Yeah we will see how big of an "idiot" I am when I take down the site. By the way, when you call someone an idiot and you can't even spell right makes you look intelligent. Pretty obvious that you are somewhat affiliated with Lock Poker. Who would take their time to stick up for a company that has 100's and 1000's of complaints on them? I'll tell you, someone who is benefiting for Lock being up.

I took you up on this, went around asking at random cash tables (1 10 nl table, 2 50nl tables, 2 100 nl tables and 1 200nl table) and nobody could confirm to me that they had been paid. One person did say that someone at his table said they had been paid in 3 weeks, but he did also say that he did not know whether to believe the guy or not.

I just started playing on lock again and won some cash fast just wondering if this is going to come back or i am just wasting my time playing on this site any input would be nice! I also i have heard from a few players on there that they have been cashed out in 3 weeks dont know to believe them or not. Also last night i talked to some regs and they said they have been waiting for a year now don't know what to believe and yes i have been searching all the threads of this but hope they get it together for the sake of all of us.

you say that you been searching all of these threads but you are still asking for input?? did you actually read anything in these threads that you searched? its entirely possible that those people have been paid, but thats hardly the norm they are just the lucky few.

I recently played at lock again after writing it totally off and forgeting about the 270 i had left on there when i started to see the horror stories here i figured f it. I play mostly in jersey now as i have a house at the shore and go there from nyc three out of seven days. But when i'm in ny I can't play there so i decided instead of redepositing at carbon or acr I just fool around at lock. No one is getting paid from the table chats i have had and some are waiting as long or longer then what i see posted here. It's almost a joke winning any money there as far as i can tell , i even sat in on a 1/2 game where everyone at the table was basically just playing all in coinflip with hundreds of dollars.

I talked to about 40 people in total no one has recieved payment yet, half of those were new and didn't know there was a problem, i directed those unfortunate few here. I'm just playing there for a fix until i get to jersey on my off days. No expectations of cashing out. I actually feel bad for some of the guys on there still playing who have all their money locked up on that site, they have no recourse. I dont know that guy who does all the updates but i tell people about this thread and about him. It's amazing that some people have no idea and are signing up and depositing there.

we should all just log into lock poker and inform all players via chat of this scam. im tired of the lies and all the bs.

I disagree.

^^ Even I have to give a stick tap to that one.

Updated through 12-30-13

Number of players with pending cashouts reported: 273 (up 3 players)

To date, 38 players from this report have received owed payouts from Lock since I initially PM'd all on the list regarding Shane's offer (Nov 1st).



MORE NOTES

Please read the linked post below for full details on how to submit for this report: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/sh...&postcount=527

Additional note guys - if you PM me referring to a previous conversation we've had, please click "reply" (NOT QUICK REPLY!!!) so that your previous message to me is quoted to refresh my memory. I just once again cleared out my 2+2 inbox and I go through dozens of PM's a day...it just helps me a bit to have that convo we've had quoted so I can answer whatever your question might be as quickly as I can.

ALSO - I have completed the process of the latest verification. All 273 players on the list currently are 100% re-confirmed.

Holy Moly- 273 and growing!!!

Do you have any contact with their rep about what is going on? It seems as though there was a first wave of about 25 or so players payed in a week or two. And then back to 1 or 2 cash outs a week. Their house shill/pro ScamoAA has apparently headed for the hills after making a bunch of bull **** promises to get to the bottom of things. Its very odd that they are very public in making big promises and then never follow thru.

I agree this is a complete joke. Its bad enough that all of us will never get paid or a few will here and there so it looks like they are paying people. They need to be shut down so they quit getting people to deposit on their crap site. Jen Larson will hopefully be in jail soon enough and all these lying employees can join her.

I have a little on lock yet, went to see if I could chat with current players. Looked to me that chat has been disabled.

Here's my solution to this cut your loses and cash out via 2p2 stop playing the site you can not save everyone for depositing there which i feel for the ones that do. There doors will be closed soon enough. When Jen Larson dose go to jail and a say "When" the site will close down anyways which will be the best for everyone IMO. There is no point to keep talking about this by now everyone should know that there money is floating somewhere is space. Ever since that site had left merge it's been one huge scam which i 'am sure you all know by now or should know. Hope you all do get paid and that's all anyone can do at this juncture of all junctors.

Been waiting for check from Lock since May 2nd for $1,222 (US player) with another 23k in account. Noticed a lot of the higher playing regulars have exited-some with huge bankrolls (150k). Even their store is closed. I did get a damn shirt and sweatshirt in Sept. in their poker lotto. I am not allowed to request another check while the current one is being processed. Lock does answer e-mails promptly with a standard reply: they are having problems with their processors and the problem will be resolved shortly. Recently, they are having serious computer glitches.

That's a lie

How?

I haven't spoken to Shane except via email in the past few weeks (he'll respond with "Thanks for sending these over Ive added them and contacted them all."). He didn't respond with even that on the last wave I sent him on 12-26.

I did speak to Primo via Skype, though. He was going to push his contact(s) at Lock to get the longest waiting players submitted to Shane via the report paid...but I haven't heard anything on that in a week or so.

After 9 months waiting a Lock cashout, after last week they told my that my payout has been marked as a priority and as soon as my funds have been send , in this night , a gift for new year : YOUR SKRILL PAYOUT REQUEST OF 10000 USD HAS BEEN DECLINED, we thank you for continued business and are always available if you should have any question.
Thanks Lock, happy new year!

how many of this more? probably it's not the single one
Maybe lock wanted to give us some gifts

Do you guys honestly think Jen Larsen will go to jail? When has any defunct deadbeat poker site owner ever done jail time previously?

Who the hell are these players that are still receiving payments? Nobody I know is getting paid. I've had a payout pending for 6 months. Nothing. They don't even email me back anymore when I ask about the status.I think they are out to screw those with 10K+ and don't play on their site anymore. I think they are just sitting back thinking, why pay those schmucks? What will it benefit us.

And, over on cards chat forum, people are saying they've received PHONE CALLS from Lock reps indicating their payouts are getting expedited and that magically after Jan 1st 2014 payout times will be IMPROVED!!!

Lock is a bunch of psychopaths. They enjoy lying to our faces over and over again, stealing your money, and they don't even care.

Of course they are. They are probably losing players who won't require any payouts and are contributing rake. I've received NOTHING in months and months and months. I'm on the list too.

SO I have a cash out that's (only) 14 weeks old requested to skrill. As of Jan 1st I can no longer use skrill as i'm Canadian what should I do?

I don't believe you for a second. I play on Lock for the hell of it several times a week, and I always ask people if they have been paid, etc. Nobody has said they received a check, and they all basically understand they are never going to get paid. Most of them have said they have pending payouts of many months. A few players become disillusioned when the rest of us tell them about Lock's condition. I see Lock Pro Rick Pereira on a $2/$4 table every once in a while. Maybe I'll ask him next time I see him.

I will say that the traffic on the site seems to have picked up slightly in the last few weeks. The tourney schedule is pretty much a joke, but there are usually about 15-20 tables going at night. I suppose this means they are generating some rake, but not enough to do anything more than cover some of their expenses, I'm afraid.

The bottom line is if they don't get more players, none of us will ever get paid, and trolls like 2agoodcause can come on and tell us they've been paid (without showing any proof) all they want, but it won't change the facts that nobody else is getting paid.

hate to burst your bubble but raking fake money yields nothing, let alone money for the site to do something with.

That shouldn't be the case, though. Their ability to pay players should never be predicated on continued deposits - but then again, this is Lock. The cycle will never end if it continues like it is now. They get away with it because there's nothing anyone can do to stop them - all you can do is keep trying to raise awareness and perhaps pressure those still signing Lock's praises to reassess the situation.

Honestly, being that it's the end of the year and we're sitting with 273 players on this report right now...I can honestly prognosticate with some degree of confidence (not happy about it obviously) that some of these players are never going to see their cashout. Whether it's the ones who've waited a year, 6 months, or ones with more recent cashouts (2-3 months or so), there will be some who remain on that list forever. Lock has shown repeatedly they have no interest in seriously addressing this list - and anyone associated with them have done the same.

I don't even disbelieve 2agood and the other couple of soulless Lock shills who spout about how Lock will ignore those owed in favor of paying out new players who play. Again, that's Lock's mantra - we've screwed so many players over already...what's another 200 or so? That's why I'm not much of a fan of having this company continue to go on unchallenged with their BS. And when it would be so easy to just stop, in terms of what I'm doing, they give me more and more reasons to keep at it. I just don't like seeing people being screwed - especially when the company doing the screwing knows the players can't do a damn thing about it.

i just read through the thread a bit and saw a cpl comments relating to a deal "shane offered". what's that deal?
