Yes deposit needed

[freeringo]

I contacted PDC poker to find our why I can't transfer money
to another player. I wanted to sponser 1-2 less fortunate
forum members in our next buy-in. However, they say that I must
make a deposit first. I claimed that I have over $50 on my account
and that I don't see the need to ever deposit because I don't lose
money at poker (15 years never a deposit). I asked if I could send them
documentation to verify my account. They replied that their cashier
system is automated and that they can't over ride the protocols.
That means that when I continue winning, I will have to make a deposit
first before cashing out in the future. Other sites have a certain amount
you have to win before cashing out without a deposit.
Does anyone have any advise?
The automated system kind of alarms me to not trust PDC poker.
Has anyone had trouble with PDC?
I just need to know if I am wasting my time playing at PDC.

This is pretty standard......

Deposit and cashout instantly IMO.

Send in your documents though, it helps get you instant cashouts to certain processors

Yes the easy why to get around that is find someone that will trade with you from another site that you can withdraw from. Then you will have to find a table that you both can play at with no other players, then just lose the money to that person. I have done this before and never had a problem with it. It works all the time.

I am in no way agreeing with what Dallas said.... as its illegal.

but....

That's too funny Dallas because you were the person I wanted to
sponser. If you have an idea how I can get you $11 to play the next 2
week PDC buy in games, I am all ears.

I wouldn't recommend what Dallas said because it's collusion and your account will most likely get frozen because of it.

It's pretty standard to deposit before you cash out at all the major poker rooms actually. At least the ones I've played at. I would deposit, send it your documents to verify, and cash out immediately.

After you do it once, you will be allowed to transfer, cash out without a problem, deposit, etc.

As far as PDC goes you don't have to deposit to withdraw by check, but the minimun withdrawal is $100 now and it cost $25 do it. Most of the merge sites are like this. You do have to do the ID verification to withdraw, but once you have done it you don't have to do it again.

The thing that takes the longest about this is the ID verification because the poker site wants to make sure its you on the id. It takes a few days to do this.

$100 min and $25 fee is cheap.
Cake was $500 for a check and $45 fee and then your bank fee.
I did that twice before I was invited to get an Ewallet account.
PDC has Ewallet express but I don't know if that is the same.
If it is, no problem getting my money out.
It would be nice to transfer to my friends.

What is the bank fee for cake? I've never cashed out from cake but I will be depositing to play the madness this weekend.
