Your thought on Mr. Feft, former FTP employee - Poker News

It doesn't seem very well written. More like a rehashed collage of rumors and stories that have already been reported.

- Was there an actual orgy after the christmas party?

- If I were running a pokersite, paradoxically, I wouldn't be tolerating a gambling culture in the confines.

- Overall, another piece that gives the impression that this wasn't professionally run.

The staff Xmas parties were off the chain! Free booze all day and night, and usually a good old orgy after.

They gambled on diabetics’ blood sugar levels and used to play pitch and toss against the wall at lunchtime.

ThePoker Farm makes no claim as to the accuracy of these stories. * However, we believe that the author was in a position to know about what he is writing, and so present his story unfiltered.*

Doesn't really give me that warm and fuzzy this is 100% accurate!

The whole story seems pretty wtf at first, but then again, these are the same people that somehow thought they could get away with just making up tens of millions of dollars out of nowhere. Hope they rot in prison.

"This basically meant that players were free-rolling with FTP money."

Well there was no money to begin with, it was more like monopoly money.

Wow, that was terribly written and it really seems fake.

All in all, a pretty awful article imo.

Just seems like FTP bashing since none of this is new to anyone following the story.

If FTP had all this money...why the hell did they have horrible customer service? Certainly they could of hired a few more people with all this money they were throwing around?

Ummm yeah, all that article has in it is a collection of the best rumors/comments made through the FTP threads without the context, exaggerated in parts and put together in a terrible way.

In terms of how well written this article is, this former employee has just collectively put down some interesting stories. He doesn't claim to be a writer i any sense. We have just published the piece without editing it.

Lastly, the name MR Feft is obviously a level, not because the article is a level just because he wanted to remain anonymous.

yes we have no problem with that if the writer is happy to do so, not sure why that would make anything gospel. Noah can get in touch with us if he likes.
