Not long ago, we reported that Bodog had some serious inflictions with the FBI, claiming the founder, Calvin Ayre to hold money in several bank accounts, and these days, another trouble with Bodog appears where the company has been charged of breaking a patent (Distributing a gaming software for online gaming) of a company named "1st Technology".

The appeal by "1st Technology" has been approved by the court of Nevada ruling that Bodog should pay no less than $50 Million to 1st Technology LLC.

This patent breaking case has brought to court last year at June, but Bodog has failed to appear in front of the court of law and has suffered default fine of $47,000 along with taking Bodog's domain names "Bodog.com" and "Bodog.net" which caused Bodog to change their domain into "Bodoglife.com" while appealing against the court's decision.

This blow to Bodog not only resulted in paying a huge fine and dealing with the FBI investigation altogether, but also it is reported that the number of online players who are using Bodog as an affiliate are doping down. Pokerscout.com reports that for the past six months, the number of online players has dropped from 1,100 to 800!

Whatever Bodog to do, it's up to them, the last two incidents might drive off new and old players like it already started, and Bodog has got to do things right if they want to stay in the business. Players know that they want a place which will eventually guarantee their future profits and not a place where it is starred in the news.
