Discuss payout options here

[ARSENALRULES]

I have played the moneyside quite a bit but have never deposited money. I have had winnings from freerolls and even got up to $180 before tilting this all a way.

I would like to play moneyside a bit more but I can't see why anyone would deposit money on this site.....play money is good on this site but what do we know about this site.....

Who owns this site....is it a registered comapany if so were are there offices based.......you can desposit money straight away through but you cannot get your money back so quick. The only post I seen before about withdrawing money the guy had to pay $50 for every $200 withdrawn..........whats that all about.

I would like to hear from players who have had good or bad experinces from the moneyside. Or is the moneyside just a rip off. If you had a lot of money in your account how safe do you feel it is. Perhaps wake up one day and the site is gone all together how would you get you money back.

Would like some feedback from players on moneyside on there experinces.

Very good points you make Arsenal...While the chances of this site folding,gone or whatever you want too call it are slim,if it does happen,you dont have any hope of getting your money back..I would think a site like this would have a better chance of being sold to a bigger gaming organisation.I dont play for money here so cant offer you any experiences I would have,but it will be interesting to see replies from anyone that may have....Good thread m8....

[stevo_58]

Good points AR. Like you I've only played on the RM side with freeroll money kicking it off. I hope you get some replies because they might be quite interesting.

Jimmy, I don't really understand why you think the chances of this site folding are slim?

[telboy]

i have deposited money on this site not a big amount but enough to let me play the moneyside at my pace that was 3 months ago still not had to put any more money in ,can understand your point tho players without bankroll management or those out to make quick money would not put money into this site, so i think my small investment as been worthwhile

[slowman]

Hey Aresenal rules (even though they dont really do they)

I signed on for a money account through Netteler and it was simple, this was after playing free etc fr about a year and I have not had a problem with it to date

Only put £30 in and everything seems fine, over $110 now

If (and we all know it does) the site goes down while your in a real money tourney or if it throws you out, freezes etc, you can just contact 24/7 help and they refund your entrance fee etc. Ive never had a problem getting refunds or advice regarding the real money side.

personally I find it more exciting playing for money, but regarding companies etc I don't know and I also have never tried cashing in/out so can't help with that either.

Hope some of this helps, think you should be more concerned about ya football team then a money account...LOL only joking, good side.

I dont know how much of an investment you would need to get a site like this up and running Steve,but even though its very small compared to the bigger Gambling organisations,it would still be an attractive package for them to buy out and take over...Sites such as this have been sold for huge profits to the people who set them up....The owners of this site will be aware of any potential buyers out there and that is why I dont see it folding.Why would anyone throw away something they could sell....Iam not saying it is going to happen,just that it could.........

Thanks for your reply jimmy, I see you point now, thanks mate

[user9]

I too have some real money from the freerolls but there would be no chance at all right now for me to deposit any money on this site.
There are so many technical problems and it seems that this site experience one major issue every few weeks.

I still remember the big speech about converting to the new system because its more scalable and you can just add servers to overcome the lag. Yeah right, the lag is still there and got so bad that they had to cancel most of there hourly freerolls at one point.

Then you had the first Denial of Service attack after which it was proclaimed this would never happen again. Well if you know even a little bit a bout hackers and ppl like this comments like this are just a big challenge for them and believe me in 100% of the cases challenge them and you will lose. They can crack Blue-ray disks, Game Consoles any kind of 'uncrackable' software and recently they hacked into the Power grid of the U.S. They only real thing you can do is slow them down and maybe not challenge them by saying DoS attacks wont happen again and the like.

So I would be willing to deposit money if this site would run without any major problems for lets say 6months straight but so far there always seems to be something going wrong. I also see the problem that some money players here may say one day I had enough of all these problems and just take their money out. I really hope Onlinepoker gets these issues finally resolved.

That said I do love this site although bc of the frequent problems here I do now go to other sites which I visit less often but they don't have lags or these frequent outages so I know its possible to fix it. I am mostly playing the free tables and enjoy the great community of the tournaments etc.

If OP66 could finally get rid of the frequent technical problems this site could go from a good site to a great site. I for one wish them best of luck.

I hold the same opinion. I have made a couple deposits, no more than I would have spent going to the pubs. It keeps me at home and out of trouble, and the money side gets a more balanced game vs. free side where players have nothing vested other than free chips which, if lost, mean nothing. I do not mind at all putting down less than $5 for a full evening of poker. Although it is great fun winning OP Gold, I must admit that it is more fun winning OP cash.

[TheTexan]

If I can input, without getting stomped for it....

If I am reading the above messages correctly I think you are looking at the wrong stuff. The forum runs on bulletin. This is a forum and community software package that is commercially available and has NOTHING to do with the poker side of the site.

Pitbullpoker.com, like us is part of a poker consortium that is running under a poker network. We are part of a bigger network of sites that feed the poker rooms.

Or am I way off topic here?

[vinyardx]

I've read a few of the comments trying to find out what happened the the site and am glad that I'm not the only one who's alittle confused. If I'd actually made a deposit to play on the real money side I'd be well... good luck to everyone.

not a witch hunt.........just wondering what would happen if you invested money in the site and actually won.......say you had a few hundred $ would you have confidence in actually having that........i wanted to know who has taken money out.......and with the site down who can you contact.....seems that these questions would be important to a lot of player. I appreciate the best person to answer these question is blava who is probably tied up sorting out the site..........was very interested in replies as no one was able to answer questions raised.
