So I have started to play poker again about 2 weeks ago. freerolls at ACR and Betonline. I am unhappy with ACR only because there On Demand freerolls are only 10 bucks, first is 2.50, thats 1 buy in 2nl. ugh. so i won 75c two times and sat with it now im at 3 bucks. a 10 dollar freeroll with 800 people is just garbage so i said F ACR im going to BetOnline.

BetOnline has bigger freerolls, more money, from the $300 dollar nooner to $50 and $100 dollar tourneys. I placed a couple times got it up to 2 bucks then sat with it got it up to 7 and then i cashed 1st in a 50 dollar freeroll for 8 bucks. roll went to 15, one time i sat with 2 bucks and was up to 23 bucks at a 2nl table max buy in 2 bucks. so long story short im at 55 bucks now. I recommend BetOnline, the players are terrible there.

The point of this thread isnt to brag or boast or put down ACR. Im actually trying to share my success with betonline to help you get money.

Does anyone know of any underground usa sites that pay? im trying to get money and i dont want to only play at betonline, but it looks like i might have to. cheers people

Remember withdraw limits and fees. ACR will send a free check for a minimum limit of $100.

Betonline has (I think) a higher minimum and fees to get a check.

Bovada or Carbon will send a $50 check no fees but no freerolls anymore.

Read the withdraw page before investing too much time.

Get in the CC club...better than 2 buck top prize.

Good luck!

I wont be cashing out for awhile, its a 500min with a 25 processing fee. I dont mind paying a check fee as long as i get my money. I think i may have to put 50 on carbon poker, they have been around for a longtime. do you play there and how is the competition?

I think from my research and talking to players, Bovada and Betonline are the two best USA facing sites in terms of bad players and fast cashouts.

I have an App that will catch the real time hands on both of those sites so you can run a HUD on either of them in real time. Very handy.

Your take on ACR is correct, and yes BOL is way better, 200 and 300 nooners have mad payouts, then they have multiple 100 dollar freerolls starting at the same time.

Carbon has an interesting freeroll that starts at 6pm daily pst. its $100 and you can play for the whole month as long as you have one player point earned in that month through cash rake or tournament rake.

And if you havent heard, ACR has a weekly freeroll leader board where they give out satalite tickets to the top 10 and the first place finisher gets a $220 buy in ticket to a big cash MTT.

And like someone mentioned Cardschat has freerolls on ACR and BOL weekly.

I would definitely try Bovada. It even has a rabbit card option if you choose. With Bovada you are just a number & the number changes every time you move to a new table. Some people like it to remain anonymous. I have cashed out at least 4x on Bovada & each time took no longer than 8 regular days to receive my check.

I would be vary wary of Bet Online. About 3-4 yrs ago I started playing freerolls there & I got it up to around $20. I then started playing cash & got that up to $600. I went to cash out & they REFUSED to cash me out. Their excuse was how do U expect to get something for nothing. I informed them that was the literal definition of a freeroll something for nothing. I fought with them every single day for 30 days & it is my complete belief that their customer service is the worst around in any business. Needless to say I NEVER got my money from them.

There are other things wrong with BOL like freezes & allowing illegal bets. For example, in a PLO game Player A bets 2.00 Player B calls 2.00 Player C goes all-in for 2.01, this inept site allowed player A to raise. Worst site EVER

Betonline is under new ownership and their cashout times are just as fast as Bovada.

I was wary of them too a while back. But they have definitely changed dramatically in the last 1.5 years.

And you can track a player through a whole tournament w/ the bovada card catcher. You just can't track over multiple tournaments:

And Betonline catcher:

These are the 2 best US sites in terms of fishiness and cashouts imho. That's why I put together catchers for them

I am taking a break from Carbon because withdraws take too long.

I recently started playing on ACR and i dont mind the $10 freerolls. Im trying to start a bankroll without depositing on the site. They also have a ton of site sponsored freerolls including cardschat for more money if you sign up with the site to get the password. I havent played on BOL before. I checked out carbon as well but it seems no more freerolls and the game stakes have gone up with no micro's. I also like juicy stakes, they have 3 freerolls daily for tickets to 100, 200, and 300 tournaments and also have quite a few weekly 150 and 250 freerolls. I won 585 in a tournament that cost me a gold chip to enter as well so the promotions are pretty good but the payouts are 595 per week with a fee and ive never cashed out before.

I was under the impression Carbon withdraws have been speeding up. Ive been watching them cover quite a few of the tours other than the 50k this past week where they had over 6k overlay. I know situations such as that they like to avoid.
