Was playing last night had pocket Kings...flop came... but I couldn't
see it. Saw the other players betting/folding... but couldn't see the
cards. Called the bet on the flop, even though I couldn't see the
cards, someone went all-in... folded. Same deal next hand, couldn't see
the community cards... called Bodog, they claim it was a lag. I asked
for a refund of the previous two hands. They claim the lag was on my
end. I asked them why am I able to see the betting, etc. of the other
players, but not the community cards. Basically informed me it was my
problem. Any thoughts?

ive played on bodog for over 3 years
yes the software has some issues
but i've never once had the situation you describe.
where i could see a hand but not the community
my guess is it probably was on your end
the one problem i have there is if i get booted off (wireless connection) which
normally doesn't happen....when i come back.....i can't sit back in. i have to
leave the table
but nothing close to what ur describing

well i take that back, back when they first upgraded it used to take your action
on one table and make that action on another table (when multi-tabling) and
fucked me over a couple times but they eventually fixed it. cant recall any
other problems

Yes. Bodog has the shittiest software in the known universe.
Amazingly, they called this abomination an "upgrade."

I've never used the bodog software, so what follows is an analysis by
analogy to software that I am familiar with.
My guess is that the problem was a memory shortage. Much poker software
builds graphic images in memory, then blts them into place. If it can't get
the video memory to build the images, it fails, so you never see the
elements that it could not build -- in this case, the board cards.
If you are running other graphics software (such as other poker clients) and
video memory has not been released by them, this problem is particularly
likely to arise.
Note that the shortage is specifically video memory; it doesn't matter if
you have 2 gig of on-board memory if you don't have enough video memory, or
if much of what you have is tied up by another client or computer game.
Paradise used to have an "Optimize Graphics" check-box, checked by default,
to allow the prebuilt graphic elements. By unchecking it, you could often
prevent the exact symptoms fuggit is reporting for bodog. If bodog has a
similar option, turning it off might help avoid the reported problem.

You should have disconnected.... that's a perfect example of why
some sites still have all-in protection.
I have experienced comparable probs at bodog, but only while
playing three or more tables. The only prob I've seen in a while is
just a stuck screen, where I can't click anything, sometimes for as
long as thirty seconds.
Increasing the size of your temp files cache should help.

This happened once on BoDog when I had a circa 2000 Compaq low memory computer.
Since getting my Dell have not had it repeat. Their customer service has been
top notch in my book.

My last 4-5 cashouts from Stars have all taken 1-3 days. Sometimes they
will split the cashout into 2 parts, one is instant, the other is 1-3
days, but I've never had 100% of a cashout show up instant.

Once you've cashed out enough to cover all of your deposits, your
subsequent cashouts are instantaneous. At least, my cashouts to
Neteller are.

One example: deposit $50 to play some stupid $33 tourney, win said stupid
tourney. Play for a bit, transfer some to a friend, cash out about $1000.
That cashout took 2 days.

Yes, you still had the outstanding $50 deposit. Your next cashout
should be immediate.

So if I would have cashed out $50, waited 2 days for it to hit Neteller,
the next $950 would have been immediate? I know there's logic in there
somewhere...but I'm missing it.

I suspect that when you have an outstanding deposit, they do some sort
of cursory investigation before cashing out the rest. You know, making
sure there are no transfers that might indicate collusion, etc.
Whatever, I don't know the details and I'm sure the sites don't want
us to.

That's happened to me. The Bodog client uses a ton of CPU cycles. If
you have anything else running on older hardware, it tends to get
behind.
I think they're making a true statement about the lag being on the
client side, but it's at least partly due to their crappy client
software.
