I was just on Bodog, looking at their deposit options, and noticed a new option called "NUcharge". It says it's a phone card you can purchase with US credit cards, and you can fund your account with it. I previously used something similar back in the partypoker days without problems, so I figured I'd check it out. So I clicked the link to check it out, and after browsing the site a bit, I came across this little gem of a header on the 'refund' page-
I mean, we all know what the phone connect cards are used for, but to blatantly advertise "START PLAYING NOW!" made me crack up a bit. 
Did you know that participating in a poker forum can help you improve your own game? Be it by sharing experiences or simply asking for help, participation in a forum helps you focus and keep 'on topic' which will help you improve your game. You can learn from other players feedback and from their experiences. Why the THP poker forums? We offer one of the best managed texas holdem poker forums available, and the community within is far more friendly than those typicaly found on other sites. We've made a 'lurkers edition' of the poker forum available here on Holdem Poker Online, but we encourage all visitors to register and join in on the conversations on TexasHoldem-Poker.com

Does it say how the hell you would cash out with it though? My thinking would be that you would have to get a check sent by mail.

Or maybe you just get to make a shitload of phone calls! Win a MTT and you can call overseas for 250 hours.

You'd just use that to deposit.
Use one of bodogs other options to cash out (meaning, have them send you a check)
