Honestly yes, could have been handled better... but you have no idea how many hours I was on the phone with Paypal who would not help me, and how many back and forth emails with global. I had over 100k trapped between the two, had no ability to play poker anymore and keep in mind this was over an extended period of time. I never thought theyd perma ban me once this was settled, I still really have no idea why...

Between all the trash talking, multi-accounting/vpns, money laundering it is pretty safe to assume they didn't want to deal with your crap. I don't blame them. You seem to be much more of a liability than an asset.

Don't blame the messenger - I am just telling you what you cannot see in yourself. Also, not saying I have never caused drama but I certainly would never attempt many of the things you have done, especially with so much money on the line.

I didn't launder money and I didn't multi account/use a vpn on their site, so what the hell are you talking about idiot?

*Between the accusations of money laundering, multi-accounting/vpn'ing on other sites which you have admitted to, and trash-talking it is pretty obvious that any poker site would find you more of a liability than an asset.

Again - don't blame the messenger. I am just telling you how you look from the outside.

This all comes with the territory of being the biggest winner. Get called a bot/cheat/super user everyday.


Also I was paying so much rake, fact is they banned me for winning too fast, why you think they are mum on it? I was one of the ONLY regs that would play heads up and start games no matter what.

I didn't call you a bot, cheater, or superuser. Though I do believe you are a cheater having admitted multi-accounting on other sites. How do they say it? "Once a cheater, always a cheater." But you could get together with my whore ex-gf to argue this quote.

You aren't getting it. You are coming off like think you are above it all and you can do what you want because you have won some money. But you winning money has nothing to do with them. They aren't going to ban players for winning too fast. They are going to ban players who are a liability. How would you winning too fast cause them to think you are a liability?

One theory I have, and it is just a theory, is that they could have banned you because you were creating issues with PayPal about your 100k that was lost and they know that after X amount of complaints with PayPal ANY company will not be allowed to use PayPal. This is PayPals rules. Again though, that would mean you are a liability to them.

I would personally guess that changing your tone and being apologetic would be the best in your case. I was once banned from a casino for some stuff but took a year away and emailed them a year later apologizing and asking for the lifetime ban to be lifted. We came to the agreement that I would be allowed back in the card room but not allowed to play any pit games (blackjack, pai gow, baccarat, ultimate, spanish, etc). Now I love to go to that casino and play poker and eat and drink booze but I know not to play pit games. Apologies work mate - as long as they are sincere.

Bot/Cheater/Superuser/Money launderer are things I've been called by several players on this forum whenever I present an issue on here, they recognize my name as one of the biggest winners and get salty and spew their hate, you don't have to scroll up far to read them "hearing" about things they could have never heard of as they never occurred. Having to answer to these accusations shouldn't make me a liability, the winningest player will always have this happening to them. Bringing that up was never meant as a brag, I don't think it makes me better in regards to following rules I was giving a reason as to why people are even speculating I broke rules in the first place.

What exactly do you think I should be apologizing for? Paypal has notoriously bad customer service; it also just so happens they are no longer serviced by paypal, which is why I've waited till now to really press them to unban me and/or give me a reason, all to which they have been very short (They have 100% read this thread yet have not even posted).

Honestly this thread is frustrating, why is an answer so difficult? Now imagine that frustration going on for over 6 months with 100k in indefinite limbo.(Don't get me wrong they made this right and I applaud them for that)

What you are saying about not banning high winning players is historically untrue of their competition; there have been plenty of sites that have banned/altered the experience of winning players.

I also created this thread to highlight what I believe are parallels in my banning and the removal of 10/20. I agree they viewed me as a liability, was it my winning, complaints from others, complications with paypal? We don't really know, same way we don't really know about why they removed 10/20. What we do know is that a site I once loved playing on and would love to be able to play on again has decided the most drastic of resolutions serve as the easiest. I'd just like them to truly clarify their position... after all this is a site comprised of a range of aspiring winning players to serious pros. They advertise here and seem to be pretty involved in the community. Basically comes down to communication to me which is the only real complaint I've ever had in regards to global.

Honestly, you can say what you want about me, but are they handling this well? Are they handling the issues that were present in their 10/20 game well? Seems like they are getting quite a bit of backlash on this site on the 10/20 side of things at least.

You are not being exactly honest either:

"Between all the trash talking, multi-accounting/vpns, money laundering it is pretty safe to assume they didn't want to deal with your crap. I don't blame them. You seem to be much more of a liability than an asset"

Implies that global would be aware of me multiaccounting/vpning/money laundering which implies that it happened on their site. So you did call me a cheat and implied it was a fault of my action that broke a critical part of TOS. But did you actually believe this or were you just starting ****? Because surely if they believed I did this they would simply have said it when they banned me! Perhaps even confiscated my funds. You then backpedaled and said perhaps if I was a bit cheerier when dealing with people like you that they'd consider unbanning me. Now look, this thread is 50% fluff from "random" people claiming to "know" I've broken a rule and deserve to be banned and me defending myself; then you wonder why I'm so aggressive towards the people saying it? Lmao I've seen your other posts and refuse to believe you are this stupid, you seem shilly/**** starter tbh.

They seem to be handling it absolutely fine/standard from a poker operators end. Make controversial change and move on without arguing it with regs. They don't give a **** what you think so why would they bother arguing about it in the other thread? What backlash do you think they will suffer? a few mean words from players that aren't going anywhere.

As for the rest of this particular thread

Probably because you've admitted to being caught to multiaccounting/getting banned on another site? I don't know why you're looking for sympathy here? No one cares why global banned you, It's not as if they've banned any other big winners and until they do no one is going to assume that is the sole reason for their dislike of you.

Why not just go to iggy? Its not like there is no other place to play besides global.

You are the type to take it in the ass and not complain, lmao. Our voice+feet is all we have to offer, and it MIGHT work. Plenty of poker sites have changed policy before due people speaking up.

ZZZzzz. More shill. I've never been banned from another site, FTP knew I was multi accounting(like most of their red pros were) and would even sometimes consolidate the funds of mine, lol. Why would people not care that global is banning people without reason? Guess you don't care till it happens to you.

.

Why is it just a bunch of global only low post shills post in this thread trying to discredit me? You are trying apply occams razor? Occams razor would suggest they would say why publicly like they do for everyone else.

"Name one time a policy was changed back to what it was originally and remained that way."

Heard they took away 5/10 plo for a day and brought it back...

This is very disheartening because I never multi-accounted on Stars or Tilt and there seems to be a consensus among groups of regs that it is ok. Not accusing you of doing it on global just a general statement. Anyone ever think about the morals of it at all and that it hurts players who follow the rules? Even Durr compared it to a speeding ticket. I mean WTF is this?

People are always looking for that little bit of extra edge. Hypothetically if I said you could make double what you currently make by multi-accounting, with little to no chance of repercussion, it would lead to plenty of people willing to do it. When rules aren't properly enforced some people will do whatever they can get away with to remain as competitive as possible. It obviously doesn't make it right, but it's just how some people operate.

Barry Bonds didn't need to take steroids to be a great baseball player, but do you think he's winning the homerun title against the guys that are using them if he didn't take them? Now him and the rest of the cheaters are properly shunned and stigmatized when it comes to baseball accomplishments. Unfortunately this doesn't take away the wealth they acquired by cheating, but it does leave a permanent asterisk on their legacy and hurts some of their future earning potential.

I never heard that Bovada banned big winners, but I have heard that banning winners is a common practice on Carbon.

Like any business, they have the right to refuse service. There's likely a couple reasons you haven't been answered in this thread:

1) It's common to not discuss private account details publicly
2) They simply don't have an obligation to

They could say "we've decided to part ways and wish you the best of luck elsewhere", but what purpose would that serve? You'd simply go on speculating that because you're Gods gift to poker they can't allow you to keep winning so much.

I was here following along through the whole money frozen in limbo/paypal debacle, and like everyone else was outraged your funds were tied up for so long without a speedy resolution and what appeared to be poor communication from Global's support throughout. And am very glad it did eventually get sorted and you got paid. This crusade to demand an explanation however as to why your account is closed now, I think isn't likely to achieve any positive result for you.

Well this is more of a petition for an unban, as I did nothing wrong . I think the real reason is I pissed some of the higher up guys at the company when I was complaining about my money that they 100% made right. Let me make global poker great again

Unban me so I can go back to playing 10 hours a day starting a game at every stake I wanna help make global great again in this trying time of you guys deleting 10/20.

I'll do it on twitch stream as well. Every hour of play.


I'll also never talk bad in the chat again

What are you talking about? Name any site that publicly states why another player has been banned? I think you mean privately, but it's hard to tell, even then most sites specifically don't go in to detail.

Why do you need to be unbanned? You have literal previous experience of multi accounting.

I multi accounted on ftp to play heads up back in the day, as were most of the red pros. FTP knew I was multi accounting, zzzz. Heads up was absurd back then, you couldn't get action because people would break TOS and look up your name in an illegal database and not give you action if they couldn't exploit you. The multiaccounting "rule" that they didn't enforce was a joke, there was no one player to a hand rule so you could literally send money to somebody else, give them a .05% freeroll, have them click the buttons and you were not technically multi accounting, that is what a ton of people did. I just happened to be one of the few pros who wouldn't bs on these forums as I was trying to lobby for a change for the good of the game/economy(which also aligned to me wanting to make more money, obv). I was one of the first anti bot/anti hud people, I told them allowing no screenname changes/multi accounting and not policing these sites like the old pokertableratings it was compounding these issues and killing the poker economy fast. I was not trying to "trick" people I previously played into not having reads. I encouraged everyone to multi account on ftp as they literally WERE NOT POLICING IT and most other top pros were "Staking" others and essentially doing the same thing anyways! By the way the only reason people knew I multiaccounted is because I came on here and admitted it, publicly, tied to my real name, to try and help people/show the flaws in the current system. I was never "Exposed", Or banned, or penalized. FTP DIDNT CARE. It's not like I was multi accounting tournaments like zee (cuk) Justin that is praised everywhere, why are you not trying to get him banned from everything?

Then yeah, I vpned to play on stars, not for an edge but to be able to play from the states.

There's no reason to multi account global, there is no heads up/databases and huds are not allowed. I also just said I'd stream every hour of play.

Yes there is a reason to unban me, I paid a ton of rake, will continue to pay a ton of rake and I'll twitch bringing players to the game! People will also learn from me and their edges will increase/lose rate decrease, eventually this means global's effective rake will be even higher!


Global help me help you help me help you.

Don't know ya, don't need to know ya, only want the best for ya, but the amount of self worth you give yourself is incredible. Please keep up the posts because they're truly something to read over. Well done sir.

Actually, BeHumble! seems to be a sharp guy we can learn alot from. I vote to unban BeHumble!

Never said he wasn't sharp, I don't care either way if the ban is lifted. I'm businessman first, rec player 2nd (prefer live, we play a real fun 2/4 O8 kill game and a much more serious 5/10 mix) so we'll never cross paths on the virtual felt. I'm enjoying his banter and I hope it continues, even if the ban is lifted.

Correct on both accounts.

I know players who have withdrawn 7 figures from Bovada in poker earnings. They still grind to this day.

I am also aware of hundreds of players who have been kicked off of Carbon for winning anywhere from 7 figures+ to a measly thousand bucks of chump change. Carbon Poker became a garbage site when Jazette Enterprises wrestled full control away from the Australian contingent of ownership.
