So I currently play 10nl at Full Tilt and don't have Rakeback. Which sucks. I have been trying to start playing at pokerstars but I can't deposit. Apparently there is a restriction on my card that won't let me use it for online gambling.

My first thought was pay someone on here through paypal and they could just transfer money to my account, but then I wouldn't get the bonus, which I really want. And Im not sure if you can withdraw if you haven't made a deposit.

Apparently for Echecks you have to be 21. I tried. Is there any other way I can get money on to Pokerstars and get the deposit bonus?

I know you can't use Neteller, but can US players use Moneybookers?

Western Union maybe. US players can't use moneybookers that I'm aware of.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

The only problem with Western Union is that the minimum deposit is $100 and I was hoping to just deposit $50 and gring some SnG's before moving to cash. It's looking like thats the only option right now so I might just have to suck it up and deposit $100.

Jason is an unknown quantity at this point
I've had a similar problem in the recent past and I highly recommend Western Union. With credit cards, it's a constant game to figure out which ones will accept them and which ones won't. There's no rhyme or reason and ones that may accept them today won't tomorrow.

Just deposit $100 and pretend and play like you've only deposited $50. Good luck with whatever you decide.

It looks like there's a fee that comes along with Western Union, also. Can a deposit to a western union account online or do I have to go to a brick and mortar store to put money in?
