Stay away from Card Player!!

I checked these jokers out a few months ago, seemed like they had some good MTTs. With a free account, I entered in a $10 tournament with points. Only 1st place paid. Won it my third attempt. No notice. I emailed support, they tell me they tally up everything at the end of month. I wait 3 weeks and still no notice of prize/winnings, so I email support again, stating that I won $10 and that I would never pay for premium account if they didn't pay me for my win as a free member. No response. So I'm done - poor software too. anyone else play/have problems there?

I started off there after my big 2 year poker break. This was before I found PO. And did the free trial and software does suck. I won first once and finished 2nd twice all for about 100. So after support said wait till end of month, and that came. And I was expecting to get a check when they switched it to pay pal cash out. I didn't know this at the time and when I wrote them they told me about the pay pal and without giving them my pay pal info, the next thing I know I got the 100 in my pay pal. I didn't play there after my trial. THey still send u weekly rewards which is cool I guess

Thanks for the warning, it's always better to just stick to the good sites like BCP, Bovada and Stars, Tilt if you are not from the US.

I don't know about subscription poker, you're better off at main sites in my opinion.

The way I read your post was = BCP, Bovada and Stars and Tilt = non-US. I thought pokerstars banned all US player?

yeah, it was before i discovered PO - I didn't know what options were available for US players. Thought they would be reputable with their magazine company and all.

Its always good to know when a site doesnt hold up there end of the bargain, guess i wont be checking them out

thats why i stay away from those kinda sites...even wpt site....all a scamm

Similar to my experience with NLOP. The software is so slow and there are so many ad interruptions that it takes 3 hours to play a 6 person sit and go. I still don't know how to get the money I won.

It never ceases to amaze me the fake sites yall mofos go to

Thanks for the warning! I dont want that to happen to me

i do like the cardplayer magazine, some good helpful hints and stories

Yeah I almost feel like I shoulda known better. SpadeClub was no better and they did almost the same thing. Good thing I never upgraded
