    Anyone still play on Cakepoker?

    I know there are hardly any U.S players in general after the second wave of government crackdowns, but I've been playing on Cakepoker, one of the few sites that still allows U.S players. I don't play a whole lot anymore, more of a hobby when I am bored, but when I do there is nobody to play with! It is a ghost town on there. I think a few other sites that were part of that network went elsewhere. Either way, I have like $300 on there and no way of cashing out since you need $500 to get a check mailed (the only option for U.S players). Anyone else in a similar predicament?

    I am still waiting on a payout for over a month , so I would not play there

    they will mail you the check for under 500 now, mine was over 1000, but they said they are trying to accommodate since all the problems, but they are basically trying not to pay

    Where did you hear they will mail one under $500? I'll have to email the cashier, but he certainly didn't mention that when I explained my situation.

    I played a freeroll there today. I have been playing elsewhere. I went to play at Cake, a little ring game today, figured maybe a little omaha hi/lo, not one table was open. Not a single one. That is not an option for my favorite game, I got $184 on Cake. I was able to transfer with another player $50 of my Cake money since it allows transfers, otherwise my bankroll was higher.

    I got them to do the same for me, but it's been pending for 6 days now, still giving me the option to cancel. Is that the state your cashouts are in?

    God I miss the early 2000's when the government didn't crack down on what they should reap and everyone threw money on and reloaded instantly after overplaying their weak ace, why couldn't that last forever?!

    I also cancelled my account with Intertops, since cake poker can not play, then every person that supports these thief's should also be punished

    I put a $100 on Cake poker. Then I realized that I had to cashout min of $500 and i was able to get my account up to $500 then I requested a payout. I've been waiting for able 6 weeks now for my payout. They emailed me saying something about techincal difficulties. It ticks me offf. They can't even pay out $500?? And then I get emails from them every week about deposit bonuses?! Like I'm going to make another deposit when they can't even pay out $500!

    Yeah no shit, I don't know if they ever plan on paying us. They are probably just kicking the can down the road with the promise of future payment.

    have like $37 on there. not going to play it. of all the sites cake is the worst. never liked the gold card and gold chips reward system. IMO bodog poker is the best place for US players to go.
