good USA site to deposit

I just got a check from some winnings online and i started an account just for on line poker and wanted some input on what peaple think these days are my best options for making a deposit? I cant play on carbon so thats out. ive herd alot of bad about most like lock dont pay was wondering if juicy was the same. and i herd bovada takes like 10 percent when you deposit.S o ide like some fresh feedback on what peaple thoughts are these days .Thanks all

Bovada, ACR and BCP. ACR and BCP are on the same network. I like those sites because I hear payouts are good, you can deposit with CC, one that can be used internationally, and they have great customer service.

I really like Lock's traffic for cash games and tournaments.. and the software is great. But I dont know if I would risk some of my money on that site, because everyone says that there payouts are slow, if you even get the payout. Now if you have enough money that you can deposit their and risk never seeing it again, I would say go for it!

EDIT: This topic has been covered so much... Im sure you already know.. Do a little bit of research in the "Poker Rooms" section and you can find out everything you want to know.

ya lock doesnt sound all that tempting.the onlything i dont like about acr and bcp is the 2 hour late reg in tournys and no real small buy ins for tournys. its mostly satelites there but i might put some in there havent herd abything bad about them

I have the misfortune of playing on Lock and I would advise not to deposit on that site if you're considering withdrawing. I requested Western Union withdrawal on 1/12/2013 and still haven't been paid, yes it's been nearly 3 months.

One other thing about Lock... The tournaments are decent, but they also introduced this garbage "Fair Play Technology" to the ring games, dividing up the player pool into tiers. One tier is the Fish, then the decent players tier , and Sharks in the final tier. Strong players can't sit at same table as fish. However the middle/intermediate tier can apparently play with all players.

For me the only 2 worth playing on are Bovada and Carbon. This is for the selection of games (mtt's with good structures/SnG's/Ring), cashouts, software/absence of bugs, and size of player pools. Hate ACR/BCP because the software is terrible and every single tourney they run has rebuy/re-enter it seems. Which makes them drag on forever and it feels like bingo to me. And tons of bugs. Anything on revolution I don't like due to scary stories of loooong cashouts and also due to new "Fair Play" technology which is crap and goes against what poker has always been (If the fish feel threatened, no one is forcing them to play!). So yeah its Bovada and Carbon all the way!

Carbon Poker & Bodava would be my first choice. Easy deposits and also easy withdrawals! Good luck man!

C'mon folks, we all know the ONLY place for US residents to play at is Carbon. You know it , I know it. Easy deposit, easy withdrawal, no tier play, wide asst of games, very large player base, more forum play than anywhere else I know of!
It's a no brainer. :hmmmm:

BOVADA is the best going site for USA players.

Thyanks for all the input guys seeing how carbons out looks like bovada is the place,i just read about the fair play at revolution and i dont like the horror storys about payouts there.acr too probably thats what i hate about them too the long rebuy and add on makes it a donkey shove fest but if thats the worst part about them thats not too bad. What about depositing on bovada do they take like 10 percent when you deposit there i think i read that somewhere here.is it true

Bovada has been very good with their payouts.I would make them my 1st choice.

BOVADA!!! I love it so far easy games all over the place.

Bovada is by far best. ACR is good i have heard. Poker host is not bad either. Best Wishes!

This is correct for CC deposits. I recommend using WU/MG instead

This is correct, PH = Merge skin

thompson,ct is your listed location. Not a banned state. Why can't you play at Merge?

I would avoid Lock because cashouts are taking 3 months. I have been waiting for 9 weeks on a cashout. Also there are a lot of articles about them owing other skins money.

It's just a mess right now.

+1, Bovada is best option for American players hands down.

intertops. bovada i dont think has enough traffic, no hud, anon people, plus you can only play at 4 tables. i was just 12 tabling at intertops.

Stay away from depositing on Lock! Awful support team and withdrawals are near impossible. If you want a good site Bovada, BCP, ACR are all good with withdrawals. But if you want good money and what not i would say Lock but than you have to try and sell it to players on that site. And wont get a 1:1 value for it.
