See, in my world - the world of high-stakes gin and poker - we play for cold, hard cash. It's all business, pure and simple. Anyone who thinks cardplaying is a 'game' - I'll show you a loser. Money... M-O-N-E-Y. That's how you measure success. One dollar at a time. One chip at a time. That's how you keep score.-Stuey Unger
Where is my money held? All money is managed by the poker room.
How do I get paid? They can send checks or transfer the money directly into your bank account.
Which currencies can I play in? They accept deposits in all major currencies. The poker room currency is US Dollars, and other currencies will be transferred to the poker room using a fair exchange rate (the exchange rate used can be seen in the Cashier section of the poker client); no profits will be made on currency exchanges, and the same rate is applied to both withdrawals and deposits.
Is my transaction secure? Yes it is. Online poker rooms use secure server technology and industry standard encryption to ensure that their financial transactions are as secure as possible.
What is the minimum deposit? Minimum deposits range from $20.00 up to $50.00 depending on the poker room.
Are the online poker rooms secure and honest? Yes! They have made certain that neither your money nor the integrity of the games is compromised. From sophisticated random number generation, to 128-bit encryption, to a range of other measures they have implemented the poker rooms with security as a number one priority.
Do they have promotions, and how do I find out about them? They frequently hold promotions. You will be informed of them by email, the Welcome window when you enter the game, and their Home Page.
Is there a credit card processing fee? No, not at the rooms on this page.
How do I get money onto the site? You must first set up a real money account and then make a deposit using one of the various supported payment mechanisms. When you register with the poker room, your screen name becomes tied to your money account and whenever you take a seat at a real money table you request chips from your money account.
How do I get money out of the poker room? You cash out. Money in the actual poker table is automatically returned to your money account whenever you leave a table. You can make withdrawls from your money account at any time.
Can I transfer money to another player? Yes at most online poker rooms.
