cause those of us who live in vegas and have often played various station casinos hate having to play shorthanded, and if they offer 6 max tables, we will be forced to play them even if we hate them cause it will kill the 9 handed games.

So you're saying people who play below 100nl are station casino regulars? But those above aren't?

Judging from the last go around, I'd say about 350.

scotty, since you cant tell us the start up date for the 2.0 version, can you at least confirm it will definitely be BEFORE august 1...that would narrow it down a bit.
Also , when are we going to see some of the promotions from the summer million promotion , or do we have to wait for the 2.0 version there too

P.S. I meant new info, not the $50 bonus that you already discussed..
I realize that is the first promotion from the new ones. I am wondering about the MTTs with an overlay, and VIP points(at what rate they will be earned, what they can be used for)

I'm guessing I will give you all 24 hours notice to the next promo before it goes live.

How about an Ultimate Poker party at one of the Stations Casino's?

It would be a good opportunity for the reg players to meet and would give you guys a chance to let players know whatever plans you have with the site that you'd like to share. And of course drinks are always good for everyone.

edit: anytime between July 12th to 15th would be perfect.

As Hood mentioned, it's called contributed rake when it is based on your contribution to rake, but I've never, ever heard of a site that required you to win the pot for it to count.

Be careful about using CC's. Unless it is a pre-paid card, or maybe a debit card, it is treated as a cash advance with fees and interest from the first second.

Scotty I just want it to be noted I just deposited using e-check...Last time I used it it bounced for no reason (used electronic transfer routing number) however this time I used a different routing number (one that is on a physical BoA check) I don't want this to complicate the $50 bonus. If I can call you to run my VISA debit card just in case let me know.

I know this has probably been asked before, but why are the daily freerolls, like the Staycations Package, the $1M points satellite, and the $10K satellite sometimes there and sometimes not?

The main reason we ask for your SSN is for age verification, but we are actually REQUIRED to collect SSN if you are a United States Citizen. Per Nevada Regulation 5A.110.2.d (http://gaming.nv.gov/modules/showdoc...ocumentid=2942), we can only register you if you provide your Social Security Number.

Our player care team, our supervisors, Stations team members and supervisors cannot even see it. Furthermore, it is encrypted in our database, so were anyone able to access our database, they wouldn't be able to get your SSN from it. We work very hard to ensure the security, privacy and integrity of your information.

I'm confused and can't find the answer to this quesiton anywhere. I don't have a SSN because I'm not American. The OP says: "we are actually REQUIRED to collect SSN if you are a United States Citizen"...alright, well I'm not a US citizen.

But then it says: "we can only register you if you provide your Social Security Number."

So which is it? Can I play without a SSN (cuz i don't have one)?

Are players outside of Nevada allowed to take part in these? Are they on the facebook UP?

I think the answer was: They manually add them, & sometimes forget.

Visa didn't work for me either. Nor do I want it to if there are cash advance fees!
