Skrill No Longer an Option on Adjarabet
Key Takeaways
  • East European site Adjarabet has removed the option to deposit and withdraw via Skrill from its cashier.
  • The unofficial Adjarabet representative on 2+2 has failed to respond to complaints and made no response to a request for comment from pokerfuse.
  • Unofficial 2+2 rep “nochapis” explained that he had been ill for a couple of weeks. He promised to address outstanding questions and PMs within 24 hours, but has not returned to the Adjarabet thread since December 30.

Eastern European site Adjarabet has removed the option to deposit and withdraw via Skrill from its cashier.

The unofficial Adjarabet representative on 2+2 has failed to respond to public complaints and made no response to a request for comment from pokerfuse.

Georgia-licensed and focused Adjarabet rose to prominence recently with its introduction into PokerScout’s rankings in September 2013, part of the poker room’s campaign to expand its player base beyond the former Soviet republics such as Kazakhstan, which lie on its borders.

It is one of two online poker rooms licensed in the Republic of Georgia. Adjarabet’s owners also operate the Adjara Casino in the capital Tbilisi.

The poker manager, a British citizen relocated to Georgia, had been posting as “nochapis” on popular community forum 2+2, where he had promoted the room and responded to customer inquiries. His last post, on December 30, promised to respond to questions within 24 hours.

Adjarabet has limited options for non-resident players to deposit and withdraw, so the absence of Skrill both imperils their plans to expand internationally and causes concern to newly recruited players who depended on the online payment processor for access to their funds.
