I live in Pennsylvania and recently started playing for real money on sports book. A friend referred me and says he's been playing on there since post Black Friday and assures me it's a good site for us players. Just wanted some feed back on the site from the community. I don't see it listed or reviewed and wanted to know If there's anything I should know or be worried about.....thanks

Sportsbook is a Merge skin, correct?

I think they might even own the Merge network now.

Merge is trustworthy, I've never had any issues cashing out or anything.

I've been playing there since Black Friday.

Withdraws used to be very good on SB. Only about a week. Sucks right now but seems like all the poker sites are struggling with this. I've had pending withdraw for about 35 days now. But decent games to play and very easy to get customer support

They have the lowest rewards on the network (14% vs a network mandated max of 35%). They are geared more towards gamblers and recreational players heh.

Most 2+2'ers play on one of the skins represented here at 2+2. Which used to include Hero, RPM, Black chip (who are all defunct), but now is limited to the largest skin on the network Carbon Poker (and Aced it's sister skin). Here is their sponsored forum in case you wanted to look (they use the same cashier as Sportsbook).

As stated by thekid345, the 2nd link he posted is the proper thread to look for information on the "Jazette Cashier" It's different cashier from the first link he posted, which is why I created the 2nd thread

Why is it they can't block someone from using the merge (playersonly,sportsbook)casino when I need that to happen? It's so slow at the game i play 5 card draw that I have a problem losing all my money to the casino while waiting for players to sit. This is a major problem for me and all they can do is lower my max bets. I think this is completely unfair that they can't block me from the casino at my own request. All I want is poker! This is destroying me personally because I live off the poker money but I lose it all to the scam casino that I can't even block myself from. player id FenderSpecial

I been playing on PlayersOnly for over 4 to 5 years let me tell you there cash out use to take 3 days which was very lovely this is back when they first came out with the tourney king for the month, Anyways I have heard of long times to get your money, I have been playing on Bovada which takes me like 2 days to get MoneyGram and about 5 to 8 days to get check.

Is there a thread regarding PlayersOnly.ag withdrawals? I have a withdrawal at PlayersOnly.ag on 4-4 still pending. Obvious the 6-8 week time frame they give me isn't happening. I'm pretty broke and need to pay some bills. Please approve and send my check.

Can anyone please tell me what happened to all of Sportsbook Poker's big tournaments? I logged in yesterday and they didn't have the typical $215 50k guaranteed and the $500 buy in tournament. Does anyone know what happened? Thanks a lot.

They broke away from the main player pool and were obviously having issues meeeting the GTDs. If the MTTs were totally missing however, that is news to me.

They did run a 50k GTD, the buy-in was changed to $109 though.
