Bodog Casino Review

Since Bodog began in 1994, it has become one of the biggest names in online gaming, providing a sportsbook, poker room and casino for players from across the world. Of course, the Bodog enterprise isn't limited to gambling alone, as the company has also branched out into music promotion, publishing and television production.

The European branch of their operations is licensed in Antigua and regulated by the Antigua and Barbuda Financial Services Regulatory Commission, Directorate of Offshore Gaming. This jurisdiction has been "white listed" by the Department of Culture, Media and Sport in the UK.

Bodog's casino has earned its large clientele through extensive advertising campaigns as well as providing a wide variety of games. But as much as this casino can match any other site when it comes to game choice and customer support, there is little in the line of promotions.

Games

There are over 80 games in the Bodog casino, available in flash and download versions. For table games, all the usual Vegas-style games are on offer – Blackjack, Craps, American and European Roulette as well as Baccarat, Pai-Gow and Tri-Card Poker. Their latest addition to the site is European Blackjack, while a whole host of slots and video poker games are also available.

Software

Bodog's software is run by the reliable Realtime Gaming and certified by Technical Systems Testing (TST). Their Random Number Generator has also been certified and approved by Gaming Associates – the results of which are published online.

The graphics make play easy to follow and are quite realistic, but there has been some criticism of the menu layout. The slots, Roulette and Blackjack games offer a life-like experience and the statistics and results for each wager are clearly displayed – great for newcomers to online casinos.

Bonuses and Promotions

Unfortunately, Bodog does not currently offer much in terms of their casino bonus, but certain promotions for the sportsbook and poker room can be earned through casino games. For the unlimited 10% First Deposit Bonus, a roll over 15 times the bonus amount will be required. Pontoon and Caribbean 2 are excluded from the promotion, as are pass/don't pass wagers in Craps and red/black in Roulette. The minimum deposit for this promotion is 10 units of your chosen currency. While the 10% may not sound much in comparison to other casinos, it has a much lower wagering requirement and play through counts on most games, something most other casinos cannot claim.

The 20% Refer a Friend bonus comes with the same minimum deposit requirements and is up to the value of £30 (or currency equivalent). To be eligible for the extra cash, the referred friend needs to make a roll over 10 times the bonus amount.

Money

Bodog allows players to make deposits and withdrawals via credit card (Visa/ Maestro/ Solo/ Switch/ Delta), Neteller, Click2Pay and Moneybookers. There are no fees for withdrawals or deposits, but if you withdraw your funds without playing on the site a small fee will be charged. The minimum deposit amount is 10 units of your chosen currency, while withdrawals of 20 units or less will incur a handling fee.

Support

Bodog's customer representatives are known for their friendly, efficient and professional approach and are easily among the most respected in the business. Currently, the site's customer service can be contacted via email or phone, 24 hours a day.
