I been meaning to ask this question here because with so many members here I thought I might at least get 2 or 3 replies from some players that can answer it. And I understand that some things players keep to themselves and won't say, and that's cool by me.

What I would like to know if there are any players here that play at 64Spades? If so, what's your opinion of the site? Have you been able to request a cashout, and if so, did you have any unwanted problems with that?


I did play there myself until 2 days ago, because I come to realize the site is like so many others I played on and wished like hell I never heard the name. Yeah, I'm a poker site hunter. Like in the past 16 years of playing, I can say without a doubt that I have played on every site that US players were allowed to play on, and in 2000/2001 that was about all of them. So I just keep doing it. Anyway, again I got my money on 64Spades and I'm having no luck even begging it from them. So, like others, I finally gave up and sent my last email a page long, and nasty as I could put the words together, even threw a weak threat or two in there for good measure.


So even though I don't need to after that, but there is no doubt that the site will not pay their players, even if they make a point to plaster a high level player on FB saying he/she just cashed out $1000. Looks like I would just learn my lesson and stick to the big and trusted sites.


Any reply, positive or negative would help. All the players I know that have played there can't answer me, because those have all went broke after one deposit, and never made the mistake again, instead they all done like me, just moved on to the next one that popped up LOL


You know I will say that I do play on one of those that I really like, and I can trust them to pay me, because the owner is a close friend and he has no place to run and hide.

Never heard of this one. I, too, was playing on all of them back then. Back then, you could bonus whore your way to a profit regardless of how you did at the tables. The good ole days.

I was thinking of trying out 64Spades but after reading this post I think I will stay away from this site.

ive played there seems customer support responds very quickly, the tourney fields are very small so I like that at least for right now, I have yet to deposit there. But I am going to make a deposit soon then ill let you know if I do a cashout, My withdraw is ready to go as ive always verified my docs before I deposit so I have no hang ups. I would recommend that to all on any site.
With them having very low traffic and being new I would think your going to have some bumps. anyways ill post back here after I do a withdrw attempt. although on 1 of my other forums someone said they cashed out 700 and had it next day. so we will see to be continued

Hay you all. I'll start by saying that sometimes I'm bad about saying things quick without making sure I have the facts, and this maybe one of those times. When I posted this, I was really pissed at 64Spades because I couldn't seem to get the answers from them I wanted concerning my withdrawal, and I still haven't gotten those answers, but I have found out that I was wrong to say they were not paying their players, and I may have even said that in my opinion, they are like many others I've played on, and have intent of closing the doors as soon as they have their pockets full, and the heat is bad. What I found is that many players are getting paid, but from my years of trying and promoting these small, pop up in the middle of the night sites, I have learned my lesson, and will never give a good opinion here or any other place, that a site is safe on the long run.

I signed up just to check it out. There is ZERO traffic. I mean zilch. Hold'em wise, anyway. There's a few PLO going. They have the ability to play chinese poker (OFC) which I like but no one plays there. Stud is available too. All the freeroll tournaments are full of sit outs but easy to make some pennies. I think I'm up to 2 bux and a tournament ticket already. Very fishy players there - at least the few that are there. I can't speak to deposits/cash outs as I have not done so. But, it appears paypal is available along with Bitcoin. No SNG action yet. No cash table action yet. Lots of cool features though like ability to make your own table. Good not takeing and tagging features. Synched breaks. Overall I like it and can see it gaining steam over the long haul and over places like Global Poker (also Paypal available here) but Global lacks a bunch of the customizable features 64Spades has. I see Global - in the long haul - heading the way of WPT. Don't get me wrong, I really like Global but...if I can get my $ on and off easy at a site with the options 64 has....I'll be there. Just needs some traffic. I'll wait and dink around on the free stuff and see what happens.

I did not have any trust left for the site and as quick as they made pay pal an cashout option, I made a request for them to make good on my 5 week old cashout request by check that I never received, by sending it to my pay pal and yesterday 10 minutes after I asked them on FB, it was there, and I have no intent to even play one freeroll there again, which are getting hard to find, and if you do, they have no value a real player would waste play time on. Got lost nothing and that's great.



I just made a post with JAO as the subject, which happens to be a site that used the same software as 64Spades here. So take a look at the post and it may make my concerns here understandable.

Ya, I had heard about JAO. I have zero intention of puttin my own money on 64 until proven otherwise. I do really like their software though. I hope it pans out.

I too wanted to know more about 64Spades. What I see so far does not instill much confidence in them.

Their main website is located in Honduras and they are hiding their domain lookup behind a Private Proxy -- you can't get real administrative information about them. The site has not been updated since early 2017, even the Facebook page they created has not had any info posted since March of 2017.

The software client they provide is written in Html5 (javascript, css, etc.) and bundled into desktop executable package. There is nothing wrong with that, it makes it cross-platform and should even be able to run on Mac and linux OS's. But if done incorrectly (or insecurely) it is prone to exploit. Given the shoddy nature of their website, I can't see these people doing anything but the bare minimum with their client App.

OnTilt Radio (OTR) uses 64Spades to host their freerolls, thus my interest in knowing more. OTR is a mom and pop run poker community who know nothing about how websites or software are developed. I had a hell of a time trying to figure out what their central website was. They have three of them, and I am still not sure.

My recommendation is NOT to make any deposits with 64Spades or offer any personal information beyond the required info they need to open your account. Go ahead and play in the OTR freerolls. And if by happen-chance you build up to $500 or more, then try to cash out using Bitcoin or PayPal.
