Bodog Poker Software

Software Summary

Bodog Poker offers full-feature software that runs fast and smooth, with good playability and lots of options to customize your playing experience.

Among other things, it allows you to take notes on the opposition during play and the lobby supplies vital table statistics like the viewed-flop percentage and average pot. During play, you can see your own statistics as well - for example how often you see the flop, your win percentage and more.

The Bodog Poker software supports play at three tables simultaneously, with the player always seated at the center. The software also supports play at all tables in either full size or mini view, something that can be very helpful when playing more than one table.

The graphics are clean and classy, and offer a good range of customization with the player being able to choose color and brightness of the tables. Quite unique is the fact that Bodog Poker no longer uses the classic "table" design; instead, you get the feeling of "floating" on a big red carpet.

It seems that players either love it or hate it. One cool feature is the option to watch a mini view of a specific table while simultaneously browsing around in the lobby.

In addition, during a hand your cards will be shown (but only to you) even after you have folded so you can see whether you would have hit the nuts on the river.

Also new as of Aug. 2008 are resizable tables, a full screen mode and more detachable windows.

Players can now drag the lower right corner of the table to adjust the size to whatever they want and can detach, resize and move the windows for chat, statistics, notes, profiles, tournament info and game details.

As well, all sounds and animations can be turned on or off in the software settings which is very good. Be aware that the default setting is such that a player must post the blinds manually when opening a new table.

Overall, the software is very playable, has nice graphics and offers a great playing experience.

Statistics

Data and statistics functions in Bodog Poker's software allow players to take notes on their opponents during play. Players can create custom player profiles and "tag" players for easy and visible grading of their opposition.

In the lobby, players can find vital table statistics such as viewed-flop percentage and average pot size. During a hand, players can see statistics of their own play, including how often a player sees the flop, the win percentage and more.

Multi-Table

The latest version of Bodog Poker's software supports play at three tables simultaneously where the player is always seated in the middle.

Players can view all three tables in the same screen and actually play the mini view tables while having one main game up on the big screen, or play all with all the windows full size as most sites offer.

Multi-table play is easy and smooth and works well with the statistics tools available. One thing to keep your eye on while playing several tables at once is the amount of money shown in the main window.

The amount does not automatically update, but you can refresh it manually - something that PokerListings highly recommends.

Graphics

Bodog Poker offer graphics that are clean and classy. They move fast without using too much computer power. However, the look of the tables and the feel of the game is a little different, something that players may want to be aware of before playing.

The sleek and clean graphics are appreciated by many players and make for faster than usual play, which affects the amount of hands dealt per hour. Most players think the speed is a good thing, but this also means the time a player has to act is shorter than on some sites.

Unique to the site is it no longer uses the classic "table" design; instead players get the feeling of "floating" on a big carpet of felt in the color of choice (a new design about which PokerListings has received various judgments).

The look is swanky and different. Some like it, some hate it, but what remains true is that Bodog Poker always tries to stay ahead of the pack.

Special Features

Bodog Poker has few groundbreaking special features, but its standard features are very useful. The most interesting is after a hand is folded, the owner of the hand can still see his hole cards and learn if his move was correct in the end.

There are also some nifty features like turning animations on and off and using a four-colored deck. Overall, the software is solid and offers a little extra for players wanting to customize it.
