Decided to whore Bodog (of all places  ), and I thought I'd let you guys know how it went:
Basically Bodog is a small poker room which is part of a larger sports betting site (see FTR review). They offer a 10% deposit bonus, but my main reason for whoring there was to get a free Poker-Tracker license (which is ironic because PT isn't compatible with Bodog). All I had to do was play 100 raked hand and earn 100 Bodog points while playing nl 0.25-0.50. It didn't take me more than a couple of hours of 2-tabling--not difficult at all (the cash deposit bonus took a lot longer before I could withdraw).
Unfortunately I didn't manage to earn much money by playing. Through a combination of bad beats and bad play on my part I ended up showing only a slight profit. I think the extreemly loose play at Bodog, as compared to UB, threw me off. I just didn't adjust my game enough. Flop percentages of 50 to 60 seem to be the norm, sometimes up to 70%, even on full NL 0.25-0.50 games. If someone raise 4xBB preflop he would often get 4-5 callers, and no-one seemed to consider the size of the pot when betting. I feel I should have been able to make a lot more money there.
Still, I think it was worth it, a PT license is worth $55, and I would recommend anyone interested in getting pt for free to do the same.
hint: pt link page, sounds like a synonym of snot (please don't ban me from ftr for writing this  )
Does anyone else have any thoughts/experience from Bodog? I'm going back to UB for a while, to clear their new $100 redeposit bonus (expires 17 March), but after that I guess I'll give Bodog another try.

It's always nice to get such an overwhelming response...
Would it help if I posted some pix of scantily clad women?:
This Brazilian hottie knows jiu-jitsu and could kick the crap out of any of your avatar chix 
(I'm not endorsing Bodog, btw, I think there are better poker rooms)

lol...NOW I get a response...
btw, I have to add that it is taking forever to cash out of Bodog. They promised to pay out within 48 hour, but then they emailed me saying there is a problem with the bonus and that my withdrawal was on hold. I replied: there should be no problem, I followed their rules. So, finally I got another email saying OK, I'm right, and they will send the money to my Neteller account ASAP. But I still haven't gotten my money.
