Hey Guys,

Im dying over here. I cant play poker online anymore as Visa and Neteller no longer accepts online transactions from Canadians, and I dont feel like sending in a cheque or doing EFT, takes too long. I am stuck playing crappy freerolls, and wasting my FPP. Can anyone out there pls PM me a gaming hall in the North York or Etobicoke area? I know one in Mississauga, but thats too far.

PLEASE PM if possible. Any info would greatly be appreciated.

try another poker site. I use pokerstars and just went into my account. I did not see any info about not being able to use credit cards for deposits.

Ive tried Poker Stars and Party Poker, nadda on both. I called Neteller, and they said as of March 21/07, Canadian residents can't use Neteller services. Visa, which is my cc company I was told does not allow these type of gamling transactions. I have good credit, and that pisses me off.

Thanks for the reply though.

I live in the U.S. and getting money into your online poker account is worse than getting a mortgage these days. I recently added to both my Poker Stars and Full Tilt accounts, using a third party service called ePassporte.

First, you have to register your bank account at ePassporte. This takes 2-3 days. Then you have to transfer money into your ePassporte account. This takes 7 business days. Finally, you can then transfer that money into your gaming account.

I thought all this online gambling stuff was a breeze for Canadians.

Every online poker site will run a private game for you. I participate in several each month. I've never tried to set one up, but I'm sure if there are enough players, sites like PokerStars and Full Tilt will let you play there.

They'll collect a fee, of course. Typically 10%, so if you set up a game with say, a $20 buy-in, they'll charge you $2 per player, so each player effectively buys in for $22, $20 of which goes into the prize pool.

LOL! You are either being very kind or mocking me as usual.

No, folks, I am what's known as a donkey, dead money, or a walking ATM, at the poker table. I would definitely characterize myself as someone who knows just enough about the game not to make a complete fool of himself, but not enough to not get himself in trouble with failed reads and ill-conceived moves. But I do like to play.
