Basically at Atlantis, the Royal Towers are getting ghetto and are very mid 90s looking, whereas the Cove is incredibly nice. Looks like Pokerstars didn't splurge to put him in the Cove tower.

That's actually one of the better rooms in the Coral Towers in Atlantis. It's a one bedroom suite.

His prediction wasn't ridiculous. We had to cut back to survive. We have a new managing company that will help us finally get some much needed revenue in 2010. But to really thrive, I think we need the UIGEA overturned so we can get the online sites throwing more advertising dollars around.

Re: pokerroad will die

Barry, I can't believe you still want to associate your name with pokerroad.

With pokerroad trying to legitimize Ultimate Bet by sweeping all their dirt under a rug.

You clearly should have a major impact on the direction pokerroad takes with regard to UB. If you don't then you should disassociate yourself of pokerroad.

You were a symbol of trust and respect within the poker community. Which is why Poker Stars would want to be associated with you. You being connected with Pokerroad indirectly links Poker Stars and Ultimate Bet. Stars can't be happy with this and neither is the poker community.

Honestly I am not trying to put you down. I held you in the highest estem when i first herd of you (first tournament win that was donated to charity). Do you need pokerroad's potential money that much to tarnish your image.

I expected more from you.

Hey Barry

I guess the prediction wasnt ridiculous. I maybe just got a little steamed up because i have just (in the last 2months) got hooked on the pokerroad website, i love "the life of ivey" "blogfessional" "pokerroad radio" and i suppose "tips from the bear" isnt too bad lol

I hope that the company starts doing better business, as i think all of the pokerroad team are pretty cool guys (especially amanda) haha

GL with everything and i really do hope for yours and alot of the american poker players sakes that the UIGEA does get overturned.

Regards
SystemCheck

You should read in the thread about Joey and Ub in NVG to understand more. I don't support Ub.

Would your response be the same if the Pokercast had won?
