Good afternoon everyone,


I have been playing Holdem for about a year now at local casinos in Southern California. I’ve decided to get a little more serious about playing and try my luck playing online. What websites do you guys recommend playing at ?

Yes, very.

They're agent based sites so have to try and join through a reputable agent. Can search Reddit and there's different clubs posting etc. that have a decent history behind them.

Weird part is the casinos don’t really see poker as a money maker .. why they are still blocking online poker is just silly … especially post COVID

Anybody know about the legality of playing online in Alaska? From what I’m reading, it’s a bit vague. Also, if it is legal, what sites that accept Alaska players are the top three?
Thanks much!

If the site will allow you I pretty sure you can do it. Just have to pay taxes. Some states explicitly ban sites from operating in their jurisdiction but check(Mine says it's not illegal but nobody wants to operate here so screw you and having fun for now). Ignition and ACR are the two main sites I've tried. P.S. PRB10FREE is to try the site for free ACR if you want to use it... There are other better offers if you google about.

Perfect, thanks!
Yeah I used to play online but got out ahead of Black Friday. Got back into the game recently but absolutely can’t stomach play money. I’ll check out those two sites. Appreciate it.

Ignition/Bovada, BOL, everygame, and all the apps. Apps have most action and easiest on/off.

Multi table options on the apps?

Yup

I play 4 Tables max on Bovada(now Ignition) max.

DO NOT PLAY ON AMERICAS CARDROOM! ACR is giving me the run around for 4 days now sending me nonsense emails about why they removed my withdraw options without giving me any way to get them back. Think they may be trying an exit scam soon. Who knows.

Well, there you, unlicensed gaming in 2022 in the USA... they did a huge remodel so I would probably put some patience on it. I doubt they will fold though it's such a beautiful site, but you never know. When someone invests too much into their poker skin and advertising(boop)

Almost 0% it's an exit strategy. Shifty CS =/= going out of business in the gambling world

This is literally the exact flow over the span of over a dozen emails and 4 days:

Me: Hi I'd like to request a cashout.

ACR: You need to verify this information.

Me: Sent verification.

ACR: Declined withdrawal because did not receive verification.

Me: Send verification again.

ACR: You need to cashout in cashier first.

Me: Cashout.

ACR: Immediately declined.

Me: Cashout try again.

ACR: Immediately declined.

Me: Cashout try again but now withdraw options all unavailable stating I must speak to Live Chat when there is none. Send another email asking why.

ACR: Tells me I did not verify even though I did and tells me to verify again without answering me how to get cashout options again.

Me: Send verification and cashout request via email.

ACR: Tells me I need to withdraw via cashier first. [This is when I completely lose my ****]

Me: Send email asking why and for help.

ACR: You must send a verification to cashout.

100% accurate emails. Not embellishing even a little bit...

I hope this is under $200! I have not put a lot on ACR and I LOVE their site! They were writing me VERY slowly though when I needed support. Move over to Ignition and don't give up harassing them for your money. I am genuinely sorry to hear this! Unregulated and Unlicensed means they can belly up at any point. Ignition/Bodog has been around longer I think they're more trustworthy. I know people on Twitch that have made big paydays on ACR in the past 3 weeks soooooo.. I mean somebody was likely getting their money recently if that's any 'slight hope'. Good lord... Why do we Americans get treated this way! (The Winning Poker Network) owns them I may try to get into contact with them?

P.S. In the future when you hit $80-100 withdraw to your wallet immediately, you can always put back when you need to... Never leave a massive some on a site! Ignition has been around with Bodog since I think 2013(AFAIK) but they were there before then. I think they're more legit but time in the game but who knows. My buddy played on their in 2002 if I recall correctly. ACR is new I think?

They are not exit scamming. These companies are flush with cash, highly profitable, and they have no need to steal your money. Nor do they have a desire to do so, they have a legal cash cow (and yes, online poker is legal, even if not regulated in the United States).

In point of fact, licensing has very little to do with whether a company comes, goes, pays, folds, etc. Profitability matters, and the offshore sites are quite profitable. They aren't going anywhere, not the main ones anyway.

Ignition, Bovada are licensed by the way, many people don't realize that.


Make sure your verification documents are not truncated in any way. If you clip off a corner of the document in your pictures, the document will be rejected.

If your images are many megabytes in size, they will be rejected (I suggest converting any pictures you take to a slightly compressed jpg file that is 500kb - 1 megabye in size. Anything larger is unnecessary and overly large files are autorejected by the servers (or at least they were in the past, I suspect this is still the case, and there is NO notification if a file is rejected for size).

Verification will likely not take place over the weekend, so try to be patient.

Payouts in crypto, once an account is confirmed, have been taking place in < 30 minutes for quite a while now. They have gotten very efficient.

You will get paid and these issues will likely never occur again once you get your verification documentation sorted out.

Yes, they could do a better job of it, and yes Tier 1 customer support is not the best (but this is true of most businesses), but your money is safe.

The delay on your first withdrawal, because of verification, is very common not just at WPN, but at all offshore sites. The first withdrawal is almost always the slowest because there are security checks for KYC and AML that are done in the most depth upon the first withdrawal. People commonly complain they will take your money without these documents so why can't they send it, and the answer is international banking compliance, aka Know Your Customer and Anti-Money Laundering rules. And yes, ACR and Bovada and every other offshore site uses international banking connected to the SWIFT system and must comply with KYC and AML, even if the customer is using crypto currency.... these businesses, despite common misconceptions, operate within the boundaries and good graces of International Law.

Curious if anyone has experience with Everygame poker? How is cashing out, how is traffic?

Its Intertops rebranded.

Same as always

Wondering the best option for playing online from strictly mobile device (iPhone) appreciate any replies or PM in advance thank you.

Hi,

I live in California.

I have played a bit on Global Poker, over the past 2-3 years - but I'm not sure if there's better poker sites out there?

which site has the most traffic?

I do not have an ignition poker account - thinking of trying that one out. Ignition better than global?

How hard is it to withdraw money?

Is there any rakeback deals with ignition poker?

Thx

There's literally only two sticky threads in the forum...

Global poker. Dunno how many times its been said in here, but uh, yeah. Best site in USA by far.

is there rakeback for Ignition for US players? I'm signing up as a new player soon

hello , I have a question to want to consult because my brother wants to play GGPOKER or ACR.

if someone lives the non-legal of the poker State e.g. NYC, how can they handle the cash-out and tax?
Do they just need to use through the USDT taking money and apply 1040-form?
if yes, do they need to state the USDT come from where?

thank you

(ENG is not my first language. if have any errors above word, I apologize about it.)
