In the current processing climate, especially for US wire transfers, the fees are by far higher than usual ... remember how the "cheap" bank withdrawals worked for AP/UB, Stars and FTP in the end?

Oh, stfu already. $600 for a wire? Nearly every wire from Stars was around $50 and very occasionally $85-$110 when it went through more than one intermediary (and I'm talking about wires the size he's talking about).

The last 6 or so months Stars was wiring domestically, so the wires were within 24 hours and carried no fees to the players.

It's really not that complicated. He's from the US. He wants to know how long it will take to get money to him - BY ANY METHOD AVAILABLE.

I won a seat in a tournament via satellite tourny last night but it now looks like I will be out of town and unable to play the actual tournament. Any options for geting something like the tournament dollars that Poker Stars and Full Tilt would give when you withdrew from a tournament?

Money moves pretty fast when its being processed by a shell corporation formed by the DOJ doing an online gambling processor sting operation.

That was Quicktender. Stars wires weren't processed by the DOJ's sting.

I just downloaded the ACR client. When I launch it the lobby pops up but the lobby is blank where tables would usually be listed. At the top of the client it says Connected ! Checking protocol version.... Not sure what this could be, anyone have a clue? I do have PC tools running but I clicked allow". Also my other 3 sites and PT3 are running fine with the PC tools..but it could be that maybe?

For those concerned about cashouts - I had a good run in one of the ACROSS tourneys and was able to process a cashout over $2000. After getting some documentation to them (drivers license, utility bill) because it was a first cashout, they processed my check in less than a week and even sent it FedEx. The check is non discript (says nothing about ACR or poker) and was accepted by my bank for deposit. Now as long as it clears, totally good experience.

There seems to be two options for action alerts:

(a) Auto-switch to table on action, which makes the action table the top window of all apps (including non-poker apps like IMs, etc.)

(b) Auto-switch off, and no visual or sound cues whatsoever.

Am I missing something? Shouldn't there be a middle ground where I can turn off auto-switch but still be alerted to an action with a sound or something?

It probably might make sense but is not available yet.

Hey I noticed there has been some software updates recently..

one of them is the tourney filters are saved so i dont have to set them every time I log on.

The problem with this is although my filter specifics are saved, the list of tourneys, etc. does not update according to my preferences.. So what I have to do is uncheck and check everything over again and then the tourneys get filtered out.

Regardless Its still nice to be able to play online again.

How long does it take to get the debit card? Has anyone gotten one and successfully withdrawn with it?

Opening up the tournament window seriously reduces the stability of the client, causing continual freeze-ups and crashes.

I'd also like to know this information, I filled out the requested documents and sent them to them last week. At first I got an email from True Poker asking why I sent the documents....So that was a little worrisome that my information was confused on their end, but I will keep you updated when I get the card and try it out.

Seems unreal to cancel a GUARANTEED tourney just because u didn't "reach" enough players. I can see a satty, but regular freezeout? Cmon

A few more details would probably help to shed some light into the situation. What tournament was it and was there and number of min. players required and shown in the lobby?

it was 150 gtd 13 buy in plo. I don't care about min number of players. This isn't a satty. Just shouldn't put something on schedule and not let it run. It was like 3 hrs ago, which should be good for a sunday.

The site still hasn't gotten back to me with clarity as to how/ when I will be credited with parts of my deposit bonus. I emailed them and posted in this thread, I think it was Thursday.

Just made an account, and can't see any deposit or withdraw options. From MD (USA), is it a problem on my end or can I not play on this site?
