@ponty is wrong though, Stars security is working hard.
Lately 2 or 3 of my withdrawals went through this process:
pending for 2-3 days, then a red message under it that says smth like "There were some issues, contact support".
I go thinking "damn, are they gonna say that whatever player that shoved air on me someday stole that $ and chip dumped it to me or wtf did I do wrong?!"
So I contact support and they say smth like "oh it's nothing we just did an extensive review of your gameplay and you're fine, we've approved your withdrawal just now"...
WTF? Why not just keep the withdrawal pending, review whatever and then approve, why do you put a RED message that says contact support 2 days after "Withdrawal under review" (red) message.
And when I do they just reply after a few hours telling me they have approved it without requesting anything from me.
So yea, as long as you're a former 2x SNE and playing on PS for 8+ years while also being a known member of the forums you get that crap multiple times.
But you can be a russian new accounter who was born with the ability to multitable and beat midstakes on PS right off the bat and ... PS security is cool with you

lineup*91, exist for a year without doing anything, year later all of sudden multitabling midstakes with the eastern european strat, sometimes does the weirdest thing but river is his best friend
and stars not even question this one bit, after all the bot rings and w/e

Happened to me also. After about a week and no money I checked the cashier and emailed Stars. No reply but money was in bank in 2 days. Weird.
ever thought about stars letting the bots gather a sample, then shut them down (and keep their winnings) when they have enough evidence?
you surely cant close accounts after 2k hands or so
all well and good if theyve ever banned an account by themselves. but given i havent had a refund since last round of bots getting banned 1.5 years ago. doubt theyre even looking at players.
wasnt it something like ~3mil being taken out of economy last time botters getting banned? hardly keeping their winnings. (maybe that was just from plo)
Nobody at stars actually works outside of the promotion department. My friend found a guy on stars.fr playing 24hrs a day for a full week. He'd also end up by himself on a bunch of tables because he rarely switched, would play right away if someone sat. Low quality obvious bot.
They investigated and reported that he was human after a day.
Now he's going on 14 days with no break.

when they are moving backwards there
i think that lineup 91 guy its very very weird!! idk
kinda the same, couple of months that he played under 1k hands, and now crushing midstakes with insane wwsf etc is that zas*91 guy.. coincidence him and lineup are both from the soviet
Hey guys, dinosaur over here - I played MSNL from 2007 - 2011. I was wondering if people could give me advice on how to reach SSNL and MSNL pros. I've built a course to teach people how to get people with lack of job experience interviews with tech companies hiring for sales. My first student is a poker pro, so I felt like there's probably a demand here.
Here's some ideas I've toyed with:
• Twoplustwo advertising (already bought 2 ads, prob gonna post them today depending on if Bobo Fett is working on the weekend.)
• Twitch? Any streamers you recommend?
• FB Groups?
I really want to reach players that are doing this for a living. Not the casual players, so I _think_ sites like pokernews are out.
For context: I’ve seen a lot of success doing sales in technology companies. I made $300k last year and it was my 5th year in sales.
There’s also lot of parallels with sales and poker, which is why I thought of the course:
• Not being results oriented - being okay losing when you make the right strategic move.
• A lot of potential upside due to the overblown perceptions of risk. Ie: Less people want sales jobs so the comp must be higher to compensate for it.
• You must be strategic and develop plans beforehand, but it’s also important to be able to navigate unexpected moves.
• Poker players generally work hard towards improving (Using cardrunners, analyzing HHs, getting coaches). I don’t see that much of this in sales which is one of the reasons I’ve seen success quickly.
