I never have played there, are you sure you can deposit there?
Looks like the only option for deposit is Western Union... minimum $100. Which is why I am asking about them before I make the investment.
i have a visa option for deposit, min 20 dollars, but they charge a 4.5% fee, haven't used it yet though, so not sure how well it worksQuote:

I hate there software with a passion. multi table is so difficult. there is no way really to keep track of the other players due to them being numbered. but there support is the best i found, they reply to emails very quickly and have a good call center. this is all in my opinion
The visa is tricky in the United States.
As far as Bovada goes their customer service is the best, they are prompt at answering emails, and they have their customer service telephone number posted you can use as well, they are extrememly helpful.
The sngs and cash tables are soft and easy to build on.
There cashouts are usually quick
Now the downside,
Filling up multitable sngs are slow like Carbon.
At all of the tables you are a number not a name, so note taking on anyone is impossible. your number changes and corresponds to when you registered for a game. (if you registered 3rd for a sng, you will be #3)
I play there alot,,, mainly because I belonged to Bodog.. when they left the USA market all was switched to Bovada. Really don't care for the unknown ID's at the tables...to easy for colusion. Plus you can't keep notes on players accept for that one game. Haven't tried to cash out there, but when it was Bodog it was one of the best sites around,,,fast and free for a check,,, Hope this helps
Thanks a lot for all the imput. I appreciate it.
thanks for the info i too am going to download bavodo i certainly am sick of the merge network have been for awhile going to give it a shot
Don't like it much. But with the recent Cake Poker Account transfers happening to us USA players. I am truly mulling over the option of a complete stop to any online playing (or depositing) on any of the networks including merge. Because whats not to say there won't be an e-mail in your inbox tommorrow saying the same about merge.
I like Bovada. It's the site I play at mainly and have my bankroll on. Never had any trouble withdrawing and it's relatively fast (2 weeks)compared to what I hear about other sites. It's also free to request a check once per month which IMO is a lot better then any of the others.Quote:
