Just noticed Kahn's post above...so for doing transfers I am correct to send to the s/n I created, not the table name with the 2 digits that were added?

For transfers, one uses the LOGIN name (otherwise known as the USERNAME upon account creation).

I'm not sure how you ended up with 2 extra numbers at the end of your account name... perhaps it's affiliate specific?

There is a thread in the Carbon forum about the changes. You might want to voice your opinion there, as the Carbon/Aced reps are the only active Merge reps on 2+2 at this time.

Will it ever change soon? Im in one of the states that dont allow us to play on Pokerhost.


Hopefully it will all change and let all of us play there.

Thanks

Very unlikely IMO. Most states are banned b/c of certain laws they have on the books. The others that PH adds... well, anything I'd say would be pure speculation. But those "odd" states that PH bans that Merge doesn't, I personally would not expect to see changed.

Plus PH is very strict with IP checks. Unlike the old merge where you could put a different state in and be allowed to play, here they will check your IP and ban u immediately. If u cannot get verified in a different state do not even bother trying to register.

Thanks for your time.. Its sad and ridiculous. There should be another merge site that accepts it. huh if not but I do appreciate your time.

FYI, PokerHost is also participating in next month's Race for Riches promo. It looks like all non-Jazette owned skins had the opportunity to opt in this time.

Many Merge veterans will remember this promotion from last summer. However, I will not be winning it 10 of 12 times this year so there is a lot of money to be made =P

Looks like (SB) got the worst of the SNG changes... traffic is much slower than the other skins and i noticed they didn't add the VIP points buy in to all the tables either

They didn't change anything to my knowledge. They don't care IMO. I mean... they are a SportsBook

just put 20$ on and ran it up to 600+ in a few days(tired of waiting on my carbon check...). What are the best methods of withdrawl? mg/wu/bank draft and p2p are the only ones listed and one chat rep just confirmed are the only withdrawl options but i feel like this is fishy as when i talked to one before they said snail mail would eventually become an option or bank wire? bank wire i'd find hard to believe but whats the cheapest and or fastest ways to get money from them?(dunno what the p2p is going for)

I have all those options plus the direct deposit. All depends I think on how long you have been with the site on which options you get.

Ya a pop up would of been nice. I was in the money of a 11 rebuy down to like 16...

I talked to CS they just said i would get my buy in back and sorry for the inconvenience..I usually will get offered a ticket and the assurance of the money from at least cashing. I was told I would not be getting that..I think i was misinformed...So here is my question to you guys.

1. Since I am on a skin playing with other skins. I can assume that I was the only one kicked from the game for the most part and it played down to the end, right??

2. If I was in the money when there server goes down theirs no way to NOT get paid for cashing right???

Im under the impression its the whole Merge network so the remaining 16 people split the prize pool based on stack size,like a icm chop on stars..gl

It means your not an admin on the laptop your trying to install it on. Do you have multiple users with thier own logon for this computer? I am the admin for all my computers, but I don't let the wife have admin rights as she is apt to DL some crap/virus.
