Haven't recieved a thing..

I indeed got the same email as well. Though "providing" an initial bankroll of $25 to rake off the previous WinCake bankroll seems somewhat "ambitious". Are they afraid of chip dumping? Otherwise it would make sense to actually provide the bankroll from WinCake on Juicy and then out requirements on before someone can withdraw (assuming it's a few hundred bucks).

Cliffs: Ridiculous offer, which only helps themselves.

Wincake and Euroclubpoker are on the same license in the UK. The Wincake website says Euroclubpoker is its parent company on the network. UKGC says the license is still active for Wincake.

They refused to answer to the question of what happens to the pending money.

How much do you have there ? Cos I have there about $750 and they offered me $100 to start with. I assume more than 2k ?

The offer is not so bad tho IMHO if you're still playing poker regurarly and you don't mind play on Revolution network which I don't cos I have been on Intertops last 2 years.

Basically you have +19% rakeback compared to standard terms and $100 bonus ($250 in your case), both of these are money which you wouldn't have otherwise. With welcome bonus and FPP race you get 75-80% RB, even if you don't make it to FPP chart, still over 70%.

I'm probably going for it.

The rake you have to produce to have access to your funds is NET rake, so GROSS rake- promotions, bonus= NET rake that you have to produce at 150% of your balance to bet able to withdraw all of it

I had 1.5k, most of it pending about two years. I got 100, that I dont consider as a bonus. I think this is like a .33 deal.

I know but that is applied only to the initial bonus according to their mail. Count with me and correct me if I'm wrong. I have 750 on cake. Deal is I get 100 first to play with and I will be clearing the rest (650) as 55% RB. So I have to rake $1182 (gross). 1182-75%=295 (net rake), which is more than enough to meet 150% criterion (in my case $150).

It's total bull **** is what it is. Total disgrace. thieving B*****RS

Now they emptied my account Has this happened to anyone else?

Emptied which account? WinCake after accepting their proposal?
You mean WinCake, because they have been behind a lot wi their withdrawals, amirite?

100% very bad idea to accept there proposal, You will never get your money. Intertops trying to rob players again same as they did when they took over juicy stakes.

They want to take over network and once again don't want to honour Win Cake player balances

I for one will not be accepting anything

I also converted my account. Got $25, but my pending withdrawal of $120 had vanished.

Aren't WinCake balances essentially playmoney at this point? Seems like you're being offered something for nothing.

My account on Wincake was already disabled today, before any deal (i was receiving some message about contacting support). I decided to accept the deal cause i didn't had other choice. I got 250$ to try to clear my 3700$ on Cake. With bankroll so low, probably it is going to take forever, but for me it is better like this, than dead money sitting on non-existing site. I hope it will be enough traffic to clear this "bonus" in a year or two.

I noticed as well I was unable to login to the wincake.com site with my account. Anyways, whatever happens anymore I'm not surprised from wincake. They can do whatever they please with my account and my $ as they've been doing for years now.

Wincake already made its move a long time ago how it wants things to get handled and that is how they will be handled. At the end without wincake I would've had one less thing to look forward before I part with this world, which by the way goes so quickly....

As I said it has been years since they've choose to go criminal on me. I'll be very busy that's for sure...and this thing goes beyond wincake. Hopefully when everything is said and done, the generations ahead won't be as ignorant to go steal dirt $ and lose so much more in the process. Yes, whatever they are doing with Juicy Stakes I hope they are trying to dig themselves from the hole they've put themselves in.

As I understood, Your money are pending like some bonus.. When You clear some chunk they will release another until is all transferred to your new account. They told me that I can't see how much is left, but I can ask support any time and they will told me.

This, according to them, is a win-win situation, cause you will get your money after a long run and they will earn (much more than you) in the process. I agree that is not quite fair proposal because u will get 36% rake anyway by playing on their site, so 19% increase (u will get 55% rakeback until u clear the deal) is the actual dynamic of releasing your own money. I think I was getting similar thing when I was using rakeback AND reload bonus on Cake.

But if this deal means more traffic at this site, it is possible for me to clear this in two years, which is much shorter than the period of my money are stuck on the dead Cake site.

That is how I think about that. I hope it is clearer now, for someone who didn't knew what is going on...

If we don't want this offer, do we have to contact juicy stakes?

Keep waiting for WinCake to pay you then, because they have done such a superb job with that in the last two years.

While I don't think that the deal will be good for many players, it would be stupid to deny the track record of Intertops when it comes to payouts (even during the Lock debacle blowing up in full force). Also those expecting to have their balances moved over completely and getting it out without any kind of requirement ... what sense would that make for the site? WinCake has not paid out in quite some time so they likely don't have the funds, but another site should supposedly give away free money instead? They will obviously require something in return to make the deal somewhat profitable.

Translation:be grateful for being robbed.

Win Cake in the UK (Wincake.co.uk) is no longer offering services to players in your region. We would like to inform you that your Win Cake account has been securely transferred to Euro Club Poker.
Euro Club Poker (Euroclubpoker.com) offers all the same games, flagship tournaments and Gold rewards you’ve come to love at Win Cake. And we’re certain you’re going to love it.


27/01/16

Dear player, It is with great regret that we announce that we will unable to facilitate real money poker play for our UK based players from today, January 27th. Our intention is to offer the service again in the very near future and will of course keep you updated on when our UK services are reopened.
For the moment, we have disabled access to our real money tables and tournaments. You will still be able to login to the software, access the cashier and request a withdrawal of funds if you wish to do so. As soon as we are able to open real money play again, we will disable these restrictions.

I assume they've had their UK licence cancelled.

Going to www.wincake.com takes me to www.juicystakes.eu, and going to www.wincake.co.uk receives Firefox message of:

Aren't you that guy who bought Wincake chips for 20c (or whatever) per dollar and tried to dump a 5-digit amount over to Intertops for withdrawal two times, just to get caught two times? Is that why you mad, bro?
Just asking.

It looks like .co.uk now redirects to Juicy Stakes too. I noticed a few days ago that the security certificate for Win Cake expired in 2015.
