From screwing myself over in the past...
As soon as you transfer a player money, you can no longer play at the same tables. I believe you need to be on the same skin as well. You also need to have an account in the same currency as the player you are transferring.
I did a transfer of 5k last year for a close friend of mine... FTP for ipokerland money. We couldn't sit in the same games anymore. Obviously they fear collusion or someone playing under 2 accounts.
Solution to this: Contact your cashback/VIP affiliate and tell them the situation. Usually they have a solution. Mine was to contact an individual working for the skin and informed them of the situation. They can do transfers in different currencies and I THINK it allows you to play at the same tables... something you may want to confirm though before it goes through... Or just use moneybookers and have them deposit on their own.
FTP used to let the shadiest transfers go down and people would play no big deal!
