April Lock Poker iPad2 Promotion

This promotion has received a lot of interest since it initially launched. To speed up the support process we have compiled a list of frequently asked questions with answers below. If you have any additional questions that we have not answered, please feel free to email us at support@thenuts.com.
What exactly do you get with this promotion?
You will receive 35% rakeback and can also compete in Lock Poker's 'Battle of the Ronin' rake chase. In addition, if you rake $1,000 within 60-days of your first deposit you will receive an iPad2 (16gb). You MUST deposit before May 31st.

Will I receive a first deposit bonus with this promotion?
Players are not eligible for a first deposit bonus with this promotion. However, after you have completed the iPad2 promotion you can take advantage of the 100% up to $600 deposit bonus, although you would need to make a second deposit.

Can I receive cash instead of the iPad2?
Yes, $499 cash is an option if you prefer that instead of the iPad2.

Is there a minimum deposit to qualify for this promotion?
There is no minimum deposit, but a deposit is required.

Does the rake I generate on Lock Poker count towards a free CardRunners membership?
Yes it does. If you rake $1,000 for this promotion you would have met the $500 MGR requirement for a free month of CardRunners!

To which countries do they ship the iPad?
We will be able to provide all players in any country that Apple will officially ship to with an iPad2 through this promotion.

What is the difference between VIP point accumulation for players with or without rakeback?
6.50 VIP / $1 in rake/fees for rakeback players
10 VIP / $1 in rake/fees for non-rakeback players

How many Merge rakeback accounts can you have?
You’re only allowed to have one rakeback account on the Merge Network at a time. However, if your first Merge Network rakeback account has been inactive for 60-days or more you are eligible to sign-up on a new Merge Skin with rakeback, like Lock Poker.

How do you switch rakeback accounts on the Merge Network?
All you need to do is sign up for Lock Poker through our site and you'll automatically start getting rakeback on Lock. You don't need to do anything else to activate it - you're automatically eligible.

I am active on another Merge Network skin, can I still participate in the iPad2 promotion without rakeback?
Yes you can. You will be eligible to receive the iPad2 if you sign-up through TheNuts and rake $1,000 within the allotted time period and you can also compete in the 'Battle of the Ronin' Rake Chase.

Is it possible to upgrade to a more expensive iPad2 model?
If you would prefer an upgraded iPad2, you can take the $499 cash option and then pay the difference between the 16gb model and the one of your choosing.

Do I have to wait until May 31st to complete the promotion?
No you don't, we will be contacting players as soon as they cross the $1,000 rake mark and submitting their orders.

How long will delivery take for the iPad2?
We cannot estimate the time of delivery at this time, as it depends on how quickly Apple can process and deliver the order to your address.
