Bovada can be viewed as the off-spring of online wagering power house
bodog. They got their start in 2011 as the US DOJ was swinging their mighty sword and lopping off the heads of giant online gaming sites left and right. Never-the-less they survived and today are the largest, by a wide margin, online gaming site that is USA-friendly. In fact they cater to their USA player base so much so that they restrict many other popular gaming countries such as the UK, Canada and Germany.
Bovada offers a wide range of online gaming platforms such as casino, sportsbook, horse betting and of course poker.
The casino action at Bovada is as you would expect from a large gaming site. They offer a wide range of traditional game like table and card games, video poker and slots, keno, scratch cards and live casino games. At the time of this writing they offer a welcome bonus of 100% up to $1,000 match and you reload to more times for a total of a $3,000 max welcome bonus which is tops in the industry.
As for the sports betting option, they have everything under the sun from the NFL, NBA, NCAA, UFC/MMA, to Rugby, Cricket and Darts. They even cover wagering on political events and entertainment like who will win Best Actor at the Grammy’s. No matter what you wish to wager on, they have got it covered. At the time of this writing they offer a 50% up to $500 welcome bonus for their sportsbook customers.
Bovada excels at sports wagering and that’s their main bread and butter but that’s not to take anything away from their poker client which is excellent. It is a smooth, fast and enjoyable game play experience. They offer a wide range of games such as SNG’s, MTT and cash games for just about any table stake you are looking for. They have their fair share of sharks and grinders at the tables but do attract many casual and beginner level poker players from their sports book operation. They are currently offering a 100% up to $500 welcome bonus at their poker tables.
