No network url has been given yet, hell neither website even mentions the joining of revolution poker and it's only a week away.

The cashier's aren't changing on either skin . Lock will still handle there cashsouts, cake will handle there cashouts and so on, so I would doubt they would change there min and maximums....

The good thing that might come out of this for cake skin, is Shane stated somewhere that Lock would be helping out cake cashier in some obscure way.

this, this, and this.

I've asked 3-4 times and never got a straight answer. I know that if your name is already in use from someone else then you will be able to change your name.

As mentioned above cake limits you to 12 characters, while my name on lock is 16-17 characters, so I am unable to reserve it on cake to force a name change, so will I be stuck with the same name or will I still be given the chance to change it?

Oh. I am fine with buying into tourneys with them, which gives me 6.5% more. The 65% of ronin value could be big if it is a frequent promo, but right now I am essentially site busto, and probably not going to be putting in major volume (though I am planning on re loading post June 1 and putting some action there).

Players will be restricted to the Cake networks current character limit, anyone with a longer screen name will be prompted to change it whey they open the new software for the first time.

Other players will not be able to change their screename.

Re: FAQ for Lock/Cake move on June 1st

I am a lock player playing in Louisiana right now with no problems. I needed to make a deposit into my account but was reluctant because of being in one of the "banned states" and was afraid I'd be locked out somehow. Is there any reason for me to have this concern?

Microbob, don't you think MTT players will be better off with 35% because it's virtually impossible for tournament players to contribute the way SNG and cash grinders can?

Re: FAQ for Lock/Cake move on June 1st

I signed up for rakeback on Lock last year before the deadline on getting rakeback on new Merge accounts, I was playing on a different skin but just wanted to have Rakeback set up if I decided to play on Lock in the future, haven't yet played any real money on Lock, am I still on rakeback when this move to Revolution happens or with the VIP program? How does this work? Thanks.
