What the title says... I basically talked to online support just a few days ago about wanting them to disable casino games for me, specifically indicating that I still needed poker available. They said they could get it done, telling me that it will just be casino games that will be disabled, never once informing me about any of the other criteria attached to this. Then the next day I get this email..

Dear XXX,



This is Selena, your Celeb Poker VIP Host.

Thank you for your understanding.


Should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact the CelebPoker Support Team.
I never once said to the online support that I wanted poker disabled as well, in fact I explicitly stated to the online support that I ONLY wanted casino games banned and never was I informed of the full consequences of that action. I am also pretty sure there is a record of the chatlog between me the Celeb online support, but would need someone else to confirm that.

What is my next move? I have a good portion of my bankroll on that site right now that I will need to pay bills with/grind poker with...

Maybe Roseeker can help you out.

Non sequitur ITT.

So what's the deal you two working together again to try to screw somebody? What's your angle this time boys? Btw I thought you were never going to post again Roseeker?

Are you ******ed? You know OP made a lot of people a lot of money from selling pieces in Macau Poker Cup, WSOP, and Aussie Millions right? You don't have to trust him, ever, and you can say he's untrustworthy, that's your opinion, but saying he's out and around costing/cheating people money is so wrong, it makes you look ridiculous.

If you want to troll him, at least say something witty.

His hendon mob database shows him being up 340k or so in live tourneys, and I think he's sold about 50% of all his action, so he's made 100-150k+ for 2+2 and people in the poker community who bought his pieces. His prop bet was worth way less than that, and yet you think his main contribution/impact on 2+2 is his prop bet. Maybe all you care about is procrastinating reading BBV threads, but for most people his skill as a player, his EV as a stakee, and his, dare I say, friendship, is worth a lot more than his mistakes in the past. I obviously am no fair judge of this, but you can tell from the fact that he's still in touch with a lot of 2+2ers, that he shared a place with a 2+2 mod, even, over wsop, often share hands and discuss strategy with other HU regs, that this is sentiment that I am not alone in.

Nobody asked you to trust him, but you're ridiculous with your comments. You clearly have no idea what you're talking about, and that's that.

PS. I've explained why I've returned, in my first thread on this account, where I donated 1k to charity handled by jalex to show that I am true to my word (that if I were to make money back I would like to give back to community/charity). If you can't be bothered to read about stuff you want to talk trash about, then don't be surprised when people don't care about your opinions.

Birds of a feather.... I am sure you know the rest

Btw you want to know why this happened? It's called karma bitch.
03-07-2012 , 05:01 PM
I'm glad you're so willing to display your lack of logical counter argument, and use your desperate appeal towards credibility attacks and personal insults to highlight the correctness of my position.

lol karma. I bet that's what he thought when he final tabled the Aussie Millions.

Have a nice day.
03-07-2012 , 05:04 PM
Also did you just imply that all the players, high stakes and HU regs, including 2+2 mods, as it happens, are "birds of a feather"? Wouldn't that make him more likely to be a reasonable and trustworthy character, associating with all these respectable characters, than the other way around?

You're good with this persuasion and logic thing aren't you? Awww that's so cute. Don't worry, you'll get it eventually.
03-07-2012 , 05:06 PM
Actually I meant that you and your little buddy are the birds of a feather because you both are scum bags.
03-07-2012 , 05:09 PM
Btw just because he ft the Aussie millions does not mean he is a trustworthy or even decient person. But for a douche like you I could see why that might be the case.
03-07-2012 , 05:59 PM
This one's called the strawman. I never once said that him doing well in poker means he's trustworthy. Good try! Sadly people who have brains don't fall for tricks like that. lol at you accusing others of being deceitful. How ironic.

The fact that he's paid up and gave large sums of money to people he's sold action to makes him more trustworthy. The fact that smart poker players with good reputations trust him makes him more trustworthy.

Does this make him necessarily trustworthy? Did I say this means you should trust him? No, nothing can ever do that, and I never claimed as such, but at the very least it makes the image you paint of him completely uninformed and stupid.

Keep trying, you might eventually get there. You might ACTUALLY be convincing for once. When everyone becomes senile, maybe.
03-07-2012 , 06:06 PM
I don't even want to defend him he's such a jackass, but your arguments and insults are so mind numbingly dumb I can't help but laugh at it. His fault for playing blackjack anyway.

Well sir, have fun, I'm done here. You're not worth my time, or anyone's time, if you keep on your stupidity. I am sure you won't take my advice or actually think about the ******ed stuff you wrote or how you completely owned yourself there. Such is life, fish will be fish.
03-07-2012 , 09:14 PM
I love how you seem to think that you are so smart Roseeker. May I need to remind you that you were also involved in the ( poorly executed) prop bet scam as well. Anyone with a bit of a brain could see what a stupid decision that was. Seems that you haven`t changed at all which is why you will eventually end up just like all the other degens. At best you will end up busto. At worst, well lets not get into that. Keep thinking that you are smarted than everyone else, it will be the best for everyone.

This is now resolved. Thanks guys.
03-09-2012 , 03:18 PM
I'm going to lock up this thread as this isn't really relevant to us and the argument that's broken out doesn't seem right.

Happy that you got your problem sorted,

Jamie
