PokerHost [Closing July 31 2018] - Page 7 - Internet Poker

I'm sure you understand what was meant, Kahn. By 'rakeback' posters, including me, often mean aggregate returns from all rake-based promotions - the central VIP program (up to 35%), reload bonuses (that clear at 10% and afaik can be triggered one after another at PH) and affiliate-specific promotions like rake races. Total returns may exceed 70% of generated rake at times.

There is no way he was talking about the VIP system. He mentioned his 35% rakeback to BCP in the same sentence as his 70% rakeback to PH offer. I immediately responded to his post two days ago, telling him that Merge didn't allow rakeback. He never replied to me correcting my definition of rakeback. And I think that your math is a bit of a stretch.

I think he was joking hence his "

"

The couple trades I've done here were .85 (small amount) and .9 (500, which is max weekly P2P under "normal circumstances")

Was thinking of depositing to PH but not anymore. Sounds too fishy.

When you go to the player admin, it still shows P2P transfers. Merge got rid of this. This has to be a case of "we didn't update the website", right? I can't see this rinky dinky skin having P2P and Carbon not having it.

For that matter who knows if the WU and MG withdrawal options they show are active.

Looking at starting on pokerhost hear great things. Have two questions

Are the cash games ringfenced? Or open with the rest of the network?

Do you accept players from Hawaii? My state of residency is NC however I am currently living in hawaii. No issues with other merge sites just want to double what address I should put during sign up

Thanks!

I wish I knew why this site doesn't accept players from the state of Virginia. We can play on all other merge skins and every other US facing site that I'm aware of.

Basically their owners decided against certain extra states for whatever reason. I'm sure there's a legal basis behind it but to find exactly what that is would be.... difficult, and not really accomplish much. Sorry you're excluded sir

From what I can tell, yes. Again however, note that new US players are only able to use WU/MG as checks are only made available to long-term, active players.

PokerHost no longer offers Skrill as a deposit or withdrawal option.

Neteller remains....

Exact same schedule as carbon/aced. Whether or not it's good is a subjective thing I'll leave to someone who plays micro MTTs...
