Yeh,

Governed by Phil Nagy and his crew of crooks. Phil personally says thanks for building his new pool.

Whether or not you're being scammed you decided to play against the casino, you knew what would happen.

141 out of 200 seems plenty probable

After you qualify for the satty, register for it manually before they try to award you the entry (usually on Tuesdays). Then when they try to enter you, it fails because you are already registered, so they give you $55 tourney bucks instead. After the tourney bucks show up, be sure to un-register and get your other $55 back.
Well ok wait...I play on ACR...and I am referring to the sit & crush race seat you earn weekly in the $55 live cage satty. I have tried to unreg and a message pops up that it is impossible. And then chat support echoes that. So....Idk, maybe it is diff?

Yup, and anyone who thinks such an outcome automatically means they're being scammed probably shouldn't be gambling in the first place.

Anyone have any experience cashing out a check on ACR? If so, how long did it take to receive it?

Yes, I am talking about ACR. It sounds like you are trying to unregister the entry that was done automatically by ACR. You have to register for the tourney BEFORE they try to do that for you.

In my experience, I know that I am due an entry after the previous weeks promo is finished (on Saturday mornings). The entry is for the tournament two Sundays away. I register for that tourney with cash. A few days later ACR tries to enter me in the same tournament and can't because I already registered in it myself; so instead they put $55 tourney bucks in my account.

After I see the tourney bucks show up, I unregister from the tournament to get that cash back.

Unless you meant WPN sites specifically, in which case, I'm not too sure.

I still love how the biggest tournament on Sundays is the "Sunday Warmup." What are we warming up for if that's the biggest guarantee of the day?

I am relatively new to online poker and have been playing on Ignition and Bovada. I am thinking about switching over to ACR so I can use a HUD.

Can anyone that uses ACR please let me know what they think of it?

I spoke with Grettel from support today and she stated that this is not true.
WSOP step tickets you hold will be converted into tickets for their next SnG promotion, the details of which have not been released.

Again you cannot redeem WSOP step tickets for TB. Your tickets will buy you into the tournaments to be announced. She stated an e-mail detailing the options you have with your tickets is going to be sent to all who hold WSOP step tickets after the promotion is complete.

I would never consider switching to ACR vs any other site. They openly allow bots to play and the games aren't worth it any longer. Your HUD will only show how nitty the games are. I'd advise to play elsewhere.

They do not openly allow bots.

If you are relatively new to online poker and have been playing on Ig/Bo, then you will find America's Cardroom a more difficult place to play. Due o the high rewards/rakeback/rake races there is a lower fish:reg ratio. Also the fact that HUDs are used/allowed also contributes to more regs per table, on average, than Ig/Bo.

In effect, you will find the games more difficult. Your winrate will be lower (or your loss rate higher) in the games in terms of bb/100, ROI%, etc.

Now, on the plus side, depending on what stakes you play, the rake may be lower at ACR. Furthermore the addition of rakeback will further offset your losses on the table due to tougher games. In some cases it can be a net win for players, though for someone of a lower skill level like I presume you are, it may not be enough to make ACR a better choice from the standpoint of profitability.

Again, with all of that said, playing in tougher games can be good for you long-term. Assuming that you use the information from using a HUD and tracking database in these tougher games and increase your skill level overall.
