Make up means paying back what you're down if you bail out?

Yeh make up = net loss

Why not speak to bv and explain the situation, see if you can control certain staked account cashiers? This would stop them withdrawing if they lose etc?

Choves: Why not speak to bv and explain the situation, see if you can control certain staked account cashiers? This would stop them withdrawing if they lose etc?

Sorry you have missed the point here. Players cannot withdraw etc and that is not the problem.

The situation:

A player loses and gets into say 300 euros make up. They then don't want to quit as they will have to pay it. Instead they play less, don't post on the forum, don't respond to me and then make up excuses.

Then we have to basically drop them and take the full loss as it is pointless having them stay around.

Ah yeah I'm with you, thought they were just taking money - sorry mate. That's brutal :/ name and shame imo, can at least save others from the same bs people.

Name a shame +10000

Really hope these people don't ruin it for players who would want to contribute towards this in the future.

that dose suck for you jon maybe you should do with new guys what we talked about on skype . as for name an shame I don't think its any ones business who they are besides the staker an the player

It is if you're a potential future staker.. if people can't be trusted to be staked then the community at large should know.

I guess that way but if you were or anyone else then I'm sure jon would av no problem telling you in a pm all the names his crossed over the years to watch out for I mean it makes no odds to me if there named or not maybe doing it once would put an end to it but I don't think or jon has the hart to do that he can be too nice some times he would make a bad loan shark hehe

Haha yeah I know what you mean man, but have to draw the line somewhere :/ and as you say might stop others if they know the community will be informed

yup for sure cant keep getting robbed anyway. like some people don't care if they lost his money was just a bit off free fun for them

Yeah I'm +1 for naming and shaming for what are in effect "runners", as it it then documented somewhere for any future backers on different sites etc can find if they googled the name/usernames

I guess its ok to name them its not like there going to care there prob not even on this site anymore so they wont know about in

So a new month begins and we are ready to show the world how we roll and produce a profitable month on the tables and also win some Top 350 money and of course print some rake back.

Also our staked players will be battling it out to have a 1-1 video sweat live review made with our new coach Ming. Valued at $200+ per hour this is obviously a great prize for our guys and will help them incredibly with their game. They can play a session and discuss some hand histories which have bothered them.

How to win this session:

Competition: Runs from 00:01am Friday 11th September - Monday 21st September 23:59PM.

Participants(unless any new players sign up before)

Hello dudes. Just wanted to pop in and say hello. Good luck to everyone competing this month, and may the equity be with you, always. Look forward to helping you improve via video or in the forums.

Man have you had a profitable month yet? I know variance plays a part but im shocked that with these players it seems like you're down more often than not.

Truth is it was not these players who have lost. Was 4 people who lost over 500 euros and just ran on us.

You have the worst luck man, props to you for keeping the positivity and giving people chances.

@Obliterate Yeh sadly it shows the poker world in quite a bad light even tho they are a seriously small % of the players out there. The main thing to remember are all the good guys and i am sure we will keep at it with our current crew and also find new guys to add in to the team!
