teach me...i'm in US (can u teach me?)

After about 2 months my 600$ pending moneybookers cashout was processed succesfully.

@gofast36: unless you need some cashflow asap, I'd not be doing this. My first cashout took three weeks and the second only 6 days. Apparently things are speeding so I wouldn't be a thief of my wallet, your bankroll that is. Probably that's not even an expression in English but I reckon you know what I mean.

Update guys im a uk player requested last of my roll 23-6 through moneybookers recieved about 1hr ago. Good luck all with your cashouts , but for me goodbye cake as i emailed them , this is a disgusting way to run a bussines how they can expect to keep players is beyond me. Hopefully soon you guys will be able to play real poker again.GG.

Does anyone else have rakeback here with Pocket Fives? Recently, they stopped running promotions for sites that accept US players, including Cake Poker.

However, they continued running rake races for August via TheNuts.com. I am wondering if anyone has been paid yet from last week's race? Do I need to do something special, such as create an account or email support, in order to collect this money?

When does TheNuts.com typically payout their rake races?

How do other cake skins pay out faster then Cake? And about checks bouncing my last check bounced and didn't clear, but this was over a year ago.

I also didn't receive payment for last week's Rake Race. That's a first. Don't know what's going on.

Just received a 10k withdrawal requested on june 28

Check is being processed finally after much pleading and emailing with support.

American player, requested at end of May for 3k.

If only cashouts would speed up...I actually like playing on the site.

good luck everyone

I feel the same way, Bull. A year ago I was tired of playing against 90% nitty regs on PokerStars and, when I migrated to Cake, I really felt I had found my place. The software is good-looking and quite friendly (in spite of the occasional bugs), the bonuses and promotions are awesome and amount to up to 40% rakeback all told, and the reg-to-fish ratio is also much more attractive. I've been winning consistently at NL50-NL100-NL200, but I figured it's time I took my business elsewhere, and much to my dismay I'm now a reg at PartyPoker... very annoying elsewhere, no rakeback, worse promotions, greater reg percentage. It's a real bummer. But a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.

I still have 14.4K I'm trying to cashout and I hope I can until the end of the year. That being said, I for one hold no grudge against Cake. If I ever notice things are finally looking up there and Neteller cashouts are back to the 2-3 day delay only (as before Black Friday), I will give Cake another crack at it.

Very annoying software*

Why not play on pokerstars? If you are able to play on PP, then PS is at least another, if not a better option.

I'm sure some European fish/addicts from FT must have migrated to PS at least. Regs are a problem, but at 25NL - 50NL, it is still fairly reasonable with 10NL still being fairly easy.

Their VIP deal is ok if you can pull off a Platinum star, and their cashouts timeframes are super fast.

Either way it is your decision but going from Pokerstars to Cake to Party Poker does not seem like a good progression. I started on FT then played on Cake until games died, then Pokerstars until BF, and now RPM.

RPM is very similar to old Cake FWIW.

check req 5/25
check received 8/16
check Bounced 8/19

still awaiting response from customer support... this is a nightmare

Damnit Cake , how can you do this. Phukin idiots. Tilts me reading this sorry to hear.

sorry to hear...tilting for sure!F**K 'em!

I do play cash games on PokerStars on a regular basis, namely PLO25. I like to keep two separate bankrolls for my NL100 and PLO25, thus the reason why I'm playing NLHE at Party.

But just for the record, PokerStars' VIP program is way worse than PartyPoker's. As a cash game player, you only get 21% rakeback equivalent as Platinum, 29% as Supernova and 42% as Supernova Elite. And becoming SNE is super hard and takes a year of grinding 18-24 tables of NL200 at least 7 hours a day, non-stop.

On PartyPoker however, you can reach Palladium Elite status in 3 months and be eligible for 50% rakeback equivalent bonuses. And it's quite possible to achieve that by playing as low as NL50.

Cake's rewards are better than PS and PP though, especially with all the fish

skyfyre, this sucks big, big time.. I'm sorry for that

please keep us posted... I'm sure we all want to know how that will develop

so several of their checks are bouncing...and i also withdrew on 5/25, great.

You sure supernova elite is just 42% and supernova 29% ? I think you're wrong here. ¿ Supernovalite = 70% and supernova = 40% ?

lol that not right at all supernova elite is equivalent to 80% rb

Jason, do you believe in the tooth fairy as well?

This 80% rakeback talk for SNEs is a fairy tale.

This link features an immense rake analysis. Scroll down directly to "Table 7: 6-Max Cash Rake Compensation for each level of the VIP club".

PlatinumStar 21.0%, Supernova 29.7% and Supernova Elite 42.4%

Table 7 is not including milestone bonuses anyway. But I think it's true the system is designed to encourage players to achieve a higher vip status.

I'm wondering if this is true or fake --> http://www.fpppro.com/pokerstars-rakeback.php

You're right, geometry. That table doesn't count the Milestone bonuses. And also not the freeroll value either. So it's gotta be way more than 42%.

But I guess one thing hasn't changed: unless you're an SNE, there are quite a few better rakeback deals out there than PokerStars.

And this link you sent... it looks real to me.

PLease clean these last posts up MOds. These guys are killing the thread. Its not rakeback f thread

Any updates on Neteller withdrawals? Saw one person got theirs in 6 days but whats the average time?

Is it really that bad that people are right selling their money for 50c on the dollar?
