Im sure this has been addressed but I dont want to sift through so many pages. What is a good site that people are using for rakeback with ACR? Im pretty new when it comes to rakeback anyways so any guidance is appreciated. I didnt even know that you had to deal with a different website to get it until the other day. Im going to be making a deposit on ACR soon and would like to know the right steps to get things setup. Also is the bonus up to $1000 instant after you deposit or do I need a bonus code or something like that? Thx in advance

July US Online Poker Payment Processing Report

Americas Cardroom/True Poker A (A)

Americas Cardroom and True Poker continue to impress U.S. players with their quick cashout speeds. This makes seven months in a row that this Winning Poker Network pair received an A- or better. Considering the payment processing challenges in the U.S. this group deserves special recognition. The debit card issues appear to be resolved for most players. These payments arrive in about two business days once the player has a card in their possession. Cash transfers arrive in about two days also. Cash transfers carry a fee of $60-$110. Checks are arriving in 1-2 weeks by courier.

I requested a check on 6/26, and it still is nowhere to be found. ACR Rep or someone, please advise.

not sure I get how to do that. What is the blind level tab? My problem is that when I get somewhat deep in a tourney and go to click previous hand on the table I'm playing at, the previous hand is shown as a previous hand from a different table and it stops storing the most recent hands I'm playing.

When you are earning a reload bonus, it reduces your rake back. Pretty sure dollar for dollar. During my last reload bonus, my rake back was crushed. But, bonus is paid all day long, so it is nice to get paid instantly. If you clear 5 or 10 or 50 in bonus, it's nicer to have it daily instead of weekly.

I did keep track of my bonus cleared on a daily basis. You can see that under the cashier button on the main lobby page. I had to write down each night how much I had cleared so far and compare that to the amount cleared the day before.

Under the "transactions" choice in "my account," you can see the results of every single table session. Personally, I write down my account balance at the end of every night, along with any bonus earned and/or rake back. The change in account balance not caused by rake back or bonus is the result of my poker decisions.

Thanks for the response but I don't seem to see anything about rakeback in my rewards tab. All I'm seeing is information about the Vip program and showing my current level and medals. Maybe I'm not connected with the rakeback even though my affiliate is showing I am?

That definitely sounds like the regular VIP program of ACR instead of Rakeback, normally you see an overview of "The Beast" under the rewards tab and there is a link to Rakeback in the upper left just below the Americas Cardroom logo.

When you open previous hands, there is a list at the top that gives you the option to show all hands or filter it by blind level. Usually later in the tourney it shows the early blind level by default for some reason and you have to change it to show all hands.

I am fine, personally, with BBJ tables, but the rake they take out at the lower levels is really abhorrent. They take over 50% of the pot on some hands. If they addressed that, I would play at BBJ tables, but as of now I refuse.

10NL is only eligible for the Bad Beat Jackpot as the amount deducted from the pot is not enough to take a full $0.25. In order to qualify for the Beast you must play 25NL and above.

For the last 20 minutes I have been sitting in the only SNG under $20 that anyone has signed up for, a $5 DON, and it has fluctuated between 2 and 4 players registered. It's Friday night, prime time, and I can't find a SNG under $20.
I have no idea what the plan was with the systematic destruction of SNGs, but it was successful. If I can't find one on a Friday night, SNGs are officially dead. You might as well remove the category from your site.
This has been forwarded to the Tournament Director. He will comment on this.

This is something we are currently discussing. The possibility is that it could be added to the loyalty program or the Beast. Neither are decided upon, but feedback is welcome.

Any chance of my Doomswitch getting removed for the rest of the month's Beast challenge? I know I'm not good at online poker and all, but I would need to finish in the top 10 to just hope to cut my lossses in half - maybe.
No more sets over set please, or flop a set and lose to runner-runner 4-of-a-kind.
Sorry Mizzouswimmer, GoG, Duffman, Iliketoplay, and a few others, I can't donate too much more.

So you actually are not fine with it. In fact, you as so apposed to it you refuse to even play a single game ever at any BBJ table?

Anybody else having a problem with tables not opening up? When I click on "open table" for a SNG, the message comes up saying it's taking me to the table, but nothing happens. I usually have to close and reopen the software for it to work.

The bonus is applied automatically once you make your first deposit, you receive one bonus dollar for every 55 Rank Points Earned. It’s the same on both skins

This happened like 10 times in a row after closing the software. I re-installed the software again, and still the same thing. Then suddenly it worked once. Unfortunately I got blinded out of my satellite, which really was not cool.
Now I cannot get in again, same thing. Anyone else having issues? Any help would be appreciated...
<EDIT> I believe it has something to do with the expired or invalid certificate issues others have mentioned. I now occasionally get a windows menu that pops up when I try to log in...and then I went through some sort of certificate import wizard that seems to have temporarily worked...But I don't know if this will work each time, and don't want to have to go thru a crazy process each time I log in...I hope the site sorts out this issue soon.
This was fixed last Friday, it was an issue with a HTTPS security certificate that was renewed but was caching.

Yes, that is possible and you don’t have to rake X amount before being able to cashout, nevertheless, all cashouts are subject to review.

Your accrued Rakeback can be found in the Rewards tab by clicking on “Rakeback” and every Rakeback transaction paid to your account can be found by clicking on the “ My accounts” tab>Transactions. All you need to do is filter the date range. Payments are every Wednesday’s.

We are currently developing a full Time Bank System. We also will look into this issue with the HH when you’re deep in tournaments.

You can redeem your points for cash: 60 combat points for every $1.00 in Tournament Entry into any tournament. You just need to contact our support team so they can apply this at the time you want to register. Any RakeBack player decides to, a one-time account conversion to the loyalty program is possible, simply PM your username.

Again?

I started a tournament at 1200 Eastern US time, and around 1305 up popped the infamous warning, and all the tables were shut down. I was 4th of 21 remaining players.

Since you don't show the scheduled tournaments more than a few hours in advance, my plan was to play this one, get some other things down this afternoon, then check this list again early this everying.

Please fix these server problems, and start listing the scheduled tournanets for the next 24 hours (even 12 hours would be nice).

EDIT: Tournament number was 609700.
EDIT #2. I changed my settings to look for tournaments that are running, and I found my table, but it's frozen. Someone responded when I typed in chat, so maybe some people are waiting and others have left, I don't know. A chat message from support to the tables would seem to be in order.

Hot $50 Bonus

Are you ready to destroy the felt? It's crazy hot outside and the best way to spend your time in the shade is by playing poker with a FREE $50 Bonus. Here's how you keep track of it:

• Click the Rewards tab, followed by Bonuses.
• On the Bonus Cash Available you will find the amount credited.
• Follow your progress as you earn out your bonus.
• That's it.


I have never deposited at ACR. I see they mention i have a 50 dollar bonus. But I assume i have to deposit real money first in order to get this bonus? Or is this a free 50 dollars to play and then clear the bonus?

I got the same email (as rakeback player), you don't necessarily have to deposit to get the bonus ... it does have a play through requirement to get released and that is only possible on the real money tables. I don't have a "bonus" tab under Rewards though, the "bonus" is just shown in the cashier under Bonuses and Rebates.
