I am a semi-professional Texas Hold 'Em poker player who has won roughly $50, 000 in tournaments in live play, and $80, 000 on PokerStars before it was shut down in the U.S. I know this doesn't touch the level of those with a bracelet, but It is inconceivable that suddenly my net gain on Bovada is negative over roughly 10 years. Like most who play a lot, including in the WSOP, I hate the lack of identifying Avatars, the ability to locate Bots, and independent verification that your card randomizers are true-odds poker. I could go on at great lengths. But as a math wizard who can calculate pot-odds very quickly, and a journalist with a built-in BS detector, both which gives me an significant long-term advantage in the big tournaments that go 12, 15 hours, I get no advantage at Bovada. The opposite, actually is true. I will go many hands to set up 90% winning opportunities head-to-head; that's how I have won all my tournaments. On Bovada, those 2-outer draws hit routinely, and that is always how I get eliminated. When you hit a set on the flop, the Bots don't fold flush draws, and they hit the 1-in-16 runner-runner flush on the turn and river to beat big-time trips, K-K-K, and so on, over and over. I'm not whining about bad beats. I'm saying there is something not right at Bovada.
