There's likely no correlation between them partnering with intertops to pool players, and their speed of cashouts. Although someone speculated that Intertops must be comfortable with Juicy reconciling with them before they would partner, which may bode well for player cashouts, they're not necessarily related. I could envision there being excuses for giving priority to reconciliation over player cashouts.

If anything, hopefully Juicy's new owners will want to improve cashouts. But now there's a $100 fee for check withdrawals, which is likely intended to limit the casual withdrawals until the new owners can get a handle on cashflow. Only time will tell if they lower that fee at some point.

To be clear, two things actually happened:

1. Juicy was acquired by new ownership.

2. Intertops and Juicy joined up to pool their players and segregate their higher stakes games and many MTTs from the rest of the network. Their lower stakes games still pool with Revolution.

An interesting side note is that Juicy was listed as the operators of Revolution, and presumably the new Juicy ownership will continue that role. Lock doesn't own/operate Revolution despite what most people think. Lock has only a piece of Revolution because (surprise!) they didn't follow through on their end of the deal and so never completed the takeover. Ownership reverted back to Juicy. As to the relationship between Cake (the original network operator) and Juicy and how Juicy came into being operator, from what I'm interpreting, Cake setup Juicy to be the flagship skin and ultimately network operators, and Cake Poker is now WinCake on a different network. I've not tried to rundown the Cake specifics in all this yet.

As is common with online poker operations, it's definitely a twisted web of ownership and control at play.

There has been some reported cash outs already, that being said I wouldn't say they have made themselves a legitimate site again by any means. If you ever decide to deposit again, make an amount that you would not care to lose.

I certainly hope it's true, for those of you who play there (I don't). Just keep in mind that many sites with cashout problems state a standard timeframe they never intended to meet. Lock CS was still telling players who asked that cashouts should happen in 4-6 weeks, months after it was widely known and reported that cashouts were taking several months. By all accounts Juicy used to be about as bad as Lock is now.

Please do and let us know. As you say, US options are limited. Does Juicy still accept US players? Because Intertops has the best cashout times and customer service for US players, but they don't take new US players without a special invitation.

Bovada and Carbon are paying out pretty quick. Good luck with the Juicy venture and let us know on the cashout time frame when you get there.

Has anyone tried starting an account on there recently? I can't do it, the registration always fails...I hope the recent cashouts are for real and the checks don't bounce...$100 fee is not good but for the poor folks who have had thousands pending in cashouts for almost a year, this gives them some hope.
