Blackcard-support seems to be terribad - I asked a simple question 6 days ago and still no response. This never happened to me with normal FullTilt support.

You need to connect to a server/pc outside of the US via VPN.

Postal adress still in US - I imagine plenty of deposit/redraw issues as well.
Pretty risky if alot of money involved imo.

And why do they need VPN to play on FTP?

holy ****ing doomswitch. i have never seen anything like this. 42 BIs below ev in past 5 days (down 60 BIs). a million coolers and suckouts where i'm pot committed. everyone hitting everything. i'm probably 10 for 40 in coinflips today. all this happened as soon as i bought a cash bonus on stars. so stupid of me to do that. it happens every time. always use concierge, never buy the bonus.

theyre talking about the poker bill that's going to be passed that will give U.S. players a 15 month blackout period.

This.
You use neteller or moneybookers card, to withdraw money.

There can be some issues with adress, but if you have a VPN f.e in Great Britain, you can just change your P* or ftp adress to some in GB. If support asks you about that, you can say you travel around the world, and you are temporarly in other country.

I heard it works/ed in australia or smth.


Or you can say (like me) that poker is kind of illegal in your country (poland) and you have vpn for protection

you need proof of address. seriously.
you also need proof of address for moneybookers and neteller; actually you basically need a real address as mb send you a mail letter with confirmation code to validate your account; and obv you'd need an address for them to send the mastercard to. For neteller you have to prove your address online by sending docs and having an online chat session with one of their support staff.

for poker websites usually you need a bank statement, mobile phone bill or electricity bill less than 3 month old showing an address matching the address you registered with the website.

you're Polish, it's different. Moneybookers and Neteller are illegal in the USA (at least for gambling). At the very least they won't be able to move money in/out the websites if they just get a VPN.

For a short time it might work; PS once blocked one of my bank transfer withdrawal while I was in Thailand, they asked me what's up, just told them I was on holiday, they didn't ask for any docs said it was ok and authorised the transfer.

They (ps/ft)'re doing the, uh, less legal way, right now because there's no option for operating legaly in the US; but if PS/FT want to go legal they certainly won't help Americans dodging the law while at the same time negociating for their operating licenses (or wathever it is they need).

With legit euro sites/bookmakers like Bwin you have to prove your address before you can do your first withdrawal; and they even ask for 2 pieces of ID iirc, copy of a state issued one and copy of an utility bill.

also gotta love blackcard support, almost instant communication

We've reviewed your tournaments and found you experienced connection issues while playing. As a courtesy, we've credited your account with the buy-ins for tournaments in Tournament Dollars (T$), for a total of T$305.50.

Yeah, I know what you mean, but if u have this problems u can go to GB for a month or two and give'em that "temporary" adress as your current.
You can even send a copy of utility bill that way, w your GB adress.
Than you go back to US, and connect to room via vpn.


I just came up with that idea, so it has some leaks i guess. But it is an option imo

edit:
there gonna be problems w ID, but it is still doable

Since moving to stars i have had instant communication back the couple of times ive contacted them. I always found FTP support ridic slow. I'm glad black card is better but seriously that's how it should be. We pay $100k a year in rake and they can't even get back to us sometimes, it's not acceptable and we shouldn't accept any less than what's going on now.

If your 15 month thing goes throw I would be looking at renting a room out in Canada to a US poker player, could work out something cheap... Have to play COD or NHL 11 though as well hahaha...
