Poker Time

Hey Cardschat,

I am curious to know if anyone has played on Pokertime and if they where able to successfully cash out.

Thanks,

I play there all the time & I cash out all the time. However, recently I had to give them all kinds of info in order to verify my identity and be able to continue cashing out. I'm not happy about it since they wanted copies of almost everything about me except for my Social Security number. By now, someone there has probably stolen my identity.

Wow, that sucks to have to provide this if you have consistently cashed out in the past. I can understand new players.

As far as do they cash you out...oh yes!!!! Pokertime is run/owned by a group named "Fortune Lounge Group". They also own Poker Rooms royal vegas Poker/7 Sultans as well as numerous Online casinos and a Bingo Room.

I am pretty leary of Microgaming, but Fortune Lounge has been nothing but great to me. Back a few years ago they gave me free $10, I never deposited, and they cashed out well over 6 figures without a problem (since that time they changed the rule and you have to deposit like $20 I guess to withdraw). I have not been actively playing there too much recently, so I am not sure about recent cashouts--but I can tell you they just deposited a free $100 into my account (2nd time they have done that in last two years to entice me to come back and play).

wow 100$ just to entice you to come back..thats cool, never played on pokertime... hm...is this open for european players too?

They gave me a free $5 trying to entice me back. Then sent another email telling me I only have a few days left to use the $5 or will expire.

I let it expire. Had an account on there from the free $10 they gave me years ago. Dropped the $10 in a rebuy tourney IIRC. Didn't really like their software/graphics.

I pretty much stick to the big sites now.

I've played there about one year ago when they had a $200k monthly rake race. Nothing to complain about, customer service was good.

Actually they cater to Europeans--if you are from USA you can only play if you previously had an account with them.

I started playing there around 18mos. ago when they used to run the Super7 ($7K freerolls). Cashed well in a couple of them and built up a roll on there but never took it seriously. Let a friend of mine play on there.... they blew the roll. A year later an email from PokerTime and they deposited some $$'s to my account. Apparently i let it expire past the time when I was supposed to use it, emailed tham back about it, they deposited some more in there for me, lol.
i've never withdrawn any funds off of there so I couldn't tell you how they work it. Personally I like the software (microgaming) and wish Doyles had never changed over.

I used to play there and liked it then they shut me out saying i couldn't play as a US citizen. I will have to check it out again

Never play POKERTIME. They locked my account after 2 days. I made a deposit of 109 Euro, made 125 Euro and then they locked my account. They asked all kind of documents ( I V EVEN SEND IN A DOCUMENT MADE BY THE POLICE CONFIRMING MY ADRES AN DATE OF BIRTH, Id card, driverlicence, documents and bills of all kinds,...). THEY EVEN ASKED FOR A COPY OF THE FRONT AND BACK OF MY visa CARD ( --witch i did not use to make a deposit--). My account is still locked and I believe i will NEVER GET MY MONEY BACK. So if you want to play at POKERTIME and have a good time, do so....
