Hell, i can't even play the freeroll money i've won there on Intertops. They require you to deposit just to play that money. The money i've won there sits in a "Intertops Wallet" and my "Poker Wallet" shows zero. Emailed support and as i'll bet the rest of you already knew, they say that
I get it from their standpoint as a business, they want to encourage more money flowing in than out. If it was just their freerolls they restricted that way i'd have no issue with it as it was their money to start with. However, with me, that's not the case on Intertops. I've won (yes, still freerolls) money there in private tournaments, with cash put in from depositors. Even cashed in one from here by CardsChat! That they restrict playing with those cashes shows a style of greed that, while i do understand their point of view, really does stick in my craw the wrong way. I feel like saying i'll be damned if i'm depositing a damn dime to you greedy bastards, but once i build it up to playable levels, i'll likely stoop low to their level and do what they demand. I guess overall it's an excellent bankroll management tool for me as i can't play it until then. So i've just set a goal and there's not a damn thing i can do about it until i get there.

You have to see the regulations. On some sites, you can't cash out your freeroll winnings without first making a deposit and you have to bet at least the full amount of that deposit, of course that doesn't mean all at once, no, but the full amount.
Also pay attention to the minimum deposits as they can also change according to the rules, so it's important to read everything to plan right and on time. I believe that cardschat, in addition to offering the best freeroll tournaments, also values having honest partners and that they have ways to work in common, if that doesn't happen, I don't think they will do business.

Then make a min deposit, iirc it's only $10.00, most if not all sites will get you to deposit and upload ID documents before you can withdraw, it's standard practice.
If you don't want to do that, then you can play in their casino, you can blow it all or build it up, and then have to deposit and upload documents before you can withdraw.

no promises but I have heard that debi might be able to get them to allow you to play
with the money. I have told many people this but never heard back if she agreed to try.
worth a try to PM her and ask
of course you still won't be able to withdraw it until you have earned 50% rake on the amount won.see above ^^^^^^^^Interesting, I just found out that what I win in the freeroll I can't even play
you may have been very close
I go to live chat in the cashier and ask the exact amount of rake needed to withdraw. I do it many times while working the balance down.

Yeah, not interested in withdrawal, just want to actually play with it. If I start getting more freerolls (and cashes of course!) on intertops, it may be worth giving Debi a try. ACR and Betonline where i'm building up at the moment, so kinda letting Intertops just sit there because of their policy. Appreciate the heads up tho! (Hope Debi also is ok with it if i do eventually pm her! lol)

it's up to you but the sooner you can play the cash games with it the more rake you will be earning. I waited till I had about $600 and tried but it took me a year to earn the rake and was down to $400 by then. best of luck whatever you do

This is correct.

Thanks for this, the only way I knew how to find out how much rake was needed to be generated before I can withdraw was to put in a withdrawal request, and when they deny that request, they then tell you how much more rake is needed to be able to withdraw.you may have been very close

My issue is the lack of traffic at the times that I'm able to play at.

:rofl::rofl: I did it that way for I don't know how long
and if you don't take it all, then all new rake has to be cleared before another withdrawal
can be processed
their lack of traffic is terrible but they laughed at me when I told them that.
I try to play H/L if you can find a game, gets bigger pots. I also try to remember that I am just collecting rake and don't need to get involved without a decent hand but the road to the poorhouse is paved with good intentions

Their live betting has finally come back, I had a great run in 2017 backing my AFL team and on some cricket games, used my whole roll on the first night on my first bet, the odds were too good and my team were way above the class of other teams that year, and over that year 14x my roll, lost very little the following year after their live betting part went under maintenance early in the year.
My approach to poker at Itops is to prematurely inflate most pots in the 02/04 cash games for about 30 mins to an hour, depending on how things go, the slow play is annoying.
Losing a buy in doesn't bother me, as long as I'm generating rake, the suckouts come for me often also, and most times I leave up a buy in sometimes 2, some get pissed at my play and go hard at me, sometimes they go real hard not knowing that I have the nuts.
leaving up 3-4 buyins has been known to occur. I'm deliberately bad, but many are far worse. :rofl:When you say H/L do you mean PLO8, I highly doubt there would be any traffic for me on PLO8 tables. I'm really liking PLO8, still not real good at it, I find I get lucky a lot with the hole cards I'm playing, it also helps that most of the time you can limp in pre

all these years of you teaching me and I finally tell you something you didn't know twice :smile:lol with live betting back you may not have a cent to leave
but easy come easy go, I have a feeling you'll do quite well in the long run at whatever you play.
yes, I was talking about PLO8, very hard to find a game but crazy folk make big pots.

never does but they are always right in their mind
you see from my post above I have $146 and they said I owe 13 something,
they want 50% so that would be $73 and I have played very little so I know they are wrong and I had them double-check it but if I try to cash out they will come up with a different number

I'm very curious how many players, at least members of our community, have been able to withdraw money from Intertops at least once.
Personally, I unfortunately did not succeed.
Have made 2 successful BTC withdrawls in the last month. Each arrived in less than 72 hours. Put in my third request on Friday night. Will report back when it arrives( likely Wednesday)

I would say the site is still around because they take excellent care of their depositing player pool.
