Default Littlewoods Poker

I signed up for Littlewoods poker yesterday.
I have a number of questions before I start depositing my money there. I tried to send them to CS but got no answer. Maybe someone here could help me.

1. Is there a charge for deposit/withdrawl of funds via Neteller?

2. If I use US funds are they converted into GBP or do they stay in Dollars? I ask this because I looked at my account at it says I have 0 funds (which I obviously expected) but says it is in GBP.

3. Is there a sign-up bonus?

1. Yes, normal $1 for the ecashdirect withdrawal and also fee (charged by neteller i believe) for changing from GBP back to $.

2.converted to GBP, but you can still play euro/GBP/$ tables

3. 25 GBP for 250 dealt each month + 100% deposit bonus up to 25 GBP in the casino each month

Every other site pays the Neteller fee. Why are they so stingey?
Also, don't you lose out on exchange rates by converting back and forth?

Not sure I understand this bit. If it is converted to GBP then how are you playing in $?

So, overall, is it worth the trouble?

1. They pay the neteller fee; the 1 unit withdrawal fee is across the board at all the e-cash sites. And, yes, you lose a few points when converting.
2. Your deposit is in GBP; once at the site if you choose a $$ table they convert it for you. Your balance is always displayed (in the cashier) as GBP.
3. Yes.

The GBP tables are a little looser. Player quality is more complicated; the following is just my opinion, which could be criticized by every European player who posts on 2+2. The Europeans are not quite as strong at limit games but are quite skilled at PL/NL, and the GBP tables are dominated by Europeans. So the GBP limit tables are more profitable than the $$ limit tables. Remember that you're playing for twice the stake that you're used to, however, so take that into account when judging a table's potential.

I'm willing to make that broad-brush generalization only because there aren't many European 2+2'ers playing limit on the Cryptos. If "Sup Bro" gets a response from a European, consider yourself warned. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
