Pokerstars bonuses cashout restricted?

[Macint0sh]

Simple question: Are PS bonuses cashout restricted? Meaning, can I cash out some of the money in my account there and not forfeit my stacked bonuses?

pokerstars bonuses never expire. you just have to wait 48 hours from your last deposit before trying to withdraw.

[Macint0sh]

OK, thank you.

THAT IS INCORRECT. If you have a pending bonus at pokerstars, you can not cash out until you clear the bonus.

This is completely and heinously incorrect. I have three current bonuses pending and I cashed out after the first one to wait for the second one and after the second to wait for the third one.

So where'd you hear that?

[peregrine]

Absolutely wrong. I have several times deposited, withdrawn entire amount without playing a hand, then re-deposited month or two later, and earned the bonus.

Only 3.

I wish I had only 3 to work off.

And there are no restrictions on withdrawls. For all 11 of the ones I have sitting there I have deposited and withdrawn all or most of the money after 48 hours.

Sheesh.

Wish I had 11 to be worked off....I didn't get a stars account until fairly recently, so I only have a couple :-(
