Bodog has removed ePassporte payment option from its site and software.
There are a number of different poker websites out there that specifically ban players from the United States, but the interesting thing about that is that New Bodog Poker actually bans players from Canada rather than the US. It is an interesting move and according to the website it is for legal reasons, but considering they are the only website that does it, one has to wonder if there are any other motivations behind that. In any case, they have a lot to offer players that play there so if you happen to be lucky enough not to live in Canada, there is a lot for you to enjoy here.

New Bodog Poker Graphics |
The graphics that are inherent to Bodog Poker are actually quite nice, but at the same time the software does provide a number of features that are unique to the Bodog Poker audience. When you consider the fact that they are the only specific software package that allows you to specify multiple tables appearing on the same screen, there is definitely something there for consideration. A lot of other software packages allow you to tile a number of windows on the same screen, but to date Bodog Poker is the only one that allows you to actually play multiple tables in the same window; something that impresses a lot of first time players at Bodog.

NewBodog Poker Bonus |
One of the areas that Bodog tends to lag behind a lot of the other sites that now have online poker is in the bonus. The best bonus you can get from Bodog Poker happens to be a 10% deposit bonus. When you take that 10% bonus and compare it to the 100% to 200% bonuses that a lot of other poker websites are offering and then consider the extremely difficult clearance conditions on the bonus itself, it becomes pretty easy to see why people would not particularly be happy with the bonus offered by Bodog Poker.

Deposit Methods at NewBodog |
There are a number of different deposit methods allowed at Bodog Poker and among those deposit methods are: Instant Check, Click2Pay, NETeller, Moneybookers, Speedcard, eWalletXpress, NUcharge, Credit Card and ePassporte.
Players that live in the United States will be able to fund their accounts using the ePassporte method. As more and more poker sites begin to adopt this as one of their payment processors, ePassporte gets closer to being able to fill the void that was left by NETeller in the wake of the ban on online gambling in the United States.
