Lock stone walls withdrawals but insists all is well (CalvinAyre article) - Page 4 - Poker News

I remember calling out Rizen as a sellout scumbag who has/will lose any credibility and respect from the community for the pos known as Lock Poker beginning as early as late 2011.

2p2 is just as bad as any of these lock "pros". Sure I didn't put money on the site partly by luck early after bf and later because of the shadiness I saw on the forums. I feel bad for anyone that isn't an ardent 2p2 reader clicking a lock ad and losing money.

Mostly at live events when we were discussing the legitimacy of Lock, not 2p2.

Yeah you can play all you want just can't cash out no reason to panic as shane says.

2 plus 2 should disallow Lock from being able to advertise and possibly have more people fall into this obvious Ponzi scheme. It would be ridiculous stupid for anyone to deposit with all the negative threads about lock on 2 plus 2 alone but by allowing lock to advertise 2 plus 2 is giving lock legitimacy imo.

2+2 has refused advertising in the past, and has also cancelled ongoing campaigns and refunded money when they weren't comfortable with things they discovered after a campaign had started. So no, it isn't only about the money.

shane was caught buying lock funds at a discount anonymously (for market research lol) more than a year ago. now they do everything to further devalue lock$. nice business model.

not allowing traded funds to be cashed out is stealing, it's that simple.

i agree the 2+2 ads better be stopped.

Guy seems like a right piece of scum. Advertising help for depositing and ignoring every comment RE cashouts.

Pretty sure you're confusing Shane with RPMSeth, who was caught offering to buy funds.

Love how we tweets picks of Howard Lederer in Bobby's Room complaining about FTP scam and he shills for dead broke Lock.

Again, I haven't followed closely. Are there sponsored pros who have been speaking up about this and making public comments?

This is of course a ridiculous policy to put in place retroactively, or at all for that matter. The most I could see is a play-through requirement. Anything else is BS.

How can you chip dump if you can't withdraw on Lock and can't play any other skins because of Fair-play? Already been taken care of.
