I have been using HM2 on ignition/bovada for years with the card catcher(3rd party add on) as far as i know, both the Card Catcher and DriveHUD is made by the same company 0 Disagree Agree PRO Advice. 2016 Bovada poker players moved to Ignition Casino; 2017 Poker Returns to Bovada; Poker was always an afterthought for Bodog and what later become Bovada. The site’s main products were casino games and sports betting. That changed after Black Friday. Bodog became the largest US online poker site by the end of 2011. Currently Bovada and Bodog share the same online poker player pool and it looks like this arrangement is set to continue. The Bovada brand accepts US players, and will continue to do so under Ignition, whereas the Bodog brand is primarily used for Asian customers. History of Bodog and Bovada. Bovada.lv is a new online gambling site powered by Bodog. They are owned by Mohawk Morris Gaming Group (MMGG) who has been licensing Bodog software, brand name, and support services since 2007. With Bodog now growing in legal markets, they no longer want for their brand name associated with United States gambling.
After a roughly one-year hiatus, unregulated online poker room Bovada has returned to once again cater to U.S. players in unregulated markets.
Bovada Scam Report
The company announced the return in a late August email to customers, as well as a posting on their website.
Prior to September 2016, Bovada operated as one of the most popular online poker rooms in the world, reaching as high as No. 3 according to traffic trackers at PokerScout. However, at that point, the company announced a transition, ostensibly selling its poker offering to Ignition Casino and closing its doors on Sept. 30.
Once licensed by the Kahnawake Gaming Commission but operating in blatant disregard for U.S. law, Bovada now lists no regulating gaming commission on its website.

The poker offering at Ignition turned out to be a clone of the Bovada client, which led many to believe that the room was still under the same ownership but with the proverbial banners simply replaced.
Now, the Bovada brand is back, while the Ignition skin carries on as well. All are part of the PaiWangLuo Poker Network, which acquired the Bodog Poker Network and all of its skins, including the aforementioned Ignition, in early 2017.
Bovada Exits Five States
Bovada, which operated in violation of U.S. law after the 2011 exits of major online poker operators, aims to poach customers who reside in unregulated U.S. markets and therefore don't have access to regulated online poker. On Wednesday, the company sent an email to customers in the three states that offer regulated online poker in the U.S. (Nevada, New Jersey and Delaware), plus Maryland and New York, saying that it will no longer offer poker services in those states. Player accounts in those five states will be closed by Oct. 2, 2017.
