I didn't hear from Lock support for over a week after my initial inquiry re: ipad2/cash bonus. It's now been over a day and a half since support contacted me and said the cash would be in my account.

I've talked with Rizen about this in PMs, so I don't mean to nit it up, just wish there was a way to expedite the process.

Did they deposit it to your vault? Did you receive an email when they deposited the cash? Thanks
06-07-2011 , 05:58 PM
What is this vault people are talking about? Where is it located on the client?
06-07-2011 , 06:00 PM
click Stats from the main program bottom right

Thanks for the advice. I put the cash out through, and there is note section on the bottom where I told them to change my state. Hopefully this goes through. I also emailed support, but don't expect to hear back from them.

Thanks again.

In the poker client click the stats tab. The vault should be thr 5th option over, located to the right of reports. Click on the vault & setup your 4 digit pin & secret password. You can then transfer poker funds to the vault & vice versa. Anytime you access the vault you have to enter your pin & answer your question. It's added account security.

Gonna be interested to hear about these payouts, if people start getting paid on Lock and nowhere else it's going to be interesting to see what people do. Although if your money is tied up on another Merge skin you have to be inactive for 2 months, I believe, before switching.
06-07-2011 , 06:54 PM
There is a misconception about playing on Merge. I see so many people thinking they can only play on one skin.

You can play on as many skins as you like. You can play at 8 am on Lock Poker. Then go have lunch and then go play on RPM Poker. You just can't open up more than one Merge skin at a time. And you can only have RB (pre-June 1st) on one skin at a time. But depending on your volume and/or monthly promos playing on VIP instead of RB might be better.

Lock might be a good choice for Wednsday. RPM might be a good choice for your Monday play. Carbon might be a good choice for your Tuesday play. Etc. Check each skin out.

when is it better to be VIP rather than rakeback?
06-07-2011 , 07:26 PM

On Lock if you can do 10,000+ points per month for Black VIP thats 40%+ which is better than RB. Other skins have other ways to beat RB%, each skin is different.
06-07-2011 , 07:33 PM
If I had RB on RPM can i switch it to Lockpoker after 60 days still?

Edit: nvm just found the answer earlier in the thread.

That is the magic unknown question. I'm not sure haven't heard a clear answer.

I'm pretty sure it is a no if that switch skin was made after June 1st. But I signed up for several before June 1st and still not sure if re-tagging is possible.

As your switch skin affiliate. Mine was like "I have no idea what you are talking about or if it is possible".

There are still a lot of open questions, like:
Do RB players get any VIP rewards (I think the answer will be yes, eventually).
Is the cash back tiered (i.e. 0 for the first 100, 10% on the next $400, 15% on the second $500, etc.) I think with the daily payouts this is 'yes,' unless they are going to give you a catch up payment when you hit a new tier.
Do you start each month fresh or does your level carry over?
What are the particulars of the casino bonus?

When these questions are answered, then the break even point can be calculated, though the VIP system can change any month.

My personal belief is that when the dust settles, it will not be worse to have RB. I think the real intent is to get the not rake back players comparable rewards to RB, which is as it should be. But I think it will take a little time for them to work out all the details. On the plus side, they get lots of free analysis and advice from this thread, so they should get there eventually

For now we are kind of guessing that is the point at which it is better to not have rakeback but we aren't really sure yet. If lock gives rakeback people some points in the future perhaps at 6.5% value then that takes the rakeback player to 41.5%. And perhaps the rakeback player will also be eligible for other future promos that the non rakebackers get. However, if the rakebackers get an extra 20% value in the casino and the nonrakebackers don't then that severely tilts things back to not wanting to have rakeback if you are getting 10k points per month.

This is why I would like lock and merge to figure this out ASAP. I'm not going to drop my rakeback until I have more confidence that I'm better off without it. I'm guessing that this will be the case and feel pretty sure about it. But for now we still dont really know anything. And trying to predict merge's next move in all this VIP and rakeback stuff is something I don't think even Kreskin could pull off.

Yes to both.

i opened an account pre-june 1st for most of the big rooms on merge so don't think that should affect me?
06-07-2011 , 08:47 PM
raketherake says that rakeback switches are still possible after the 60 day "no play" period. I believe a couple other site reps (including RPM Seth) have said the same thing. Can't remember if Rizen agreed with this or not.

So, for now, I'm not playing on Lock. If I decide to not play on there from now through August 31 then I can have my rakeback switched instead of cancelling it. But for me I really don't feel it's that valuable as I'm fairly sure I won't want to be playing with rakeback on some other skin anyway (better value getting non-rakeback on my current skins).

I want to declare that Lock's VIP system is by far the best out there. But I don't have a freaking clue, mostly because of the still vague "Lock Casino Bonus". Okay so is it, I hit 10,000 points and I can use all 10,000 points in the Casino? And how exactly do you use points in the casino???? And does it stop at 10,0000 points??? What if I have 15,000 points? Can I only do 10,000 or only in blocks of 10,000? I could go on. Rizen, JHS, Lock Executives...Poker players don't give a crap about your casino !!! If you erased out that part and put something in it place poker wise that had an identifiable % like 15-20% cash bonus, poker players would be beating a path to your site. Instead this post and the ones above it not having a clue what is the true value of your VIP system. Lock Black VIP/Elite might be as high as 60%+ which would be a-w-e-s-o-m-e, but I have no damn clue.

And why the hell would I want a epic grinding poker player who is doing 10,000-50,000+ points per month anywhere but at the POKER TABLES??? The monster grinder is opening tables not just sitting at existing ones. This player is probably playing higher than almost anyone on your site giving you high stakes games. I could go on. But what the heck lets send them off to the casino instead. Or exchange the casino bonus for SOMETHING THAT IS NOT LISTED ON THE VIP WEBPAGE. *%^*$*&%#

I see your point, but as it stands, the casino seems like a vital part of the strategy to expedite payments. A quick look today, for example, might reveal a method that has been previously unavailable
06-07-2011 , 08:59 PM
how to i cancel the current check i tried withdrawing?

also does it immediately appear back in your account balance with the 15$ check fee?

is check by courier the same price as a check?
06-07-2011 , 09:15 PM
i think rizen said the first check of the month is free from the courier
06-07-2011 , 09:19 PM
ya i just caught that when i opened up the casino page. if my check still says "manual approval required" can't i cancel it somehow? it's been saying that for a week now...and i am verified.
