you shouldn't ever have any more money than necessary online at any given time...between hacking/gov't seizures/etc you need to be safe rather than sorry

i think i was right before. i should have just ****ing quit. (and probably killed myself.)

Is 'government seizure' really that big of a concern you think?

It already happened, US govt (NY Dept. of Justice) seized a processor account and our money. The poker sites luckily ended up writing it off as a loss and giving us all our money back at their expense ($30,000,000)

I had like 3800 seized. Also don't forget about the neteller fiasco.

who the hell if ''needfood''?? i was 4tabling plo hu, then this guy come to my tables, i 8table plo and nl for a while, then i closed my plo tables to focus vs this guy (who i suspect is god since he ran like god) and boooom, after a ton of suckouts he leaves... wtf
anyone know who is this ******ad?

as far as i can tell from searching you aren't close to the first person tilted by needfood.

lol i remember needfood from 6max. he was a multitabler - definitely a grinder. funny he's playing HU now. he was so easy to tilt, though i don't know what he's like now.

He did the same thing to me. He came pretty tilted to play vs me at 2/4. I 2-tabled him and after a few hands I was about 4-5 BIs up. After a while he started running like god and I ended up like 6BIs down to him. After that he ran ofc...

fact: urubu means vulture in portuguese

does anyone not run like god vs you

Yeah, I remember reading about that. It just seems likely that, were it too happen again, the sites would eat the costs again. I just can't foresee FT/PS going "sorry guys, your money got seized. Your SOL".

i also run hot, but its rarely. my max is win 30 x 70. its hard for me hit that big suckout 5% x 95%.

also, posting this HH above to see if i get more action lol. yo regs, i am ******ad!!!!!!

@stream, what vulture means?

btwwwwwwww, i am sooooooo frustated. played 3,5k hands today, after all i finished 1,2k up, which is terrible since this money is all from fliping vs a reg. damn god, 3,5k hands and breakeven... terrible day.

im going to flip for my entire roll tonight and then quit poker regardless of the outcome

zomg... i want to watch... do it against urubu imo

edit: oh and why would you want to do that?

mods should hold him to this or ban

Hi, does anybody know who BROCKELSNARR on Stars is? He is pretty new on Stars and crushed me on nl2k HU today. Who the hell is he?!

Hey HUcash regs, any of you know good coaches for 50/100nl saying i'm just starting out? I need a coach who plays a very aggressive game and can help me adjust from FR to HU.

Urubu,

if you don't stop flipping I'm going to track you down and slap you across the face.

Your friend,
citanul

Yeah they didn't do it because they are making a ton of money and don't want to pull out of the US market so doing that would be suicide. But if the DOJ made another large seizure and FTP/Stars decided that the cost of doing business in the US was too high there is a chance they might decide not to bite another 30-50 million dollar bullet.

some donk

It's english for urubu.
