My most recent payout took 4 days from the time I requested it until I got paid. Someone previously mentioned that it looks like they are mostly paying out mwf but I also saw someone mention a payout on Sunday.

Guys with experience on this network, perhaps MCA - has botting been an issue @ 25NL? I have a couple accounts that play 5, 6, even 7 tables at once and when combined with their stats, just seem fishy. No big deal, it is what it is, but I'm curious now.

I really think with what has happened the past weeks, they are actually reviewing all withdrawals to try and catch some bots cashing out their rolls. This is what I think, BOL has normally been good these last few years with their payout and cs.

I believe that's why you have been seeing people complain about getting picked up for chip dumping.

Yes. The same bot profiles that can be found at the WPN sites can be found here as well. I haven't played 25NL in over a year, but I have played a little 50NL and I still see some of the bots when looking at the tables from the lobby. I believe some of the 50NL bots also play 25NL too. If you would like my bot list then send me a private message.


I'm not sure what the cause is. This is the most complaints about delayed payouts I've seen in the last few years here. I'm not too worried about it yet. It was not many years ago that we had to wait weeks to get paid from any site as players in the USA. I think if they just adjusted their stated time frames to realistic time frames it wouldn't be that big of a big deal.

Is a radically high 4bet sometimes indicative of a bot?

It could be, but an individual stat is not always a definitive indicator. I usually prefer not to talk about their tendencies and statistics publicly. If you look at what is posted about them in the WPN threads you will see similar bots to what you will encounter here.

requested tonight about an hour ago
BTC of course

I'll let you guys know what happens, I don't think they are exit scamming us though. I think the payments are just going to be even slower than they already are. 4 days minimum.

Cool. As I play more hands and notice more, I'll pm you. One of the accounts I thought might be a bot isn't but there are a few more that are a little suspect.

They are a sportsbook first and foremost. The poker side of their operation is small potatos. People who exclusively bet sports are having the same slowpay problems. I also haven't seen anyone have their payout stalled over accusations of chip dumping but maybe I missed that.

they just want you to feed it back to them that's their plan go straight degen mode, i have

Mine actually went through just a couple of hours ago, which probably took no longer then 12 after they told me they escalated it. Did you use Bitcoin?

I personally never had any issues like this before. So, if you're new to Chico, really don't worry. I've been more satisfied on here, then anywhere else.

We have full blown collusion occurring at 25nl here and they're just open about it b/c they know nobody will do anything about it. They're sitting on discord and discussing hands as they play out. Is there any way to control that?

I think the only way is to build a hand scanner to detect collusion through hand history.

No, there's no way to control or stop it. I'm glad to see sites doing something about bots this past week, but the games are still filthy as fk.

Hello guys!

So what about prohibited software? Any official statement?
What software is prohibited? Any HUDs? Or just only auto-seat scripts?

How do you know this is happening?

I received a payout yesterday evening. Requested tuesday morning. Good news.

They're openly doing it at times on every network. Only on WPN are they not dumb enough to have the conversation in the chat box for everyone to see lol.

No, I mean as blatant as during a big pot, telling each other in the chat box what they folded out, offering advice, sharing hud info, etc. Is it all the time? No. Is it uncommon? No. So, who knows what's really going on behind the scenes. There have been times where I did see 2 guys sitting next to each other on 4+ tables and although nothing was said, it did feel like they were working together.

Requested cashout again, will see how long it takes this time ; hopefully less than a week, looks like they still process them just take a bit longer

If its in the chat box take a screen shot of it and send it in or share it here. I've never seen it yet but I won't dismiss your claim yet either.

Refugee from bad software at Ignition.

Thinking about trying BetOnLine. However, on all of the 2 dozen or so sites I have played on since 2001 you could view the lobby or even play a bit on a play money table if you liked to get a feel for the traffic and software. Not so BetOnline. A couple of questions since they require a deposit to even sign it to view their software.

Is the current poker software decent/playable?

Is there generally any Omaha traffic (any type of Omaha game) or any other non-holdem games going?

Thanks for any help.

Just give it a try with a few bucks. For USA, I think their software is on the upper side. Their selection of format & structures is pretty nice also, mostly rebuy + addon, some re-entry, and bounty tournaments.

Has anyone noticed that the rake race page won't update? I saw the results for the first day I checked (last week), and it's been stuck on that day's results ever since.

If you look in the client, it isn't even going on. It stopped at 7PM on 4/18, the same day the Easter promos started. So they didn't even really give out extra money, they just stopped the usual rake race and did the one associated with the Easter promo. Now I'm worried they won't actually restart their daily rake races b/c the Easter stuff is over, but the usual ones didn't restart and there's no indication in the client that they will resume.

Isn’t the same bots everyday that win the rake races?
