3. is Bodog ok or do you fear them going down soon?
i'm thinking of jumping back in and any help anybody can give I'd appreciate thx

Dont play at Cake.

If your American and want the best game selection you should choose Merge. The payouts are slow and it's practically $2500 at the most you can get off the site per month since that is the max check payout and you can only request one until your previous one gets processed. Their are other ways to get the money off such as player to player transfers if you have a Euro friend you trust to pay you or you might be able to sell some of it in the 2+2 market.

Don't play on Cake it's shady as fuck and slow to payout.

Bodog was solid for a while because they paid out quickly and depending what you played they had some game selection but now with the player names anonymous it is a joke.

America's Card Room is another option. Their traffic is growing and they have some of the better deposit and payout options available for any room out there. This site announced the other day you can deposit as low as $100 by moneygram and they will cover the fee which for those low limit people is a good option but they have various games at low to higher stakes.

+1 to Americas Cardroom, still waiting on my first cashout since I started playing--but the cash games at 50NL and 100NL are good. The tournaments and SnG selection sucks though. Will post again if you want to get a rough estimate on how long it takes for a check (only been 3 days so far so I am not sweating it).

ACR checks usually arrive in less than 2 weeks. They have a debit card you can buy for $25 and after you get the card you can cashout to the card which ive heard takes 2-3 days, im not sure about the fees. ACR is on the Yatahay network along with Bookmaker and True Poker. Traffic is picking up fairly quick.

DO NOT PLAY ON CAKE..... brother had to sell his cake $$$ at 45 cents on the dollar, he was getting a 2500 dollar check every 4 months and support would not help him at all cash out faster, whats the point of running it up if they are going to pay you and wont respond to your email...FUCK CAKE

I play on merge, sports book, got a wire xfer a few days ago within 5days of requesting i like the merge network,

+1 Cake is horrible

If you like the Cake software try Intertops poker which is on the Cake network. I havent played there but i have heard they have fast payouts.

merge are good, I dont play the others

This is true, intertops and playedaces prob have fastest cashouts on the net right now.

These cocksuckers hammer my inbox and I'd never even really heard of them before until that started.

I guess I could always unsubscribe, but I'd rather do nothing and just complain.
