Online Poker? Need help....

CWaters425 · #1 (**permalink**) 05-14-2007, 08:12 AM

I haven't played online poker for sometime now, but I kinda want to start playing again. I want to deposit like $25 and see how far I can take it. I am a U.S. player......I will most likely get a funds transfer for my deposit money....but if I can build my bankroll how can I cash it out? Also, I will be playing at FTP.

Does it have to be FTP? I mean if you want to deposit $25 then you could instead use one of those instant bankroll promotions and get $50 free. I just took one for Party where I got $75 for free (they don't take US citizens though)

You can cash out by check.

IF you're cashing out $150 or more at FTP.

If you fall under that amount and want to cash out, you could always make a post here. A lot of people are looking for ways to get money into their accounts as well. In fact, some M2M sales even accept online poker site transfers, which would just cut out the middle man for spending that money on chips

I usually just play tourny's, but I'm going to vegas in 3 months and i'm going to try cash ganes. So I ant to deposit a little amount of money online and test the cash game waters. My only problem now is finiding someone wanting to give me FTP money and me in return giving them paypal money.

If you're really anxious to play and want to play on PokerStars I can help you out, but I have nothing in FTP right now. I just got my account back there.

only problem with poker* is cashing out......right?

P* can also cash out by check, the difference being that the minimum for a check is $50. I've personally never done it, but I'd imagine it works the same way as FTP does.

Here's their screen when you request a cash out by check.
