Hi folks,

I'm new to online poker. I would like to make my initial deposit but I just don't feel comfortable using my CC for depositing.

I've got a friend who can wire me some money through MoneyBookers.

So my Q: Do I have to verify my Mooneybookers a/c before being able to deposit at the poker rooms?

Well first off--what poker site is it?

I have never even heard of moneybookers until now.

I suggest Ewallet--and if you are unsure of a site to join, it's best to join one of the newer sites that meet all of the updated laws, such as: throwdownpoker.com. They have a lot of new things the current sites don't have, standard bonuses and all that-- dont forget to use the promo code of FR1083 if you/you and your friend to decide to join that site. I play on there, full tillt, absolute, ultimate bet...all of them, and the great thing about joining a NEW site is a lot of their guarantee tournaments don't get a lot of entries just yet, so you have a better chance of winning more money
