Re: Cake Poker Ships Pot to Wrong Player

What in the name of God is going on in above picture? -- If its real, why is ZeeJustin saying "If I'm a cheater, so are you"

Also, I hope this isn't a timing issue, so as some dude of a previous page suggested, a poker players union wouldn't be a bad idea.

This is ridiculous, why doesn't Lee Jones have answers yet. I'm not sure I trust the integrity of Cake software team anymore.

Re: Cake Poker Ships Pot to Wrong Player

You cant expect the cake team to just fix this in an hour, they need to find the problem or simulate the problem to find the cause I'd say. Lets hope this works out allright ^_^

also, if you say this happened to you as well you prolly want to back it up with some proof :S

Re: Cake Poker Ships Pot to Wrong Player

If OP had emailed cake and told them what had happened and said he was going to post this in NVG on 2p2, what are the odds of them offering compensation (a bribe so to speak) so he doesn't expose it? - Considering this happened at the micro stakes and only 6 people would have known about it (providing none of them were members of any forums and had no real method to share it with such a high volume of people).

Yah, I agree. Everybody that says this happened to them, too, lets see the hands. Cake lets you post hands like the OP, lets see them.

I know if this happened to me I'd for sure have copied down that hand id.

I considered this myself. Its unlikely they would offer any sum of money though unless they managed to get every player at the table to sign a confidentiality agreement, plus they would probably be concerned that should any negotiation to "keep hush" fail it would look even worse on the site for attempting a cover up.

In truth unless this incident turns out to be another UB it wont shut down Cake. I doubt player numbers will hardly take a hit initially as even those who say they will move generally don't, but it will impact on them later on unless they make a massive media effort to explain themselves.

At the moment Cake offer such good rakeback deals plenty of regs just rakeback whore on their site. That's fine when you have a non-reg player pool and new members signing up daily. However, the life-cycle of a non-reg is quite short and if your new signups are hit because of negative media then what are you left with? A bunch of regs rakewhoring on their site who will eventually move to the next site with a good deal once they realize thats where the fish have gone.

Re: Cake Poker Ships Pot to Wrong Player

SERIOUS QUESTION!!!!

Anyone interested in using this incident as an opportunity to try and force Cake to ship each and one of us (who request it) the entire HHs for all the hands that we ever played on Cake?????

I know I read a post earlier this week somewhere with you talking about it's more important to get the new software right rather than just get it out there. Upon further review, I have no idea when it was posted here. I apologize for the mixup.

Serious question? Why don't you have your hand histories?

Another serious question. Are lots of people pulling their cash off the site over this? I hope so. I'm not, its really not that big of a deal if its an isolated incident, but I hope all 2+2ers freak out and split the site.

It'll be just me and the sports bettors.

Now this. confirmed real. Internet Poker is safe, why would it be rigged? They would lose customers if they rigged it...

LOL. Withdrawing my roll from Cake. such a joke
No one cares that you're moving your 20$ roll.

Re: Cake Poker Ships Pot to Wrong Player

Logically, it's doubtful that the error is in the hand evaluation algorithm, otherwise the frequency of occurance would be higher. Much more likely is a disconnect/timing issue as other posters have surmised.

Re: Cake Poker Ships Pot to Wrong Player

a couple things:
1. The sky is not falling. It's a bug. It's been documented once out of a billion hands, and its being addressed.
2. Its a bug, its not cheating.
3. Lee Jones is the nuts. He is honest, quick to respond, and talks to us like human beings.
