i was the 2nd place in the third PPA 3K freeroll at pokerstars tonight. 315 dollars and they let me cash out with a check option. I only took 100 and just to see if I could being in New York USA. They said even though Ive never made a deposit that i should allow 15 days for delivery. Thats good news. :):D

recap and update

so the information we ve all been waiting for ... well i was anyway;

recap- a couple weeks ago on PokerStars they had a series of 4 PPA 3K prizepool freerolls. When I realized i could only get in one i went for the third one. I knew a lot of people would blow it in the first couple not realizing they could only get in one, and the people that realized would just reggie the last one. around 1300 joined in the third, I placed 2nd picking up 315 bucks.
I HAVE NEVER MADE A DEPOSIT ON POKERSTARS.
is
as soon as i won i went to cash out. I cashed out 100 of the 315 and waited a few days but then i got interested in finding out whether I could have two checks on the way, so I cashed out another 100.

update- the first check came yesterday. It was drawn from a bank in california. I live in New York state so I went to Price Chopper grocery store where i have a payrole check cashing card. I went in handed the lady the signed check, my id, my card and punched in my ssn and voila! $$ no deposit no hassle no bank issues

the only thing is if you do a cash out before you make a deposit you can never recieve a deposit bonus. I mention this too for one simple reason, this site is so hasslefree that i believe that there is no pending account, a deposit bonus is yours with no raked hand winnings.

i have since blown thru the 115 left over in the account winning seats to bigger payouts (with fruitless efforts on the big tables this time) but keep picking up little bits here and there. i m not looking to bankroll my account, but when i hit a big chunk i m taking part of it and using the rest the same way I did here.

I have deposited on other sites but pokerstars has the best turnover.

they should hire me

gl on the tables

Bo Dog

Congrats on the win. I won 2nd place on Bo Dog freeroll a few weeks back---- payed $75.00 That's the biggest freeroll win I've ever hit. It lasted for about two days. Like I said in another post. When playinf the freerolls at BD the play is easy, once you change over to real money, the dead beats come at a above any average rate.

Thanks for the post! I never knew you could cash out without having to deposit. I had a 250 Bankroll on PS from playing FR's, and SNG's. Cashed out 100 just now, and can't wait till I get my very first "Poker Check"
