This isn't the custom anywhere in the poker world and shouldn't be the case here.
I deposited some money here and decided very quickly that I don't like the interface and the tournaments offered, so i wanted to move the remaining $1,500 of $2,500 out and now I can't. So either I will lose the money or I will run it up from there. What a pos.
Strange, many people in these very threads say that play through is actually quite common. You should probably stay away from statements like "anywhere" as all it takes is one other poker site to do what you claim they don't for your point to be completely dismissed.
Second point, either A the money isn't a big deal to you, or B you make very rash decisions. Because if I was trying something out for the first time, I am putting in like $20 and seeing what happens at the low stakes tables. That way if it turns out to not be what I want... meh I lost $20.
Third, the play though also doesn't seem to be that difficult to do if you open a few tables. Push through, and then make better decisions with money in the future.
Never (ironic I use this word) invest more money in an investment that has no guarantees than you can afford to lose. It doesn't matter how sweet the deal seems if it puts you in a bad spot, then it wasn't a sweet deal.
