Hate to go back to my kid days to make a point, but back when I played Little League, you would see billboards of different businesses along the fence of our baseball fields. It was nice seeing those, as it showed who supported Little League in our community.
When I hop on the Lock Poker site, I see the private forum freerolls. It shows me who supports the Lock Poker sites. I make it a habit to support the forums who promote my favorite poker sites. Currently the only forums promoting Lock are The Impromptu, PBJ Time and TFIF. I do not see Cardschat out there, although I played in a Cardschat $200 private freeroll this past Sunday. Is Cardschat getting rid of their $200 freeroll on Lock poker?

Yes we are - they will end at the end of March and we will not be having any more there.

Stay Away from Lock

Prolly the biggest bunch of crooks I ever saw. I played, I won, I cashed out over 100 days ago and NO money. They are in trouble and they don't pay. DO NOT DEPOSITING ANY MONEY ON THEIR SITE if you ever want to see it again.

Lock is like Ozzy Ozbourne. He died five years ago, but nobody bothered to tell his corpse. The only thing keeping him upright now are all the drugs he took have not worn off yet.

A guy has a thread in another forum that has documented close to $1 million in payouts Lock owes, including a small payout to me I've been waiting on since July 1. I don't expect I'll ever get it, and it's only a matter of time until I try to sign onto the site and the software no longer works.

Why i Wont Be Playing Lock Poker Anymore

SO ITs been about 4 months now and they still have yet to cash me out. which is ridicouls since bovada has your cash in hand in a week or less!!!
i emailed them numerous times asking them politly about my payout and they always seem to be giving me the run around, "Payouts usually take 8- 10 weeks." i was like wtf but whatever so here comes month four and i give them an email and bam! they tell me there having difficulties paying out so i might take longer than normal?!?!?!? :mad: thats some bs
i really hope there not paying themselves out player funds and just neglecting to play the players.
PLayers be ware of playing on that site/
i still havent been paid out.
and for shits and gigs ill even post the emails if requested.

They are getting even worst...They were processing withdrawals for European players until recently which means that they are totally broke atm. I'm waiting for my cash to be processed 3 months now and i'm quite sure that it's not gonna happen, cause they needed like a month or two before...
Where did you get this info. from? (I don't think it is accurate)

there is something they can do about it. I've been researching "online poker a lot" the dengenerate gamblers do something called a "chargeback" if u deposited on the site do that to them. then there's no hard feelings they take ur winnings and u get ur deposit back. sure u don't get ur 1000$ - 10,000$ that u won but at least u don't have to wah wah to the wambulance. there u go problem solved. im sick of the crying about this.

I have about $25 on Lock from CC freerolls and I think this is what I'll start getting cash game experience with, the problem is that there's hardly anybody online. I played last night and there were only ~90 people total, I can't see how this site is even making enough to cover the costs of running servers and I doubt they're going to be around much longer.

In other Lock news, how many of you got the Superwins email today? LOL. Lock reps claim it's another skin on their platform. All signs point to it being Lock just trying to change their spots to attract more depositors.

I received an email from them yesterday. I asked this question before with no response. Can people still login to Lock? I can't, even if I try to re-download the software.

I waited close to 5 months to get my 500 bucks, min withdrawl amount, via WU. I started getting nice rakeback. But then it went right in the crapper. If you need to take winnings off a site, Lock is NOT the place to play. US players get hamstrung by such sites.

Looking for a new site now.
Good luck to those still waiting!!

The sad thing is, I've been monitoring Lock Payouts on various sites like 2+2 and I haven't heard of a single person getting their money in the last three months.

I think they must be at a point where they jsut don't care how many customers they lose and how many new customers are turned off by them. When a company stops caring about those things, you expect to see the CEO's and other high level executives hitting the EJECT BUTTON and landing safely in their GOLDEN PARACHUTES.

It is sad that we US Players are forced to do business with shady businesses just to play poker. Regulation would mean reputable companies could actually set up shop in the USA and so we would all be protected by the laws governing american corporations (or partnerships).

I honestly think people are tired of the USA being the land of the IMPRISONED and will start putting their votes to work. We can't bear another four years under democratic leadership. And though I honestly can't imagine feeling more imprisoned than I do now, I know that things can and will get a lot worse if we keep electing these worthless politicians into office. Difference between now and the future is we have the opportunity to change things now before they escalate to the establishment of a socialist regime. Once the regime is in place though, it will be very hard to fight it. And we americans are in no shape to fight; we are not the americans of the civil war who had the life experience and wherewithal to put our lives at risk to fight oppression. We are fat, lazy, deadbeats who have become accustomed to government handouts and strictly abiding by the ever increasingly invtrusive laws passed by the most liberal (and socialist) president the US has ever had.

Sorry for the rant, i guess thinking about LOCK had me thinking about how it really is AMERICA'S fault why so many people will be forfeiting their deposits and winnings.

Poker needs to be regulated in this country already. PERIOD
