Bodog Traffic and Games Overview

In order to preserve the room's ecology, Bodog implemented a few features like:

  • Anonymous tables - players' usernames or aliases are not visible at the tables, instead of those, only the word "player" and a seat counter is displayed;
  • Hidden full tables - the tables where all seats are occupied are not visible in the lobby;

In Bodog you can't choose the cash tables. You can only choose the game type (Holdem / Omaha Hi / Omaha Hi-Lo), the limit (No Limit / Pot Limit / Fixed Limit) and the table type (2max / 6max / 9max) and you will be randomly seated to the tables with available seats. The maximum number of cash tables you can play at once is 4.

This policy has both a positive and a negative impact, because it rejects some regular players who want to know as many details as possible about the traffic, which increases the fish vs regular ratio, attracting new professional players. This also makes bumhunting more difficult.

Bodog Poker is the 7th largest room from the players’ traffic point of view in 2018. The traffic peak is during evenings, EST time (GMT-4), when you will find tables up to 2K NL ($10/$20).

The most action is at NLHE mid-stakes, with 20 tables up to 100 NL, 30 tables of 100 NL – 600 NL and 10 tables of 1K NL – 2K NL.

The maximum stake for HU tables is 400 NL.

The PLO traffic is a bit lower, mostly with 10 tables up to 100+ PLO, but in the evenings you will find tables up to 1000 PL ($5/$10).

Also available is a fast poker version named Zone with tables up to 500 NL ($2/$5).

All games are played in USD currency.
