Thanks.

I'll just ask this again. I remember years ago when Stars said they were soon going to get deposit methods in place that would easily allow larger deposits.

It is possible to deposit $8,000 on WSOP in 5 minutes with no fees (no fees at all - no WSOP fees and no third party fees). It would take like 3 to 4 months to do that on PokerStars.

Is there a way to deposit more money on PokerStars with no fees in a reasonable amount of time?

Thanks.

posted this on twitter too:

why is there no $500 6max today? it's the same 25 regs that play it every week, you really think they're gonna skip the $400 main to play the 6max? would be nice if pokerstars would put an ounce of effort into this market instead of just auto piloting it and coasting on their software alone.

the $500 6max runs every week, it's the exact same guys every single time week in and week out. the same 3 or 4 regs start it and we start 3 handed every time. just let us play it, not a single person is going to pick this over the $400 today.
01-21-2018 , 08:10 PM
nice job putting the 6max back...but fyi, since it was so late most regs prolly won't know it's there. plus there was no satty to it.

idk if anyone is reading this, but flash a message in the lobby to tell everyone that it's now running so they reg it.

i'm cleary in it. same 3 regs started it liek usual :-)

Hello -

I thought all the processor issues were done with when NJ legalized. Apparently not. I can't cash out from PS due to processor issues. Can't cash out to my PS+ card because of "rollbacks" to echeck method. So basically I can't cash out. I feel like it's deja Vu all over again, except now it's legal to get screwed.

Anyone else have this issue? Any help would be appreciated. Sorry if this is a repeat post from a frustrated player.

Yes. There's usually 500PLO running nightly, with the occasional 1000PLO

Saw a 5000PLO running a few weeks ago, but that was short lived.

Is Pokerstars NJ run by Resorts Digital Gaming LLC? I received a 1099-MISC tax form in the mail and the only info on where it is from is the return address for Resorts Digital Gaming in Atlantic City. I'm trying to figure out what it is for as I have not played in A.C. this year and did not cash out or have any significant cashes on online NJ sites. I have played a fair bit on StarsNJ but when I submit for taxable events through their client it says I have none for 2017. Thanks.
02-06-2018 , 05:37 AM
Yes, PokerStars runs under the Resorts gaming license in NJ.

Ok, thanks. So next I have to figure out why I'm being taxed on $615 of income from them...

Thanks for the short 10 days notice of your 'Turbo Series.' I don't understand how this is enough notice for anyone but the regulars.

quick question,, i was under the assumption that people on the same network/wifi could not be seated at the same table (unless its final table) , me and my gf usually never play the same tournament , but this weekend we happened to reg for the same tourney (under the same roof) ,at slightly different times (we did not reg at the same exact time) , and we got seated at the same table , on both tourneys we played .. We are low volume players, and what worries me, is all these high volume players , which i seem to see in every tourney i play , actually doing this on a consistent basis,. what are your rules regarding this?

I think it's a lot like the main site where if it happens once in a while, it doesn't go detected, however, if it happens often enough, the accounts might get flagged.

At least I hope so...

Why does the Card Hunt button never appear when you sit at a table with two people or less? I know it's not supposed to be active until three players are in a hand, but it never becomes active at these tables. I have to leave and come back.

EDIT: I guess I was wrong about the issue being short tables because tonight it failed to show up at a full table as well. Seems you have to get lucky to be eligible for the promo at any given table.

Depends on the method you use to deposit. I use eChecks and usually hits my account in like 3 business days. Not sure about other methods though.

I can't with this support team anymore. They are now telling me that Card Match opt-in button not showing up on some or even all tables occasionally, is by design and also because I must have completed the promo before I even started.....

I don't understand where I'm being unclear. This is going to be TLDR for most people, but this forum seems to have more competent PS support than e-mail, so hoping they catch this.

Me today (after having no buttons show up on Thursday at four tables):

Today, the CM button only appears on two of the five tables I was dealt into. All full or nearly full tables. Attached are the log files & a screen shot.

Thank you for contacting us and allowing us to be of assistance.

When playing CardMatch, please keep in mind that you can win a maximum of 7 total prizes every day: one at each of the eligible stake levels on No Limit Hold'em tables.

If you are multi-tabling, it is possible for you to play multiple Game Cards at the same level simultaneously but as soon as you complete one of them, all other Game Cards at that stake level will be voided.

You can find more details, including the eligible blind levels and prizes, in the "Special Offers" section of our website or by clicking the info button on the CardMatch window.

We trust this information has been of assistance to you. If you have any additional doubts or concerns, feel free to contact us back.

Thank you for choosing PokerStars.

Fair enough. They misunderstood. My response

Quote:
I understand that. But the opt-in button should show at every table until you complete one, right? And as you can see, I hadn't completed any of them. (Otherwise ALL the buttons at that level would disappear and as you can clearly see, two of the five were available.) This was the start of my session, as it was in the original complaint when none of the four tables I sat at were available on Thursday.

You have a valid point but as we explained before, if you are multi-tabling, it is possible for you to play multiple Game Cards at the same level simultaneously (it has not been specified if all of them can run at the same time if if there is a maximum that can be runned at the same time); however, we have forwarded your log files and the screen capture to our technical team to make sure the games are running properly.

They will get back to you shortly.

In the meantime, we appreciate your patience.

Okay, they are still not understanding
Quote:
Well, I wonder why sometimes it appears at two tables, sometimes three, sometimes all four and sometimes none? Also, it did not appear at the 1st, 3rd and 4th tables I sat down at today. What would precipitate those specific patterns? I assumed the way it's intended to work is that it appears available at all qualified tables at a level until one table is completed.

Thank you for your follow-up regarding this matter.

After reviewing your account we can confirm that you managed to complete the Cardmatch today with the Table "Klotho" while playing at NL $0.15/$0.30 stakes.

According to your screen capture, the two tables that show as active, they didn't count towards the completion because you already won.

We can also confirm that it should only show your Cardmatch game available until you complete a certain stake level, as previously explained.

We apologize for the inconvenience caused about this matter, since you might have affected by a glitch that allow the screen to display as still available.

We appreciate your understanding and if you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to write back.

Good luck at our tables!

What the...???

Am I not clearly explaining that Card Match buttons are never showing up. I completed the CM promo today on one of the two tables it actually showed on.

How can I make them understand that the buttons are not showing up at the start of the session?

Why are they not understanding that it should be available on every table until it is completed on one? If I had completed it, it wouldn't still be showing active in two of the tables from my screenshot, now would it?

Every time I e-mail them with an issue, the fault is always at my end. There are never any glitches on Pokerstars. Even when you point out obvious glitches, they refuse to acknowledge them, so I end up giving up most of the time.

If you change something about your layout (felt/background colour) it resets the CardMatch thing. It resets it at all tables though so sometimes another table will bug out.

CardMatch has always been buggy, they have no interest in fixing it so support have to pretend nothing's wrong.
02-17-2018 , 10:52 PM
I've changed nothing. Just got an additional response that now they understand the problem, but this too must be on my end. They sent me long, laborious uninstall/reinstall instructions...as they have every time there's something wrong with their software. Never seems to correct the problem, but ends up causing additional headaches when the software doesn't reinstall properly.

I'm giving up on this one too. Yup, my fault. Nothing wrong with the software.

That's how to fix it, change the felt colour and the CardMatch element will reload.
