Hello! I come to bring a doubt! I hope someone who has already gone through this takes my doubts and certainly others in this topic!
We know that many or all poker rooms do not allow you to withdraw the profit from the freeroll after "meeting requirements" .. and it seems to me a very difficult mission to withdraw $ 50 in freeroll earnings for a microstake player..! am I right?

Example:
If i made today a $ 30 deposit and tomorrow won $50 profit in a freerolls, after that i enter a $ 10 buy in tournament..

1)" what money" am I using for this tournament, my deposit money or the money earned on free?
2) Could still redeem my $30 and get the remaining $40? or only could withdraw $20 and the $50 freeroll would be blocked for withdrawal yet?

Help me understand this! Thank you very much for your attention! [emoji120][emoji106]

Yes what site are you chatting about?
Most have reasonable rules play deposit or freeroll winnings once as a requirement and a few have much more strict impossible nearly to withdraw requirements especially if you select play through requirement bonuses when depositing.

I only play sites where there are no requirements. Having play through requirements is nonsense. You will lose before you clear the balance. I've taken winnings from pokerstars, party poker, Coral, Ladbrokes. You have to deposit first so winnings are paid back to whatever method you used to deposit. I read the T&C's on sites before I play, I was stung before on Cake Poker where they wanted me to play through and then when I didn't play for a while they took my balance for "inactivity"

You need to read your poker site term of conditions to know how much exactly you need to play out, but I recommend to play only on pokerrooms without such restrictions.

To begin with, I would like to understand what kind of poker room we are talking about. Well, as it were, not one poker room will not allow you to withdraw bonus money without a certain wagering.

Poker rooms ask for that, also to make a first deposit, the deposit is to verify the user before making a withdrawal.

Deposit to withdraw is fine. Play through requirements are not. Always check before you play at a site. Like I said, the bigger sites don't do this. Imagine wasting days and months playing freerolls then discovering what you won isn't yours. I've been there and it sucks.

The vast majority of bonuses and play through winnings will never clear without a large investment a lot more than the amount of the bonus. Most people will lose while trying to clear. There is a psychological thing going on. Gamblers will not want to quit while on the mission and will just keep pumping more in.

It reminds me of the slot machine in the bar I used to work. The max payout was £4 jackpot. There was a nudge bank that would gradually fill up to maximum 10 nudges. I've seen people spend their entire wages on the machine only to get to 9 nudges in the bank and come to the bar to borrow money from their next wage. Then go broke and walk away. All for £4

The better sites have no play-through requirements, it is all your money. If you're not sure, you need to read the fine print or ask support.
Thanks! can you list some rooms of your knowledge that do not have these requirements?

i'm having trouble withdrawing money at intertops (THE WORST ROOM TO ME AT NOW!!) i made my first deposit in january (25€), i won more than 50 frequent points in cash games on 2-3 months, i had a profit (60 $)only on cash tables this saturday, and only because i won some little prizes on freerolls, (CC & jackpot) they blocked all my founds to withdrawal.. Ridiculous this on this room !! i have 150€ in my account now and cant cashout NOTHING before requirements .. i cant cashout my deposit value too!! OMG! I have every time check the requeriments status with support.. So ridiculous this room!!!! They want my little money..[emoji852][emoji2959]

Thanks to this comment! " having play trough requeriments is nonsense. You will lose before you clear the balance." Thats it!

I even understand some basic requirements for withdrawals, but forcing the player to be stuck in the room in order to withdraw a simple prize is so ridiculous!! better not give any prize in this way! I prefer 1 dollar that I can withdraw than 100 dollars flying! [emoji852][emoji41]

Perfect!!! You're so right!!

I didn’t believe this would be possible ... if we win 20 dollars on freerolls (playing dificult hours), we have to spend 500 dollars to see our 20 dollar prize! or almost that.. So Far from reality!!! For me it is not a requirement, its a madness!! The room besides being small is stupid because instead of treating your players well, it creates rules to keep them away!

Yes there are poker rooms that do that. But the good and popular ones all give you what you have earned. For example, like poker stars. If you won $ 50 on freerolls, you only need to make a $ 5 deposit.And then you can deduce all the money:)

These are bad poker rooms, they just deceive people by filling their pockets, I think that any winnings should be paid instantly and without restrictions

On larger sites, freeroll win rules are different from bonus deposits. I have already redeemed money won in freerolls at Pokerstars without need of any "Bonus Clearing" activity and this was even simpler than the deposit process.

Interesting, most rooms dont have limits like that, you can do whatever you want with money on your account, except you cant deposit and instantly withdraw. PokerStars even allow withdraw without deposit I think, but I may be wrong
