Bodog, Pump Poker and Betbet
The names could start to get confusing for poker players who simply want to keep track of who is who and where they are playing online. For Bodog.com, an online sportsbook and poker outfit that uses style and flash to gild the substance of the site, acquiring the Betcorp online gambling operations required a little reshuffling. PumpPoker.com, formerly owned by Betcorp, will soon have customer accounts transferred to the Betbet.com site, a move that will leave them still able to access the same accounts using the same existing user names and passwords, but leaving them a little confused about where their accounts lie.
