Also, cheating is hard on a variety of levels and when you run into guys who are really good it they will sort of Peter Principle themselves and end up getting caught by some nerd on 2p2.

It’s there, I just very much doubt it’s rampant.

WhatWonder:

I do business with him, been around a while seems fair.

BigHal:

Been around poker scene forever. Mason knows him personally.

I think some guy named Sunny?

I don’t have any more feedback for you, but I would feel okay doing business with anyone who is allowed to offer services in this thread. Be wary of anyone PMing you offers, you can always ask an agent for more % down the road.

Nothing stops them running away of course. It's play money sites with an underground (often illegal) "trust" system to swap play money chips for real money.

They can run away with everything as soon as they want. But some agents trust morals /long term profit over short term gain.

There’s also the potential fear of reprisal. I’m not going to get on a plane to track down an agent who jacked 25% of my hypothetical five figure roll but I certainly know of people who would if both of preceding numbers were big enough.

It is rampant in Asian apps but not pokerbros at least not yet. I agree with you that it would be better if it is American only.

Lived in Vegas for over five years and played nearly every day at the Bellagio, not quite sure if I agree with your assessment. As a matter of fact, it wasn’t until I moved to Los Angeles that I encountered angle shooting and shockingly the cardrooms in LA are full of people from said countries.

As a North American player I have zero interest in allowing in Western European players access. First off, some of you guys are really smart and ambitious and the ones that aren’t will play 20bb stacks all day instead of working at die frabric.

The bigger US PokerBros unions already have bans in place for certain Eastern European and Asian countries. Wouldn't be surprised if in the future we see a US only PokerBros players union.

So I was grinding last night (Sunday) and it got late - 2am EST Monday morning. I noticed on my agent page that the Total fee moved over from This week to Last week - same with total winnings.

I kept playing but noticed that This week Total Fee and Total winnings were not calculating. I must of played for an hour before I noticed, but it still said I have 0 winnings and 0 fee for this week even though I played for a while.


Any way I can export that game data into the Agent Admin or is it not worth it - Or better yet will it fix itself?

(If this doesn't fix - and you are a player on rakeback - your agent will not know the rake generated from you if you play from the time the week gets rolled over to a new rakeback week - if that sounds complicated I can try and clarify it)

It's based on when the table opened I believe. It's why a lot of unions will force close all the tables at some point on Sunday morning.

hey guys, how do you buy diamonds on the app? when i go to store, it just says there's no sale going on right now, and there's no other option to buy diamonds for timebank. what gives?



Edit - Nvm figured it out. You have to just do it on your phone it seems instead of an emulator.

For those who only need small amounts of diamonds, you can also win them with free daily spins. It took me awhile for me to find this, but definitely saves money for just a casual player who needs time banks once in awhile.

Jackpot is added into the rake of hand histories is a possible reason.

If the table was started before midnight, all data from that table will go on the previous days data. Even if that table doesn’t end until 6am. It all rolls backwards.
