Ignition is an unlicensed, offshore site. "Trust us"
This always gets deleted when someone brings it up on 2p2, also but people definitely need to know: Ignition/Bovada/Bodog does not have a gaming license, a licensed RNG, or anything other than "trust us" attached to their poker/casino games. No, really - That's what they'll tell you if you call them and ask for yourself. They'll say that they've been in business long enough that they should just be trusted based on that. When probed and questioned on "well, why DON'T you have a license for about 2 years now?" they'll just tell you "well, I don't have any information pertaining to that". Think about that. They can defend the fact that they don't have one, but they don't have any information as to the topic. "Trust us".
Again, if you don't literally lick windows for your health, this is pretty hard to not say "WTF?!" to lol.
The site is anonymous and filled with house bots, that's the reason why. Can you think of any other? Oh, that's right - The RNG is rigged. With no oversight, obviously they're free to do this to their heart's content. Again: Is there ONE other possible reason? No.

Any recommendations for offshore sites?
Do they segregate funds ?
To this very day, they still don't have a gaming license and if you go on 2p2 and inquire about it, you're immediately banned and your post(s) deleted.
Imo, if you're in the US and aren't playing on one of the state regulated sites, you should be aware that there is inherent risk. Luckily, withdrawals are fast and easy if you use btc so I recommend either not playing on these sites at all, or only playing limits you're comfortable with, and only leaving an amount on the site that wouldn't be much of a financial impact if it were to be lost. You could even pull out your entire roll daily and redeposit whenever you want to play.
These sites are unregulated and could shut down literally at any time. They could (and probably do) also have bots and/or other nefarious things going on that a licensed company wouldn't be able to get away with. It just is what it is.
Unfortunately, thats pretty much the state of online poker in the US. All we can do is try to take precautions to protect ourselves, and try to make good, informed decisions.
where this license comes from? which guarantees do you have that this license means something?
