Which Poker Room has the Fastest Cashouts?

It's been a rough couple of years for US poker players, first Neteller pulls out of the US market and then ePassporte pulls out leaving us with fewer and fewer deposit options and the worry of not being able to withdraw our money again once we've made our deposits. The safety of your poker funds can be assured by dealing only with large, reputable and well established poker rooms (Such as those featured on this blog).

While your money is safe; gone forever are the days of instant access to your poker funds. Expect cashouts to take days not hours like they used to. And as always never deposit more than you can afford to be without and plan ahead.

Over the last few months I've been keeping track of the time it takes me to recieve my cash after requesting a payout from various poker rooms. Results have varied widely from remarkably fast to agonizingly slow.

Here is the short list of safe, secure poker rooms in the order of how quickly they get your cash into your hands.
  1. PokerStars and UltimateBet tied for first place with checks arriving in my mailbox in about 5-7 days after approval.
  2. Full Tilt Poker was 2nd with checks arriving in about ten days.
  3. Absolute Poker took a respectable 10-14 days.
  4. The absolute worst was Doyles Room once one of my favorite places to play was by far the slowest with a typical delivery time of 30 days or more! Doyles Room is still a great place to play and your money is safe with them just be patient when you need to cash out.
