Hi any other winning withdrawing mtt regs losing every important pot over and over on this network? I mean with all of the cash flow and revenue problems i keep hearing about i'm starting to wonder if i'm being cheated. 3 outers just hitting religously to knock me out of tourneys but my 3 outers are just nowhere to be found. Never a good run of cards like i have felt in the past anymore. And I know what they feel like, been playing for many years. just wondering if anyone else has been experiencing this. Take the variance and stick it where the sun don't shine b/c this aint variance. Anybody else notice this?
What you're describing is identical to what happened to me. Lock is clearly running a ponzi scheme and so they let new players win some when they first join and then rig it so they take it all back.
I never posted about this before because I knew what the reaction of all the cocky BS'rs and Lock shills on here would be. Mock the OP with their "variance", "conspiracy theory" "******", etc. comments. but I've monitored Lock for several months now, and I see the same thing happen over and over again.
A new player comes on, wins or cashes in several tourney's, keeps playing and then trends straight down like a he fell off a cliff. And Lock is all but sure that the new player won't quit because they had such a good start and then there is the several month delay in cashing out. It all but ensures that the player will get frustrated waiting, cancel their cashout request, play again, lose again, cancel the next cashout, play again, lose again. And so it goes and till Lock has all their initial money and maybe some more if the new player hasn't already given up on Lock by then.
Only about 5% of the players that were on this site a year ago are still here. Wonder why that is? Lock does one thing right....they are able to suck in new players to join and deposit just long enough to steal their money. Only a small minority of online players belong to or read Two Plus Two and thus they're easy marks.
That's why Lock wastes countless dollars signing "Pros" to represent their site.
With everything else that Lock does to it's players, ie: horror show cashout wait times, lying customer support, trashy software, etc,..it's not too much of a stretch to believe that what I and the OP have suggested isn't happening too.
No one believed UB or Full-Tilt could / would do what they did before the house came crashing down either.
All the doubters were met with the same condescending crap that happens here every time they post about the "unthinkable".
