Durrty Dozen
Twelve players showed up for the Bodog Blogger tournament. the turnout was most likely effected by the difficulties Bodog was experiencing earlier. there were several familiars and a few new "faces". Eight spots paid out (wheeeeeeeeee) with Lightning36 going HU for the title against Patch42. Unfortunately, Lightning ran outta steam and finished in 2nd.
Buddydank mentioned in one of his comments that he was able to fund his Bodog acct using a regular Visa card. So for those of you who wanna give Bodog a shot, you can give that a try. Just make sure you create a rakebreak acct (25% rakeback) and follow their instructions before you create your Bodog id.
after the tournament, i opened three 100max cash tables and promptly doubled up on two of them. some guy pushed to my reraise on the turn with a pair and OESD. My TPTK held. then, i flop a set of 7's vs. QQ and get paid on a J high flop. Later, i get some guy to push into my AA with QQ on a 5 high flop and turns a 2-outer. can't win 'em all. but, happy with my play.

If you deposit with a credit card on bodog you have to fax them 18 million forms to make a withdrawal! I deposited $50 on there once just to prove my friend wrong and completely screwed myself!
same deal at Mansion. but, you got your money.
Thanks for getting the word out on this one. I forgot about it until I read your blog earlier in the day.
There would have been 13 players if Bodog allowed Canadian players.
Hey Smokkee, you don't think its a bit shoddy that Bodog is only offering like $250 in bonuses and making it a buy-in tournament ($10) for all the free advertising they hope to get from the tourney? I'm not referring to your site, just the general idea that compared to some other promos ran (FT's BBT involvement, Stars' Blogger tournament), it seems like a shoddy deal. Maybe I'm just being too critical though.
I was not able to deposit with my Visa. Any other ideas Smokee? It's really stupid they don't allow transfers or else I'd trade ya some PS money for Bodog money.
