I won $540 @ Victor Chandler Poker, they refuse to pay me because, I live in USA. No where can I find anything about not allowing USA players, except maybe small print in conditions which I have never read at any site. The players that I won this from will not get there money back. This is an outrage.

Get someone who has an account at VC and say for example Paradise to do a fund swap with you ( ie you transfer your money to their VC account and they transfer the same ammount to your Paradise account ).

A soloution maybe ?

My advice to all, at the risk of sounding like a dink, is DO NOT PLAY ON VCPOKER.COM. I won a freeroll there and then tried to cash out. They removed the funds from my account and told me (after having paid funds to the account) that I was disqualified from the freeroll because I shouldn't have played more than one (in fairness, they did say elsewhere on their web page, "please only play in one freeroll," but I take that as a polite suggestion. Anyhow, I didn't see a nickel of my money and I strongly doubt that they paid it off to some other player from the tournament.

To make a long story short, I would be very surprised if anybody were able to withdraw a substantial amount of money from Victor Chandler without at least having a big hassle.

I am sorry to hear about all the difficulties. Often it is only those which comes out in the daylight. I did not have any problem to cash out by check. and when i discovered that my Swedish bank did not cash in foreign checks, i asked them to chancel the check, and that was no problem. Even when they have sent it. I come within the promised time frame.

I think they may have been reticent about paying me because I signed up, won a freeroll and then tried to cash out all my money - obviously they're not getting any more business from me, so I guess they decided that I wouldn't be worth paying.
