More of the Same

Some new horrible shit happened to me. After going through the trouble of scanning in all my shit and sending it to Cake so their "processor" could cut my my goddamn check, I got an email back from them saying that they transferred my entire cashout amount back into my account without any explanation. I emailed them back immediately asking what the fuck they were doing and I got this reply:

Thank you for your email. Apologies but our third party check processor recently changed his policy and so it is not possible anymore to cash out via check over an amount of $3000. As the policy was unexpectedly changed and the check processor was not willing to process a requested cash out over $3000 it had to be canceled. Your are free to request the other full amount of a maximum $3000 per check. Otherwise you can cash out through eWalletxpress or Quicktender/UseMyWallet. In relation to the experienced inconvenience and for you as a valuable customer we have now credited $25 in the pending bonus section of your Poker account.

Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.

Kind Regards

Back when I titled my first post about this situation "Beat: Cake is scamming me," I was more joking than not, but now I'm really starting to wonder if I'm actually being made the victim of fraud.

Of course, being the degenerate edgemonger that I am, right after I requested my $3,000 check I sat at a few NL100 tables on Cake to try to start clearing the $25 of bonus they gave me. Obviously, this happened immediately. Villain donking out into my top pair/open ended straight draw leads me to raise because people do this all the time with garbage that they fold to a raise, and when he shoves over I think there are a lot of draws in his range so I call getting almost 3:1 with my top pair/open ended straight draw. Obviously villain shows up with a made straight.
