Poker Host Scam
Life is funny it seems like there is a natural tit for tat. One thing goes bad and another opportunity opens up. At first I wanted to write this blog about how PokerHost stole my money from my account. Yea that’s write they stole my money, but I’m not going to waste any more time discussing it I have already posted threads and been called various names. If you want more details just visit this page http://www.pokersteamroom.com/Poker__News_/p2_articleid/114.
The fact of the matter is I have said my peace and if anyone is foolish enough to put there money on Pokerhost or any of the Merge network sites for that matter, then you deserve what happens to you. Besides I will lay you 3 :1 that most of the name callers on these forums are pimple faced geeks who’s idea of getting laid is sitting at home on a Friday night jerking off to Asian midget porn. After pokerhost robbed me I went looking for another site to play on. Options being limited because of Black Friday I decided on Cake Poker. Idk if it was karma or what but I have had a…… dare I say it good run on Cake in just over 7 days of playing I have made 11 final tables and even took home a 1st place finish. I give some credit to karma but also some goes to me putting in the hours of studying trying to improve my game. While I am happy so far with where I have built my bankroll, I don’t want to fall in love with Cake just yet. I still haven’t cashed out so I’m not sure how that will go. Also Cake doesn’t really have a lot of action this is both a gift in a curse. It is refreshing to play an online tournament against only 100 or so players but there are very few guaranteed tournaments and the ones they have are very small because of the limited number of players. Also the cash game action is sporadic, with the highest limit being played consistently at about 1-2 NL or .25 - .50 NL. My plan for June is to put in some heavy hours on Cake and mix in some live tournaments. I’m not playing any W.S.O.P event’s unless of course I can satty into the main, but I do plan on playing some of the DSE, Golden Nugget and Caesars events. Speaking of the W.S.O.P I was extremely surprised by Phil Ivey’s decision to sit out of the W.S.O.P to protest the players on Tilt not getting their money back. It took a lot of guts to come out and do what he did. His statement displayed a sense of comradely rarely shown by players in today’s me first culture. I was even more surprised because it was Phil Ivey, someone who’s private life and stoic demeanor have become legendary. It goes to show that they best let their actions speak louder than any words ever could. Good for you Ivey!
Till next time I’ll holla.
