So far played only few freerolls at GG Poker, but after the last one - $100K Dan Bilzerian's Birthday Freeroll - I faced a problem with the withdrowal.
Finished 6th in that one, and won $2000 :D In cashier I am limited to withdraw max. $500 at once. So did I tried, but it was not approved.
The problem is not known, cause I received a standard e-mail with TC's, where there are stated several reasons why my withdraw may be not approved :(
I will try further to research what else is needed to make the withdrawing possible. But there is something more surprisingly happened inbetween. They credited my account with 11 Spin&Gold tickets in total worthe of $200 :eek:

Now I am scared to play them - looks like some trap :deal:

Anyone having experience with their withdrawing system?

OK, some more info onto my case :)

At least, within the Transaction History - I found the reason of my withdrawal requst not approved: They require to withdraw the same method as your first deposit. I do not have deposited so far at GGPoker, but only in the Poker room they acquired couple of years ago: BreakoutPoker.
So, I made small $25 deposit today, went through all possible authentications they have (the process must be reviewed and confirmed within 24 hours), and if everything goes well - I will make second attempt to withdraw tomorrow or the day after tomorrow ...

In the meantime, I will try my luck with those Spin&Gold tickets awarded :D

6th? That's brilliant - well done. Could not get a ticket myself. Withdrawn twice from GG no probs using BTC.

В частности, GG Poker не лучший сайт для участия в турнирах, если вы хотите получить дешевую практику и / или увеличить банкролл с небольшого депозита. У них нет ОПМ ниже 2,2 $, и лишь некоторые из них работают каждый день. Для обычных турниров без баунти у них нет ничего ниже 5,5 $. Для меня, как для несколько опытного игрока, это было бы хорошо, но если вы новичок в игре, вы можете в конечном итоге потерять немало денег, прежде чем узнаете, выигрываете вы в этих играх или нет. Так что GG Poker определенно не самый дружелюбный для новичков сайт :)
Yes... I'm a beginner and immediately felt that PS is more convenient for me..

Hi:ciao:. Good job:icon_thum. It is a pity that this Freeroll was not available to players from the CIS. And so congratulations. In fact, we have a very fast support service on ggpokerok. The most common reasons for not being allowed to withdraw funds are not a perfect Deposit and not a wagered rake. Although in your case, I don't know why.




Life is a game , play beautiful

What i really like about stars is the fast withdrawls. And thats about it mainly...
Well the traffic is nice. And all tge different games on mostly all buy ins.


The rakeback is a joke though. The design goes worse with every update.


GG, well. I only started and i am confused actually.

Am i missing sth or is there no such thing as Sit n Gos? And no Limit Holdem whatsoever?

There seems to be a lot of promos here which looks nice. The rate of clearing bonuses though is also quite... well not that good.
The client is a little laggy, needs manual refreshs. A lil unhandy.

this ^ is extremely common for many pokersites. For the past ~10yrs. I have ALWAYS deposited on any site I choose to play on prior to playing anything. (I learned from the past... & have played at well over 50 sites)
So, I made small $25 deposit today, went through all possible authentications they have (the process must be reviewed and confirmed within 24 hours), and if everything goes well - I will make second attempt to withdraw tomorrow or the day after tomorrow ...

I'm not sure exactly how it works on GGPoker but I would consider reading over all deposit bonus rules prior to accepting anything. Often when they 'give' you something for nothing there is a catch to it (ie. player must rake 'x' amount of $'s before you can withdraw any $$'s from the site... & quite often that amount is rather LARGE). Some sites even do this on their player-to-player transfers,
As a general rule:
I never accept any 'casino' bonuses
deposit on all sites prior to playing ANY games/tables
thoroughly read over deposit bonus rules
