I deposited 100$ at lockpoker yesterday and was eager to play ,so i wait and wait and still no money in my account i contact support and they dont answer me so i wait till this morning still no account balance so i contacted my creditcard company and they say they have a 115$ charge to my account from wallmart at the exact same time i made a deposit at lock WTF is lock disguising themselves as wallmart this is a very fishy poker room i would stay away from lock and revolution network as something very strange is going on still no money in my account i will keep everyone updated

Give it a day or so.

I just opened the New Lock, with my old Lock icon. Almost like a fresh install except my personal info did come along with Lock.

I read the EULA, and found this part peculiar;

Settlement of Disputes.
You fully accept and agree that the Company's random number generator ("RNG") software will determine the outcome of the Games. Further, in the event of a discrepancy between the result showing on the Software and the Company's gaming server, the result showing on the Company's gaming server shall be the official and governing result of the Game. Moreover, you understand and agree that the Company records shall be the final authority in determining the terms of your participation in the Games, the activity resulting therefrom and the circumstances in which they occurred.


As I read it, I couldn't help but wonder what or who the RNG is. What is his name? .... :confused::confused::confused:

I didn't have much in my account but I did the switch yesterday. I don't really like how the table is set up or the games available compared the merge games so I'll probably download another merge. I also noticed that I used to get rakeback on merge but today I didn't get it. Maybe they don't pay daily? I'm thinking I'll make the move to blackchip or carbon.

I don't understand what you're asking. RNG is just an abbreviation for "random number generator", although I highly doubt that's what you're asking.

What went thru my mind when reading that was a guy sitting in pajamas deciding things while smoking and texting ....and eating oatmeal with his feet on a table and Captain Kangaroo on the tube......

First name that came to mind was Bob......

I was wondering about that myself. I've used HEM with Cake but the hud is basically useless while at the tables. There's going to be a ton of players choosing to leave if they can't fix that. One of my initial thoughts when Lock announced the move was how great it was going to be to have access to HUDs on the overall network.

Meh.. I guess with everything else stated about the new Revolution Gaming Network, we'll just have to give it time to see how it pans out.

I'm not thrilled with the switch. Moving to inferior software and a much smaller player base doesn't seem like a good deal for the players.

i'll say. i hate it to. i can think of several things that I hate about this new change......

1. as someone said, you have to change your nickname.

2. the tournaments are all different now, what pisses me off the most is that I usually play the heads up games with 4 players. I loved it when it was a winner take all, now there giving a 2nd place which stinks in my opinion because you get less money for 1st and it makes you play more heads up to make up for your loss.

3. They just got the new hyper turbo tournaments on lock last week which I loved. You start out with a 1500 if your playing the penny games and 1000 if your playing the high stakes games which is dumb in my opinion, it should be the opposite. Now to top it off since they've got there new system up, you only 300 chips now start off, what are they smoking? lol

4. This is by the far worst......

They've changed the complete look of Lock Poker. You have animation players which are fine, but they don't give you an option to go back to the way it was. You can select "simple or classic" in your options but that still not how it use to be.

5. It seems to me that when I was playing on there old system, it was much faster play, there was no slowness whatsoever, now I'm seeing it pause for a split second whenever they deal the cards or they shove a pot to you.

6. When you see the cards whether if it's in your hand or if it's on the board, there real blurry which I can't stand.

I hope Rizen is reading this because I just don't know if I can go on playing like this.....

Am I the only one excited about this?

-I love cake software(probably because I wasn't spoiled by ft and stars)
-Rev Network traffic is about same as merge now so US players have two decent places to play instead of one.
-Dealt rakeback makes everyone play like super-nits(no rake without a flop) so steal those blinds all day!
-Ability to change your name weekly(why would this be a negative?)

*And you can totally use HEM-HUD on cake, it just takes a little finaglin'.

I'm not excited, but I'm ok with this.

I'm willing to give them some time to sort stuff out ... didn't expect it to run flawlessly over night ... evidently some people in this thread did.

You only have to change your nick if its the same as one you used on the cake network already or someone else on cake has it. I typed in the same nick I had at lock when it asked and it took.

i say you get your shit together before you start a new network not start a network then mess up hundreds of times then fix it with bug problems and log in issues and money being deducted and not put into accounts come on get your shit straight before you start a poker room not after you start it it was suppose to be a smooth tansition and its turning out to be rough and it just simply unacceptable to me for them to do this heck i played on a poker room on merge and had no problems at all now you think i should put up with this shit

Keep on this matter, particularly the depositing problems. It is important that US players be kept alert due to the dwindling resources available online. I don't want to see the "available" sites become difficult to play or to financially negotiate. Thanks for letting us know.
