Time for a little cleaning up for the holidays.

1) This person is more the standard petty crook. He started a $300 stake, sent our half of the profits one week, lost a little, got a small reload and decided that playing different games at different buy ins until he degened away the bankroll was his mission.

He was doing well with the degen lose it all plan until he accidentally binked $2,000 with the last $11. Since then he decided to keep our money and go back to losing it steadily.

2) The player below started a stake with us on July 18th playing $15 & $30 2-7 single draw HUSNGs. We also mixed in 50NLSD and 100NLSD into the stake as it progressed.

Got into makeup of $714 ($1000 bankroll after reloads). After not playing a single SNG for 3 weeks, he finally said that he "has lost all motivation to play because the SNGs are too hard to beat" and he ended the stake and sent what he had in his account ($286) on November 16th.

He did not feel the need to settle up on the make-up by paying back a reduced figure, even though he was the one who basically quit the stake while in make-up. Perhaps make-up was not his "thing."

3) This player below was declined a stake months ago, but he appeared again on skype begging for a small stake after having a bad run. When it was denied he decided that issuing threats, bizarre $10,000 heads up challenges (while pleading for a $200 stake), and racist language might make for a more effective means of getting money. Alas, it did not work.

He never got a stake from us, so I cannot say anything with regard to his honesty about money, but best to warn the community about his approach and general personality.

4) The last player listed below was staked on BCP to play MTTs on a $300 bankroll and decided to end stake $46 in makeup. He sent back the remaining roll and agreed to mail a check to pay off the makeup.

Needless to say, the check has not arrived and numerous email attempts to bring this to his attention have gone unanswered.

Even though it is for a very nominal amount, we have given him every opportunity to settle up or face expose in the Negative feedback thread. He has declined so here we are.

He is a huge Packers fan so I imagine he had a rough weekend as well. Then again, I am a Colts fan and this was a rare time I was not rooting for them to win...


Happy holidays everyone!

Offhand, sketchy stakers can:
-- get you to sign up new accounts throught them as an affiliate
-- hijack personal account info as part of their monitoring of your progress
-- get close and then suddenly "need a short term loan"
-- use a team viewer compromising your PC security

LTasdf http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/members/242479/ Last log in July.

PokerStars: LTasdf
FullTiltPoker: LTasdf

he plays on stars as LTasdf, copy of what I posted on a Lithuanian poker forum where he sells shares of himself.

I started staking LTasdf over the summer after he negotiated a very favorable deal for himself. He then stole a little more than $2000 dollars from us to pay for his schooling. We agreed to take him back since it was the only way we could get paid back the money he stole and gave him more money to play on. He did pay us back all but $1000 which he still owes us. During, this time he allowed someone, I assume from America to play on his account some Wcoop events, something his current backer should be aware of. He then arranged a deal for his current backer to pay us back. Personally I believe the backer gave him the $1000 to pay us and LTasdf ran off with that money and the backer doesn't know it. Multiple times he has promised to pay back and hasn't so I decided today to ask another Lithuanian we back to make me this account. Below is all of my Skype conversations with him on the subject.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1...mAiF-KMSQ/edit

Only took 4 months and 1 post on his home poker forum to get paid back, probably a lesson in there.

Anyone know if there is a Swedish poker forum owed $1500 still by Superfamous.

today i just try to swap $ (from paypal to PS or MB) on p2p transfer thread and just realized its not possible here on 2p2.. after 2 minutes one guy (2p2 sn: FictionalOuts) sent me pm and tell me: try to swap on donkdown poker forum..
i post to donkdown and after 2 minutes fatboy11 (steve garret, i know now..) pm'd me about muffin bluffin (steve garret) being a good transfer..

And I was so inattentive how I did not check it here on the 2p2forum. LOL

And sent $65 to muffin bluffin (sgarrett1975@yahoo.com) on paypal..obv never received the fund on PS....

I just want to update the informations from this scammer.....

I know its not a big sum but as i can see he works a lot.... So mods if its possible i think check the FictionalOuts sn here , its possible to similar the another steve garrett's accounts, if not im sorry, but this fast, well organized scamming more than interesting...

cheers:matt

Got another beggar: kurs23

sent in PM

He never really answered my questions about his PTP multi-account ban and carried on soliciting takes here, so I just banned him. Not wasting my time on morons.

2+2 name Kurs23
2+2 - (banned April 2013) - divinulseptini

I am not sure how often people come in here to defend themselves, but i figured i might as well make my 150th post worth it. Off of a $17 investment owed him $94 dollars and was not able to get a hold of him that day. I had 4 investors and profited over 2k that day and paid out over 1k of money. No way i would want to scam the least investor and i was in contact with deke during the period. Not sure about everyone is but whenever i have more then 500 in my account I ALWAYS withdraw i can show you history of this whenever i win a certain amount with in 48 hours i take the money off through the p2p transfer section. In fact i actually took of some of the money through one of my investors. During the period it was thanksgiving and I did not play much and could not make a deposit. I told deke i would get the money to him by Tuesday and I did. If you guys want to call me a scumbag (because d.s in pm trying to resolve the issue i guess ur no use to someone trying to defend themselves or trying to appeal removals i guess)/or weird i don't mind but i think i should be able to appeal my market place removal as i have done over 4k of transfers, payed ALL OF MY DEBTS, communicated with him during this period and even have the initial poster saying that he think the punishment was a bit drastic and he would help resolve the situation. SO just curious if with the help of the community (if i even have any ones support) can my marketplace removal be appealed? PM me if anyone has any questions.

Thanks in advance

PS No one would want to ruin there poker reputation over a $17 (turned into 90) stake.

And i greatly appreciate who ever took the time out to read this.

Mod Note: I explained to you at the time that if you felt the need to appeal then you should contact Bobo Fett via PM. I take it you have done this in the preceding 27 days?

If people feel behaviour like this (below) with someone else's money is acceptable I must be doing something very wrong. Note first excuse was bust the account, then secondly was just took money off. And was unable to return the money from his own account. That's not good enough.

This might not be as bad as people who steal money but the standard of conduct is clearly below what is expected of someone who is Marketplace Approved. So he loses his Marketplace Approval and gets to re-apply in 3 months. 0 infractions, 0 day ban for something that is at the very least incredibly stupid. It's really not harsh.

Thanks! you rock this thread.

Also, I was wondering if you have seen this thread:

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/28...mping-1143563/

I don't know if he actually has marketplace approval or not, but given multiple and extensive accusations of cheating, collusion, multi-accounting, and scamming over the years, it would probably not be a good idea to allow this person to sell action here in the future, esp big packages to something like WSOP.

I started to stake him for $4.50 reg speeds on stars, he started ok, then went on to play MTTs outside of the agreed stake, i then proceded to confront him when he said reg speeds weren't for him. He then said he woul return the remaining BR of $53 on 23/12/11 I didn't recieve it and he choses to ignore my messages.

Staked Smeureanu Andrei aka pokerm3 a long time ago. Also loaned him $100 for his rent. He lost some money, quit, and never responded when I asked him for the $100

Update on this:

We have reached an agreement that he will pay a portion of his split of the profits after he gets a new backer to pay an agreed upon amount, so the issue with Luke has been resolved and we wish him the best of luck in the future.

I will also be posting these details in his staking thread.

rdmr has paid about 430~ in rakeback to me

Still would not stake again, and advise others not to stake also

Can't trust a horse who repeatedly breaks his limits

^very kind of you

i would advice horses to not play under you as well.
have a nice new year tho

2+2 name: BennyBoy2606 http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/members/245602/

Real Name: Ben Irving

Problems with outstanding debts, lying to me repeatedly and just generally being untrustworthy.

This was partly Luke's fault, as he could not get hold of him on Skype but at no point actually tried sending a PM to him here, which would have made sense. The debt has now been paid after a good deal of badgering on my part.

He also owes Brad2002TJ (previous backer for mtts) $200. He was staked by him until Black Friday and when I asked Brad why he was still owed the $$$ now he said that Ben 'disappeared' for many months. I am still confident Ben will pay back this debt, and he is aiming to have at least part of it paid around the 10th of this month.

Regardless, Ben's conduct when I approached him was completely disgusting and I feel I need to point that out to any potential future stakers how horrible his attitude is.

These two PMs below are in reply to me asking him if he owed the money.

Note he says 'He did not communicate to me that we were entering a staking agreement. If he can provide proof that he did' This was despite Ben sending Luke a staking pm with all the details, then receiving the money from Luke and talking with him on Skype and playing (some of) the STTS that were agreed to under the staking conditions. To claim that he was not aware that they were in a stake is simply a huge huge lie and a disgusting attempt to avoid responsibility for his actions. The slander thing comes from me threatening to post which Uni he goes to here in the Negative Feedback thread and to contact them about him, which non-shockingly helped him to decide it was a stake and he would pay back soon. Since we're both in the UK I did invite him to take any legal action he felt necessary against me.

At this point I called him a massive scum-bag, because he's a massive scum-bag, and to prove it he then said this when I asked why he had not repaid the money on the date we agreed:

So he threatens to not give the money back because I called him a scumbag and hurt his feelings, even though it looks like I am right. It's certainly scummy to threaten to with-hold someone's money because of words spoken by a third party.

Then there's this:

Really? I did check. These look really really bad and dishonest.

Ben is not banned, and once he has paid back Brad he will be allowed to use the Marketplace again. I feel that once you read the above and see the way he has conducted himself he may have drastically reduced his staking chances in the future though.

Apart from what I highlighted, the above is pretty accurate.

I'll be checking for this scammer on PTP also. Thank you.

Unknown original stakee (Asyllum) staked $30 and lied about about running BR, had $1.20 and was told $120. So, I was under the impression he was doing well and some trust was being built. He then recommended two friends, and with the trust built with Asyllum, I gave two $50 stakes to Perilous and Bkftw.

2+2 Mpettit, Carbon 1hate3d0nk5 http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/members/110862/

Dont stake 1hate3d0nk5 on carbon, I bought 5% percent on carbon.

I normally wouldnt do this thread but it has been 3 weeks now and no word from this guy, sent him emails about the stake or percentage that was sent to him and no response..now as of today he remove me from his friend list..i understand he had family issues 3 weeks ago but he could have atleast kept me inform, its only 15 bucks but the lack of communication and not receiving any responses from my emails lead me to do this..hopefully this guy will respond to me and others who are looking for their percentage in the stake back since he never played the games that the stake was sent for..

Mod Note: PM sent to Mpettit.

Confirmed. Everything is settled and we wish Luke the best of luck in the future.

He did the same thing to me during the same time as tariq06 except i had a slightly higher percent on carbon..Then this morning while playing on carbon he deletes me from friends list on there. Its been about 3 weeks like taroq06 states and haven't heard anything back from him through emails as well.

I contacted him today (Mpettit) and he ignored me after reading my PM and has logged in twice since then, so banned.
