Default Re: Pokerloco stole 1100 from me

CallMeIshmael, I waited almost three weeks for a cheque from these guys. Then they asked me for ID and kepted on dragging ass. Almost three months later i still havent received my money. Pokerroom.com/hollywoodpoker are very good sites and people should continue to play there. But from my personal experience pokerloco they didnt pay out.

OK, but I think you missed my point. If you ask around, people dont report a problem with pokerloco. I played there recently, and had no problem cashing out. My point is: why did they pick you to hassle?


I dont want to make accusations, but 2p2 has a history of people making outrageous claims with new accounts, and often we arent getting the full story.

Also, out of curiosity, where are you from?

Im from bc Canada and people dont report problems about pokerloco because the dam site only been around for a few months. Can i asked you how much you cashed out for??? Pokerloco been around for less than a year that's all i know and of course there arent that many people who'd report problems.

I wished someone told me this earlier LOL. 1100.00 is lots of $$ for a blue collar worker like me

Stick to the bigger sites.

There are now 200+ sites, and i'd say at least 25% of these will dry up within a year. And when they do, they'll steal money. You have no recourse either. They are all based in foreign countries with seedy governments.

CallMeIshmael, wow that's some huge withdrawl u made. I play for entertainment once in a blue moon. That's why 1k seems like such a huge amount of money. I couldnt imagine having a 5k withdrawl online
