one would make those calls. Also think it’s 100% scam they give u to win a lil just too take as much as possible later on. I would sujest to stay away I think they running some kind of bots to clean you out after letting you win a little. Those plays just don’t make sense at all and the flops always hits them it’s not getting even coolers ... it’s totally scam.
