Wow this guy is totally delusional lol. The above never happened anywhere except in his mind.

He gas never taken a dime from me at the tables ( I don't even play online poker anymore except CC events..

The only messages we ever exchanged were about the Freeroll Club - it will come as no shock that he was rude and delusional about those too. 😉

And we in turn can laugh at your ignorance on a topic you obviously know nothing about. There was no freeroll list and some of our members had $10k plus on Lock (some still do).

Have you got anything of value to add to this forum? If not go spew somewhere else.

And you're a liar as well, since I have never said any such thing. Dakota told you the same thing that everyone else was told: they simply were not replying anymore to her in regards to member cashouts, and she has been very up front about the situation. She tried to help as many as she could, but never gave any guarantees. Anyway, don't know why I'm bothering to reply to you, since your time here is done.

This just in, people don't value PLAY MONEY VERY HIGHLY. I'm happy for you that you actually found a site you can beat, after it is shut down, you can go to Zynga Poker. Your name sounds like you work with Lock. Keep on hoping.

Over a year, lock poker still pocketing my money

It has now been over a year since my original request for withdrawal. Several times a month I send Lock a note asking for an update. They respond with one of several boilerplate lies. Here are some highlights for your amusement:

"Quinn" writes on June 27, 2013:
"We are terribly sorry for the delay of your payout. The reason you’ve been waiting this long is due to a processing issue. Each 3rd party provider we work with can only send out so much on a daily/weekly basis, which has created a backlog."

"Diana" writes on Aug 26, 2013:
"Apologies again for the amount of time your cashout is taking. There are delays right now as we mentioned which means they're running much slower than we would all like. Your cashout will be sent and be with you as soon as we possibly can and at that time we will email you immediately."

"Jack" writes on Sep 30, 2013:
"We fully appreciate your frustration. We are dealing with a backlog of requests and this has to be worked through taking into account the limitations that the processor must operate under. We know this is not an ideal situation and as soon as we have an update you will be notified."

"Lance" writes on Oct 10,2013 (this is a good one):
"We currently use multiple providers, but due to their policies and procedures we need to make some changes. Once we're in a position to select another processor, that's exactly what we'll do to get your payout sent out."

"Quinn" writes on Dec 10, 2013:
"Due to processor limits, MTCN delivery can take longer than normal. But assure you that your payout verified and will receive your Pickup information soon."

"Quinn" writes on Jan 16, 2014 (occasionally they feed BS about some change they have made to speed up payouts):
"Your payout has been verified and is with our Cashier team for processing. We are very sorry for the delay but it should not be much longer now at all. We have implemented new solutions to help work though our backlog and begin to payout players at a faster rate."

"Mary" writes on Feb 15, 2014 (this one is awesome):
"We understand you are frustrated, but the Cashier Manager has assured us that you should not have to wait too much longer"

"Quinn" writes on April 8, 2014:
"All withdrawal requests are being honored and paid out. I'm afraid they are just taking quite a bit longer than we would all like at the moment. But assure you, you will receive your funds."

"Quinn" writes on June 8. 2014:
"We understand that our payout timeframes are quite long and that you are experiencing an extended delay in receiving your payout. This by no means is an ideal situation for both the company and our customers however rest assured that your payout will be sent. We are asking our customers continued patience while we work through the current backlog."

On the last one, let me comment on the "by no means is an ideal situation for both the company and our customers". Actually, IT IS ideal for the "the company". Lock has takes deposits, but never pays out the winnings. That means the player gets screwed over, but it's about as ideal as it gets for Lock.

PLEASE DO NOT SUPPORT THE LOW LIFE THIEVES AT LOCK POKER BY DEPOSITING OR PLAYING IN THEIR ONGOING SWIDLE

More sad than amusing. They should be liable for accrued interest as well......after all, they have been holding your money for free for over a year now.....unfortunately, this is the problem with unregulated markets: no way to really sue to get your money back.....can't wait until online poker is regulated in my state, NY, so I don't have to worry about this kind of thing. In the meantime, I don't keep more than a few hundred dollars ina poker account at one time. Ufortunately, experience has told me that my funds are probably not that safe in the unregulated US online poker offerings. I mean, what is stopping any company from closing shop and just keeping my money with no chance of any legal recourse by the victimized clients? ANSWER: pretty much nothing!

Phill Hellmuth??? What's he have to do with anything?
Click to expand...


He is probably referring to the Ultimate Bet ordeal. He does have a small tie in this though, he owns a portion of Cardplayer. Cardplayer months and months after it was known that Lock was a scam still supported Lock and had them sponsored all over their website. They would not listen to anyone or respond when anyone asked them their affiliation with Lock and that it hurting honest people who end up depositing on the site.
 
Phil Hellmuth didn't have anything to do with the UB thing though. Didn't know that he owned a portion of Cardplayer but does he have any decision powers or does he own a portion to make more money?

People don't care. The famous line of guilty by association comes in to rule here. I don't really care about it one way or the other. I don't mind Hellmuth, but don't care what he does. There was a pretty big thread about Cardplayer advertising Lock in NVG 2+2.
 
My reply to Lock Poker free play offer

Though your gift is a nice gesture you have to be out of your mind if you think for one second that in any way will I play anything on your site. You now owe me $1000.00. $400.00 of which has been owed for well over 1 year and $600 recently won and by the way seen that pay out request accepted. I always repost all your responses on line to all the poker sites as we now all find it amusing to see what excuse you will use next for why you still havnt paid anyone. I just keep saving all your e-mails and waiting for the day when your sued so that I can take my place in line with all the others you have screwed over waiting to get paid. Whats amazing is that there are still a few people who play at Lock Poker proves there are still some villages missing there idiots. If you ever do send me a check and it does actually cash I will post that. Soon after I will also notify the paramedics because of all the people having heart attacks seeing that you finally paid some one. Until dont waste your time or mine sending me anything even free money because its not money unless you can actually get it and spend it. Other wise its nothing more than a pipe dream of a promise. So put that in your pipe and smoke it cuz you must be high to think I still have faith in anything coming from you. Jay

How can they afford to "give away" $109 tickets? Funny how all the other sites aren't this "generous".... doesn't look good still
 
Lock owes me money going on 15 months now. I'm glad it's not a ton of cash.

Well if you don't give checks to any of those people who cash out what is the value of those 109 tickets? Absolutely nothing, they do this just to create an IMAGE of a healthy site.
 
There is probably not an "Emily" - nobody there would use their real name at this point. It is probably Shane lol.
