This is my first time posting and I just have a few questions that hopefully someone can help me with.

If I were to do a withdraw, the pokersite sends me a check. I live in the United States. Now here's the question, does anyone know where the best place to cash them is? The reason I'm asking is because alot of people are getting grief at their banks over them.(since they're from gambling sites, they won't cash them). Is there another way to get around this and get your money? Would a check cashing place that charges a fee cash them?(like Money Box).

set up an account with epassporte or mywebatm. Get the atm card and then you can withdraw money from your account at any cash machine. You can also load your account with prepaid visa card although I did mine with a bank account load.

I actually just got a check from poker.com in the mail and im going to cash it soon. It doesnt say anything on it that would hint that its from a gambling site so Im not sure how the bank would know. I will let you know when i get back from trying to cash it.

I asked at a local check cashing place (where I get my prepaid visa all access gift cards) and she sain she didn't think there would be a problem. I haven't tried it as of yet.

Check from poker.com cleared at the bank, deposited it into my checking account earlier today with no problems at all. Like I said there was absolutely nothing on the check that says it comes from a gambling association, so I didnt think thered be a problem and there wasn't. Might request a check from bodog soon, I will report on that if it happens.
