    BetOnline Poker!

    I just started playing there yesterday and the games are good and the software is nice. O made the move from Ignition because they keep jerking me around on payouts.

    So far so good. Nice site.

    look at the times lol+fees

    36 hours for neteller or skrill? the fk? 15 days for a wire? RoFL
    it's a joke

    There is also the issue with the money still being in your account while you click the withdraw button. The money doesn't leave your account balance until they start their process which takes days in some cases. They also have a funny rule with not letting you withdraw for a week if you deposit with a credit card.

    Whole site is a scam that destroys most degenerate gamblers

    such outdated money hungry practices

    Scam is a bit rich!!

    I don't like a 2% btc fee either but $20 flat for ewallets is better than most and the payout time is fine by me. Happy to get paid within a day or two when I know it's reliable. I don't use P2P and really don't think anyone who does should be bitching about anything if they insist on that but again, 5 days max seems fine to me too considering how difficult that system is for offshores to operate for you.

    Anyway, entitled to your opinion I guess.

    I actually like the 2% back end fee on the Bitcoin, because they ship it out right away with no bulshit hassles. I started taking the withdrawal from ignition every 3 days and all the sudden they started giving me excuses and giving me this whole run around saying that there was an issue with one of my previous payout it still hasn't been confirmed yet all of them were confirmed. Ignition (bovada)has a long track record of doing this to people.

    Optional, they are fairly busy a handful of 6 handed and 9 handed No Limit games all the way through the levels up to 5/10. They have very low limits for limit Hold'em. But I'm guessing that's because that game is easier for people to collude in.

    Have you got any beef with the content of my post? Or did you just post to make dumbass personal comments about me?



    I'm a moderator here. Part of my role is to provide a balanced opinion when it's needed. But that isn't even what happened here... have you really got some criticism of my personal opinion there? Something factually wrong or unfair in what I said?

    48 hours is no bullshit/hassle? cmon man you guys use too many crap books

    36 hours for an ewallet and 48hours for bitcoin is atrocious

    these guys employ tactics that were common place 10 years ago to keep gamblers playing

    immoral conduct all round

    The couple I have done so far have only taken about 4 hours. And yes it is way less of a hassle than ignition

    If you are a serious better you should do some math and realise how much that 2% affects you

    Yeah I know all that bullshit. But I know myself even better. I do a lot better with my money in my Bitcoin wallet and not on some sports book website.

    And ignition cash-outs are free but what good is a free cash out when they won't send it to you and come up with excuse after excuse of why they can't?

    I don't think he realizes you are talking for poker play and options are very limited.

    I can see why you are very happy to pay 2% and know you will be paid poker winnings when you expect.

    But 2% is quite a rake for a serious sports bettor.


    Anyway, this was supposed to be about the poker and the good info is getting lost in side issues.

    The poker is good if you like No Limit Hold'em. Not much limit poker on there though

    If you don't have a withdrawal for thirty days then you can do it on Friday correct? Or every 30 days on a Friday even if you have had withdrawals.

    Can't imagine playing limit online. The only people that do it irl are people over 60 just to get out of the house.

    In Minnesota all we have is limit. I grew up playing it and I'm very strong at that game. But you need to go where the money is and right now the money is in no limit so I have no problem playing that either

    ive heard payout nightmares from WPN....you should prob check 2+2 poker forum and do your own research for whats available in your state. Im in NJ on pokertars where its regulated by the state so i have zero worries where as people who have to play offshore should double and triple check their options. Best of luck Brick and Happy New Year
