What are the Different Poker Game Types?
At Bodog Poker, we offer many types of Cash Games and Tournaments that our players can take advantage of at any time.
Cash Games
The Cash Games include the standard games (Texas Hold’em, Omaha, and Omaha Hi/Lo), as well as a “fast fold” game called Zone Poker, where you get new hole cards at a new table as soon as you fold your hand. This allows you to play 2-3 times as many hands per hour as you can play at the regular cash tables. For even more volume, you can play up to two Zone Poker tables at the same time.
For regular Cash Games, the maximum is four tables, and for Tournaments, you can play up to 15 tables at once.
Tournaments
Just like our cash games, the tournaments at Bodog Poker come in three types: Texas Hold’em, Omaha, and Omaha Hi/Lo. There are also three different betting structures: No-Limit, Pot-Limit, and Fixed-Limit. Most of the tournaments on the schedule are No-Limit Hold’em, but you’ll also find Fixed-Limit Hold’em, Pot-Limit Omaha, and both Pot-Limit and Fixed-Limit Omaha Hi/Lo.
For even more variety, you have your choice of different tournament formats at Bodog Poker. Sit-and-Gos are smaller tournaments that start as soon as the required number of people have signed up; it could be just you and another opponent heads-up, or you could join a pool of up to 180 players. There’s also the exciting new Jackpot Sit-and-Go, where you and two other players fight for a prize of up to 1000X your buy-in. For now, the Jackpot Sit-and-Gos are the only tournaments that can be played on your mobile device; just log in at Bodog Mobile Poker and use the web app to play.
Multi-table tournaments (MTTs)
If you’re playing one of the many Multi-table tournaments (MTTs) at Bodog Poker, you have even more options at your fingertips. There are tournaments with extended blind levels and/or deeper starting stacks, giving you more room to make big moves like 5-betting light or bluffing every street post-flop. Or you can speed things up with shorter blind levels by playing a Turbo, Super Turbo or Hyper Turbo. For an extra treat, try playing a Knockout or Super Knockout tournament; every time you knock someone out by taking their stack, you win a cash prize, regardless of how you finish.
With all these different options, there’s a tournament at Bodog Poker for every player, whether you’re at the Micro stakes (buy-ins up to $5) or you’re a High roller ($75 and up). The biggest buy-in events are at the Sunday majors and the annual festivals, but you can qualify for as little as $1 by playing one of the many satellite events on the schedule. And keep an eye out for special freerolls, where you can win cash prizes without having to pay any buy-ins or entry fees.
