They emailed me a 100% cash up to $500 offer. How generous of them :lmao:
I asked if they were going to make me calculate my own max bet and then confiscate my funds when I bet too big. Their response was:
Hi xxx,

Thanks for contacting Bovada Customer Service.

Please take advantage of the offers we provide for they can be very fun, especially if there is a great turn out.

How hard is it to limit players to what you want them to bet like every other sportsbook on Earth.
Show me a sportsbook that has a sliding wager limit. Go ahead.

If i deposit 50k onto bovada do you really think they want my limits to be the same $250 as the guy who deposited $500 and has a max bet of $250. The limit is relative to the deposit amount which is totally logical. So considering people find loose change in their couch cushions and deposit random numbers like $117 in what world does a sportsbook care enough to have a program designed to personalize limits to every single customer. Terms or service covers them , don't like it don't play there.

My first offshore book was Bovada like 10 + years ago.
Didn't know much at first and realized the odds are so much juiced compared to other major offshore books.
cashed out like 1k and never looked back.
Never understood why so many people played there.

Hello everyone, I am new to the community. I am in the midst of building a platform to help expose the books who put players into bad situations financially in the way they slow-pay or or no pay-you. Also to expose the made-up sportsbook handicappers. I also take on stories and complaints from other legitimate players in a sports club in order to have there stories told. Alot of people don’t have the time or energy to put out and keep up there story of there situation.

To start I am also frustrated with Bovada. They absolutely do bury the bonus rules in the terms and conditions. I will say in terms of the casino bonus they do tell you in what fashion you are allowed to bet. Basically what they say is you have to stick to one game and not bet more then 20% of your deposit value and you should stick to the same betting amount. So basically you wait until the casino odds of winning kick in and drain your bank roll. In real life if you walk into the casino and win $500 in BJ and want to play some slots. That would be cool. But in Bovada and other places that is considered moving from a low weighted game to a high waited game. So to be clear. Pick a game to play. Set your dollar amount to 20% of your deposit and wait until your money is gone. Or pray you hit a jackpot.

But in there defense that is there rule and our warning. So just don’t play in it.

Now with there sports % being 50% of the deposit. That’s a way for them to get people. If they make there rollover 10X the amount then there would not have to be a max bet wager.

I do know of several players who have been paid by Bovada. But eventually they will terminate your account. I am a players who account was suspended after 8 months of not using my account. I found out the person who referred me account had been suspended so I am assuming thats why mine was being I had not made a bet in 8 months with them.

The only way any justice will be served is if people just stop playing. Stop thinking they will be the one to have a good experience. For example I have read countless Bet US complaints. They are tragedy stories yet each search has them as a top book. How is that even possible. I am trying out each sports book one by one. So I know that I am throwing $100 into the river. If I did not know any better I would have gave them my actual business. But this is for my own personal experience.

The ratings given need to be earned honestly by them.

Got one for you.. Guy out of Boston makes a $100 deposit in Bovada. Bets $40 on a game. Wins and gets shut down. No reason. Honestly if you hope to win and get your money just be ready to torture them for your money. Take screenshots of all your transactions. Basically get ready to give up your family and friends time and replace it with a daily nightmare. I can’t imagine how bad a operators job must be
