Is this the site everyone laughed about before they even opened because it was so obvious it would fail horribly?

Yes but it's likely only 2+2ers (who checked up T6) and people who did their research would find out about this and I'm sure among them there would be some forgiving people that have may given them a chance anyhow.

All this bollocks really affects everyone though including people that have never played at T6. Think of all the innocent, have-a-go casuals (i.e fish) who decided to try T6 who have now been screwed and will now never try online poker again because it seems like it's one great big scam?

You might argue that people who don't do their research are dumb but when I started internet poker I was naive enough to think 'well they got adverts on tv and have loads of players, how can anything possibly be shady?'. (Then I lost with QQ against 3,6 in a $4 pot and thought 'this obv rigged..' but that's a different matter).
Er getting back to my point people that don't do their research on the site beforehand might be foolish but it's still in everyones interest to have these players protected. Afterall we want to play these people at the poker table, not have them scammed out of everything by the site and it's scum owners and have them never deposit again.

Wow, $4 pot??!?!?!? I hear they juice the cards bad at all poker rooms at limits that high.

Yes this is very true I lost tons of money through MGS and battlefield poker. I always figured my money was safe cause MGS is a big casino. There wern't any warnign signs really as nothing was posted but....

Even if there are warning signs most players who don;t frequent this board wouldn;t know what to look for anyways. I mean what does do your research mean? Spend hours googling? Looking for what exactly? Talking to poker room support wont give you real answers.

Most people simply wouldn;t know where to begin searching or what information would be important, and unless you hang out on poker forums its unlikely you would know anything about warning signs.

Yeh the rake was pretty bad on party back then.
I should have twigged that a $4 pot wasn't standard for a $10/$20 game.

With Best Regards : Nasko

yep. it 'd be great if we got our money somehow back. i checked all the forums about t6poker but still no ideas. 'T6poker.com is fully licensed and regulated by the relevant laws of Costa Rica under Municipalidad De Moravia for the purposes of operating an Interactive Gambling Site under the name T6poker.com.' > http://municipalidad.moravia.or.cr/ i wrote them three or four letters about tsix players' problems but they dont answear.. i looked for gaming comissions for ideas and asked Kahnawake Gaming Commission what can players like us do in this situation but they said that's not their business. i wrote in this topic but i got the answear i'm a fish cause i used to played there. i'm out of ideas. just waiting...

Of course, nobody deserves to have their money stolen like this.

But hey, the poker community as a whole and the 2+2 community in special has warned from minute one about all the alarm bells surrounding T6poker.

That said, I hope you get paid.

As far as I know, Costa Rica does not give out licenses to gambling sites. Pretty much anybody can start a gambling site there. This ugly Monrovia seal on the T6poker website seems like some fake way of trying to earn from their clientele.

The Kahnawake Gaming Commission can hardly be called a gaming commission, as proven by the way they are set up, and by previous experience, including the Absolute and Ultimate Bet cheating scandals. I'm surprised you even got an answer from them.

I think pretty much the only thing you can do is hope for the best and consider this a lesson for the future. Good luck!

about this site http://municipalidad.moravia.or.cr is there english version because i can`t find it ?

any news about t6poker? the site is closed for a month now.. Nasco, do u have any ideas?

i got many ideas , type me your msn or other messenger in private messege and i will contact you

anyone who wants to talk about this , send me messege

i had 1.7K E there too. if anyone know what to do.. tell me please

it's amazing to read some of the comments about T6 from people who should know how to read a BLUFF. T6 is not coming back. EVER. It was a scam from the start. If you couldn't tell by the amount of money being given away month after month in freerolls or by the huge overlays in their cash tournaments, then you should have sussed it out when people started complaining in the chat boxes about slow withdrawals, or when they suddenly cut all the guarantees in half, or when even the 1e tournaments couldn't get 10 players. But i played there on the last day they were up and mentioned in the chat box that the end was near....and people were like "WHAT???" So funny...

I had about 300e in my account....but I never deposited a single euro. It was all funny money from freerolling. I'm sure half the money on there was deposited in accounts by T6 from freerolls and never really existed. So before any more whiners come on here posting how much they "lost", please note that you only lost what you deposited, not all the play money you won on the site after that.

if u start playing in a pokerroom depo 50$ and u play hundreds of hours and win about 1K$ and this pokerroom closes the doors and goes away u just say: well, it's okey? it was just fun? i lost 50$ and that's all? no. u spent weeks or months and worked hard for that money. so that money is yours. and if u spend hours to win some freeroll dollars that dollars are yours.
i stated to play at T6 '08 february and i had no problems with depo or withdraw. i read just nice things about this site and the client was cool, fast and clean. who thinks that its a big-big scam if players like Tony G are in the team? i did not. i just stopped playing there in May cause i needed the money. my euros were in my MB account in 3days. I went back there in August. My depo was about 150euros but i won 1700-1800. And now this is the situation. I can't think about that money like it was just for fun. if it was just play money. i worked for it hard. and im a fish cause of that.

Sorry, I didn't realize that playing poker was your work. To me, it sounds like you came out 800e ahead in the end and had hundreds of hours of entertainment. But if that's your job and you didn't get your pay, i truly do feel sorry for you.

Of course it's not right for any gaming business to promise you money and disappear. But poker players have to realize this risk and evaluate the odds. Any rational evaluation of T6 should have brought you to the conclusion that it had an unsustainable business plan and shady ownership (that was all over the forums before you even started playing there) Bottom line: a higher risk of losing your money.

The internet gaming sites operate on the very edge of regulation. If they go bust, who do you go after, and in what country? I wish you all the best of luck in getting your money, but class action lawsuits take years to resolve and in the end you still don't get all you are owed. Best to just take the lesson and move on.

POKER SITES ARE NOT BANKS

Just returned from holiday to find that T6 have closed. Fortunately I had withdrawn all my winnings before going on holiday. This was not because I thought anything was imminent but simply that I had learned my lesson from the debacle last year when players funds in Battlefield and 27 other Microgaming skins got frozen when their payment processor Tusk went bust.

We are still waiting for the liquidator to pay out anything and shamefully, Microgaming have done absolutely nothing to help the players out.

I am really sorry if players have lost a lot of money in T6- I know how you feel. But like me, please learn something from it. As Russ Boyd, former president of Pokerspot, said in 2003:

"Players should not treat these sites as banks. I would suggest that that online players not leave their bankroll in them. Keep your bankroll in a bank and make a new deposit every time you buy into a table. Then cash out everything you have in your account regularly...as often as the casino will let you. We weren't the first and we won't be the last (to have gone down)."

any infos about this site?

http://www.scanbingo.com/

almost sounds like scambingo..

I'm amazed that people didn't realize it'd likely end up as a scam from the beginning soley by the fact that they tried to pull in tons of small investors MLM / ponzi scheme style on a couple of forums either directly or by offering moderators and well known posters bogus management positions.

i wasnt counting my profits, I deposited 1.7k.

Just report to your local police within efficient time for such cases(6 nounths from your deposit),your money will be back or they will be put in jail. good luck!
