Bodog is finally opening a Canadian website (www.bodog.ca) for their Canadian, and others, customers. The Bodog brand is one of the leading brands for US players and soon to be Canadians featuring an online casino, poker room, sportsbook and race book.

Founded in 1994, Bodog has its head office, and is licensed in, the Caribbean nation of Antigua.

For Canadians, they will need to go to Bodog Canada (visit Bodog.ca) to open an account. The Bodog.com main website will not accept Canadian-based players. The payment methods available for Bodog Canadian players will include credit cards and UsemyBank (www.usemybank.com). Both of which are extremely easy to use. The minimum deposit for Canadian Bodog players is set at $20 Canadian.

The Bodog Poker room uses proprietary software created exclusively for Bodog Poker and is known for their incredibly sick overlays while the casino is powered by Real Time Gaming and features 80 different slot machines along with side games.

One of the most recognized entertainment brands on Earth, a host of world-class entertainment services operate and have operated worldwide under the Bodog banner, including online gaming, which continues to grow at an impressive rate; an international record label; a publishing enterprise (with an online magazine, Bodog Nation, and blog, Bodog Beat); and an international television production company (Bodog TV), which has produced reality television series such as Bodog Fight and Calvin Ayre Wild Card Poker.

Bodog offers its players a simple, feature-rich sports betting product, offering a vast selection of sports betting opportunities across all major leagues, tournaments and events around the world.

Bodog’s exciting and fast-growing multi-player online poker community features Texas Holdem, Omaha, Omaha Hi/Lo, 7-Card Stud, 7-Card Stud Hi/Lo and 5-Card Stud.

Bodog has several branches covering the international market, the European one, the Chinese one besides the Canadian one with Bodog.ca .

Bodog does not offer online gaming services within the United States of America. Morris Mohawk Gaming Group (MMGG), located in the Mohawk Territory of Kahnawake and led by Olympic gold medalist and First Nations leader Alwyn Morris, is the exclusive licensee of the Bodog brand for online gaming services in that jurisdiction.

BodogBrand.com, created in 2005, is an entirely new model of venture partner: one that takes the vast, contained energy of a globally-recognized brand from one sector, couples it with deep branding expertise and financial depth, and unleashes it to propel new ventures to prominence in complementary industries. A model that respects the entrepreneur and understands that “ventures synergies” is not some marketing buzzword, but has the potential to be the foundation of an entirely new way of doing business.

BodogBrand.com holds the global rights to license the Bodog brand across all sectors and its mandate is to partner with carefully-selected licensees to license the brand to accelerate partner growth, while extending the BodogBrand.com into new and vibrant markets.

So fellow Canadian players, be sure to check the Bodog.ca website !

We can answer that easily:

* IT IS A LOT OF FUN — Normal, everyday folks don’t often have the opportunity to experience what Wide World of Sports might have termed “the thrill of victory,” that is, the idea of being a star, even if only for a day. That brings an adrenalin rush, and isn’t that fun?

* UPSIDE-DOWNSIDE RATIO IS FAVORABLE — Because most of the tournaments have added prize pools, there is, as we have mentioned in previous posts, the chance for the average player to make a big win, while at the same time, operating with comparatively little real risk. So there is a great deal of value in participating.

* IT’S A GOOD LEARNING EXPERIENCE — If you know the basics of a game but are not an expert at it, the tournament format may be an ideal platform for you to improve. You’ll also learn a lot more about money management, since that is a vital element to surviving and competing.

* MORE STRUCTURE — A lot of people appreciate the structure of a competition, which gives them something more to shoot for than regular game play in the casino. Here, you get to measure yourself against the abilities of other players, or get rewarded for your luck (whichever way you want to look at it!).

* YOU’LL GET BETTER EACH TIME — Playing in a tournament may seem very unfamiliar and uncomfortable at first. But once you get used to the tournament format, it will get easier and easier each time you play it. That can only add enjoyment over the long run.

* YOU’LL GET RESIDUAL BENEFITS — This is one thing the online casinos have down pat. People who participate in tournaments often have bonus points added to their account or get the opportunity to get into bigger tournament events for entry fees that are either reduced or waived. You will certainly be rewarded for taking part in tournaments.
