Loading...Game Variety (7)
Bodog Poker has excellent game variety and offers all variations of Texas Hold'em, Omaha, Omaha Hi-Lo, Seven-Card Stud, Seven-Card Stud Hi-Lo, and Five-Card Stud. The relatively large player base ensures action at all varieties of poker, making Bodog Poker a great site for most players. The games vary between No-Limit, Pot-Limit, and Fixed-Limit. Full-table games, short-handed, and heads-up tables are all available. The games are concentrated in No-Limit Hold'em and, in particular, at the small and middle limits.
Ring Game Traffic (6)
Traffic at Bodog Poker is very decent and growing quickly. There are always several games at all stakes up to $10/$20 in No-Limit Hold'em and up to $30/$60 for Limit Hold'em. Bodog Poker has peak cash-game traffic of 2,400 real-money players at peak hours (November 2008).
Soft Competition (7)
The traffic is at its greatest at the lower stakes and the games vary from standard to very loose, frequently with a viewed-flop percentage reaching upwards of 50%-60%. This translates to juicy and loose games for the small-stakes player. In addition, you can normally find quite profitable No-Limit Hold'em games up to the $5/$10 limits.
Rake (5)
The rake at Bodog Poker is on par with the industry average at 5%, with a $3 maximum rake at any game. There is a "no flop, no drop" policy, allowing pots where there is no flop seen to be rake free. The rake varies depending on the number of players at the table, meaning for example heads-up play drops less rake per hand than a full table.
