Alex Cimpan (masterm1nd2) outright stole 22,000 US Dollars of backer's money
On December 24 2015, we signed a contract with and invested in, coached, trained, and gave money to Alex Cimpan also known by the nickname curkein or by his full name Alexandru Cosmin Cimpan, age 25 from Buzau, Romania to play on a staking deal for us on the online poker rooms Pokerstars as masterm1nd2, 888 Poker as swimmingeyes, America's Cardroom as candyflipping, and iPoker as dontcallmejones
He had a rough first year in 2016 but, with some study on his part and some coaching from us, things turned around and starting in January 2017, he began winning and by the end of June 2017 he had made close to 45,000USD profit which we split. He then went on a large downswing of 19,000USD from June to October 2017 which we obviously covered the cost of. However on October 9th 2017, he had a big win of 15,611 US Dollars in the Pokerstars Bounty Builder $215 Tournament. His debt to us at that time was 29,031.19 USD because we had sent him a 10k bankroll a few days prior to help with reloading our other players since he was a silver VIP on skrill and paid no fees.
Before he disappeared, right after he won the tournament, he showed us screenshots of all his cashiers which totaled 22,000USD hoping that he was in profit. However, all of the approximately 22,000 USD in his accounts was ours because it was money that he had lost of ours over the prior months. We believe the fact that he had no profit for himself after winning 22,000USD is likely why he decided to steal and destroy his reputation. In the past, when he had won up to 20,000 USD at once, he didn't need to steal because he was not in debt and was able to keep 50% of the profits
We know that Alex Cimpan likely used some of this money to pay for his marijuana and cigarette habits, but we're unsure what else he plans to use it for besides living more comfortably without having to work. We do know that 22,000USD is a lot of money in any country but in Romania it is especially a lot of money as it can be the equivalent to 3.5 years of a good salary which is likely why he resorted to such criminal measures. He is clearly not trustworthy so we advise you to be careful if he is your friend and if you're considering hiring him, we would urge you to think twice. We warned him we would build a website after he disappeared, but he clearly decided that having 22,000USD was worth more than his reputation in the poker community, on the internet, and with his friends. We hope that all future backers, employers, and friends are aware of his deceitful nature and inclination to steal before they become more involved with him.
We have noticed he is back to playing poker on Pokerstars on masterm1nd2. Backers Beware
