I never got that email, I just read your blog and I saw that this happened and was like 'man, that's messed up' so I went ahead and fixed that. Anyway, you mind if I have a marketing director come talk to you?" He also offered to give me a free seat in the 200k guaranteed and I told him not to bother because I'm not going to play it. Anyway, account's unlocked now.

This is getting overlooked. The UB rep didn't know what happened until he saw FWF's blog? Really, UB? Really?

If I remember right, me and a buddy were in half and half. Doing like $50 and $100 flips. We were down like $400. DaEvils asked if we were rolled for this and we said yes, but neither of us was rolled for this. Not sure the proper BR management for flips is... but anways, he offered to do one last one for double or nothing, we agreed, won, and broke even.

(From UB blog)

Quote:

His mega-crazy win did not go unnoticed. Nope, he was being watched by the eye in the sky, virtually speaking. The lucky Blackjack streak immediately caught the attention of UltimateBet's security team who had been watching MikeVickIsGod's play from the moment he parked his chips on the felt. Upon discovering the possibility of an unfair advantage, play was suspended temporarily and an investigation was immediately opened.

Quote:

UltimateBet's security team monitors play at all UltimateBet tables 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year, in an effort to protect every player from playing against those with an unfair advantage at online poker, online blackjack and UltimateBet's other games.

This is all ridiculous.. but how can you play online blackjack or UltimateBet's other games without being up against an unfair advantage? Perhaps UB's advantage is "fair".

"Don't worry, sir, we monitor all our games 365 days a year, 24/7 to make sure you don't have an advantage. You have the right to invariably lose all your money and we will protect this right vigorously!"

They stop you because you're on a heater, never let the casino know when you're on a heater otherwise they'll refuse to take your bets!

It must be so nice to be 'poker-famous' enough that UB actually give a **** what happens to your account! Had that been myself or another unknown I'm sure we'd still be awaiting an answer. You should use your poker-superpowers to destroy those criminals & make sure that the many many people who read your blog hate UB & know just how unbelievably blatant they are in their attempt to destroy online gambling.

God it was a funny story, then UB step into the picture & I'm all angry now
