I see there is a 50% reload bonus up to 300. Can I just withdraw 600, redoposit it and get the bonus?

They don't even have low stakes tournaments like a 11 dollar 3k gtd tournament minimum. So how do you even play full time if thats the case? Do you mean you are full time recreational player? The biggest buyin tournament they have is a 16.50 with a 4k guarantee and thats once a week. I dont think someone that grinds micro stakes tournaments could even play on juicy stakes/intertops only if they only had one site to play on.
I understand your confusion.

One of my projects over the last year has been to give myself as many options to play as possible so that I can play wherever and whenever I want, live and online. I had $40 that had been sitting on Juicy Stakes Poker for two years, and I decided to grind it up, using good bankroll management, which meant a lot of $1 tournaments. I now have $480 there.

Now I have two online sites that allow HUDs. I live 7 miles from a charity poker room, so that's a live option, but only Thursday through Monday. Michigan is very close to state-regulated poker (I've been following the hearings in the legislature.) I'm 60 miles from a casino that will be opening a poker room in October.

If all of those pieces come together I probably won't need Juicy Stakes Poker. Maybe I don't need it now, but I like keeping my options open.

I completely agree that having your options spread over many sites if your playing online is the best. When crap goes down like recently on ACR you have other sites to play on for awhile. "ACR is down, no prob I'll just play a little Chico, Ignition or even Global." Trust me, your sanity will thank me later. If you're one of the BEAST rakeback runners than I guess ACR being down really hurts but most of the complaints i've seen on this thread are from tourney players and not cash. Sure MTT structures are different between these sites but it is better than complaining for weeks with no significant progress happening. Or if the unthinkable and you lose all of your funds because your bankroll was only on one site and it goes down or halts for any significant amount of time.

Sorry if this has been answered already. Can a live cage seat won be transferred and sold? Or is it a must play?


edit: nevermind i see now its a must play.

I'm still willing to wager on that "They'll be out of business in 2 years" comment. We can escrow and all that fun stuff.

I got no action trying to place a bet on their demise too, really unfortunate. You'd think all these people that are so quick to bash on WPN any chance possible would be more than willing to stand behind their claims w/ a solid wager.

Did you try calling the credit card company to see if they are blocking it from their end?

My Visa deposits go through fine majority of the time, but sometimes I have to call them to have them unblock it when it gets denied.

Every time I deposited, I've used a credit card. Sometimes it doesn't go through the first time, and my credit card company is asking me to confirm the purchase, but it always goes through eventually on one of my cards.

Personally, I would talk to support if you have questions, but if you refuse to do that, well...

How are the 10NL games here these days compared to Ignition and BetOnline?
[WPN] Americas Cardroom, BCP, TruePoker Ex-Official Discussion Thread Quote
05-21-2018 , 09:27 PM
IMO Betonline is softest lately, I think due to them getting rid of the lower games, but ACR 10NL is not super crazy if you game select a bit.

Certainly I see more aggression, more bluff raises on the flop and turn, more 3betting etc, at ACR 10NL vs the other 2, but it's not too bad if you are paying attention to player tendencies. If you play back at them, most of the regs won't try and pick on you.

It helps being able to run PT4 also (I just use holdem indicator with BOL and no HUD on Ignition).

ACR is still probably the toughest of the 3 though.

I have one last open account on pokerhost, I won some money last week but couldnt cash out until monday. Well i thought
thats weak but ok, cashed out monday. Same thing this week, but no, one cash a week with bitcoin. I asked chat about this and the told me to use other options, or wait a day. Well to me the other options are not options. Checks cost money getting them and cashing them. Money gram wont do it,they flagged me for poker.
Are all wpn sites like this too? And why? I can send them a hundred bitcoin transfers, but they can only send one a week? I smell bs. The lack of tables and the way they handle business is just below what I want to deal with, so i excluded another site. If this is normal for online poker than i guess its not for me, or are legal sites much better about cash outs and games? Do I just have to wait 10 years for it to be legal in California?

I got a cashout rejected for it being within 7 days on Acr, I did manage to sneak one through by cashing out 2 hours before the 7 day limit had passed by accident and then emailing them and it got approved.

FWIW, $22 is an interesting number. $22 tournaments are the Holdem Manager line that decides whether you need the small stakes version or the one for higher stakes (you pay less for the low stakes version.) I only play tournaments so I don't know what the number is for cash games.

Thanks. Yeah, I'm getting ready to take a 25NL shot on Ignition and BetOnline but I know from past experience that WPN is a different beast and I would play 10NL on there with PT4 set up to really work on my game and analyze it deeply.

Even though my winrate is much higher on Ignition than BetOnline (my Ignition winrate is 12bb/100 @ 10NL) I have to agree with you in that the BO cash games are probably the most profitable games since they removed everything below 10NL. There are guys playing 25NL now who clearly have never played that high before and that's also the level the progressive rake race begins at, too.
