Info on Cake
 

Im interested in getting an account here. How is the play there? And the traffic? What kind of deposit and withdrawl method are working for Americans? And mainly is it worth it?

Re: Info on Cake
 

currently no deposit option for americans.

I've observed much less fish as their money has run out and they can't reload.

Me too but this is the same everywhere. The have told me they are working on hard alternatives to Neteller.

Re: Info on Cake
 

I joined Cake about 3 weeks ago, and had trouble with depositing options. So, I went and bought a All Access Prepaid Visa, after hearing it worked on other sites. I worked perfect, and I had used the Giftcards.com first but was declined. All Access prepaid Visa can be found at NetSpend.com. And check but most local Check Cashing places carry them free to load and a $2500 a day limit which is highest I've seen. Hope this helps. The bonus is cleared very easy compare to F Tilt.

actually, sportsbook.com's poker room is a cake skin, and sportsbook has some ridiculous CC processor, so cards usually don't get declined if you do it that way.

Re: Cake Poker needs Epassporte
 

when my money finally came in at Epassporte I started loading my accounts AP; FTP; PS and UB. Was going to put some in Cake Poker but no options to get in. Sorry Cake. Instead I loaded up more money on UB...you had 70 bucks that I was going to deposit, but no way to get it there. So I guess this is officially a "do something Cake" or lose out on more money thread.

Re: Cake Poker needs Epassporte
 

There are still a lot more games and bigger tourny's since they added the sportsbook skin. But yeah, I don't see any way for US players to deposit atm.

I did score 3nd in one of the nightly gauranteed tournys, and requested a check cashout. About a week for it to go to processed (it states that on the cashout page that they batch weekly check cashouts). Got e-mail saying its in the mail.

I think Epassporte would be a good one to add if your reading this Grummin. Its seems to work with UB Stars and FTP so thats what a lot of Neteller refugees are going to.

thank you for the info.

Called a place that carries these near me. They said there are 2 kinds: reloadable that has your name on it ($9.95), and non-reloadable ($5.95 up to $250max). If I go to cake I will want max bonus which is $500 I believe, and more importantly I will want rb.

Do you know if both kinds - reloadable and non-reloadable giftcards work at Cake?

Re: Info on Cake
 

I was able to use a checking debit card to deposit at Cake. My bank is a popular regional bank, but it still worked.

Re: Info on Cake
 

Tangled, its very important to get reloadable card. I at first bought the Giftcards.com virtual Visa and was declined by fraud department. I believe it was due to not being imprinted name and basically name less. I recommend everyone at everysite use this as EPassPorte yanked me around.

Re: Cake Poker needs Epassporte
 

That's the guy's name. I couldn't remember his name on here. Yea dude, I like Cake Poker and your quick replies to problems on this board. I WANT to deposit and can't.

Re: Cake Poker needs Epassporte
 

I would also like to make a deposit on Cake Poker but cant!?! Where is the Cake Poker guy? They really need to correct this issue?

Re: Cake Poker needs Epassporte
 

Guys call your closest Check cashing place and ask for All Access Prepaid Visa. You have to get reloadable one and it works perfect.

Re: Cake Poker needs Epassporte
 

Hey folks,

We've implemented ePassporte for deposits only at this point and are waiting for the withdraw feature to be completed and tested before putting it up.

Bottom line: late next week is our target for ePassporte, unless of course you want us to put the Deposit side first and don't mind waiting a week or so for the Withdraw feature to be ready.

Thanks for the info. Now I know.

Don't know for sure if I am going there yet. Been watching there tables at sportsbook and they seem beatable (SH limit). I see a lot of open limping and a lot of people calling 2 bets cold. Will keep watching though as the influx of 2+2ers might change that. LOL

Re: Cake Poker needs Epassporte
 

grummin

still not showing on the software as even a deposit option.

and yea, no problem putting the deposit side first and waiting for the withdraw feature.

Re: Info on Cake
 

I'm bumping this thread to note the news reported on gambling911's site that former Tribeca skins StraighFlushPoker and BetUS Poker are moving to Cake Poker as skins of that network.

Re: Info on Cake
 

****BUMP***

Any updates as to whether epassporte is a go for deposits and withdrawals yet?

I'd like to deposit but right now I'm only depositing on sites that use epassporte for deposits and withdrawals.

Re: Info on Cake
 

Hello everyone, We have been diligently working to get a reputable payment processor up & running for our US players since the sudden exit of NETeller. This process has taken longer than we had expected and hoped for. However, it looks like the last few details have been worked out & I'm pleased to announce that we should have ePassporte ready on Monday or Tuesday.

On another note, I am also very pleased to announce the addition of BetUS to our poker network (CKPN). With the addition of one of the most reputable and widely recognized online sportsbooks, this partnership positions BetUS and CKPN to become the solution of choice for poker players in the U.S. and abroad.

The only thing wrong with Cake I can find is the lack of a Mute button inside the program. Does it exist and if not can it be added?

Re: Info on Cake
 

I can't read the print in the cashier page and other pages with letters and numbers involved. Everything is fine at the tables, just can't read anything elsewhere. It's like real small and fuzzy.

Just me?

Re: Info on Cake
 

hard to find the mute button, but its in the options through the chat area.

Can We Get An Update Cake?
 

Every time I talk with support I get a different answer about epassporte. You said Monday or Tuesday, so I was really hoping that was the case. Now I'm hearing hopefully sometime before the week ends.

So how about an update from someone in the loop on here?

Re: Can We Get An Update Cake?
 

Im not seeing epassporte as a deposit option.

Re: Can We Get An Update Cake?
 

OT:

Why on Gods green earth would you name a poker site "Cake Poker"? Why not "Tennis shoe poker" or "Pizza Poker" or "Random stupid name poker"?

Does Cake have resizeable tables? Do they set a ceiling on the number of tables that one person can play?

no and no, but after i emailed support the other day about getting pretty consistant crashes when playing more than 4 tables their answer was, essentially, "our software is resource inntensive so you might not want to play more than 4 tables b/c doing so may cause performance problems."

lol

Re: Can We Get An Update Cake?
 

cake is experiencing "technical difficulties" getting epass set up, but they thanked me for my continuing patience ^_^
