But not surprised that u dont dont get it lol.
Any of the posted BTC addresses itt you think led right back to the rogue "agent" villain ?

A little blockchain analysis of the various posted addresses might go a bit down the rabbit hole, if anyone cared

GG can be a pain in the butt. I love it and I hate it.
It usually all works out eventually.

Ways of communicating with GG are Facebook, GG Reddit hub, Discord etc, email. with much publicity like you had by making threads online they react faster and better. Id go probably go for Fb or discord.

Doomswitch can mean just basic variance. Or that some people are colluding against you, with AI or without, some opponents might use RTA= real time assistance (programs)
, or opponents are just real pros. At your stakes there are pros who might have an edge on you. Look for other games. Always try something simple first, if that doesn't work try something more complicated. But have fun while doing it.

You could move down in stakes, hit the panic button so you're self excluded for 24h. The last thing you want to do is play stuck and tilted. Just wait until variance hits you again. Then move up again. Do it slowly and patiently it will happen but only if you use bankroll management. Go with the flow not against it, then cards will hit you. Most important is that you enjoy and stay rested.

Other option: withdraw and go to Stars or other platform that's available to you.

enjoy and gl!

edit:

'doomswitch' can last very long, so be careful! no point in playing too long then. live to play another day when things turn around.

It makes no sense.
For a business it probably makes sense to them.
They like to make deposits easy and cash outs hard sometimes,
in other words keep money in so they earn more rake.

If they banned players for that they would not last long. a legitimate business let's you do whatever you want with your money, even if it looks stupid.

Here you just don't know anything, you just assume. He could have deposited 200k drove it up to 500k in one day and cashed out half. In out, in out, that's how we like it.

When I first started I had hundreds of transactions a day. I still do that. Must look I'm crazy, but what do I care? They can't ban you for that it's your money and your right. And I make them a ton of rake. It's all automated anyways. Nobody makes extrashifts for this.

Now get back to the nut hugging, you

When it comes to poker sites, this is completely false. There are a number of good reasons a site might not let you withdraw money hours after depositing it, and I expect the majority of sites would have an issue with this.

Of course they can. It's their business and it's their right.

Seems like a pretty easy scam for the agents under the master agents to just work their way up , flip 500k leaving the master agents to pay the money so save their dealings directly with GG.

There are cases that I know of where the master agent can’t afford to pay back the user and GG can’t do anything about it and the case is lost, so what will prevent this in the future?
These questions are definitely my biggest takeway from this thread, especially having arrived to it so late (and after the OP got his situation resolved).

Of course they can. It's their business and it's their right.
Thanks bobo, and sorry for the mix up guys.

Yes, on a fresh account it's different.

Once it is fully legitimized the time between deposits and cash out shouldn't matter. Just like in a casino. You come and go there with your money at anytime or take it off the table. Of course I was exaggerating there a bit with the frequency.

Can't say i'm surprised, you never sent me any bitcoin after I was nice to you & posted my wallet address earlier in the thread. Now you're reaping what you've sewn. Easier for camel to get through the eye of a needle than a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven ect ect..

1. You weren't nice to him. You just weren't a prick (yet).
2. You failed to follow the simple instructions to quote your concerned post (you didn't make one).
3. He said he'll pay out at the end of the month if he runs good.

You're certainly not getting a penny now! Hope that clears it up. Now go be jealous somewhere else

What happened to that dude DGAFs thread? Didn’t he define doom switch as “the abyss”?

There is one extremely simple, foolproof way to stop this from happening to anyone, which doesn't require GG to do a single thing and which anyone with even the slightest bit of common sense does already

Spoiler:
don't use agents lol

Rake is earned by providing a service. It is not earned on holding a deposit.

You maybe are confused about the basic business and revenue model of a poker business ?

Not letting you withdraw your money is the online equivalent to a physical casino telling you the private jet they promised is being repaired so they will give you a comped room and food while you wait. Gamblers gamble and if you or your money is stuck you gamble there and they know it.

I disagree, based on 22+ years around the online gambling industry and 30+ years around the B&M casino industry in Las Vegas and other places.

(To be clear I've never had any affiliation with GG.)

What you describe is a bad strategy, especially online for an operator.

An operator can shear a sheep many times, but can only kill it once.

As for "agents", they present a different issue. The only foolproof defense against dishonest agents is to deal DIRECTLY with the poker operator.

The role of agents in the US gambling markets, including sports betting, is a bit different. I once handled a matter for a sportsbook that did NOT accept US play, period. Nevertheless, some guy used an "agent" to place bets for him, which the "agent", i.e. really a bookie, booked himself. It is a profitable scam for some street guy to "accept" a bet under the guise of a brand name sportsbook, with no connection whatsoever to the sportsbook brand. Happens every year, pretend "agents"/fakes pick some well known brands purport to represent.

See, also, https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/20/b...stigation.html

State regulation of sports-betting, licensed companies however is often no match for operators who are just too damn greedy. CF. the reported deal between Pointsbet and colleges to pay a commission for students who download the app using a promo code ....(In a deal between the betting company PointsBet and the University of Colorado Boulder, for example, each time someone downloads the PointsBet app and uses a special promotional code, the university pockets a $30 fee.}

Since physical casinos sometimes actually do what I describe I will take their actions over your expertise. I'm not suggesting never letting the customer withdraw but if you can postpone it 24-48 hours you aren't killing the sheep you just are sheering it longer.
