Does Lock Poker support HEM?

I'm thinking about depositing and grinding the Ipad2 promotion.
How are all the US players depositing onto this site??

I deposited $400 onto the site successfully using my Visa card.
My first 2 attempts at $500 were declined, so I think the trick is to lower the amount.

everytime i try to play at a merge site my pc bogs down
its not a crappy pc it is a 6 month old hp

What is the issue with player to player transfers?

Has anyone used Lock Poker and are they any good?

I was wondering if any reps from Lock or Victory can let us know their stance on today's activites? They are about to receive a ton of new players.

Are they going to bow down to the DOJ? I'm not to worried about Bodog, since they told the US Gov to go **** themselves and keep taking action on sport gambling & will continue to do so....

I've been playing on Lock for about a month now and really like it.

Can someone please explain this poker network thing to me? Lock is (afaik) on the merge network. So is RPM and Carbon. Does that mean that they share tables and users? Do they share payment processors? When I view a sites home page, lets say lock, and it says 5,555 players online, is that just on lock or is it on the whole network?

Any help or advice would be much appreciated. And sorry if this is in the wrong place.

Thanks

Drifter, that is the number of players for the ENTIRE network. Most of the skins, unless its a sportsbook, share the SAME back office processors. The individual sites have NO control over your money or speed of processing. Therefore, withdrawals take minimum of 7-15 days.

TheNuts has a sweet iPad promotion on Lock now.

Has anyone been able to deposit money onto lock? If so how did you do it?

Hi, like 4 days ago I registered an account on Lock Poker. I try make a deposit with Visa, but the transaction as been rejected 2 times, so i thought maybe my card isn't accepted on Merge Network, I send some e-mails, and the support told me to try to deposit with Neteller or something. So yesterday I registered an account on Neteller, and i'm waiting for all autorization, but like 2 hours ago, my account on Lock Poker as being banned.

Anyone can explain me why? I never played on Merge Network before, I sent an e-mail but still no response (I know only 2 hours passed)

Someone can help me?

Sorry for my bad english.

For the players that currently play there, how is the sng traffic there ? Turbos, reg speed, micros , mid - stakes sng's....any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I deposited via western union... money was credited to my account within minutes.

If you recieve Rakeback are the points worthless? Does anyone know if there are tournies we can enter with points or are they just for display purposes?

Are you in the US? how do you go about sending Lock Poker money via Western U.?

How do you deposit via Western Union? Are you in the US?

I heard daily rakeback?

Downloaded today and when I click to create account nothing happens. Ive had this problem connecting to the Internet before on ft and stars. Maybe something with computer settingsq? Anyone know how to fix this?

Hey I'm also wondering how people have successfully deposited on Lock Poker with Western Union.

I went to the Cash Transfer option within the deposit tab and entered the minimum $100. Then I received this email below (I changed names for privacy reasons). I guess the instructions seem pretty straightforward, but I went to Western Union and I didn't know where Quezon was, which is pretty important (Philippines?). Also, I didn't know if the Receiver ID info was important b/c it wasn't on the WU transfer form. I ended up not doing it, but it seems like you just transfer money to a random person in Quezon and then hope they credit your account.

Posting all of that information (i.e. person's name, which city/country) isn't too bright imo.

I seriously wish people would stop posting that type of info and relegate it to "PM me for details."

Sorry, I'm new here, obv. But like I said, all names are fake. There is no Mary Teresa Williams in Quezon. That would be a huge coincidence. Is it still bad to post that email?

wtf i try to sit down at a table in lock poker today and it says For security reasons you are unable to access features relating to real money in our software. Please choose another game. have been playing for weeks with no problems and now this, i am from Australia. anyone know what's going on?

Who's your ISP? I had iPrimus for awhile and got some interesting information from Neteller Security after being locked there, and they phoned me. Apparently some Aussie service providers bought blocks of IP addresses that show up as originating in the U.S. If you just power off your DSL box for 10 seconds and then restart, it might be enough. In my case Neteller Security stayed with me on the phone the whole time while my PC was rebooting, and confirmed they were once again "seeing" an Aussie IP address. Access to my account was restored immediately while on the phone. It may be too late with a poker site, once they lock you though. Just something worth trying IMO.

Some things I've noticed in the past 24 hours of being on Lock.

Just deposited on Lock yesterday via WU -- showed up in about 20 minutes during evening hours.

They have lightning fast email support so far -- but all the emails have the same name at the bottom even after 14 hours or so. Long work days in techsupport land? Who knows.

Though they are mentioned in the same ad, you cannot do the deposit bonus with the ipad bonus. But, you get rakeback, ipad, and all their promos minus the deposit bonus, and then once you earn the iPad (or presumably the giveaway period ends on May 31st) youll still get the first deposit bonus on your NEXT deposit to earn within 90 days.

My understanding is now that with RB you still can do VIP, but earn the VIP points only at 65% pace of normal (since you have 35% RB.) Either way, your points DO accrue at 65% of normal im just not 100% sure that you are allowed to be a VIP statusholder once you'd reach it at that slower pace.

Also, the Hand History functionality is bad. Trying to post a hand earlier where a guy folder with $0.01 behind was so frustrating i gave up, even with the hand being as priceless as it was :-P

Anyhow, let me know of any q's, I'm in the game.
