After reading up on some peoples threads, starting to see that Global Poker is very strict on policy. Dealing with an experience currently that I had no idea was against the card room rules.

Has anyone received a "warning" on first offense issues? I'm hoping to get my account back in action and not get shut down.

Look forward to seeing the replies.

it depends on what the offense is. You were intentionally vague. What was the offense you didn't know you were breaching and what was GP's response when they discovered it?

"Transferring chips" or GP refers to as "chip-dumping".

No others players nor GP were negatively affected.

GP required account info to be verified, which has been done. It is currently under further investigation.

I have decent sweeps cash on GP that would obviously prefer not to forfeit...

2.1.10. In respect of any game of poker, you shall not intentionally lose your chips on purpose to benefit another player’s chip stack, often referred to as ‘chip dumping’.

The TOS seems to include all possible chip dumping, including a "transfer" of chips to another account heads up. I guess they will weigh the gravity of what you did and act accordingly. What I mean is if you dumped $10 to your friend it's not as egregious as if you dumped 1K to someone. Anyway, good luck, if this is an innocent misunderstanding then I think (hope) they will address it fairly.

Time will tell. Given the details surrounding the event, they will clearly see it wasn't an angle to manipulate the game and negatively affect other players etc. I will certainly keep checking emails... maybe this can get wrapped up quickly.

Chip dumping should be instaban every time. It's literally the only way you steal chips after you hack someones account.

@BGnight... perhaps this is reasoning for investigation, but certainly not the case here. All the SC$ was either earned, or in most cases purchased lol.

BNight is right though, that is the reason this sort of thing is a violation of the TOS on every site. It's definitely the reason for the investigation, and why the first step was account verification. It's taken very seriously.

If in the end you dropped your friend $10 to play with (for example), I expect they will leave you with a warning to not do this again or risk account closure. If they find shenanigans, well, good on them for doing a good job.

No offense btw, obviously we don't know you or any details about the situation... just understand when someone is doing wrong with malicious intent and gets caught, it's not uncommon for a new 2+2 account to show up here feigning innocence and ignorance to try and get some leg up with the site. So these types of posts from new accounts will be met with a matter of skepticism.

Again though, totally irrelevant. If you're a malicious wrong doer, starting this thread won't get any leg up for you with the site's security team. And if it's truly an innocent misunderstanding, just be patient, it will get resolved.

Sounds like there were multiple accounts involved.
I have a hard time believing you didn't know this violated T&C.

Care to explain why you were doing this?

you didnt know chip dumping was against the rules???

its literally against the rules in every site out there. its one of the biggest red flags for collusion, and is also a means of money laundering. obviously youre probably not laundering money if your dumping small amounts, but its against the rules regardless. Sites dont want any risk in getting caught up in a FBI money laundering investigation

its always a good idea to read the rules for any room you play in.

No offense taken. I'm definitely new to 2+2. As you can see my username is same as GP.
Just started researching the threads and have seen a couple closed threads where there was malice.

After resolved, can post the details, if not to just set the precedent of how policy was enforced / understanding of situation by GP.

Eight days since account being frozen. Only what seem to be automated replies when I ask for updates on the review/ investigation in the zendesk or via email.

Can anyone instruct how to contact Kimbr on here?

Not to whine but collectively GP players pay a lot of rake to the platform, 5/10 PLO reg I certainly know I do. I would hope for a little courtesy in maybe an every couple day update on what is a very real matter on my account.

Okay so you're a 5/10 PLO player and didn't know chip dumping was TOS...? It really doesnt matter if its $5,000 or $1, chip dumping is a huge bannable offense regardless of the amount and would most likely never give a warning for this behavior. The automated replies pretty much tells you they are done with the matter. Just learn from it and move on

i believe he said a friend of his plays 5/10, not sure why it matters but im sure glad its a part of this lovely thread
