I'm doing the Mansion free bet thing and I'm looking for a sportsbook to hedge with. BoDog looks like a good choice since they offer a 10% bonus and everyone on FTR seems to think their NL games are soft. A couple of questions...

1) Is the bonus relatively easy to clear? I'm going to deposit $600 so I'll have $60 in bonus money and I plan to play 0.25/0.50 NLHE. Anyone have experience with this?

2) How is the software? Easy to multi-table? It looks like PT and PAHUD don't support BoDog which kind of sucks.

(Eric: I read the FTR reviews and they were helpful, just want to get some more current opinions )

bonus is ok to clear, not great but not bad.

I think its max 3 tables, but the games are ultra soft, and i mean soft.
Software was ok from what i saw.
I know nothing of their sportsbook

You need to contribute to the rake to accrue points, but at 50NL it ought to clear pretty easy. Much easier/less painful than Ongame IMHO if you need a comparison. You also earn a point per table hour which helps a lot.

Software is bare bones (there's not even a graphic of a table or chairs. Just 9 boxes floating in a ring with cards and chips flying into the middle) but pretty quick and servicable. And you are correct-- no poker tracker/office support.

FYI - Paradise has a sportsbook too - www.sportsbook.com I think. That's where I did the hedge - $500 max bet though.

Bonus is easy to clear. They only offer full ring for 50 nl and at certain times of the day, im convinced the game is impossible to beat without running white hot. (Becuase they basically always raise the flop or float and raise the turn while pots are still like 3 or 4 ways which makes variance SUPER high.)

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.
