ROFL. Retarded Ipoker network policy
Posted in Poker | View Comments (8)
 

Our story is not the type that stars with once upon a time. Nor does it have a happy ending. However though, it can easily win an award for the most unbelievably dumb decision ever taken by a poker network.
One of the guys in our romanian poker community, who is a regular at NL1000 on a site owned by the Ipoker network, received an email last week, which I am going to partially paste here:

Quote:
Dear Vlad,

XXXX (poker site name) has been put under tremendous pressure by the Ipoker Network lately to comply with the network policy. To make it short the network policy stipulates that an operator needs to maintain a balance between winning and losing customers.

I am sorry to say that at the moment XXXX (poker site name) has a lot more winning than losing customers, and unless we do something immediately to rectify the situation and get in line with the network policy we will be fined sums big enough to ensure that we would be losing a lot of money.

This leaves us with no other choice than to part ways with some of our most winningest customers.

I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this causes you!

We would obviously have preferred to maintain you as a customer, but because of the current network rules and regulations it is absolutely impossible for us to do so.

Your account has been disabled. Please get back to me about how you would like to cash out your money. Feel free to add me on Skype if you have any questions or just need to vent…

Best regards,...
I just learned this last night, and believe me guys...I am stunned. I mean, wtf...are we talking about a casino losing money ???? Ffs...no matter how hard I try I am not able to find the logic behind this decision. Anyone kind to help me figure it ?

Either the support representative was talking about suicide watch or this was made up because I don't see that line being in one of the four generic email response templates.

this sounds like an attempt to get your funds. they would never ask you to "add them to skype". Rigged IMO...maybe the whole story.

Guys...This is funny as hell...Why would I come here to spread stupid news? Why would I try to denaturate the truth? No reason to do that, I am telling you...
Regarding the feel free to add me on skype line, trust me...I was wrote this in an official email I got from one of the Ipoker sites And the sender was the affiliate manager, so... take it from one who has been there.
Secondly...this player recently got the proof that the whole email was not a scam...He received his money from the poker site I was talking about. His account is still disabled though.
As unreal as it may seem, this is the truth...and it should be a signal to all Ipoker players to just quit playing there...I see this whole s**t as an offense to decent players who can actually beat this game.

The same thing that happened to Noiq no ?

"Under the new policy, any site which did not contribute positive net cash flow (player deposits minus withdrawals) would be fined by the network."

And Noiq left. So...

Ipoker is stupid and horrendusly outdated. No auto-rebuy, no resizing tables, no prefered seating. There are better sites to play at to say the least.

Sites that would welcome you no matter what level of skill you have...

People who say iPoker is out dated with regards to software should use additional software and AHK scripts. I still do not believe this email has actually been sent by an official iPoker representative or by someone related to the client your friend was playing on.

Well...for safety reasons I cannot go into further details on why I am 100% sure this is not scam, on my blog... Just one hint: I work in this industry and chances are I have a deeper insight on what happens. I did not write this post in order to try offending anyone...I did it because I still think players should be aware of what's going on.
