Hello, last week I received free $3 on Mira Poker. Now it reises in few tournaments to $158 and I want to withdraw it. Unfortunately, I have heard that you need to deposit a minimum of $ 30 and is not a guarantee of payment beyond the players from Russia. Anyone have any experience with this poker room? I don't want to lose $ 30 of real money on $ 160 virtual one. I am Polish and I'm afraid that because of sanctions russian poker room will not pay me my money back. Please hel mep and sorry for my bad english

Yes, but no $30. I'm afraid about russian sanctions for West Europe only. I've heard that they can block money from various strange reasons and implement a withdrawal even more than a week. I just looking for someone who had an experience wit this room and give me 100% certain that Mira Poker is not fake xD. I must try

Hard to find a site that does not require a deposit prior to the first cash out. It is just like a rule. But you are right inquiring about that site. A few things have been heard so far. And it must be hard saying no, to the deposit cause your amount won is a nice one

I made two successful withdrawals recently from Pokermira:
€100 on 13 May 2015 €105 on 7 Aug 2015
Can't say for sure they will pay you without any problem..... but they did with me.
The second withdrawal has been delivered in two different transactions (I only asked for it once for the full amount) but the total amount was the one I asked for.
If you will decide to deposit just consider they may give you some bonus attached to your fisrt deposit and you may fullfill some playtrough requirements to clear it before your withdraw will become available.
Just ask support before depositing (if you will do it)

What magatt said about the bonus while depositing is like a common practice in casinos, trying to get you to playthrough. I havent seen anything like this in poker yet, without the need of course for a bonus code, but you never know. Better do like magatt suggested and ask support before any moves. And keep the chat history-email in your records, till you get over with it.

like everybody said the best thing is to email support and tell them if i deposit this amount , can i withdraw the whole amount ? if they replied yes , you have at least proof so they can't try to take away your money i learned from experience , every poker site will try anything so you can't cash-out so you have to follow exactly every instruction they gave you because if you forget one thing , they will try to jump on that opportunity to stop you from getting the money

I assume he doesn't need to type a bonus code while depositing (if he will deposit) because it will be, eventually, his first deposit
Here is a copy/paste from pokermira website:
[copy-paste] Make your first-ever real money deposit and get 100% bonus up to $2000. To earn your deposit bonus you must earn a required number of VIP’s (VIP Points). You can see all your earned RP’s in Cashier menu of Poker MIRA client software. The bonus is released in $10 increments, each released into your account as you earn the needed VIP’s (200 VIP’s for every $10 increment). Please notice, you have 180 days after your first deposit to earn all RP’s needed. We wish good luck on Poker MIRA tables!

From what you have posted here magatt it shows the deposit is attached to a bonus. Now someone needs to find if it is a bonus that you can choose not to participate by playing, and request the cash out, or it is a forced one, since it says "to earn your deposit", and not "to earn your bonus".
From such bonuses in old cases that i remember when i had signed up in a couple of sites, in the small print you could see them saying clearly, that in case of a cash out prior to the fulfillment of the bonus criteria you lose it.
Better clear things up with support before any deposits
