i totally agree, it should have been faster, especially to e-wallets, all they need is an email to process withdrawals, which is always registered with them if you made a deposit at least once...So actually they are just a few clicks away from completing but yet they delay...Mby its sort of period of "latency" for us to mby change our decisions regarding withdrawals...

I agree with you, how longer the withdraw takes, how more time the player has to decide to play further with the money.

It’s like every other business in the world. If you owe them money or buying something from them, the world is your oyster with everything setup in a way to make that transaction as smooth and convenient as possible.

Now if you are asking for a refund or a withdrawal in this case, you have to jump through many hoops and go through hell to get your money back.

In the case of gambling sites, they are also banking on the psychology of the average gambler meaning that with the passage of time, the temptation of going to gamble more either to win more or to make back previous losses, increases by many folds.

As someone above already said: the casino *always* wins because the system is just setup that way.

I withdrew $$ from PS for the first time this week. I won a tournament at the weekend.. Saturday night/ Sunday morning and by Wednesday morning £255 was in my bank.
I know what your saying because I've felt like that before but at the end of the day it's security. And I'm happy with that because if some 1 was going to steal from your account you wouldn't have a chance if it only took seconds.

I play Poker at pokerstars and I honestly do not think it's waiting for money for so long ... I've been playing for years in that room and so far I've never had any problems ...
