Anybody ever play on Lock Poker? Thinking about playing at this site and wanted to see if I could get any feedback on it.

I play there and have played for a while, since they started and were with Cake. They are Mac compatible so I like it. Most people say the rakeback system sucks and you don't get enough back. I do not put in a lot of volume there, and check out what others say about the Merge network as well.

There are quite a few threads about them.

Do one search for lockpoker, and one for "lock poker".

Hi everyone. New to this site. Was wondering if anyone has any good/bad to say about Lock Poker. Been playing there for about a month. Wanted to make a withdrawl of $2000.00. Sent them all the verification. They keep telling me that they are backed up with requests. I put in my request on 2/10. Is this normal? Should I be worried? Is their anything I can do except sit and be patient. I played almost 800 S&G's. Thanks for the help

Recently the Merge network has been experiencing withdrawal delays. To my knowledge this has affected every skin, including Lock Poker. I am also waiting for my first cashout (via check, was approved yesterday after four to five days of "pending").

Just cashed out from Lock wasnt my first cashout money hit ewallet within 12 hours

thanks for the replies. I've been waiting since last Thursday morning. So its been over a week. I guess I just have to be patient. Will let eveyone know if or when it works out

Hello everyone, I'm the new Poker Room manager from Lock Poker. As Markdirt said, there have been some slight delays with cashouts via check across the entire network. Ewallet cashouts as Pokemonkid said have been fairly quick to process.

There has been a surge of new players on the network, which is great since the game selection has become better and the games have generally become softer. Historically I have always gotten my checks within 1-2 weeks of requesting them, and I'm optimistic we will get back to that sort of time frame very soon.

From my experience Merge has had consistent problems with cashouts. There seems to be a processing problem every few months. Merge handles the funds so the skin managers are limited in what they can do besides make excuses and pretend this is not an on going problem.

I requested a UMW withdrawl,not a check. Sent them my verification. They just keep telling me about the delays and apologize for this. I will keep everyone up to date. Thanks for help people. I appreciate it

Obviously I'm biased, but personally I've been playing on Merge for almost a year now and while I've certainly had a few issues with cashouts, my experience has actually been far more consistent with them than with other sites.

I'm new to all this. Still learning all the basics. It will take me a year to consider myself just wet behind the ears. LOL Wasn't sure how long withdrawls would take since I have no experiance. Just seemed odd that I put in a request on 2/10 and its yet to be approved. Will be reading and learning on here

My USM withdrawal went through today. Requested on 2/10 so not sure if thats the normal time frame for it since I have no experiance. So all is good

good to hear.. i've yet to deposit but have played some of the omaha freerolls and do like the site.

Do you guys have any table scanners for Lockpoker ?

i dont know if you can use the scanner but i for tournaments you can use your sharkscope

Yes thanks , but i looking for cash-games only : (

Can anyone give me any information on this site? I just noticed it today. Thanks.

check out their website as well. i play their and enjoy it. typical merge skin imo. might want to compare their bonuses/offers with other merge skins. i might switch soon since i feel like i'm missing out on some promotions, but honestly i'm not really sure (a little lazy myself imo).

Haha thanks, and I can't help it that I'm lazy... I was born this way. haha

Xsv - I'm the Poker Room Manager over at Lock Poker. What markdirt says is true, although we do offer some promotions other skins do not. I'm not sure how much I'm allowed to say here (and apologies to the admins if I overstep at all) but we have a pretty big rake chase coming up next month that will also award a WSOP ME seat, just as an example of some of the unique things we're doing. I would be happy to answer any Lock related questions here or via private message.

I was signing up for Lock Poker and all it asks for is basically an e-mail address and screen name. How do I sign up for rakeback?

pretty sure you automatically get rb

I am new here, and new to Lock Poker. I was playing micro stakes this week and was at a table where 4 players would post big blind, then sit out for small blind. As soon as the hands were dealt they would hop back in, thus avoiding the small blind. I have never seen this before, but it appeared they were dodging the small blind consistently. Is this legal? Again, this is micro stakes and the small blinds are very small. Am I missing anything? It just didn't seem right to me. Wanted to hear feedback from more experienced players, and find out if this is standard or just happening at Lock. Thank you in advance for any and all feedback.

just wanted to say after the first delay all my withdrawls have been like lightning. Very happy at Lock. Doing ok. Still trying to learn since I still am very new to all this. rb is good. totally happy
