We all know any site offering to give you a double up on your deposit is gonna have some hook to keep you there....
After reading through all the terms at CDPoker , I found that you can't take out ANY of your winnings until you've accumulated at least 500! Cd points. Honestly don't know what the hell that is , besides guessing it's like pokerstars FPP's.
Now it says you can take out your initial deposit at any time , so at least that way you can get your original money back. But some how I get the feeling it'll take months to accumulate 500 Cd Points. (after receiving intial bonus , it says) I'm glad I looked , I'll probably still deposit for the freeroll coming up here in the next few days , but man that blows. If I win that 1000 (most likely will be 600 by the time it rolls around) first place prize I can't touch it until I've got that many points. And then I tried to look up how fast they are accumulated , and I saw the person on the top of the list has 100 points only!?!?! Maybe it's just for this month , but something don't feel right about that.
So if any of you are experienced there , let me know before I get caught in a web of deceit!
Oh and I forgot I'm KjSexton0327 there , b/c I've signed up with Titan as KjSexton I can't have the same name due to them both using IPoker.
A reply here , or a Private Message will do.
Thanks Guys ;-)

The winnings of the $2000 tournament are tied to NO conditions, you are free to withdraw your winnings whenever you like, I just confirmed this with my rep at CDpoker.

Well the prize money is intended for the players - it'd be a bit silly if I won my own prize money :)

Haha , I suppose it would be! If the roles were reversed and I put up the prize money you bet your arse I'd be there tryin to get my money back. I'd probably put a bounty on myself too ;-) Would be fun to have a "kill the admins" game.

The points you saw are the points for the CD Poker tour. You get the CD points by playing the ring games. At the $1/$2 tables you get 4 points for each raked hand that you have money in the pot. You can get points at lower tables but I don't how many points at what limits.

* Sounds to Dennis like every one is calling Nick out.
* Sounds like Nick may be afraid of the poker challenge.:)

How long has it been since you played in one of our events?

But i will say that i hope they both get in so i can bust them,LOL>LOL;) ;) gl all>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>buck:hello: :hello:
