Anonymous Tables
Start with a clean slate every time you sit down at one of our tables.

With every new game, our anonymous tables feature creates an equal playing field for everyone, just like in a live casino. Read more about our Anonymous Tables.
All-in Percentage Feature
What are your chances of winning the main pot? Now, if you go all-in on a hand, a clearly-marked percentage bar will show up under the cards of each all-in player to indicate their probability of winning. The percentages appear as soon as the cards are shown and update after each action.

Recreational players and pros alike will appreciate our easy-to-read, adaptable tables.

Multiple Language Software
Poker is a game enjoyed around the world, and now you can play in the language you’re most comfortable with. Bovada Poker is available in English, Spanish and Portuguese.
Hand History Viewer
Watch your previous hands as they develop and relive the action using our hand history viewer. This exciting feature allows players to revisit previous hands and watch the action unfold in front of their eyes a second time around. The hand history viewer provides fast-forward and rewind buttons, giving you complete control over what you want to view. The viewer is a great tool to help you analyze and improve your game and your own playing style. The viewer is available for Cash Games, STT’s and MTT’s. You can activate the hand history viewer directly from the table you’re playing from or from the hand history details page.
Complete Hand Histories
This unique feature gives you the ability to view everyone’s hole cards from your previous poker sessions. Full hand histories will be view-able in the software 24 hours after the completion of a scheduled tournament, Sit & Go, or cash game hand. These complete hand histories will reveal the hole cards of all players, regardless of whether they played the hand or not, offering extra insight into how the previous hands unfolded.
Instant Heads-Up Rematch
If you find an opponent you enjoy playing against, you can now keep the fun going thanks to Bovada’s Instant Heads-Up Rematch feature. This option allows you and your fellow player to return to the same table and get back to the action while the chips are still hot. As soon as a Heads-Up match is completed, you will be given the option to rematch your opponent. If they also agree to a rematch, a new Heads-Up game will start instantly.
Multi Entries for Zone Poker
For a more exciting and rewarding Zone Poker experience, you can now play two entries at the same time in a single player pool. When you buy in to a Zone Poker table, you will have the option of playing one or two entries.
Single Session Player Notes
Gain that extra edge by analyzing and noting your opponents’ playing tendencies in a cash game or tournament. You can take single-session notes quickly and easily during a tournament, Sit and Go or cash game.
Rabbit Cam
If you’ve ever wondered what turn or river would have been, you can satisfy your curiosity with the Rabbit Cam. It’ll show you what the next card dealt would have been when a hand completes after the flop or turn, but before the river has been dealt. If a hand completes after the flop, the turn card will be shown. If it completes after the turn, the river card will be shown.
Hand Re-Player
Opponents who mucked no longer show their cards in the viewer. To take a peek, you’ll have to view the text version of the hand history.
Play More Tournaments
Play between one and 15 tournaments; the choice is now yours. You can still play up to four Cash and Sit and Go Tournament tables simultaneously, but you now have the option to play even more Multi-Table Tournaments, up to 15 total tables, at the same time.
Re-Entry Tournaments
Depending on the tournament, eliminated players may have the opportunity to re-enter play for a second, third or in some cases unlimited number of times. Bovada hosts tournaments allowing at least one re-entry at the top of the hour, every hour (ex. 9:00, 13:00, 21:00 ET). In addition, all Crazy Eights tournaments allow eight re-entries and all Lucky Sevens tournaments seven. Re-entry tournaments that have unlimited re-entries will make this clear in the tournaments’ title: (“Unlimited Re-Entry”). Check each event for details.
