Does anyone have online poker experience?

Question

i currently play on a site called Bugsys Club. i am looking to cash money out from the site and the only way I can is through epassporte.

does anyone have experience with this poker software or with espassporte? is it safe and easy? how do the costs compare to other e-wallets, etc?

Answer 1

I used epassporte MANY years ago when I first started playing poker online.  I have only played Freerolls at Bugsys Club.  Epassporte was fine when I used it -- but like I said, that was many years ago.  Most sites have many other options.  If epassporte is your only option with Bugsys Club, then the costs of other ewallets doesn't really matter.  But if I were you, I'd cash that money out and put it onto a bigger site with more deposit and cashout options like PokerStars, FullTilt, Bodog, or DoylesRoom.

P.S. As mentioned in one or two of my previous posts today about online poker, I find the eCheck cashout at PokerStars to be fast and easy.  It doesn't cost anything and you have the money in your checking account in 3-5 business days.  Very convenient.

Answer 2

ePassporte has unfortunately left much of the online poker world high and dry as far as poker site payment processing is concerned.  They dropped service from sites like Full Tilt and Poker Stars several months ago.  I don't know why they would keep service through other, smaller sites.  I used to cash out regularly with ePassporte, and even purchased their Visa Check card for $35.  It was the BEST way to cash out with poker sites until they unceremoniously left a great deal of poker business!  

I would tread warily if this is your only option.  They should also at least offer check payout and/or bank transfers or eChecks.  If you can STILL use ePassporte, get your money out of that site as soon as you can before you are stuck with no payment processors and your hard earned money is locked up in that site.  For more information about common deposit/withdrawal methods and reviews of other great sites, check http://poker-lobby.com Hope this helps.
