One of the unique new features that Bovada Poker offers its players is a game option called Anonymous Poker in which players can sit down at a table with absolutely no identifying information (e.g. avatar or player name) and compete against one another without anyone knowing who they are. Of course, if your opponents don’t know who you are, you don’t know who they are either. So the advantages and disadvantages go both ways.
What are those advantages and disadvantages. As Bovada Poker puts it “a level playing field for everyone”. As an anonymous poker player, no one can strategize against you by knowing your poker playing style ahead of time. Playing against other anonymous poker players, however, you are also playing “blind” unable to draw on your knowledge of your fellow Bovada Poker players. The result is that Anonymous Poker makes for an exciting game every time.
One of the other helpful features of Bovada Poker’s Anonymous Poker is the site’s fully downloadable hand histories, which allow you to examine your opponent’s hole cards only 24 hours after the game has been played.
Bovada Poker is currently the only poker network online to offer tables that are 100% anonymous.
And right now, to help entice players to the Anonymous Poker tables, Bovada Poker is holding its first Anonymous Poker Series, with over a $100,000 guaranteed prize pool. In our next post we’ll tell you all the details of the Bovada Poker Anonymous Poker Series and its complete schedule of events.
