[PokerStars PA]

[PokerStars PA]

Starting this thread for all things PokerStars for PA only. I guess there isn't a rep yet to monitor an official 22 thread so figured I'll throw this out there

I am happy to see explicitly legal online poker again. Being able to deposit w PayPal and withdraw with zero issues is awesome. What sucks is that the site has, as expected, not much traffic, but I'll take what I can get...

The Rewards Store seems lame. There's basically nothing there. I have no idea what the effective rakeback is if u max out value on teh #StarzCoinz, but it's pretty obvious it's not much. I haven't paid attention to the rake either, but I'm guessing it's high. Just out here stackin fools and chasin bigger #CHESTS...

I'm shocked to see the interface is actually not as good as the PokerStars that left me cold and lonely on Black Friday. How in the flying karate **** is that possible? It's 2019...dafuq? Why can't the tables dock to the corners of my screen? I have OCD I can't take this ****! But I digress...

There are quite a few things missing, inconsistencies, and that don't make sense, but I figure this would be the thread to point them out and maybe PS will take notice. Maybe eventually we'll get a rep and an official thread. Anyway, I'll post later to point out stuff I notice, like, and don't like, but just wanted to start a thread for the 7 people on 22 from PA...

May your cards be live and pots be monsters. Or something. Is that guy still alive?

Same for me the last several days the disconnections are brutal i emailed stars they said it wasn't on their end....

If you have Service Electric cable, I recommend just calling them and letting them know you are having issues like the rest of us. The more of us that report issues, the more likely they are to fix it (I hope).

Thanks. Played 8 hours with it today and again 0 issues. I can safely recommend it now. If it's available in your area I would snap get it. I have no faith that Service Electric is going to fix this anytime soon.

My Tmobile modem is on its way.

You dont get penalized for wds. Sometimes they pick and choose when they spam bonuses. Check your emails or their twitter to stay in the loop. Pretty sure theres a reload currently using code MARCH24.

Thanks but I lost the ability to even enter a bonus code after withdrawing. No way to even enter the code. I think there is a penalty for withdraws regarding bonuses.

Fantastic. It's been a god send for me.

Oh yeah. If you wd during an active bonus period they usually inform you first but overall you are not going to be blocked from using any bonuses in the future. I never had any issues and I cash out a lot.


by BobbyPeru k

That is annoying. Im sure they give coins in the hope you buy merch from the store and put the rake right back into their wallets lmao

500 piece chip set at PokerStars store is $200
500 piece chip set on Amazon is $140

The funniest thing about the store is the cash rebates. Flat rate across the board 100 coins = $1

It's an exciting array of choices...that all give you the same ****ing **** lol


Can someone please share a link to the PA poker discord channel that keeps getting mentioned? Anytime I ask anyone in-game, they say it will come up in Google, but it never does, and I've searched a few times. Thanks.


Yes, I have similar issues. Pokerstars PA is complete trash. They don't care if their chests rarely work, they don't care if they sit you out and say they can't verify your location.

Personally, I think it's reasonable to not trust this company.

Maryland State Poker Championship? Wtf is this?


What just happened? Looks like there was a massive internal crash or something. I exited all my tables and my buy-ins aren't in my balance. Most of the tables are empty now so I am guessing I am not the only one?

Happening to everyone


Thanks, hopefully they remedy the situation soon.


Same day as GTOWiz... anyone got a wild theory connecting them?


I cashed for 927 in the 100 nightly last night and didn't get paid. When I requested a tournament summary, it sent me the wrong tournament information and it showed it was still running. Funny thing is the completed tournament shows correct on Sharkscope.

I contacted support this morning. After waiting in chat for 37 minutes I was given this explanation.

"We are aware of the issue and our programmers are working on the fix, although no timeframe can be provided.

Due to this technical issue, effected tournaments are not showing as completed on our end.

Once resolved, all effected tournaments will be pushed through as complete and any missing winnings will be credited at that time.

We do apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused."

The tournament has been over for a good 9.5 hours.


Nice score, hopefully they get you paid soon.

The same thing happened with cash buy ins. I exited 12 tables last night around 11 when things started going crazy. The money is still missing from my account. Not touching poker until confirm they have it fixed.

It would happen on the day I decide to move up limits. Lol, go figure.

Update: "Thank you for waiting our apologies for the inconvenience caused. This is a technical error affecting multiple aspects of our platform such as Cashier, Poker and Casino.

The issue has been escalated already to our technical department that's reviewing it with the highest priority.

We hope to see it resolved as soon as possible."

Nothing to do but hurry up and wait. Almost kickoff anyway. 😀


Anyone else receive any resolve yet? I am getting the same return messages from the help bots.


Ended shortly after midnight. Only my first $34 in Knockouts are in my account.


Negative. Still $275 in cash buy ins missing.




Same issue. Left a cash table at 11:02 PM with ~2 buy-ins and money has still not been credited to my account. Received essentially the same chat bot response as others. I am going to email support shortly just for additional documentation.

I also ordered a "player history audit" and there is no record of me leaving the table in question. All other activity for the night is accurate. I am set to auto-rebuy to there it's basically impossible for me to leave a table with $0.

This is so dumb.


Update: I ran a player audit and saw I got issued a credit about an hour ago from one of the 12 tables from last night. They had it labeled a Good Will Credit (Admin) and basically matched what I had in my last hand history. They are indeed working on it, but it remains to be seen whether I will get credit for the remaining 11 tables. Me emailing my last hand history from each table may or may not help them, or might annoy them. Time will tell. 😏


Update: 11:06 PM. Money is in my account. Carry on.


I got paid.


I am still owed about $245. They told me they are still working on our accounts and they believe everything should be completely updated by Tuesday.
