Max check req 6/27 pending still, it certainly isn't looking like things are getting back to normal kahntrutahn...and he hasn't came back to defend the now-apparent BS he was giving us many months ago. I seriously doubt that I could ever again have a positive image of affiliates after all the lies and crap from him.

Anybody else get any email offering to send funds via a peer to peer cash transfer? My brother has been waiting on a cashout since May 18, and Carbon just sent him an email offering him this method instead. The email says the offer is available until August 28. Any info on this?

Why doesn't Merge offer any 2/4 NL Full ring tables to start?

FR is only offered up to $1/$2 > $2/$5 and $5/$10 are 6max exclusively. I would guess they don't offer FR at the highest stakes due to lack of interest.

Yeah, I actually had this problem. After trying to pick it up a few times, I emailed support. It turned out that they'd sent it to the wrong state. They corrected it and I got my cash w/o much trouble, compared to the initial wait.

Maybe because Bovada has the most traffic for US players. haha

They barely have the player pool for 200 NL Full ring.

I'm done degening up the 200 full ring tables. I want to preserve my "monopoly" money.

I had cashed out on 4/30 and got processed on 7/2. Pretty funny that kahn **** trahn always promised **** getting better but now the cashouts seem to be a stready stream of 3-3.5 months. Anxious to get the last of my money in a couple of months to rid my hands of this garbage site.

You got a 50% chance of getting your money by Christmas.

As for the chase thing, I know guys have deposited through the ATM with them with no problems. I've been told the money is available in a couple days in most cases. If you get a a teller that is not informed or there is something else within your branch that causes it to get sent to collections you have another 2-4week wait.

Good luck

that's bull****, and when the guy is asking a sincere ? about when he can expect to see his money it's pretty low to tell him he might get his check in 4 months.

unless you have inside information that cashout times will significantly deteriorate you either don't know what you're talking about (and shouldnt have responded) or you do know what you're talking about and chose to lie.

I'm not that familiar with tournaments so I can't really comment on them.

Gotcha. I can confirm the same trend in tourneys. Guarantees down across the board by substantial amounts. Nightly $11/2 used to be $12k/1.5k gtd, now at $7.5k/1k. Kahn says it's seasonal and I'm sure there's truth to that but I don't think it explains >30% drops in guarantees.

What months does the cash game traffic "seasonally" pick up? I would think traffic will pick up as soon as NFL regular season starts, 1) more sports betters wandering into poker tables, and 2) It gets colder and people do more recreational activities indoors. 3) People have more money to spend after the holidays 4) People have more time on holiday vacation to play

the excuse that i always see them use is NFL season was over and that cashouts are slow because people were cashing out. Guess what NFL season is starting backup does that mean cashouts will get slower than before. lol

As for the banking question ive always dealt with chase and have had no problems for cashing the checks. Ive always went inside and used a teller never had any of them sent to collections etc.

4 months seems to be a slight exaggeration. Seems like from the data on here, that about 90 days is the norm for a check to the U.S.

Again, it's not ideal and it sucks and is stressful, but it seems like Merge has in fact been paying players out and has not stiffed players thus far. Haven't they had similar cash out problems in the past (like 2012ish) and made it through?
