It's either photo ID or proof of residence like a bill or a bank statement with your name and address on it. Who uses a credit card to play online poker in 2021 though? Figure out bitcoin.

Havent had to deposit in a while. Usually do p2p, but want to add using crypto. Ethereum or Bitcoin. Not sure it matters. I do remember reading somewhat recently that sending from Coinbase is a big red flag and no no. Could i send from Coinbase to something like Blockchain Wallet and from there to ACR? I know I eat a bit in fees but dont want to be flagged. Any help would be appreciated.

Any site that accepts bank transfer in the US is subject to the UIGEA. Coinbase definitely. Blockchain, to date, has not been an issue but it certainly will. Your best option, for safety sake and I am super cautious having learned a lesson the hard way, is exchange > wallet like exodus or trust > poker site. Repeat on way out.

Exodus is a no doc wallet and I highly recommend them. Full disclosure, I'm an investor in the company, too. Fees can be as cheap as you like or full boat. Legacy and segwit addresses with the option to always use a new address.

Use exodus also haven't had any problems with it.

Thanks to both of you for the suggestions. Will give Exodus a try.

So I tried the hard line connection and it still lags and I get DC'd after about 1k hands so I don't know if there is a solution. Before when I disconnected, at least it would let me act after a reconnect. Seems after the latest update, if you DC, you're basically screwed.

This hand just happened. I may not have the best hand OTR here, but when I can't even bet, or xc, it gets frustrating. Especially when you're on a regrind from a downswing.

Yatahay Network - $0.10 NL FAST (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

BTN: 115 BB
SB: 239.4 BB
Hero (BB): 315.4 BB
UTG: 145.6 BB
MP: 226.1 BB
CO: 126.4 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has 2 2

fold, fold, CO raises to 2.5 BB, fold, fold, Hero calls 1.5 BB

Flop: (5.5 BB, 2 players) 9 8 2
Hero checks, CO bets 3 BB, Hero raises to 14.5 BB, CO calls 11.5 BB

Turn: (34.5 BB, 2 players) 4
Hero bets 21 BB, CO calls 21 BB

River: (76.5 BB, 2 players) 5
Hero checks, CO bets 40 BB, fold

CO wins 72.7 BB

I use Amex to buy in, Bitcoin to withdraw.

If the only reason you did not call or raise the river there is because you got disconnected, try emailing them the HH and they might refund what you put into the pot up until the point you were disconnected. (37BB)

Sometimes uninstall/installing the client can help for a period of time. Ending sessions a little earlier and restarting your computer before every session might also help.

I just saw the staking function. Can you offer stakes to randoms to apply for, or do you need to have the stake all set up off-site before putting it on there? Its a little bit bare with regards to instructions.

Looks like the milly could have a fat overlay this week. No idea why they started this during the WSOP. Their team pros probably aren't even playing. Hope they keep running it and don't cut it off.

Thanks, taking a break every 1k hands to restart seems prudent. Considering I may not even have had the best hand, I'll just take the L on this one.

This definitely occurred to me.

On another note, 25NL blitz had 5 players waiting about 30 minutes ago. Anyone up for getting it running on Friday or Saturday?

Honestly, I’d still email them for a refund tbh. There’s no way to know if you would have won or not and imo the fact that there are even issues with this when real money is on the table is unacceptable. The worst they can say is no.

Restarting the computer and client every 1k hands or so is obviously not ideal but I have a feeling it will work. I had the same problem and I think its because I was playing on 4gb RAM laptop. Grinding multiple tables while using PT4 requires more than 4gb RAM to run smoothly.

Is there any tracking software out there currently tracking SNG/MTT buyins correctly?

It's not for me. I use Sharkscope to take notes on the field size etc. to set up the rest in my DB. Still haven't figured out how to name the tournaments with HM3. Edit: and by the way... It will edit over your stuff at a few different points so best to wait till the tournaments are finished... I had a few buy-ins shift in price for some reason and the amounts were weird.

Also looking at my balance I'm not sure it's right. Looking at how they list your money in/ money out, is a nightmare.

Was anyone playing while ACR went down around 5-6 hours ago? My balance seems low. I dont think the money I had on the tables during the disconnect was put back into my account.

Also, has anyone else had discrepancies when it comes to rake back? My tracker says I should have significantly more RB than what I have been receiving this week. I've never really paid attention because I assumed it would always be correct.

Go to financial history page. Historically, when money is stuck you will see the date out showing year 0000. Screenshot those and email them to support, pray you get someone with a pulse.

Same question. I went to the website and their description is worded like anyone can jump in, offer stakes or stake other players, and so far I've seen exactly one $11 tournament that had stakes, which I couldn't get to work, and since then I haven't seen any tournaments listed in the stakes section.

The tab says 'beta', so maybe only certain invited players are playtesting it?

Exodus is well-made and easy to use; but it has the ginormous disadvantage of permitting only one wallet address per currency per user. If you want to use a new wallet address for each transaction (Ignition/Bovada/Bodog requires this for withdrawals) you need to create a new user at the level of your computer's OS. This can be a PITA.

A better wallet app is Electrum, which lets you create wallet addresses to your heart's content, but it is single-currency. Electrum is Bitcoin-only, but when BTC hits all-time-highs, transaction fees go through the roof, and you are better off using a cheaper coin. I use Litecoin and Electrum-LTC, the port of Electrum for Litecoin.

No. Just turn on portfolios in settings. Then create bovada2 name ad an example and then when you go to that tab new addresses
