Anyway, thanks again, would be nice to say whatever else you know, really like to see people save their money and not give it to the scum who run these rigged sites.
Just so we're clear, you are going to commend any post that agrees with your point of view however ******ed they may be and dismiss any post which disagrees with your point of view hoever logical it is?

You really are absolutely brain dead.

Or maybe this is more evidence that rigtards are unable to seperate bad luck, bad play and bad results so when they do better at a site with weaker players they attribute it to a lack of rigging.

Well, assuming someone (Josem) is not being serious just because he's talking to an idiot (TT5) seems to be belittling his standing as a serious poster.

However, if you say you didn't intend it to be belittling I'll withdraw the accusation.
No I didn't mean to be belittling, the josem TT5 banter is pure gold I just wanted to show my appreciation with a little pun of my own. I enjoy this thread now that I don't take it seriously.

Wait, you mean when everyone makes jokes in this thread about how much they get paid for each post, you actually believe them? LOL.

In before they post that they really do get paid.

I worked out that iPoker had changed the set-up and were only increasing the Jackpot by $5,000 a week. I went to the websites of 2 major UK bookies who operate on iPoker and they both still claimed this Jackpot was going up by $10,000 a week. I spoke to customer service staff who told me the same. This was months after the change had been made.
And yet I imagine you still play at iPoker, despite one more complaint to add to the laundry list you already had.

1) In even closer before they post that they really do get paid.

2) We really do get paid.

3) In after they post that they really do get paid.



I think that covers all the bases.

That's what's so weird about Fated To Pretend. He obviously lives somewhere where he can play on any site he wants, yet he stays on iPoker in spite of not trusting their fairness.

At least banonlinepoker continuing to play O8 on FTP makes sense since he only has 2 real options to play on.

And please, hurry.

The stress of not knowing whether our employers are corrupt and that we will thus, as honourable people, feel obliged to resign out posts and find other ways to feed and clothe our children is becoming wearing.

Damn!

I'm much happier playing against players who like to spend their time marveling that some p=0.01 event has come up for the third time in the last, what, 300 hands and composing their next missive to 2+2.

Much harder to take money from people who study poker theory.

Good God you're an idiot.

Clue: Repeating the same old lies over and over again does not make them true. It just confirms you as an incorrigible liar.

Is quite often sneeking a peek at this thread some kind of a sick compulsion... probably. I confess, I have a problem. That said... RIGGED!!! Blatantly so!!! I unregistered from an $11 tourney, entry gained via 70 fpp sat, and I don't see a refund in my account to the tune of 11 juicy ones and fear I was merely given back a paltry 70 fpp? Is it possible?
