Slowly but surely, the online poker rooms are finding ways for U.S. customers to fund their accounts. This week, Bodog.com added the Instant Check option to the cashier. Unlike many other methods, there is no separate third-party account to create.

All that is needed to make a deposit into Bodog using Instant Check is a bank account number, routing number, and check number. Just enter these on the deposit screen, choose an amount from $20 to $500, and the funds are in the account immediately.

Unfortunately, withdrawals don’t work with this method, so players will have to receive cashouts via a check. So far, early reviews by players who have used Instant Check have been very positive.
