imo, it's still a random if you never talked to him/her or never did any transactions with him/her

Your point is valid Spamz, but go berate Bryan about his loss to Robert while you're at it please.

i already did i think

Why would someone chop hu sngs ?? for the VPPs ??

This topic is now in the internet poker forum here: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/28.../#post17528578

If anybody interested could post their thoughts, it would be helpful for OP there.

We finally have a fair decision. I just got off the phone with Stars security, here's what they've decided:

PokerStars is honoring the chop agreements in chat with all users that were scammed by Dmoney751 (or any other users that we're not aware of).

If PokerStars does not send you an email in the next 36 hours and you were a player that agreed to a chop in the player chat and never received that chop, email support@pokerstars.com with the subject "Never received Chop, ATTN Security." In the email list the tourney ID. If you have any questions about this or need any assistance, you can contact me and I will give you a hand.

In addition, I brought up the subject of perhaps spotlighting the "no deals allowed" rule in the lobby a bit better. They have a crowded lobby, so there are no promises, but they are aware of this and certainly think it's worth trying to do.

Lastly, I explained that this was a fairly rare occurrence, it didn't seem to hardly ever happen outside of this Dmoney751 guy, and the other major factor was that chops used to be enforced in chat (meaning you could chop with the shadiest guy, as long as he agreed to it in the chat because support would uphold these agreements) and that most players seemed to have no idea that the rule had changed. With the threads on multiple forums where heads up sng players frequent, this should be a much smaller potential problem moving forward.

Just remember, no deals are allowed in two man heads up sngs anymore. If you have suggestions such as "make a deal" features, you can email them to Stars support or post them in the PokerStars improvement thread on 2p2's internet poker forum.

Hi guys,

one question: Do you get problems with the choping?
I did it several times without any problems and now Im a bit concerned if you might get problems with cashouts or something?

Thanks a lot

Most of the time, it doesn't cause any problems.

Beware of chopping with player: androo11 from Sweden (supernova). We choped 60 euro HU Turbo on Poker Stars on 17.01.2012 (he propose the chop). Asked him 2 days ago about the $ from chop and nothing changed ( no $ from him in my account) . So i emailed PS and they did exception and refunded me 60 euro from Pokers Stars money. Big Thank You to Poker Stars, beware and chop only with people you can trust.
