I do not recommend playing there.
A while ago I received an offer for a no-deposit bonus on Pitbull. All I had to do was sign up for a real money account and I would have the money deposited by a 3rd party.
After registering, I was prompted to deposit money on the site (normal), however the ONLY payment option they had available to me was Western Union. I didnt deposit any money obviously.
I then go to my poker specific email (which I used to register) and I have a message waiting for me from what looks to be Western Union. The email was telling me that I need to re-set my password for my account, and provided me a link to do so. I obviously do not click, and become super-suspicious because I never signed up for Western Union to begin with.
This has nothing really to do with your story, other than I believed they were running phishing scams as well, as I have no idea how else the Western Union connection could have been made through that particular email address, not to mention literally minutes after I had set up a real money account through them.
Dont mean to start any other rumors or such, but I have always wondered about that and when I attempted to speak to a poker rep that frequented another forum (pokerjunkie), I was ignored.
