Mark Mierkalns had me send him $500 on 888 to his account muckandwin. He identified himself as bcans on stars and said he was going to send bitcoin shortly after. A day went by and he made an excuse that he was in Chicago and he would message the guy that was sending the BTC for him which never took place. He said a day after the transfer that it would be handled within an hour and I have not heard from him since. That was on the 9th of January and I gave him the benefit of the doubt since it was for a small amount relative to ruining his name publicly. I've seen him active online but not responding so I have decided to post here.

skype name: markmierkalns
stars: bcans

He was also a runner up in 2013 in a LHE WSOP event. Poker profile can be seen here: https://www.pokernews.com/poker-players/mark-mierkalns/

Also mentioned he ran a marketing business. Guessing that is doing well
