Cashing Out of Pokersites Through Checks

[montechristo]

i recently tried to cash a check from a lesser known poker site, the funds came from a bank in the cayman islands. the amount is 15k and I have been put on an "indefinite hold" for security purposes by the bank and by the department of homeland security. it could be months before my funds are released. i gotta pay rent. whats a guy to do?
