I enjoy Bodog better, esp. freerolls. Fulltilt players go all in all the time on freerolls with no hands.
Fulltilt has far better software (they were rated #1 in '08 by Bluff Mag.).
Bodog's has a few chinks in it I don't like... for one you can only open a maximum of 4tables. Worst part about their software (imo) is the HandHistory feature (the one to review the hand that just played out). It really sucks! You have to type in the hand '#' in order to get the hand to come up (tedious & time consuming while playing).
Also, for some reason while I'm running Bodog on my computer it seems to mess everything else up. I will occassionally have 3 or 4 sites up & running, with a couple/few tables on each BUT when I"m on Bodog, if I even run one other site I'll often run into problems (freeze-ups). Also, 2 tables seems to run okay on Bodog but when I've got more than 2, just seems to screw with it (I do only have 1GB Ram but that's never been an issue while on other sites).
Bodog has far softer tables in the micro buyin levels.... their SNG's have some of theeee worst players in them that you'll see anywhere (TitanPoker comes close behind).
As mentioned above, Bodog also has 'Beginner' SNG tables ($2 buyin, top 5 of 10 get paid.... sort of like a DoN (double or nothing) but there is a graduated payout. Pretty hard to lose in one of those games.... although there is alot of donking in the early levels (play your big hands 'fast'.. value bet the hell out of them).
Bodog doesn't have any micro level cash tables.... lowest is 10NL.
Player traffic on Bodog is alot smaller than Fulltilt (but you will find games to play... it's not like you have to wait for eons for a table to fill up).
A good feature on Bodog is that they also have SportsBetting, which you can access from the same account you play poker on (ie. you could bet on UFC MMA fights, minimum bet is $1).
Hmm... what else?? I play at Fulltilt alot and very little on Bodog. I just don't like it much. Some folks swear by Bodog and will predominantly play on there (my guess is because the tables are sooooo soft, TONS of weak players on them😡!).
hope that helps you out a bit
I'll give you a few good & a few bad points (imo, fwiw).

I know you will get that with all freerolls but FT is the worst mainly because the fr only payout $50 and you sign up and play within 40 and on top of that they have so many more fr daily.

Bodog has also A lot of guaranteed tourneys that rarely come close to meeting the amount of players need to meet the guarantee. So it a great extra value for your buck. On the other hand the software is really slow and lags.

I agree with most of the posts so far. BoDog definitely has more weak players but if you play in some of the higher level tourneys, you'll usually get some pretty good games. I started with $0 and have built up to over $250.00 in about 6 months. Way to many people on FullTilt for me.
I much prefer full tilt. Bodog has horrible software and the worst customer service I have ever experienced. And, most importantly, I win way more consistently on ft.

Bodogs freerolls are better than full tilt if you can get in a full tilt freeroll. i do get a better connection with full tilt
I find the freerolls easier on bodog, but I do not like the hand history at all. If they cleared that up and added micro stakes ring games I would probably play there more than full tilt. I'm hooked on micro stakes games. Just enough fun for me.
[FONT="Franklin Gothic Medium"]I have never understood why Bodog does not create HH files on your computer like most -- all? -- other do. Don't even see an option for it in any of the menus. Very much a bone of contention for me in regards to Bodog.
The software also needs some work. Too much lag at times and has just outright crashed on me a few times LATE in tournaments. . .[/FONT]

Thanks for the info! Bodog is getting better with service.
Full tilt freerolls suck.......end of story. Now that they have changed them to 7500 entries..........it is just silly. Almost as bad as Pokerstars. I am new to Bodog and so far so good....
i feel your pain with this one , before we had 1% in winning and now we have even less then that . before it was 27 payouts for 2700 and now it's 45 payouts out of 7500 , humm , oh well . bodog is much better off then fulltilt when it comes to the freerolls and also more money . weeeeeeeeee , lol .

FTP has better software, but the suckouts are epic. The most I have EVER been able to get into my BR there is about $100 before I lose it all in a series of unbelievable bad beats.
Bodog's software is OK. The poker there seems to play more like brickandmortarroom poker. I have run my BR up to a couple of grand several times and then I cash out down to about $300.
My main criterion for choosing where to play...I CONSISTENTLY WIN WITH ABC POKER AT BODOG. All I care about is increasing my BR.
