Eurolinx w/d problems > UPDATE: Eurolinx seeks to put business into liquidation. - Page 23 - Internet Poker

Just spoke to a friend of mine who works there. Told her about this thread and she will forward it. She told me that lynda left like 3 month ago. so thats why she is not posting here. But as they are regulated in Malta, if you are really scared for your money. contact the LGA. www.lga.org.mt

You do know that he has to earn the bonus first by raking in excess of the bonus amount?

I wish EL and BOB could be back to normal soon and all players could get their money. This issue has been lasting too long and it is not acceptable.

On the other hand, with all the negative publicity, some how mircorgaming is moving up and up in past a few month from 12 th place on pokerscout to 11th, 10th, 9th, 8th and 7 th (this week trafic report).

To me ladbrokes, unitbet and so on prima/micorgaming are good ones.

again. if one skin is doing bad isn't this supposed to affect all the others?! how does it work?

if eurolinx goes down oweing 100 000$ or more. doesn't this mean that the other skins have to put the money to cover or somehow?

he means that he earnt the bonus and they credited him 1K.
so if he lost that 1K on ladbrokes they have to send it to them somehow and they need cash to do this.

In the process of earning that bonus he had to rake more than the bonus amount. So EL has made in excess of $1k. They can use that money to settle with any skins if he loses the bonus money.

Not accurate.
He must rake the amount to withdraw. He does not need to rake the amount before losing it all to a player on another skin. If he does that, EL will have to pay the balance to the network.

I think the bonuses may be a last ditch attempt reduce pressure from players, but it will probably only delay the inevitable.

As someone else has said on the thread, if they actually are not busto, then they are incompetent and not to be trusted.

They credit the bonus amount to the account before the player has fulfilled the requirements?

You need to clear 15,000 raked hands for the $1000 bonus to be credited into your account. That's well over $1000 in rake for Eurolinx.

Again, I doubt Eurolinx is "Broke". I already told you what EL explained to me, now if it doesn't get fixed within first week of August, then I am going to start to worry.

i am also confused by this scenario. can someone take a minute and explain how it works in the poker skin business?

player A on eurolinx loses money to player B on microgaming skin.

player B cashes out on the skin.

player A cannot cash out on eurolinx because eurolinx is busto.

How does the skin get reimbursed by eurolinx? Where does that money come from? Are the skins getting as screwed by EL as the players are? It seems unlikely the skins would put up with that right?

thanks

There are different degrees of broke. They might have enough cash to settle with the other skins but not enough to additionally pay out all their players.

I was talking about Betonbet. On their homepage u can see there that poker and casino is licenced at LGA Malta under the name Alpine ltd. Their sportsbook is licenced in Curacao.

I assumed that we were all talking about Eurolinx, sorry for the confusion.
