Do not enquire about withdrawl procedures.....I am fully aware of variance, but this takes the cake. Ran my $10.00 up to $280.00 in husng's,....talked to live chat about their withdrawl policy.....never won another heads up match until my balance was zero. Im not kidding, the bad beats came one after another. It actually became comical when my 4h4s got all in on a flop of 4c4d5d then villain calls and shows 3d8d you guessed it ...turn? 6d...river? 7d.....best of luck to anyone else . is this a RNG or is this site just randomly taking their no deposit bonuses back before anyone can cash out? you decide.
wow what an incredible story.. Sad to ear about. I did experiment some sort of the same thing with espacejeux, a poker software in and for canadian. It wasn't about me asking info to the support but everytime I was withdrawing I was having a long stretch of badbeat agaist me. That's crappy for sure

This is what i experienced in most no deposit bonusses and i dont mean poker alone also casino games...You first win and before you can reach the playthrough you start losing.

Posted by Forcharity: Maybe your just a bad player and variance finally got to you. You had a great upswing and then started losing because of lack of skill.
Anyways, PKR is a legitimate site and RNG is RNG so you just got either very unlucky, lack skill or it's both.
lack skill? man then how did he got to 280 from 10 $ in hu? is the poker site all the bonuses are bait.

if you are a bad player you cant win cash for 1 week straight . you cant have luck for 2 months straight neither for 2 weeks.. if you are a bad player you lose big time.

And where did you base that information on? Your playing freerolls and requesting all the no deposit bonuses you can, you don't know what your talking about.
I have played over 500000 hands and I know the in and outs of variance. And I actually took time to study Poker Strategy, here that is not possible so I bet you didn't.

You had a nice go there from 10 to 280. Since you say you asked about the cash out requirements and then you kept playing, i assume you couldnt withdraw yet. Maybe you should have adjusted the game, in such way to meet the requirements and have money to cash out at the end.

You are absolutely correct. I was informed that I had to make a real money deposit before I was eligible to have withdrawl priviliges ( which sort of defeats the purpose of a no deposit bonus ). I'm also aware that I could have deposited as little as $20 and hypothetically could have withdrawn my balance. But....when I saw that I could no longer win a game after enquiring about their withdrawl policy.....well it goes without saying that I was never going to deposit at this site. dont get me wrong, I had fun running that $10 up to $280 ( it took over 200 heads up matches ) but for real money deposits? i will stick to Stars thank you very much. Ps never in my life have I seen 4ofakind beaten, lol

Same at Pokerstars and all other pokersites ...you have to deposit before withdrawel.
I dont get why you didnt just deposit the 20 if you wanted to withdraw ? Think you could even deposited as low as $ 10 on PKR..

If your only requirement was the deposit there, in order to cash out, im sorry to tell you that you made a huge mistake by continue playing and losing everything. Anyone in here (and especially jessthehuman which is the one with the highest participation there) can tell you that there is nothing to fear at that site. It is a credible one and your money is secure there. All this not from personal experience, but from what ive read and seen so far for the site.
