Things change a lot over time. Once Lock finally left the Revolution Network, the honest members of that network breathed a big sigh of relief and confusion finally started to lift. The number one honest member of that network (in my opinion) seems to be intertops. They have been in business forever and have always had a great reputation for paying out quickly. They probably lost a great deal of money from the dishonest member (or members) of the Revolution Network because monthly reconciliations were not being paid.
When Lock suddenly left the network, Intertops and juicy stakes combined their player pools and shut everyone else out.
It was really looking like Juicy Stakes was another of the dishonest members of that network because the payouts were non-existent or taking forever, just like with Lock, but when Intertops accepted Juicy as a player pool partner while shutting everyone else on the network out, I thought "wow, maybe Juicy was more of a victim than a perpetrator"....and sure enough, I got paid my $473 (net $373 after the $100 fee) via WU within a week of request...it's a shame I had to pay a ridiculous fee but considering I had already written that cash off as lost to another dishonest poker site, I was pleased to get 3/4 of it. Others on other forums also were posting that JS was cashing people out finally. I hope it's still true today one month later, but not sure.
I'm very thankful that I can play on Intertops because today they no longer accept U.S. players without some sort of special invitation, but if you were a member years ago, you're still allowed to play there.
It is very apparent to me that Lock was the ultimate crook here. Dakota shouldn't have to go through what she does to help CC members who are still waiting, she should be winning bracelets and stuff like that. The fact that Lock still advertises fast cashouts and everything while only cashing out those who apply pressure with real clout involved tells me that we as a poker community need to fight this corruption every chance we get but then again we don't have time for that....
Everything I just said was my opinion only...it's based on a lot of research and some of my own experiences.

If you believe it is good to play on Lock then just play.
if you want to play for cash out, better think before play
my suggestion is just play what you could afford, pocket money or whatever.
PS: I think mine cash out is still in process, and would not come b4 X mas , LOL
BTW: the cash out process fee is really high.

They got me for 2k cashout. As of about 4 months wait now. Ponzi yes possible. Will I bad mouth a site trying to recoup themselves in a time where they hold all my cash in my account detiriating new players and traffic to their site so they deff close down and go bankrupt and I lose all my funds for good 100%? I will not.

As you should all know by now... DO NOT PLAY ON LOCK
They are a ponzi scam and can not be trusted.
Once you (and hopefully) get your funds, do not return. They have been the worst paying customers while the CEO goes on business trips with your funds.

I am just surprised that there are still people playing on the site. The most I have seen is around 200 people. If Lock owes millions to the other software company players will never see a dime. I am owed just under 2k. Its enough to annoy me but I have realized that I am probably never going to see it.

I can't even imagine how no one so far didn't try to have their money with the help of the law. I am sure this is possible, and if you really have 15k or even 3k waiting cashouts from 6 and more months you should do something. This site is so sick and i can't understand how much time Lock needs to close his doors for good.

If you fight for your winnings you will take it . But if you let it this way i'm sure you'll never saw that under 2k .
For me 2k is like half year hard working full 8hours job. But you know what is best for yourself!

I understand what you are saying... I send emails weekly and get the same canned response. I have health problems that when I won the money I needed it really bad to pay bills. I still need it but I am not as in bad of shape as I was then. Its a terrible feeling to put time into something and not be able to reap the benefits. I am going to continue sending emails. I just dont know if I am going to see the outcome that I would like.
As far as getting the law involved I dont think that is the best option if I want to see my money. I believe that road would only lead to having Lock being shut down and no one would get paid.

Wait till Pokerstars buys out Lock in their devious plan to be the only poker site in the world.

I still play there only because I don't a lot invested and I seem to do pretty good there.probably cause no good players play there lol.i deposited for the minimum of $30 just so I could jump into the cc freerolls.i hit on a couple tournys as a result of freerolls for a few bucks and put in for a cashout a month ago for under $600 and haven't herd a thing.but I still got some play money to work with and I don't have a lot of bankroll on many sites so I still play. but if I had more on other sites I probably wouldn't play there,i kinda feel like im just waisting time there .THIS IS NOT A RECOMONDATION FOR LOCK! but what have I to lose
