set up a bitcoin wallet, like coinbase, copy the wallet address and they send the bits

not sure if you have to do a bitcoin deposit first or not

I got the same kind of disclaimer, but the check deposited fine. Every single check has come within 8 days of me requesting payout.

Did you get tracking for them? My payout was approved Sunday and I wasn't expecting it this early but still haven't received tracking in my account or email

I used circle.com for my bitcoin. Actually ACR recommended it & it seemed quite easy.

I thought there was another thread stating to use another wallet first then transfer to circle because circle doesn't want to be assosciated with online gambling

At what point does the Bitcoin withdrawal change from Bitcoin to USD?

So Bitcoin goes into whichever wallet you choose. But when does the Bitcoin turn into United States dollars?

You can convert them into dollars immediately in your wallet I believe. Never fooled around with them but considering doing so for my next withdrawal

I haven't either. Checks from them have been timely, and minus a small period after black friday, it's been smooth getting payouts via check. But I have several poker friends that play mid/high stakes on Bovada that use bitcoin and like it. So I'm considering it as well. If I do I'll post how my experience is.

Quick update fo everyone. Recieved my tracking info for my check today. Supposed to be delivered from DHL on Monday so so far so good. Like a good little gambler I deposited another $150 into the site and ran it up to $2k. Going to try doing bitcoin this time. I'll report back how it works

Yes, please do. And let us know about the check time too. I've never had any check problems on there really, and most personal friends I know have all had timely payouts, so just curious why some people are having issues.

But I'd like to know about the bitcoin option more. I'm highly considering doing this.

Update for everyone. Bitcoin withdrawal went through without a hitch. Withdrew from Bovada into Mycelium then into circle and onto my debit card. Pretty painless.

The check on the other hands been a disaster. Came to me no problem but when I went to my bank to deposit it it wasn't fun. Was told it could take 6-8 weeks to go through with an $85 fee and was also questioned in depth where it came from and why I had it. I bank at us bank which isn't huge by any means but didn't expect to have to go through all this

Thanks for the bitcoin update. I think I'm going to give it a try here soon.

I've never had an issue with checks though. No holds, questioning or problems.

Have yours been from canada or Singapore? I think it has to do with using a smaller bank at a slower branch. There's no record of it even pending in my account. They filled out a form and had to send it off to the deparment that deals with that stuff

I've never had an issue. Even when they had a major delay in March I eventually received my funds a little over 2 months later and also along the way some comped funds for my delay (after calling them weekly to follow up).

Maybe give them a call and ask for the info and I you feel the delay is too long ask what they'll do to make it right.

Sounds like a tracking issue and they should be able to cancel the check and put the money back into you account so you can request a new withdraw.

You need to actually pick up the phone and call them.

Also turn off CAPS. Whenever I see a post in all CAPS I generally take whatever they say with a grain of salt.

I received a check from them today from DHL. The last check was returned to my bank as refer to maker. This one is much more official looking. You need to contact customer service.

You guys should really use Bitcoin to withdraw.

You'll need a Circle or Coinbase account (exchange where you can buy and sell bitcoins)

A blockchain account (this is where you store your bitcoins securely)

When you withdraw you'll copy your address from your blockchain account and paste into bovadas withdrawal request.

Once processed and funds sent to your blockchain. You'll send the money to your circle or Coinbase account.

Sell the Bitcoin and it will deposit the cash into your account.

Note that you'll need to create a new Bitcoin address on blockchain every time you withdraw.

Both... but lately Singapore.

I'd request a manager, have them call the bank and verify funds, and get your deposit done. You're a customer of theirs.
