    Default Best way to cash out large sums of money?

    So I play on full tilt, and I want to cash out maybe 2k-3k at one time (maybe more). The direct bank transfer has a cap of 900$ or so, with a limit of 2 cashouts/week, and the 10-15 business day wait. Without requesting a check, is there some alternative? Maybe some way I could get instant access to my cash?

    are you a US citizen?
    I know one way this could be done, but this is a large amount of money and i myself would never do it with my own money...
    here is an example.
    you send 2-3K to my FT account via FT transfers..
    I cash the money out into my bank account in the UK. i do not get charged for this in the UK, no taxes etc...
    I then send you the money through paypal. this would have a charge via paypal...
    I would charge a small fee of like $50 for the entire transaction...
    which it would of cost you anyways.

    this is the only other option i can think of...
    obviously you dont know me so that would be up to you
    you could always get to know me if you wanted to, but i would just reccomend a check

    I recommend a check. Whenever I cash out large amounts like that I always do check by mail. Safe and eazy. Only takes about 2-3 weeks to get the check. If for some reason you do not get the check or never cash it, the money goes back into your poker account in 60 days and the check is void. I have never had anything like that happen though. I don't know of any safe way you can get instant access to the money.

    Absolutely. Except on AP/UB. The only way anyone can get a check on AP/UB is if they have made a withdrawal by check before the start of 2011.
